The Undead: Part 11

By: RR Haywood

Narrated by: Joe Jameson

A Message from The Author

Writing The Undead is a humbling experience. I am eternally grateful to the readers and listeners for the incredible support you always show.

Dan Morgan superbly narrated Parts 1 to 10, but unfortunately he was not able to continue. To my delight, the wonderfully talented Joe Jameson has now taken the series on. His range and skills are superb.

I am aware of the feedback about the voice of one of my characters, Dave. If this change has upset your listening experience then I can only apologise, but both Joe and I, and everyone at Audible, have listened to the points you made and take them very seriously. It is a wonderful thing to have such responsive fans, so willing to listen and work to make it better, plus the interactive nature of the series means you the listener can speak out and say what you like and don't like, otherwise how would we know?

We've got some cracking days ahead of us. Some real stonking rip-roaring storylines to come and both Joe and I can only hope you'll stay with us on this journey.

Take care,

RR Haywood.

It is the morning after the storm. Thick fog covers everything. In the stifling, claustrophobic atmosphere, Howie and his group head out for supplies.

Skirmishes and tense fights take place and there are messages left in blood at key sites: 'he's coming'. As the day progresses, Howie becomes increasingly darker in thought, and more demanding of his team. By the end of the day they have discovered a munitions factory, but can Howie hold it together?

I miss Dan Morgan!!!!!

Any additional comments?

It is very difficult to rate this book for me. The story itself is superb as usual, but listening to the new narrator after 10 books with Dan Morgan makes me want to just read the next book instead. I feel like Joe is a good narrator, but just not for this series. His voice for Dave alone was just simply horrible. Dave is my favorite character, and Joe makes him sound like a total moron, which Dave certainly is not. So I may be returning book 12 and reading the print version. If there is anyway it can be done, please bring Dan back.

The new reader…

The new voice is just hard to listen too… after getting use to the previous reader these new voices sound like British Gangsters or Prepubesent teens.

Love this Series

It took a while to get used to the new reader but the book is still amazing

Change in Narrator was a disappointment

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

I really liked Dan Morgan the original narrator. Mr. Jameson did ok, but I really disliked the way he played Dave. He made him sound slow, possibly mentally challenged. To be fair to Mr. Jameson, it would be tough to replace a narrator who completed 10 books. The listener grows attached to the characters being portrayed a certain way. However, that does not change the fact that I would prefer the original narrator in the series on future books.

NEW NARRATOR :(

How did the narrator detract from the book?

10 books and a novella in, and they change narrators. The previous narrator, Dan Morgan, did an EXELENT job. The new guy, not so much. I guess I’m being a little severe, but I HATE when a book series changes narrators. I only gave him 2 stars, but he is at least 3 stars. The story is about the same quality as the previous ones.
