About this listen

Safe for Now is Book 9 in the continuing struggle of the Mud Island Family against the Infected Dead. This is a story of individual determination as well as group efforts to bring mankind back from the brink of extinction.

There had been setbacks to the plans of opening the shelters to more survivors, but the discovery of the shelter in Huntsville and the return of the astronauts from the International Space Station had given the Mud Island family a reason to keep fighting to do more than just survive. They still believe that the infected dead are not going to be the end of mankind if they continue to find ways to help each other.

The Chief, Kathy, and the other veterans of the zombie apocalypse embark on a quest to help the astronaut from England to get home to his wife and children, and in doing so they discover that they aren't the only ones fighting back. The world still faces a long road to recovery, and in some places disasters are yet to come, but they find through their journey that they are not alone.

Love love love, want more!

Another great installment! I love how Bob Howard really makes this world come alive and goes through the best case censorious of the zombie apocalypse. Always has me on the edge of my seat with if someone is going to die, and sometimes I’m pleasantly disappointed when no one does. So many times you get gut punched by authors that kill off favored characters, and it’s nice that this series hasn’t really killed off any of the main cast.

One thing I wish we would see is some LGBT representation, everyone’s so straight 😂 I know target audience is mainly straight white men for zompoc books, but that shouldn’t be the end all be all. I’d love to see someone like me in this series that I love so much.

This may also be just a personal gripe, but this installment entered another character that was supremely useful but then was immediately infatuated with the men of the cast. As much as I love Chief Barnes and Captain Miller, it’s a little weird when a love triangle is teased just to suggest that Andy should just go with the last single man of the group. Can we not add woman to the group just to be hooked up with the men? And vice versa? Don’t get me wrong, I love romance and the couples in here are great, but I swear everyone is just immediately in love with each other and it’s clear a new character added to the main cast is just to make another couple.

Other than that, I loved this book and love this series. Hoping the next two audiobooks come out soon so I can continue this series!

The story has gotten more interesting and suspenseful.

I enjoyed the raw emotions expressed. It made the story more engaging than the prior books in my opinion.

I disliked the voice of Iris. I also didn't like the unrealistic way her husband being hit on by another woman was handled. Real women don't respond that way and neither would her friends.

The best one yet!!

I really missed this group and unlike previous continuations of a series I didn’t have to go back to previous books to remember who was who and what happened. That’s because this series really stuck in my head and everything came back to me immediately! Great series and I CANNOT WAIT FOR THE NEXT IN THE SERIES! Amazing narration as usual. Thank you!
