Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher
"Narrator Michael Kramer delivers a pitch-perfect performance. His voice is low and weary, his tone thoroughly creepy. With deliberate pacing, the narrator takes his time with the story—-heightening the book's tension in a way that will make listeners squirm. Among the many zombie audiobooks published in recent years, this one manages to stand out from the pack." —-Publishers Weekly Starred Audio Review
Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Flesh Eaters and Dead - Joe McKinney
“Wayne Simmons is the bare knuckle boxer of the zombie genre. He hits hard, and he's absolutely relentless.”
bestselling author of Hater and Autumn - David Moody
“There’s an uncomfortable realism to Flu. You might want to invest in an oxygen tent and a year’s supply of facemasks before you start reading!”

    Hooked till I finished!

    I first listened to this book (chapters 38-40) on sirius xm and LOVED it. Made that hour of the trip fly by! You'd think with how overdone the zombie genre is these days, I'd care less, but this book really makes you think, worry, wonder??? And then you start caring about the characters and before you know it, you are purchasing "Fever". Love the Irish cursing. "#%&$ all..." LOL.
