Story
Months into the apocalypse, the zombies show no signs of dying, but it's clear everyone in Sunset Park will die without enough food to outlast the undead. Add in the less-than-sociable new neighbors only blocks away, and the hunt for sustenance has come to feel more like a race than a ramble. Sylvie is happy in her new home with the people who've become like family, though she's still working out how to let them into her heart. Eric wants in, and he wants to find his sister, but he can't do both at the same time.

Cassie Forrest isn't surprised to learn that the day she’s decided to get her life together is also the day the world ends. After all, she’s been on a self-imposed losing streak since her survivalist parents died: she’s stopped painting, broken off her engagement to Adrian and dated a real jerk. Rectifying her mistakes has to wait, however, because Cassie and her friends have just enough time to escape Brooklyn for her parents’ cabin before Bornavirus LX turns them into zombies, too.

Summary
From the universe of the Until the End of the World series. (Note: The City Series can be heard before or after the Until the End of the World series)
Sylvie Rossi has the loner thing down pat, with the exception of her best friend, Grace. But when the two are trapped in a hospital during the last gasp of a dying city, alone time is no longer an option. A nurse's offer of sanctuary promises Sylvie the supplies she needs to survive the zombies - it's the coexisting with people that might do her in.
Eric Forrest will do whatever it takes to get into the dead city for his sister, including ending up dead himself. He's used to taking risks, but with every mile he travels death looks likelier and likelier, and finding his sister may be his only prospect for survival - if he can make it home.
Sylvie doesn't need more than food, water, and shelter. Eric wants only to find his sister. But sometimes what we think we need isn't what we need at all, and what we find is more than we expected.

Pure Zombie Joy!
I love Sarah Lyons Flemings's other books she wrote about the Zombie Apocalypse and I was so thrilled when I found out that she wrote about Eric's and Maria's journey. (You don't have to read the other books before, to understand the story.) Fleming brings the characters alive and there's never a dull moment. Its funny, full of action and very addictive! I can't wait for the next books in this new series!

Amazing! Can't recommend highly enough!!
It's been so cool to see what happened to the other side of Cassie's family!
I was slightly worried that the city wouldn't live up to the excellence of the 'end of the world ' trilogy but I needn't have worried as this book was just as good! The characters are fantastic and I think she should never stop writing these stories! I could listen forever. The narrators are fantastic as well!
Please hurry with the next one, I'm starting to get withdrawal lol!

So Excited
I wondered if I would love them as much as Cassie and her friends adventures and stuggles out of NY. Could it stand up to perfection that is Until the End of the World.... answer? Yes and then some. Eric, Cassie's brother is as loveable and ballsy as her and the gathering of characters are as well put together and weather you love them or hate them you can't deny Sarah Lyons Fleming a master at creating them. A fantastic firsts book of In the City Series again fast paced action packed filled with emotion and thought provoking situations that remind me that it's not the dead today I fear... it's the living!

Feel Good Zombie Apocalypse
I was excited to find Sarah Lyons Fleming had released another book in the Until the End realm. I loved the first series and have listened to it multiple times. I must admit I love this book more than any of the three in the original trilogy and novella.
I love how real these characters were, how SLF made them loveable even with their flaws. Sylvie's and Grace's friendship is enviable. The humor between them and Sylvie and Eric is perfect. I never thought a post apocalyptic book could make me laugh out loud so many times, as well as feel fear or sadness.
This book has joined my top 5 books of all times. SLF has a real gift for words. I can't wait for the next book.

Feel Good Zombie Stories!
Any additional comments?
Loved it! If you are new to this author, stop! Check out her trilogy + novella, Until The End of The World. Mordacious is a spin off of that series. It is not essential that you read Until the End of the World first to enjoy this book, but I recommend you do.
Do you like zombie / survival stories – but hate to get bogged down with endless tragedy and after tragedy? I love apocalyptic novels, but I am often turned off by plots that take the reader down a dark hole (evil humans, society at its worst, characters spending the entire book trying to find a way out of a hopeless and ugly scenarios). While Fleming’s novels include all these elements, her books center on the dynamics of the survival group. The plot is centered on her characters, their struggles, and growth – that happen to be in the middle of a zombie apocalypse.
Fleming wrote the first “Feel Good” Zombie story I have ever read – and it was such a breath of fresh air! That is, when my heart wasn’t racing from fearing for my beloved characters well being and safety.
Narration: I am a narrator snob. I have loved Luke Daniels since “The Druid” series… he does a fine job here. I am new to Therese and thought she was a little better fit for the character she’s playing. The story is told from two points of view, so that is why we get a male and female narrator. When the two characters are together, the narrators get to play off each other, the narration really shines. I saw one negative review of the narration and I honestly don’t know what they are talking about. The narration is great.
Can't wait for the next installment!

I can't even begin to explain how happy I was to find out this was Eric's journey. I wondered many times what happened to him while listening to The End of the World series. In the beginning I wasn't sure how I was going to like these characters. Sylvia has mommy issues and she can be very self-deprecating. But she quickly grew on me. I really enjoyed the City aspect of this book, knowing how they would manage in NYC was really different from the other part of this world. Eric was a great characters from the beginning, I love how he just coasts along making his was into NYC. He is a great hero. I also love how such different groups of people find a way to help each other in this book. The details of the city travel is awesome, I felt like I was in the ruins of New York with these characters when they were trying to make their way from place to place.
The narration is great. Therese Plummer is always awesome and so is Luke Daniels but hearing them in duet style was perfect!!!!

It's like the book is split into two parts.
At first, "Mordacious" starts off as the average zombie scenario. In fact, deja vu might occur with all of the familiarity. The character personalities, survival situations, tools they use, settings, and internal struggles can be found in other similar material. Halfway through the book, however, things start to shift gears into something that involves a lot more emotional drama. It's pretty much a different audiobook after that point as the entire tone and pacing of the story changes. Zombies randomly fade into the background as relationships happen, couples ogle, emotions are repeatedly developed and discussed, and psychologically is extensively explored.
Therese Plummer and Luke Daniels were an outstanding team to voice this audiobook. Both have terrific range and get the emotions across for every written scene perfectly. This alone makes the audiobook worth it, despite the story itself being a touch predictable in areas.
The story is set mostly in New York and split between the first person perspectives of two characters; Sylvie and Eric. Sylvie being the main character for most of the story. An interesting character with mild social anxieties, Sylvie is as interesting as she is uptight because she is constantly worried about what others are thinking of her while attempting to deal with stresses that come with a zombie apocalypse. Eric is survivor searching for his family and has a bit of a fatalistic sense of humor.
This book is recommended to listeners who enjoy romance with a toe dipped in survival horror. If you are expecting more traditional zombie thrills, then the first half of the book is for you. If you are expecting a book that has romance and dramatic discussion, then the second half of the book is for you.

Harlequin Zombies?
Any additional comments?
I really enjoyed her first series with Cassie and friends, and while I liked finding out what happened to her brother there was way too little zombie action and way too much romantic angst. This seemed like a book written for a harlequin romance series with a bit of zombies thrown in. The main female character was just too stereotypical 'nobody can ever love me'. Perhaps having Terese Plummer queen of romantic narration didn't help with that feeling. I will continue the series because I want to find out if they ever meet up with Cassie.

Love this series, can't wait until Book 2
I like Zombie books, but I'm kind of picky. It gets monotonous when there's blood, gore and eating of human flesh, 24-7-365. So when I found a free book download on Audible, So long Lollipops.....I found nirvana. I plowed through the "Until the End of the World" series and was saddened when I discovered that series was finished. That's when I got desperate and plugged in Sarah Lyons Fleming's name into Audible and found Mordacious....Yahoo! I hit the mother lode! Now, I'm finished with that one and I'll have to wait until the next of "The City Series" comes out:-( Can you tell that I'm in love with this series. Oh well, I'll have to placate myself with some other meaningless books until the next comes out.

This book was so satisfying!
What made the experience of listening to Mordacious the most enjoyable?
I previously read it before I listened to the audiobook. I think I enjoyed reading it better, but I still loved listening to it.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Sylvie and Eric were probably tied. They are both so funny and witty and i obviously love what's happening between them. Sylvie isn't afraid to stand up for herself and her friends. She doesn't realize the impact that she has on people. She thinks she isn't worth anyone's friendship, but she doesn't realize that anyone she meets loves her. Eric gets her. Knows when to push her and when to back off. He gives her time to adjust to him and he respects her personality traits.
Have you listened to any of Luke Daniels and Therese Plummer ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Sarah has a way with words. She could write the dictionary and I would still listen to it all in one sitting.
Any additional comments?
If you haven't read the prequel series to this, you are missing out. It's called "Until the End of the World" and it has three books. They are so phenomenal. I have re listened and re read probably a dozen times. Do yourself a favor ;) This series is setting up to be the same. I love her writing. And her plot twists.

Love story with a couple zombies
I decided to check this book out because I loved "Until The End Of The World" and thought id follow the author. I was pretty disappointed with this one tho. This is pretty much a love story with some zombies here and there. Zombies take a back seat to this love story about a woman with self deprecation issues. I know a zombie book in itself is unrealistic, but the main characters internal whiny and self critical/defensive asshole dialogue is just painful at times. Zombies are an afterthought as she is always "all in her feelings" about everything except zombies in the most annoying way possible! Some very lame unrealistic decision making at times for a zombie apocalypse from the main characters. Pretty much an attempt to make all the leaders in the book female of different archetypes, which I really dont mind, but they were kind of lame!
Performance was great tho. I love how the male characters where with a male voice, and female characters had female voices. They did a great job, just the main woman freaking out and whining a lot was kind of annoying but the character was done well.
In the end! I learned if there is a collapse and the water runs out, check the water heater cause its still full when the sinks stop working

maybe it's just me
but, the female reader's inflections make it sound as if she is having a nervous breakdown. she sounds fine when she is doing a scene where the female characters are speaking to someone else . it's when she is doing internal dialogue that her inflection makes me feel like her character is a wreck. Not a normal wreck in relation to what is happening in the story but a full fledged, all out ticking time bomb, over the top, crazy person regardless of the subject. From eating soup to killing zombies. same amount of crazy.

I have listened....
I have listened this series Starting with Cassie's Journey & all she went through!! I was excited to find this book about her brother Eric & his Journey! I can't wait for the next book to come out!! Even though this series has new narrators they did an amazing job! In a way I'm glad Sarah Lyons Fleming switched narrators for this series! DON'T GET ME WRONG THE OTHER NARRATOR WAS JUST AS AMAZING but I like her voices for Cassie, Nelly, Penny, Anna & Peter as well as all the other Characters for that series! So it's good to have new narrators for Eric & his group!
