Here's an update: I'm working hard on finishing my next one (I have several in the works - which is part of the reason why I've not released anything else yet. I'll NEVER do that again...) So hang tight, and thanks for the awesome comments and ratings! I just gotta get my wife to quit popping out kids. Those things take a lot of time! Thanks!

It has everything, zombies, hot alien babes, corrupt police, redneck and teen humour. The author reads the story well using voices that make it extra amusing. I want to follow the story and find out what happens to the characters. When I get to the end of a good book it is like losing a friend and it will be like that when I get to the end of this story.

It's actually a trick question - the music was purchased through a royalty-free production music site. It's not something you can find on iTunes, unfortunately (though if they were smart, they'd make it available there too...) I'll email you with the info. Sandi – thanks!

It took me about 1/3 to 1/2 of the book to really get into the story. Some of the "What is going on" seemed for me to go on a bit long, but once it got going I was hooked. The narration was good with the exception of a couple of voices I found a little whiney/annoying. Maybe 10% of the time language was used it seemed to be unnecessary and didn't really add anything to the story. Great ending!!! If this were a movie I could see Elvira hosting this on one of her Specials!!! The story is well done and entertaining! It took me about 1/3 to 1/2 of the book to really get into the story.

It's one of only a couple of podcasts I've given to friends that every single person has loved it. It has something for everyone. You can't help but laugh out loud. It's great.

For one, you don't have to look at them and they are notoriously bad actors. And in audio, thank goodness, they don't get that much air time. Humor is another thing. i avoid it because most of it falls flat or is too slap stick obvious. I prefer satire. But this book was really a surprising hoot. It might look like slapstick but I could hardly wait to hear more of those clever little one liners at a rapid fire pace. Very well crafted... and the narration itself is quite a performance. You can't help but love these redneck boys! They're just so much fun. Very entertaining. I would love to hear more. How about it? I admit to liking Zombie audio stories.

I have listened to lots and lots of audiobooks (sci-fi) from podiobooks.com. Normally horror / zombie stories do not appeal to me but the way your story was promoted on podiobooks.com, I thought I would give it a go. When you talk about writing the story like a movie in your head, wow, that was the way I was listening to it! I could actually visualise the story just like a movie – that’s why I think it would be great if it got picked up. Not all books that I listen to give me such a clear visual in my head, you have a great talent for descriptions. I will be looking out for any sequels. Regards, Robin Hi John,

I couldnt wait to hear what happened in each episode. All the time I was listening I was thinking what a fun movie this would make. (I really hope it gets picked up as a movie). Cant say enough good things about it. This book really cheered me up. Hope you have a sequel coming. Robin. Great funny story. I couldnt wait to hear what happened in each episode.

It was a subtle poke at stereotypes?, intelligently funny and wonderfully adventurous. I could not wait to hear each episode. I hope to hear/read many more such stories from Allen!

I realize that maybe that's just how you read normally, but it was a bit much for someone trying to enjoy the story.

I loved the story within the first minutes of listening to it. I couldn't wait to see what happened and often would stay up late into the night, just to listen to the next chapter. I can't wait to see what else this author writes. I'll be on the first to download it. I highly recommend this book. Excellent book! I loved the story within the first minutes of listening to it.

The story was light hearted and interesting with fun characters. My only negative feelings were that I felt the last few chapters felt a bit hurried with a sort of odd wrap up or epilogue. But I would recommend this book. I thought this audiobook was very well done and highly entertaining. The story was light hearted and interesting with fun characters.
