About this listen
The message on the radio promised salvation from the zombie apocalypse. Would they find safety after the siren sounds?
Anna and her mother hid inside their home while flesh eating monsters roamed outside. Their food and water stores reached their end. They sat with no power, no weapons, and no hope. Anna fiddled with an old battery powered radio, but the same message played endlessly on every frequency. A message of deliverance from their death sentence.
When the alarm sounds, will they find the help they hoped for? Salvation or a fate worse than the zombies?
Dead Summer is fourth story written in the Operation Z world during the zombie apocalypse. If you liked the Walking Dead, or other fast-paced zombie apocalypse stories, then you’ll enjoy G.D. Szepanski’s story.

The cool part is the way the author describes situations from different characters point of view. At first I thought it was lazy, but it wasn't. It was interesting. Another cool part was anyone can die at anytime in anyway. So, if you do try this book, don't get a favorite or anything.
I was very disappointed that so many different forms of rape where happening. The book fixated more on that than the zombies. There are "good/ moral" characters in the book, but we barely hear from them. Lots of rape (woman and children, awake and drugged), lot of drug abuse and lots of men who want to steal woman to rape. Thats clearly what they all want, lol, not to get supplies or a better place for their people or escape... just woman. Maybe we are seeing the zombie apocalypse (ZA) take place directly next to a max security prison filled with mostly rapists? If not rape, then child labor to get drugs.
It's trying to be shocking for shock value. It's sad, because the characters were kind of cool and all at different points of their life. The beginning chapters are all different points of view of the same accident, that was different and nice. Then, the rapes just kept happening. Granted, it was a group of rapists that where attacking the same group of people, but honestly, did they get a "rapists are us" post out before the ZA or something? I can see how the author tried to weave the usefulness for the drugs after the ZA, but wish he had shown it in use, not talked about it.
Not a good book, but I have been scavenging all the free zombie books and, PLEASE believe me, there are worse zombie books out there. I think I can finish this one at least.
zombies, or a book about grape (minus the g)?
