Surprisingly good.

Seemed like a storyline that would appeal more to young adults at first but I was pleasantly surprised. Much of the zombie genre deals with the relationships between people and the daily threats that survivors face. This is always more interesting to me than made up scientific explanations to how some virus was made or how to come up with a cure. This one is even parts post apocalypse interactions with other people and survival/fighting with no silly made up scientific lab crap.

A fun zombie tale

A fun zombie read full of action, interesting characters and an interesting plot line. The book is the first in a series but does a good job of wrapping up the story so it doesn’t make you feel like you have to keep going, but you’ll want to. The main character Zach is a good guy, and definitely wise beyond his young years. The story follows the first year after the zombie apocalypse which has him running in an out of trouble. It doesn’t add anything to the genre but if you’re looking for a good zombie tale I would recommend “Zombie Rules”.

Mr. Halstead does a good job with the narration, I like his characters but his pace is just a bit slow, but not too bad.

Meh

It wasn't bad, very cliché. The main character is a know it all, all of a sudden he is a scientist, a hardcore survivor, a swat specialist, a professional planner, a builder l, and a hell of a fighter.
That said, I'm a zombie fan, and this book was a good listen in between better books. I may even buy the second book in the series.

Rules are good, but....

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

You need to listen to this because it is funny and it make you think you could make it to if you knew the right people during a Zombie outbreak. Well i don't know those people yet so i need to find them and become friends with them.

Absolutely awesome

This series was the most attention grabbing, I loved this series. I recommend sharing this book series to your friends and family.

not what I was expecting

the book was not what I was expecting. I was expecting it to be more focused on rules of the zombie survival but I still enjoyed it will listen again

OMG SO REAL!

Zach really brings this book ALIVE! He's like a ZOMBIE survivor book L🤣L! I L💓VE THIS BOOK!

Excellent Zombie Story

Good story and character development. I’m looking forward to the next chapter. Give it a shot.

Story

Love it! Can’t stop listening to these books, I am addicted! Started on book 3 on accident and now going on to book 2 and I’m really excited to get to book 4!

It was a good first shot at the genre

Where does Zombie Rules: Zombie Rules, Book 1 rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It would be in the top 20 I guess. Plot moved along quickly. Less about killing zombies and gruesome descriptions than about actual survival. Zombies seem more like a catalyst than a main focus. If you liked 28 Days you'll like how the story is set up.

What other book might you compare Zombie Rules: Zombie Rules, Book 1 to and why?

28 Days and Walking Dead

What does Graham Halstead bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Good character separation.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Tough to say without giving spoilers.

Any additional comments?

I say it's a good first shot at the genre because there's a lot of potential here. If the first book was good enough to keep me interested then I'm excited for the next book and see what lessons the author learned from this one.
