Korte biografie
Glynn is a writer of Dark Fantasy novels, born in Wellingborough, England in 1972. He hasn't managed to escape from there yet.

He has an obsession with anything to do with zombies, Cthulhu Mythos and post-apocalyptic fiction and films that began when he started reading HP Lovecraft and Richard Matherson's "I Am Legend" back when he was eight years old.

This fourteen book series is thrill, after gut-punching thrill, and provided me with over one-hundred-thirty-four hours of listening pleasure. I laughed, cried and had several "Heck Yeah," moments. Most of the characters are explained in-depthly, offering a flashback into their flaws and their warped perspectives, as the zombies evolve and eat up the world. But I really do get sick of Anglo-Saxon authors describing Africa and other countries in less than flattering terms, despite the fact that it has been Europeans who ruined most of these locations. I mean, if you're going to call a country and all it's people bad names, at least acknowledge how they got that way - I digress!

The story begins a few years into the apocalypse, thus, we are thrown into the action of tier-one, special-ops, trying, and often failing to carry out a series of last-ditch efforts to save the last pocket of humanity, even as that slice of civilization is being gobbled-up, by a new breed of dead-heads that can think, and possess super-human abilities.

I appreciate the consistency of all the books being narrated by the same gentleman, with his soothing, animated voice (I hate when publishers switch narrators, mid-series). I would have liked more books that dive into the rebuilding process, but I am more than satisfied with the kindness of the author, of not leaving us hanging, and wondering how things turned out, as he took us all the way to the end of the fight for their very existence...SMILE!!!

PS:
If you dig strong females, you will love this series!

I was given a complimentary copy of the book for review. I must say it was quite original I don't believe I have ever read anything quite like it before.
A man awakens in a strange place, isn't even sure if he is indoors or out, or how he came to be there. No food, no water, and strange creatures the likes of which have never been seen anywhere else. Very original and imaginative. I was pleased to learn there will be more to come, since this is the first book in a series.

Imagine a book where every character has the world's worst case of short mans syndrome. Imagine a world filled with nothing but cliches. Imagine a story where nothing happens but random scenes of violence that neither impacts the characters or the world. Now you don't need to read this awful, awful book.
