Chihuahuas of the Zombie Apocalypse

Resumen del Editor

The end of the world looks a whole lot different when you’re eight inches tall.

Cheech and Daisy are small, spoiled and cute. Unfortunately, spoiled and cute are overrated when a pack of flesh-eating creepers are closing in fast and chasing you through the streets. Being small? Well, that might help.

A pair of seasoned Army Rangers, a teenaged Latina, a deranged serial killer, and two lost Chihuahuas come together to match wits and battle a city full of the undead.

Oh, and be forewarned: This ain’t no cutesy Beverly Hills Chihuahua-type story. It’s a straight forward, blood and guts, in-your-face post-apocalyptic zombie tale.

Fans of Steven L. Hawk's Peace Warrior Trilogy will recognize the military action and fast-paced style that made those books so well-received. In this book, a pair of highly trained Army Rangers are joined by a new type of hero: four-pound Chihuahuas.

Good story about the zombie apocalypse

I enjoyed the story, but the aspect with the dogs gave it a little bit of a twist versus other zombie apocalypse books Ive listened to. I prefer a human reading the story. This was the first book. I’ve listened to with an AI narrator, and there were times you could definitely tell it was a robot and not an actual human reading based on the cadence of their sentences or the way, they said certain words thathave two ways to pronounce them depending on the usage in the sentence. However, the overall story I very much enjoyed.

Loved learning about the apocalypse through the dog’s eyes

This was a surprisingly good book. Fun, heartfelt and adventurous. It made me root for the small docs and the small dogs mini owners / guardians.
It reminded me a  bit of the book black beauty. Try this book it’s worth your time

Chihuahuas and zombies a winning combo!!!

Love the story, I wish there was more lol The robot narrator was something else lol

Best Zombie Apocalypse POV Ever

Having portions of the narrative be from the POV of a pair of tiny dogs is brilliant. Add to it some very likeable characters and a fairly realistic plot line and you have a fun, scary, zombie tale that outshines so many others in this sub-genre. I was born and raised in Boise and my sister still lives there in a walled community just like the ones discussed in the story. She even has a little bitty dog who is definitely the embodiment of Cheech. I recognized many of the locations mentioned and that added a lot of vividness to the mental movie playing in my head as I listened. Do be warned that this book is narrated by Virtual Voice which is a computer generated voice. It's not too bad most of the time, but there are instances of mispronunciations and inappropriate tonal inflections which can yank you out of the story and remind you that you're listening to an audiobook.

AI narration was terrible. Everything else was great.

Great story, terrible AI narration. Pay to have a real
Person, it’s worth it. Thanks

Like a live voice better

Loved the story. Didn’t care for the virtual voice. It lacks the “human” expressions greatly. I will stay away from the audiobooks that have this. Other than that, great story.

Happy ending.

The dogs were my favorite. I also like how the story ended. Not everything has to end sad.

Great book!

I wasn’t sure what to think at first but I was drawn in on chapter 1. I loved the idea of the dogs point of view and them being as much a character as the people. Fun and yet creepy. Thanks!

cheech

cool fun story would love to see more with a human narrator. the writing will have the listener worried for the characters

Dog gone good story

The chihuahuas had their own apocalypse story, twist and turns. 2 stories in one book. kept me wanting to read.
