The Undead, Part 8
Regular price: £18.99
Summary
Howie and his group have been lured into a false sense of security by Marcy but are rescued by Dave. Does Marcy escape?
Maddox and his crew turn up to join forces with Howie, and we are introduced to Paula, an accountant who was working late when the infection came and was subjected to a horrific sexual assault, against which she fought back. And we follow Roy, an Olympic standard archer and hypochondriac.
The day escalates to a climactic battle, with swarms of the undead trapping and dividing the survivors at the top of an old car park.

Editing issue but still great!
Any additional comments?
This feels like it's been rushed through a bit. As mentioned already there's some repeating which I thought was just me but a few more instances of background noise, narrator coughing and strange pauses made me realise this has been poorly edited in places.
None of that stopped me from enjoying this, it's still a brilliant series and I'm just about to start the next, can't get enough!
I hope the issue gets sorted by the time I come back and re listen to them and I hope it doesn't spoil the series for anyone!

You would think....
... I would be bored by now, but far from it, still going strong ! I love how Haywood Ingratiates the new characters so quickly in this book with especially the quirky Roy that has had me laughing out loud.
Dan Morgan one of best narrators I've listened too, you can tell who is talking with just the slightest turn of tone or pitch.
Didn't think I'd still be listening at part 8 with such enjoyment. Especially not even blanching at the price tag each time in my rush to download.
There was one book that I struggled with and didn't think I was going to bother carrying on but glad I did.
Looking forward to what the new direction will be now...

This series is fantastic!
Would you listen to The Undead, Part 8 again? Why?
I have and would listen again. The characters are pure and relatable I find this rare in any kind of horror/zombie book.
What other book might you compare The Undead, Part 8 to, and why?
nothing compares to this...in a good way.
Which character – as performed by Dan Morgan – was your favourite?
cookie is brilliant, I have said it before and I will say it again 'bantz' ain't ma thang... but cookie is the exception.
Any additional comments?
Mr Haywood certainly has a bond with his characters and the series should not to be missed.

Requires further editing!!!!!
There are some repetition incidents and stumbling by the reader, not the usual quality I have come to expect from the series. The story is as good as ever but the presentation is not. Hopefully this will be fixed at source and when I come to listen again they will be fixed.

Indescribable
Such another good day from RR Haywood. It keeps getting better and better. With every part you fall more and more in love with Cookey and Blowers. Nick and Clarence. Dave and Mr Howie. The addition of more characters would seem daunting but you come to love them as well. Dan Morgan is as good as ever reading the books. If anything he makes listening to the books more enjoyable.

My favourite audible series
Without a doubt my favourite series. The narration is superb and the story keeps you gripped from start to finish. Only bad point. I've got to wait for ages for the next instalment.

As always pure class and escapism from Mr Haywood

Absolutely, the characterization is so good that we care deeply for them. I dont know anyone else who can get to the core of what makes us human than Mr Haywood
Who was your favorite character and why?
Paula, stands out in this one.
If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Cripes if i could write a tag line to do this book justice i would, i cant so i wont attempt it.
Any additional comments?
I dont know any other series of books i would be happy to never see come to a conclusion

Addictive...
I hate it when I discover a great new series and Audible hasn't caught up to the books. Don't start this series because I don't want you to suffer the agony of waiting for the next installment. The story is horrifying, funny, and heart wrenching. The narration is on point. I am warning you. You will become addicted.

Can't get enough of Howie, Dave, and their crew!
I love audiobooks and listen to many. This series is my favorite! The narrator does such an amazing job bringing these characters to life. The author has clearly defined the characters in a manner that makes you not only know them but love them too. These books take me through a whole range of emotions....I've laughed, I've cried, and I've gasped aloud many times. I feel as if I am right there with Howie, Dave, and the whole lot of them. (I'm American and I just wanted to speak like them!) It takes a very talented author to draw me in as R.R. Haywood has done. I am DYING to listen to Part 9! Please, Audible, release it soon!!

Great book
Any additional comments?
As usual, this book deserves 5 stars in all categories. We meet two new characters, Paula and Roy. They make a great addition to the story. Both of them are very interesting people - Haywood has a great talent for creating interesting and likable characters. Paula is very smart and a good planner of traps for zombies. Roy is a hypochondriac who is uncanny good with a bow and arrow.
Marcy and the pretty girls try to pull a fast one on Howie and the lads. Dave cannot be seduced so he must save the weaker guys. Maddox and his boys come to join up with Howie and his people. There is another epic battle at the end of this book. It takes place at a car park and Howie is in big trouble. There is a part in this book about zombies going in concentric circles. Remember that because about nine or ten books later you will find out what caused the circling by the zombies.
Dan Morgan is one of the best narrators in the business. I love to listen to him bring Howie, Dave and the rest of the Living Army to life for me.

NEEDS BETTER AUDIO EDITORS. GOOD BOOK THOUGH.
THE MOST AUDIO AUDIO MISTAKES I HAVE EVER HEARD IN A SINGLE BOOK.
But, if you like the other books in this series, you'll like this one.

Loved It
If you've heard the other books and have fallen in love with them, this one is no different.
New people were introduced, and they blend in very well.
It's freakin awesome
