Have You Ever Heard Zombie Reviews?

While I was busy running writing books, my beloved book fans were writing book reviews.

Here’s one:

Sep 11, 2018

Lirio Marchito rated it liked it

I received a free copy of this book in return for an honest review.

Apart from being called a zombie in the office, because I used to work too long till my eyes turned red and legs felt so tired they often moved like a dead-man-walking, I have never had much proximity to zombies or zombie-hero-stories. I have watched a few movies where zombies were always portrayed as creepy and villainous. So I always associated them with the gory horror films or novels. Having always read only the stereotyped versions of a zombie, Andy Zach’s fun and humorous take on zombies came as a laughter riot to me.

Diane Newby, ‘the undead mother-in-law’ reminded me of many minority rights activists in my country, but unlike them, she is strong- physically and mentally, doesn’t victimize herself but is a true, witty heroine. She became a zombie by accident but instead of looking at it with terror or grief; she learns to enjoy the fun and positive aspects of it: being dead-proof, aging-proof, and disease-proof! She fights against the stigma associated with ‘zombification’ and advocates the use of zombie blood to cure elderly and disabled people. She is not alone in her pursuits but is helped by her husband George, son Don and his wife Maggie (also zombies). Through her son-in-law Ron Yardley’s blog she is introduced to Sam and Lisa Melvin, editors of Midley Beacon, a one-stop online newspaper for zombie news. Through them, she is taken to the battle fronts to fight national catastrophes like zombie turkeys, corgis etc.

First Review Second Part

Apart from the fun narration of an unlikely-to-ever-happen-story, I also enjoyed some other aspects of this book. One was the clever use of excerpts from Ron Yardley’s blog in the narration. It worked really well for striking home a point or an emotion. I also enjoyed the antagonist and his versatile use of latest technology weapons, whether it is cyborgs, controlling chips or hyperloops. I also loved the references to real life people like Elon Musk, Obamas or Trump.

I wish the author good luck with all his works. Interested readers can find out more about the author and his books at andyzach.net Happy reading

New Reviews Third Part

And here’s the next:

“The book cover is perfect! The story is a creative, funny & unique parody of the “zombie” genre. Don’t read it if you have no sense of humor or hate zombie books. I wasn’t rolling on the floor laughing, but definitely giggling in places in between some good action scenes. If you like Mel Brooks or Monty Python movies, you probably have the right sense of humor for this book.”

Next, for a chuckle, try this cartoon.

Got Any More Books?

Indeedy do! The third book in the Life After Life Chronicles, my humorous zombie books set in our modern society has the working title Paranormal Privateers.

Research topics I covered for the next book were Somali piracy and letters of marque. Did you know the last letter of marque was issued in 1815 for the ship the Grand Turk, to be used against the Barbary pirates? It was never used since the second Barbary pirate war ended.

Free Zombie Turkeys book
3 Days Only — Color picture of US 16th President Lincoln. He almost issued a letter of marque.

Then later on President Lincoln thought of using them against the Confederacy but didn’t. The Confederacy, however, issued letters of marque against the Union.

Finally, Ron Paul introduced bills for letters of marque against Al-Qaida in 2001 and 2007. In 2010, a Navy lawyer researched the plausibility of letters of marque against modern pirates and concluded it was a good idea.

Fun zombie read! I love paranormal and supernatural books so I was intrigued to read this series. I’ve listened to it on audible and the narrators are really fun and easy to listen to, I feel like they’re talking to actual people rather than reading a story. The storyline is funny and it has just gotten better with each book in the series.

Excellent!

Great story. Really hilarious in a ridiculous way and I don’t mean that in a negative way. I love this story! Amazing author and an amazingly well done performance.

My Undead Mother-in-law Excerpt

Sam arrived at the Deviled Turkeys farm in the dark winter
evening. Sam could see the National Guard trucks and a
couple of police cars along the snowy drive to the barnyard.
They had distracted the flock of perhaps a thousand turkeys
from attacking the house and were now barely holding their
own position.

Sam heard the BANG of shotguns, and the pop, pop of
rifles and pistols. Why did the police waste their time and
ammunition? Those weapons proved ineffective against the
zombie turkeys last November.

Grabbing his trusty Flaming Turkey brand flamethrower
from the backseat, he approached the line of soldiers.

“Stay away, mister!” an officer yelled over the crackle of
gunfire.
Sam noticed he had a skinny neck and a shock of red hair.

“You should have a flamethrower!” Sam yelled back.

“We do! We can’t use them this close to the buildings.
There’s a family in there!”

Good thing Lisa isn’t here, Sam thought. During the zombie
turkey apocalypse, she’d flamed first and asked questions
later.

Another car pulled up in the drive. The officer yelled, “Get
away, ma’am! This is a dangerous situation!”

“I’ve come to reason with the turkeys,” Diane Newby yelled
back, her red eyes gleaming.

“You can’t reason with crazed killer turkeys!”

“You watch me!” She leapt past the officer, past the line of
soldiers, directly toward the mass of turkeys. The soldiers
ceased firing, for fear of hitting her. The mass of turkeys
washed over Diane like a tsunami. Sam reluctantly filmed her
last moments, for her family’s sake.

The mound of turkeys burst apart, revealing Diane
throttling a tom. She ripped off its head, legs, wings and then
smashed the body into paste on the ground.

“Listen up, you turkeys!” she yelled. “I’m the boss turkey
now! Follow me!” Obediently, the turkeys followed her into the
barn. She led them back into their cages and shut them in.
Where the turkeys had burst doors and wire fencing, using her
bare hands Diane wove the tough steel wire into a tight net,
holding them securely. “Good thing I’m handy with macramé,”
she said to herself as she wove.

Diane’s clothing was shredded and bloody like she’d been
through a wood chipper, but her skin showed pink and
unbroken through the many holes in her pants and coat. Sam
ran to her.

“Are you OK, Diane?”

“Never felt better! I told you I could reason with the zombie
turkeys!”

“How did you find out?”

“It was on the zombie turkey Twitter feed on the Midley
Beacon page, where I was reading your story about us!”
