About this listen
For the first time, the Internet phenomenon is now in print! Beheading a zombie isn't easy in a world where you're more afraid of the living than the dead. Adrian Ring's simple life is thrown into chaos when the world is ripped apart by a plague of undead and legions of desperate survivors. Retreating to Auburn Lake Preparatory Academy, Adrian attempts to rescue friends and family on the way while dancing around his impending insanity over who and what he left behind, and evading maniac survivors. He saves his cat Otis, but shoots his mom. Pretty successful, all things considered.
Dark Recollections is the first part of Adrian's own story of how he survived after "That Day". Told through his eyes as he talks to his laptop, affectionately named 'Mr. Journal", and through short stories that entwine with his tales that bring forth dark visions of a world being eaten alive by an unimaginable evil. Adrian's Undead Diary is an eight-part epic about a solitary, guilt-stricken man who didn't think he deserved to live, but realized very soon that he survived and suffered for a reason. Dark Recollections is the first book in the AUD series. It covers Adrian's journal entries from September 21st 2010, to December 1st, 2010. Intermingled with his personal diary entries, book one also contains the short stories "Phil's Story", "McGreevy's Report", and "Soccer Mom".

Tesser, the dragon of life itself, is one of seven: Earth’s primordial draconic guardians, destined to oversee its development and safety. Species rose and fell, and 10,000 years ago...Tesser disappeared. The golden dragon woke up this morning, buried deep beneath the city of Boston, with no idea how he got there, and no idea how humanity grew so fast and learned so much while he was away. He is lost, a fish out of water. Where is the magic? He’s got a lot of catching up to do if he’s going to find his missing sister and stop an incursion of daemons from beyond the Veil.

It was just a random mutation - one of a billion that happen in viruses every day. But this one was different. It exploded out of Somalia and spread across the oceans before anybody thought to look up from their cell phones to see what was going on. The infected breathed the virus into the air around them, spreading it through the cities faster than anyone thought possible. Hospitals were overwhelmed. Police lines crumbled. Quarantine sites disintegrated. Cities started to collapse.

Story
Eric didn't ask to be a vampire. In fact he didn't even believe in them. Biting your own tongue with your fangs does a lot of convincing. Even so, being a part-time undead isn't as easy as you might think. It can let you hold down a day job, true, but sometimes the night "life" can be more than a little difficult, what with those bloodthirsty urges and predatory instincts kicking in.

In real time you are witness to the agony and the horror…and the terrible stupidity that made it all possible.

Story
For dinosaurs, it was a big rock. For humans: Coronal Mass Ejection (CME). When the Earth is hit by the greatest CME in recorded history (several times larger than the Carrington Event of 1859), the combined societies of the planet's most developed nations struggle to adapt to a life thrust back into the Dark Ages. In the United States, the military scrambles to speed the nation's recovery on multiple fronts including putting down riots, establishing relief camps, delivering medical aid, and bringing communication and travel back on line. Just as a real foothold is established in retaking the skies (utilizing existing commercial aircraft supplemented by military resources and ground control systems), a mysterious virus takes hold of the population, spreading globally over the very flight routes that the survivors fought so hard to rebuild.

Story
From zombie apocalypse to hard science fiction, urban fantasy to Lovecraftian gothic horror, Chris' writing surely offers you something to enjoy. New Worlds features several short stories; "The Mother in the Lake" (a Lovecraft-inspired tale told by a teenage girl about her family and their lake house), "Roots Grown Deep" (a dark fantasy story about a tree deep in the woods that hungers for far more than water and sun); and more.

Story
It was just a random mutation - one of a billion that happen in viruses every day. But this one was different. It exploded out of Somalia and spread across the oceans before anybody thought to look up from their cell phones to see what was going on. The infected breathed the virus into the air around them, spreading it through the cities faster than anyone thought possible. Hospitals were overwhelmed. Police lines crumbled. Quarantine sites disintegrated. Cities started to collapse.

Very fun series!!
What made the experience of listening to Dark Recollections the most enjoyable?
I found the story "In General" very pleasent with some of the mix humor, gore,and actions of the people in the story. I found myself invested in the characters and had a good feel of the real emotional reactions to the events in their lives.
The main character ( Adrian ) is a typical dude of guys and having exmilitary,ex club bouncer , and a big size intimitdating guy with fighting skills. With all that I described the most important thing about ( Adrian ) is that he turns out to be a down to earth nice guy ,as you learn to know him over the time you listen about his thoughts as he goes day to day in his journal entries. The books only faults is that it goes side track with other non important characters lives and gives a account of how they dealt with the moment the SHTF as the zombies arrose. This made me want to skip forward on the story track to my main guy (Adrian) journal accounts as I knew this is the meat and potatoes of the story.
You will not be dissapointed to drop a credit on this one as this Zombie storyline is fun and has a good flow with the narrator.

Surprisingly excellent
I’ll admit, I was a bit skeptical prior to listening. I am surprised to say that this is in my top 5 in the zombie apocalypse genre.

That main character...
Would you consider the audio edition of Dark Recollections to be better than the print version?
No idea, only bought the audio version.
What did you like best about this story?
This book sets up a cool situation. I enjoy a good retelling of the fall of society by a zombie horde.
Have you listened to any of James Foster’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Nope. But I have listened to other readers and James is one of the most enjoyable I have listened to.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
No strong reaction.
Any additional comments?
It's a long series, eight books! Also you should know that the main story is one that involves divinity and the battle between "good" and "evil". This series is not strictly about zombies and the apocalypse.

Solid writing, interesting premise, OK overall
I listened to the whole audio book; liked the premise and the writing style was solid in the contemporary casual adult language. I thought the story is just OK, slow in actions comparing to most of the post apocalyptic books I have read. Many reviewers seem to like the series, so I am going to try Book2 in near future.
Great narration performed by James Foster, perfect for the tone of the book.

Surprisingly Awesome
I wasn't sure I would like this. I like zombie books. I've read Tufo and a few other less memorable ones. But I am not usually a diary fan. I was hesitant because this book is entirely in diary format. But what a surprise! I love it. I am hooked. Actually, I listened to the sample and I was hooked. This has it all - tactical, procedural, humor and some feels. The world building is fun. We learn about the zombies from Adrian first hand as he is learning about them. He is the only person talking and I never got tired of listening. That right there tells you something. I am going to read the next one for sure!
The narrator was very good. He gave Adrian real personality.

NOW IM HOOKED
Chris Philbrook is an amazing author. Book one in this series is fantastic. very well written. A lot of action suspense etc. I invite you to follow Adrian through book number one as his tale begins. I'm moving on to book number two immediately. I have a feeling once I finish this series... I will read it again.
