surprisingly good

Revisado: 07-18-24

Really good understanding of horror/suspense by the author. Great ambience and no fluff/politics. Really hope to see more from the author. Narrator is a little monotone, but does a good job.

Still got it

Revisado: 01-23-24

The first Thor spinoff was good, but didn't blow my socks off. This one had plenty of action and could've been two or even three books if they wanted to expand on some things. I'm glad they didn't go cheap and split it up over multiple installments. Renewed my interest in the series.

about 14 hours of politics

Revisado: 11-22-23

Wendig is a talented writer and he had a decent novel concept for this book, but its just packed to the gills with more political pandering I've ever seen. it disrupts and detracts from the story when 2/3s of the book is just contemporary political garbage. would not recommend.

Don't know where to start

Revisado: 06-29-23

Mild spoilers.
I found this book wildly frustrating after the first two chapters or so. Narrator did a good job, but thats pretty much the only positive thing I have to say. The horror aspect of the book takes a backseat to the MCs race and sexuality, which is not what I look for in a horror/zombie novel. Pretty early on, an adult character gives an 8 year old boy a live grenade, which made less sense than the zombie plague in the first place. It's just all of the overdone cliches from the genre wrapped up into one book with a side of virtue signaling.

Little is a one trick pony

Revisado: 06-27-23

I've listened to quite a few of Little's books, but this is going to be the last. I think he writes well for the most part and comes up with some cool concepts (some work, some don't) and his books aren't bad, but he can't seem to write a book without shoehorning politics and race baiting into it. Maybe I'm in the minority here and most people don't mind eating every meal with a side of "white guilt", but it breaks the immersion and I think he could write better books without using racism as a crutch or throwing in some thinly veiled politics (when theres a veil at all) for some cheap confirmation bias thrills. Aside from all that, the pace is sporadic, but overall too slow. Something horrific and world-changing will occur and then the next thing you know, they've moved back to bland dialogue and forgotten about that life-altering thing. Pretty frustrating.

Falls flat

Revisado: 06-15-23

I thought this sounded like a cool/fun concept, but it didn't deliver. A bunch of covid and political garbage is stuffed in there, which is never a great choice. Pretty disappointed considering that I've enjoyed some of Little's other books

I don't get it

Revisado: 04-03-23

There are a lot of things that are overdone in the post-apocalyptic genre and this series hits on all of them. A lot of terms are overused to the point that I believe the repetition is some type of passive aggressive slight against the reader. You can only say "Billy drawled" (referring to a verbal statement by Billy) one or two times before it gets weird, but it doesn't make sense for someone to "drawl" in a life or death situation even once. I think the series is a cool idea, but the dialog could have been better executed and the story in general could be less repetitive. I don't know why I've listened so far into this series.

Great addition to a great series

Revisado: 02-27-23

Big fan of the series. Great story, action, detail and performance by Grant. Less digression than other installments, but digression is an important and well-executed part of this series (and Cole's writing in general, apparently). Two thumbs up, more please.

Great addition to the series

Revisado: 07-22-22

I thought this was a great addition to the series. Fuchs is arguably one of the best in the genre, if not the best. I will say that it didn't quite grab me like the main series did, but the main series scratched every itch I had as well as some itches I didn't know about. Idk how Fuchs got out, but someone needs to lock him back in the basement so I can have more.
