Just plain fun

Revisado: 03-26-15

Where does Omega Rising rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I liked this book; actually the entire series is awesome. This is just fun to read (listen); the characters become real, I find myself laughing out loud at times over their antics and personalities. This book is not going to change your life or provide profound meaning to your view of the world; it will entertain you and make you care about the characters. I wish Audible would publish all seven books, I'd buy them all at once and have a listening marathon. Did I mention that I have read the kindle versions of these and bought the audio version as well? I like something to take my mind off of running and this book more than did the job. Enjoy.

What did you like best about this story?

It holds your attention from beginning to end. It makes you laugh and leaves you wanting more.

Have you listened to any of Paul Heitsch’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

nope

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

For those of you that liked Guardians of the Galaxy, you ain't seen nothing yet!

The Zombie cover-up

Revisado: 10-30-14

Would you consider the audio edition of The Dying of the Light: End to be better than the print version?

Yes, it was much more gripping.

What did you like best about this story?

The idea that the government knows of zombies and have been fighting them for decades was new and refreshing.

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

At times the reader sounded like someone reading and not comfortable doing it, wooden or monotone.

Any additional comments?

Most zombie books are the same old line, world ends and people trying to survive. This book is refreshing in that the government knew about zombies and has been fighting them and trying to maintain the secret while preparing for the day when the isolated outbreaks became unmanageable and the end finally came. This was a new twist that I really enjoyed.

A fun Zombie Book

Revisado: 10-30-14

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

This is the second book in a series titled The Dying of the light. You pick up where the first book ended with our heroes surviving after the collapse of modern society. The difference from most other zombie books is that in this series the government knew of zombies for many years prior to the global outbreak and had been preparing. You follow a team of specialist as they survive in underground shelters and try to wait out the zombies before emerging to rebuild our world. As you would expect things do not go as planned. I really like the book(s) and highly recommend them. I also want to mention the author, Jason Kristopher; Jason is very involved with his readers. This communication with the author adds to the experience as Jason provides hints of upcoming additions and insights into his characters.

What other book might you compare The Dying of the Light: Interval to and why?

The dying of the light: End.
This is the first in the series and a must read.

Did Andrew McFerrin do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

He did OK, at times he sounded wooden.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Zombies - the biggest government cover-up in history.
