It used to be true that "dead men tell no tales". But Zimm Industries has changed that, forever. Dr. Thaddeus Zimm has come up with a way to bring the dead back long enough for them to tell their stories, and the story the authorities most want to hear is how they died. Who did it, why did they do it, and did they happen to mention where they might be going next?

How grand and epic the world feels
Which scene was your favorite?

Any additional comments?
I was on the verge of giving up on this book. I just wasn't interested in the characters, I'm not sure if it's because there's two authors or not. I just didn't care what happened to them. But half way through it all flipped and I'm so glad I stuck with it.

The explosive conclusion to the Newsflesh trilogy from New York Times best seller Mira Grant - a saga of zombies, geeks, politics, social media, and the virus that runs through them all. The year was 2014. The year we cured cancer. The year we cured the common cold. And the year the dead started to walk. The year of the Rising. The year was 2039. The world didn't end when the zombies came, it just got worse. Georgia and Shaun Mason set out on the biggest story of their generation.

Shaun Mason is a man without a mission. Not even running the news organization he built with his sister has the same urgency as it used to. Playing with dead things just doesn't seem as fun when you've lost as much as he has. But when a CDC researcher fakes her own death and appears on his doorstep with a ravenous pack of zombies in tow, Shaun has a newfound interest in life. Because she brings news—he may have put down the monster who attacked them, but the conspiracy is far from dead. Now, Shaun hits the road to find what truth can be found at the end of a shotgun.

Feed is an electrifying and critically acclaimed novel of a world a half-step from our own that the New York Times calls “Astonishing” a novel of zombies, geeks, politics, social media, and the virus that runs through them all - from New York Times best seller Mira Grant. The year was 2014. We had cured cancer. We had beat the common cold. But in doing so we created something new, something terrible that no one could stop. The infection spread, virus blocks taking over bodies and minds with one, unstoppable command: Feed.

Locked behind bars for three years, Shadow did his time, quietly waiting for the day when he could return to Eagle Point, Indiana. A man no longer scared of what tomorrow might bring, all he wanted was to be with Laura, the wife he deeply loved, and start a new life. But just days before his release, Laura and Shadow's best friend are killed in an accident. With his life in pieces and nothing to keep him tethered, Shadow accepts a job from a beguiling stranger he meets on the way home, an enigmatic man who calls himself Mr. Wednesday.

Uninteresting but cool concept
Revisado: 02-28-14
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
fewer one-off stories that don't help move the story
Has American Gods: The Tenth Anniversary Edition (A Full Cast Production) turned you off from other books in this genre?
Not at all
Which character – as performed by the narrators – was your favorite?
Matt Sweeney
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
The voice acting was incredible
Any additional comments?
I'm normally a Neil Gaiman fan, and conceptually this is a really interesting idea for a story. There's just way too much wandering in the story telling. I get that when you create a world that's different from the real world you need to tell stories about the world so the reader understands the "rules". However, there's too many stories about the world that don't pertain the main story. Overall, just too much unimportant minutia.
