Narration Supposing Books The End Has Come and Gone (Zombie Fallout #4)
STILL A GOOD STORY...HOWEVER......it's noted that the story of Mike Talbot and his family is starting to drag on a bit. Here's why: most of book four was told as flash backs and back stories, not enough moving the story forward. Don't get me wrong, I'm still invested, if for no other reason than to finally have an acceptable end to this nightmare or at least a reasonable hope of a new normal for the Talbot family, their friends and all of humanity.
I'm beginning to have issues with the repetitive phrasing and use of words. I know there are many ways to describe body fluids other than viscus, even if he is describing fluid coming from the heart, liver or intestines. Also, saying "Ya think?" every time a statement is made to the obvious, get's old.
Another issue is the author having to explain repeatedly what is obvious to the reader, for example: 'Are all you Talbots programmed in Smart ass?" BT said with exasperation. The fact that Mark used exasperation and keeps doing that during the dialogue get's cumbersome for the listener.
There is still a lot of action, but I think to have an eight book arc is a bit much for this story. I'm currently on book 5, Alive In A Dead World and so far, it's no different than book 4. I have a strong hunch the rest of the series will be much of the same fodder.
Zombie Fallout should have been 1 or 3 books at the most and then I think, Mark should have go on to other stories, even sidetracking off other memorable characters.
I'm still in for the long haul like I said, but I wish the story had ended with book 3 and gone out on top instead of they way it's ending up which is mired in unoriginality.
Three solid stars because the the first 3 books make you want to finish the entire 8 book series!

Read Kindle version 6/19/2013. Just listened to it via audio book. Rating remains the same.This is a post-apocolyptic zombie/vampire masterpiece. And, no, the vampires are not of the glittery variety. I finished this book with the full expectation that I would be able to go into book 5. I am so disappointed that I will have to wait. Oh such is the world of the e-book. Instant gratification of a continued saga will not be immediately met this time around. I have travelled this far down the rabbit hole and am not quite ready to leave wonderland just yet. Oh how books 5 and 6 can not get
I listened to the book through Audible and I LOVE THIS SERIES!!! I love meeting the rest of the Talbots and thus far BT is my fave character. As a Black person I am so glad he has not died yet! I started the series a week ago on Audible and I am hooked. Mike drives me crazy at times and I am just waiting for Tracy to beat him with a tire iron.
I'm a little irritated because I just found out this series has quite a few more installments. I'm hooked enough to want to find out what happens to Talbot, but am getting tired of neverending series too.
WHAT CAN I SAY? I JUST KEEP LOVING THESE BOOKS THE MORE I READ THEM. I AM GETTING READY TO ORDER THE LAST IN THIS SERIES AND THE BEGINNING OF A NEW SERIES WITH THE MAIN CHARACTER (MIKE) FROM THIS SERIES IN IT. I HOPE MARK KEEPS THESE BOOKS GOING FOR AS LONG AS POSSIBLE! I LOVE THESE CHARACTERS SO MUCH AND THEY ARE SO DAMN FUNNY I CAN'T STAND IT.OH I'M ALSO PICKING UP MARK'S ZOMBIE DOG BOOK.. I WILL LEAVE THAT ONE TO THE IMAGINATION OR FOR YOU TO LOOK FOR YOURSELF :)
Zombie Fallout 4 is quite possibly the best in the series so far. Many of the loose threads were explained away. The best part was the non-stop humor though. Mark Tufo truly does understand the sarcastic nature that is bred into people from Massachusetts. I must say the ending was a bit of a letdown, but overall this was a highly entertaining read. Now if only Eliza and Tomas can find their end.
I was torn between 3 and 4 stars. Given I'll likely not continue on with the series, I'm going to give it 3.While I like the overall story, the splinters of subplots are starting to get very convoluted to the point where I wonder if it's worth continuing on with the series. It seems, that with all of these background subplots on Eliza and the Talbot's, preexisting to the Zombie Fallout itself, it is a bit much. Sure they are entertaining, but again, there are just so many. And now with the big
