Zombie Boxed Set #1

Zombie Maelstrom and Zombie Necropolis

For the first time anywhere, Bryan Cassiday's complete unabridged editions of "Zombie Maelstrom" and "Zombie Necropolis, " books 1 and 2, respectively, in the Chad Halverson zombie apocalypse series, are together under one cover. Two complete books at one low price. In "Zombie Maelstrom" National Clandestine Service black ops agent Chad Halverson crash-lands in Los Angeles to find a world he doesn't recognize. In "Zombie Necropolis" Halverson flees Los Angeles to the ocean, trying to escape the plague-infected zombie hordes that are running amok spreading death and destruction across the land. Praise for Bryan Cassiday's Zombie Books: "Written with the epic scope of 'World War Z' and infused with the gritty spook works derring-do of a Robert Ludlum spy thriller, 'Sanctuary in Steel' is full of zombie mayhem through and through."--Joe McKinney, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of "Dead City" "Cassiday blends thoughtful suspense and pulse-pounding terror to deliver a novel with both bite and creeping dread."--David Dunwoody, author of "The Harvest Cycle"

Couldn’t Listen Due to Terrible Narrator

I didn’t listen to the story after about an hour, which is a shame because I truly enjoy zombie fiction - even marginal zombie fiction. So my rating is NOT based on the story. I don’t have enough information to do so.

I am cautiously optimistic about Virtual Voice, having rated it well in other books. However, I realized after listening to this book for an hour, that the other books were non-fiction. They didn’t call for distinguishing voices or reading emotionally (happy, sad, excited, etc.). And that is the limitation of the Virtual Voice at this stage - it cannot play rolls and it cannot go beyond flat and boring reading.

Hopefully this gets read or redone by an improved Virtual Voice or a human author because I would really like to listen to it.
