Zombie Oasis

Still Alive, Book 4

By: Javan Bonds

Narrated by: S.W. Salzman

Mo Collins is surviving the zombie apocalypse, but it hasn’t been easy. So far he has gathered himself a group of misfits, and one monkey, to help carve out an island paradise in the middle of a world turned blue and ravenous by an unknown plague.

Mo’s home, the Viva Ancora, a replica pirate ship, is filling up with a list of characters that would make George Romero proud. Along with the guidance of Smokes, his personal Oracle and direct link to what seems to be a scripted reality, he has saved his parents, broken his perfect brother and future sister-in-law out of prison, fought off a crazed military wannabe dictator and survived a plane crash. All in the same day!

So now that things seem under control on Guntersville Island you would think maybe life could begin to take on some sense of normalcy and he could settle down with his girl and live out his life on this island oasis. Guess again. Life just isn’t meant to be easy when you seem to be the hero of a predestined movie script.

So hang on! The ride is about to get wilder and travel into uncharted territory. Next plot point of this movie: A cure? (Saw that one coming didn’t you?) New faces? New adventures? New villains? Does it ever end? Mo the reluctant hero can’t help being just that, The Hero.

So here we are again on that same Alabama lake, where the fish bite, the zombies bite...and sometimes life bites.

Welcome ashore, friend, to Zombie Oasis.

Better and better

This series is amazing. It takes a little getting used to. It’s one of the few Zompox books that doesn’t take itself too seriously and causes you to laugh out loud. The saga continues.

Humor and zombies what could be better

I laugh so much when listening to this series. There's the right mix of thrills and laughs. My favorite zombie series!! Hoping Javan keeps the series going on and on and on and....

5 out of 5 stars

I love it. a hit out of the park I can't wait to keep listening.

Zombie Oasis

If you had told me a year ago that I would be listening to a book full of blue peevies/bluenatics (blue zombies), crude and politically incorrect dialogue, and references to nerdy pop culture, I would have laughed. Instead, I am laughing myself silly listening to another great addition to this great series!

Javan Bonds has taken zombies to another level in his "Still Alive" series. This is definitely a NSFW (not safe for work) book. If you try to listen in the company of others, be prepared have your sanity questioned. There are plenty of LOL moments, but there are also some poignant parts as protagonists discover the fate of loved ones.

I love all of the references to comic book characters, horror and sci-fi movies and TV shows. The characters are great and I can really relate to most of them. Be warned: if you are easily offended by cursing, blue peevie poop, political incorrectness or graphic violence involving numerous body parts, don't try these books. But, if you love the zombie genre and you are looking for a fresh take, give it a try.

Mr. Salzman's narration continues to define Mr. Bonds' characters. When I read the "real" version of these books, I hear his voices in my head. His characterization of Mo, Smokes, and friends is amazing and really adds a lot to the enjoyment of these books. I really can't imagine anybody else narrating these books.

I just hope that Mr. Bonds has many more books waiting in his amazing imagination because anytime that I want LOL entertainment along with a great Zompoc story, I know that this series will be just the right one to grab! I was given the chance to listen to the audiobook version of this book by the author/narrator and chose to review it.

Oasis Book 4 - Another Thrilling Mo Adventure

In Oasis we continue the exhilarating journey with Mo and his cast of protagonist. We are introduced to more new characters, some have potential to be main characters while others may be a foe in disguise. Love the hysterical journal entries and the fact that other characters are telling their stories via journals as well. Can't wait to listen to their adventure in looking for a cure!
