The narrator ruined one of my favorite books

I read these books years ago and loved them then, so when I came upon the audio version I was eager to listen. Unfortunately, the narrator’s delivery was disappointing. He holds out the words in a stop/start kind of way reminiscent of Captain Kirk. The lilt was so distracting that I lost track of the storyline and had to back track every few minutes. What’s interesting is that his voice sounded normal when reading dialog. I wish he had spoken like that throughout.

The writing is good. It’s easy to identify with the characters. I personally don’t think that zombie books should be considered Sci Fi. They’re more like horror in my opinion and I don’t find them entertaining.

I found the story to be quite juvenile. My mind would wander and I kept needing to back up to catch the plot. I made it to chapter 15 before I put it down. Perhaps it gets more captivating later on

Non-stop 10-year-old humor. Not funny, bathroom humor at its worst. If you are more than 12 years old, I highly recommend continuing your search for anything else

I found this book by looking for books narrated by Ray Porter. I’m not sure if it’s the way he reads or the stories he chooses but I have enjoyed every audio book that I’ve found with Ray Porter reading.
