Summary
A vampire in Zombieland.
You wouldn't like Coburn. People don't, as a rule; he's not a nice man. And that's okay, because he doesn't like people much either. People are food. You see, Coburn's a vampire, and has been for close on a century.
Five years ago, Coburn went to sleep - wasn't exactly planned - and he's just woken up to find most everybody in the world dead. And not cool, interesting dead like him; oh, no. Coburn looks basically human, and these guys...really don't. He likes blood, and they like flesh. He's smart; them, not so much. But they outnumber him by about a million to one, and their clotted blood cannot sustain him. Now he's starving, and on the run, and more pissed-off than a beestung rattlesnake. The vampire has to find blood, soon, and - like it or not - he's gonna have to keep an eye on the frail flesh-bags he finds it in. Time for the wolf to turn shepherd. No, Coburn doesn't like people. But he's gonna have to learn to.
The Complete Double Dead collects Chuck Wendig's first novel and the follow-up novella, Bad Blood. Follow Coburn as he runs a gauntlet of supermarket cannibals, juggalos, super-zombies, and a ketamine-trip cult of zombie-worshipping New Age weirdos. It's a road that'll take him right back to himself, and onto the trail of his own vampiric sire. And on the way, he'll become something entirely new.

Good background noise
All of the characters are sort of meh, the story is boring in a lot of places, the narrator's voice can be irritating when not voicing the main character, in fact the main character is the best thing about this one, but he's mostly used for comic relief. overall it's not a great listen.

Great listen
Really enjoyed this one. Deep enough to be enthralled, but simple enough to be a light read

Unlike any other in this genre
Loved the story and the narrator- exceptional from start to finish. Highly recommend! It was never predictable, kept my on my toes and it was gut-wrenching, hilarious, nerve-wracking, tear-jerking and so very entertaining. The narrator was amazing, between his accents and change of tone for each character, the realistic speech and punctuation and even amping up to suit the narrative as needed, I was literally hanging on his every word! Completely original and like nothing else I've read in this genre, and believe me there have been hundreds. Very cool ideas and unique take on the outbreak of the virus which was refreshing. This will go down as the best book I've listened to this year, maybe ever, and what a pleasant surprise that it was free through the plus catalogue or else I may never have stumbled across it. I'm certain I'll revisit this in the future and would recommend to anyone who's a fan of apocalyptic, zombie, vampire or in fact action novels.

One of them books that, just have it all! Narrator - one of the best I've listened to. The way it's written is superb. The author has a magic formula, so will be following for more. Thanks chuck
