The Apocalypse Fugitives

The Undead World, Book 4

By: Peter Meredith

Narrated by: Basil Sands

Beaten and battered in mind and body, the fugitives limp west, unaware that the human world is fading all around them, unaware that the last remnants of the goodness of man is being ground under the heel of evil at every turn. When confronted with that evil, fight or flight are their only choices, however, Neil's small group is hamstrung, forced to take on more refugees who come to them empty-handed, unarmed, and hungry. Neil is faced with the disturbing prospect of guiding them across 2,000 miles of zombie-plagued land, only to stumble at his first hurdle: the mighty Mississippi has become a river of death and, like the fabled River Styx, the only way to pass is to pay the river man his fee. His price: warm bodies.

Same story line

This is where I'm taking a break in the series. I actually already own the next 2 books, but it's been the very same story line since book 2. Someone gets kidnapped or is held hostage and the others have to save him or her. It's the same story over and over. In this book, someone gets kidnapped, they're rescued. Then others are kidnapped and they have to be rescued. Then yet again, more are kidnapped and they must be rescued. Then the book ends as one group is rescued, but the others are AGAIN held hostage. (There were so many kidnapping and rescues that I honestly lost count) You have to get the next book to see how the current hostages are rescued. At this point, I just don't care.
If Grey is the new Ram, give him some cajones and stop letting him wither every time the main bad guy tells him "if you don't give yourself up, I'll kill everyone." The whole "let's go talk to the bad guy and even though he's a slaver, torturer, rapist, sells babies to pedophiles, etc., I'm sure he'll be honest and keep his word........oh, he lied to us last time and took us hostage to torture us, but this time he'll keep his word and not capture us.......oh shucks, he took us hostage again and we escaped, but THIS TIME he'll keep his word, so let's go back and discuss this with him again" story line is just STUPID.
Oh, and there's very very little zombie action in this book.
Narrator did a superb job, as always.
And lastly, I love the new female character. I hope she sticks around.

I love this series!!!

Can't wait for the next volume!!! Hope it never ends, patiently waiting for next book

2nd time around

there's no other zombie series around that is as good as this. Peter Meredith is amazing along with Basil Sands narrating.

Great characters and plot

I have listen to this series 3 times now and I enjoy it each and every time I find new things in it I think Peter Meredith has created some of the most interesting characters in not just zombie or apocalypse, but any novel in any category. If you purchase and listen to the first book in the undead series, I believe you will want. You will need to go through all of them. You won’t want to miss a thing five stars all the way. One more thing about this series is that each book isn’t for five hours long they’re good bowl substantial novels. Did you get your moneys worth? Thank you.

BEST ZOMBIE SERIES , GREAT CHARACTERS, GREAT STORY,FANTASTIC VOICE ACTOR

Ever since I bought this series, I’ve listened to a ton of Zombie Books. There our around 20 great series, Peter Meredith has written at least 3 of them. GENERATION Z is excellent if you love Jilly Bean, Jilly is an adult in Gen z ,She is a Doctor, super smart, great adventure, New characters. It’s really good, in the future people are more superstitious, Neal is also in Gen Z. Most Of Peter Meredith’s books are Great.
