In this prequel to the apocalyptic horror series, an overnight gig turns into a nightmare when zombies start coming for blood.

After a long day on the job, house painter Gus Berry is looking forward to relaxing and spending some time with his girlfriend before returning to work the next day. But none of that is going to happen.

Gus’s coworker Benny has found them a painting gig at the local Mollymart East, and it has to be done by morning. If Gus and his crew can complete the work on time, it could mean huge business with a major grocery store chain.

But as Gus and his fellow painters are about to discover, the much-anticipated zombie apocalypse doesn’t start with a bang; it starts on a Monday. And barricading themselves inside a megastore isn’t the end—it’s only the beginning . . .

When I reached the end of the Mountain Man series it was a bittersweet moment. I'd reached the end of the story of one of the most real-feeling characters of this rather crowded genre. I'd walked with the Mountain Man and his companions through many adventures and like most I felt like I had a friend in Gus. For the most part he was just an ordinary guy doing his kind of best to cope with his world being torn apart and infested with zombies with all the horror that brings.

The slightly odd thing about the original series was that by the time we start with Gus the zombie apocalypse has done its worst and we meet a character who is already through the shock phase and is well into the longer term mental and physical effects of being one of the few survivors.

This new book gives us a chance to walk with Gus again. A slightly younger and less jaundiced Gus but still very much Gus! We get a healthy helping of great Gusisms and lots of Blackmore's trademark zombie horror and pointed dialogue. Gus treats us frequently to his own brand of the coarse male crudeness that we all love him for and naturally with the voice of RC Bray (who else?) bringing it to us all feels right in Gus's dystopian world.

It's a chance to walk with the Mountain Man once more and fill in some of the blanks from the original series. Thanks Mr Blackmore!

Another Chance to Walk With the Mountain Man!

Welcome addition to the series. As easy a listen as anything, which says a lot considering the setting. Unfortunately it ends all too soon ...

If you love zombie apocalypses then this series if perfect for you these books are amazing to listen to and as someone who works at a Covid site for 13 hours a day they have saved my sanity and the narrator is spot on perfect.

Must listen for any zombie apocalypse fans.

Blackmore’s Mountain Man series gets its prequel written in the same fantastic way the rest of the series is.
Gus is back only this tells the start of his journey thru his nightmare end in a nerve shredding climax with a steady dose of humour and tension leading to his Union with his old friends the Captain and Uncle Jack.
Narrated by the best in the business in RC Bray I cannot recommend this book and the rest of this series highly enough, thoroughly addictive leaving you needing more n more!!
