ABR's original Deadland’s Harvest audiobook review and many others can be found at Audiobook Reviewer. 100 days ago, zombies consumed most of the living population with the exception of pockets of survivors. Like with most zombie books, there are bandits and evil humans who prey on those not yet eaten by the wandering zombies. Supplies are scarce; trust is even scarcer. Cash, Klutch and Jayse are the main characters that discover there are herds of zombies – tens of thousands – headed straight toward their home in Fox National Park. In a leap of faith, a fellow colony of survivors is contacted and they generously share the broken and abandoned barges and other boats in their area. The downside is the group must repair them, stock them and move their colony there in under two weeks. Although their plans are set and they have contingency plans – Aukes throws in several twists that have the listener cautioning the characters knowing that things are not as they seem (nothing like yelling “don’t go in there” while driving solo in a car!). Aukes does an excellent job of bringing in the seven deadly sins and using the zombies and their situation to demonstrate them. Well written, character developments were strong and made one gasp when their situation was revealed. I was confused for a few minutes – it was not apparent, as I did not read book 1) that the zombie apocalypse occurred 100 days ago – so I was struggling to figure out why there were so many shortages. One example of Aukes clever writing and playing on emotions – she has a 10 year old boy with downs syndrome talking down a vengeful father hell bent on revenge. In his innocence, he prevents bloodshed. Hollie Jackson narrated the book; she did an excellent job with voices and reading concisely. Her energy level helped keep the realness present. There were no production issues. Love zombies? Love to root for the underdog? This story has it all – highly recommend this audiobook! Audiobook provided for review by the author. Survival after the zombie outbreak continues for Cash, Crutch, Jase, and Camp Fox. How will the zombies continue to react? How will the humans survive? Can hope be found in a chaotic world? A vivid, action packed narrative leads characters and readers through daily and long term turmoils, goals, and relationships. Characters are authentic for their reality, caring, passionate, continue to develop, and manage to maintain a sense of humor. Overall, a fun read. no reviews | add a review

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It just goes to show the uncertainty of how the world can turn on anybody at any given time. I was glad to see that some of the people from Camp Fox did survive the bandits firing upon the Humvee. I sure hope that they can find a new place to set up a new camp and that they will drive in this uncertainty of zombies and Bandits.. I do look forward to reading the next installment. ( )
