Attack of the Killer Zombie Turkeys

I reviewed a copy of the audiobook from the author in exchange for my honest review, and here it is. The first book read/ listen from Andy Zach, and I’m totally hooked. can’t wait to hear/ RAF the remaining series. the storyline is very entertaining, and the way they perform (yes perform not read) the book was perfect. Love the sound effects, they just made the story come to life. This story had it all, from killer zombies, love, mystery, and action. it’s a must-read/ hear. I totally recommended it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Chapter Book
Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2020
A story about special needs kids becoming superpowered while still having their special needs. Unique and fast-paced. I love how this is written so children can read and understand it, without complicated themes, yet still placing social prejudices and situations within the storyline. I enjoyed the story very much. Still, I felt that some of the surprises could have used a little more introduction or at least hints beforehand, but it does not take away from the story of friendship and the strong message that everyone is gifted differently. Recommended.

Your Second Day of the Virtual Blog Tour

Today we begin with Dab of Darkness blog and my first blog book review! Plus other stuff.

Meet Andy Zach

Next, read this wonderful review for you:

There’s so much awesome stuff happening in this book! I really enjoyed the story, especially the backbone of it. Each of these kids (Jeremy, Dan, Kayla, and Aubrey) has their own disability and when Jeremy stumbles upon a way to give each of them a super power, they still have to deal with real life. The super power doesn’t take away or negate their disability but it does give them an edge. Plus, they learn to work together as team, using their individual powers to boost each other. Just a fantastic premise for a story.

The story is definitely geared towards kids, as the plot is pretty straight forward and there’s little conflict among the characters. Our heroes already have a fight on their hands – just being accepted in regular society. In fact, the big hurdle in the book deals with that at their public school. I really liked how they pulled together to tackle the problem and how their efforts pulled in their friends, family, and community.

The end leaves us on a triumphant note as well as hinting as more to come. I hope this is just the start of a series. I think Jeremy needs to keep a close eye on his pet hamster. I kinda hope that hamster becomes the master mind. Ha! 5/5 stars.

Dab of Darkness: I received this audiobook as part of my participation in a blog tour with Audiobookworm Promotions. The tour is being sponsored by Andy Zach. The gifting of this audiobook did not affect my opinion of it.
