About this listen

Dark, funny, and filled with suspense, Temperature: Dead and Rising by new author Adam Santo is a wildly creepy fantasy - and a corpse of a good time.

When Sally Mertill is driving a carload of her friends back to Green Mountain Falls after visiting Pike's Peak they careen off the side of the mountain road. With no guardrails, it's not surprising there are no survivors. And yet within two days, a not altogether bad fellow named Bocnic Drewings will call upon the metal drawer where Sally's body awaits autopsy, open it, and lead her on the adventure of a lifetime - well, that's if she would have survived the accident. The powers that be have chosen Sally to become undead and she's the only other person who's been given the power to raise the dead - and control them. When leaders of rival undead clans find out, they either want to control or destroy her, which makes Sally staying undead a bit of a challenge...

This is very much the genre that I prefer but I couldn't bring myself to finish this. There is nothing wrong with the reading. It does not sparkle but is perfectly competent. I found the writing to be poor and frankly a little juvenile. The main character was a bit "Mary Sue" for my taste.

I may have been the wrong reader for this book. I suspect that fans of Stephanie Meyer might find this book more appealing.

Not for me
