Story
The post-apocalyptic world isn't that bad. Sure, there are mutants. But, for the people of New Hope, daily life isn't so much a struggle of finding food or medicine as it is trying to find a new shortstop for their kickball team. This makes it difficult for a post-apocalyptic warrior to find work. Thankfully, an army full of killers is making its way to the peaceful town and plans to raze it to the ground. Only a fully trained post-apocalyptic nomadic warrior can stop them.

President West is in office. Power has shifted. And Space Force is defunded. With just a handful of us still living on base, we find ourselves being evicted.

Really good fun!
I’ve enjoyed Phil Thron’s narration on other authors’ work so that tempted me to try this and I am so glad I did. I don’t think I have ever chuckled so much listening to a book! It’s a great main trio of characters, and they way they interact is very entertaining and grounded - not everyone gets along after all, even in an apocalypse! The plot moves along at a good pace and even if you can see some of it coming it’s so well written that it doesn’t make it less entertaining. I did find it hard to distinguish between the character voices occasionally but better that than trying to make them too different and ending up hammy. I highly recommend this as a very entertaining few hours - it seemed to be pretty much just the right length - and ill definitely be getting more books by both the author and narrator.

These people's brains are located in their rectums
I couldn't make it past a quarter of this book, the characters obviously have a death wish, there is nothing relatable about them, they will argue about sports or the merits of inveto fertilisation while zombies are banging on the doors, they have no desire to save their lives or family's or friends, never have I wanted the zombies to win more than this abomination of a book. In short they have no sence of self preservation and don't act as an actual person would act in this situation. The only merit for this book is the narrator who gives an adequate performance Don't waste your time on this one, I wish I hadn't.

Always good for a laugh
Thoroughly enjoyed my time listening to this. Made me smile and laugh all the way to the end. Story is not something sensational, but it is fairly original in how tongue in cheek all of the humor is. In short (and in order to keep this review short and to the point), the story is as goofy and silly as Zombieland. It is also relatively clean (apart from an occasional shit), and could possibly make a good read for older kids. If you want something hardcore and serious, look elsewhere. If you want something crude, rude, sensual, and gory, don't touch this with a 39 and half foot pole. If you want to relax and build some smile creases, then this is a good listen for you. Benjamin Wallace has yet to disappointment me.

Absolutely Hillarious!
I really like the zombie apocalypse subgenre. I read the spectrum of them from the very serious to the spoofs and from the science-based virus-style infection to the supernatural cause. So it is with some authority that I state that this was one of the best zombie apocalypse novels I have ever read. It has a solid plot that would fit in nicely with any book in the genre (three men trying to reunite with their families as the world falls apart around them) but it’s the extraordinary level of humor that lifts this book to the top of the ladder. The novel opens with our three dads (John, Chris and Erik) at the bowling alley where they have been forced to join a league by the much-hated president of their Home Owners Association. The three men don’t appear to like each other very much and it’s fairly clear that at least one of them (John) probably isn’t liked by much of anyone. The laughs start early in the chapter and continue to the end of the book. The banter between these three men is superb as Wallace draws out each man’s very distinctive character. Forced to walk home because they’ve been drinking, the zombie apocalypse comes to unlife around them and they don’t notice. By morning, the world has gone to hell and our three dads are trying to figure out how to find their families and reconnect with them. Then the mistakes begin. In many of these novels the heroes are super smart and physically capable. They kill zombies better than Rambo. That does not describe our dads. John, especially, has an almost superhuman ability to do something stupid. And these blunders both add to the tension and create extraordinarily funny situations. Laugh out loud funny. Grab your sides funny. Rip yourself a new hernia funny. Get your eighteen-year-old son to start listening to the book with you funny. It’s that good. It also took me in directions I didn’t expect several times. Part of this is because John continually does such comically stupid things. But many are also just good plot twists. I was sorry when the book came to an end because I just wasn’t done listening to it yet. Fortunately, I see on Audible that Dads vs. the World is coming so the humor will continue. I received this book free from Audiobook Boom in exchange for an honest review.

The only zombie story I've ever enjoyed.
It's really more about the interaction of the main characters than the zombies. You probably know people just like these guys, which only makes it more amusing. And who doesn't feel this way about their HOA? There is really no gore here, just some neighbors who don't get along trying, in the most bumbling and way possible, to survive the apocalypse together because together is better than alone.

Another example of excellent writing, and excellent narration, across diverse genre to create an entertaining mix of humour and multi-fiction, that will entertain audendences of all ages! I love this combination of Benjamin Wallace & Phil Thron... the best combination since the Iron Druid series! I have all the books of both series, and I'm addicted to both... and anything like them!
