Publisher's summary
In this much-anticipated sequel, star-crossed lovers R and Julie must confront a world filled with the undead and the far more terrifying force that animates them.
Being alive is hard. Being human is harder. But since his recent recovery from death, R is making progress. He's learning how to read, how to speak, maybe even how to love, and the city's undead population is showing signs of life. R can almost imagine a future with Julie, this girl who restarted his heart - building a new world from the ashes of the old one.
And then helicopters appear on the horizon. Someone is coming to restore order. To silence all this noise. To return things to the way they were, the good old days of stability and control and the strong eating the weak. The plague is ancient and ambitious, and the Dead were never its only weapon.
How do you fight an enemy that's in everyone? Can the world ever really change? With their home overrun by madmen, R, Julie, and their ragged group of refugees plunge into the otherworldly wastelands of America in search of answers. But there are some answers R doesn't want to find. A past life, an old shadow, crawling up from the basement.

Worn out after decades of packing steel and raising hell, Viv, the orc barbarian, cashes out of the warrior’s life with one final score. A forgotten legend, a fabled artifact, and an unreasonable amount of hope lead her to the streets of Thune, where she plans to open the first coffee shop the city has ever seen. However, her dreams of a fresh start filling mugs instead of swinging swords are hardly a sure bet. Old frenemies and Thune’s shady underbelly may just upset her plans. To finally build something that will last, Viv will need some new partners, and a different kind of resolve.

Movie Watchers guide Review
I never read the first book but I saw the movie and it's pretty easy to follow just off that. there are some key differences though. SPOILER ALERT main differences you need to know are:
* R wears a suit and tie as a zombie not a hoodie. minor detail very important.
* Julies dad died at the end of warm bodies instead of accepting R
* Boneys were slightly more intelligent zombies not decomposed corpses
* R had a zombie wife and two kids.
I really like the continuation of the story in the background into R's first life. my only issue is the book ends feeling very incomplete and since he only did a very limited release the final book I've been having a hard time tracking down a copy.

Not as good as the first novel
I definitely struggled to get through this audio book. The biggest problem for me was that I got confused on who the narrator was talking about sometimes. It might have been easier in print format but I felt this book was a lot harder to follow than the original.

It hurts my heart that this series hasn’t gotten the love it deserves
Much like a lot of people, I was introduced to Warm bodies through the 2013 movie. It stood as something very unique to me in many ways as it follows the perspective of a zombie and the potential for a cure. I watched the movie when it first came out and only now have I listened to the books on audible. I was blown away and it left me regretting the chance to read this series years ago when I first was introduced to Warm Bodies on screen.
It is a witty and mature series. The first book was great but The Burning World blew it away. It was so refreshing to read a book that utilized perspective changes skillfully and left there being no chapters where I wanted to just skip ahead. It kept my interest the entire way through. The characters in the main group are all fleshed out so well. I love the symbolism this new world reflects back onto our current state of the world and I love that what started as a zombie romance became something greater and even more meaningful.
There is nothing I don’t love about this series and I hope audible puts The living on here soon. Hands down, this series deserves so much more love and popularity.

From Warm to Burning
I’m a huge fan of Marion’s prose. He writes with such lyrical mastery—his words are so fluid and poetic. ‘The Burning World’ is no exception.
A much darker and richer novel than its predecessor, this sequel to ‘Warm Bodies’ expands the zombified world of R and Julie to unprecedented depths. We learn more about the plague and its mysterious “cure,” we learn about what’s been going on beyond the airport, beyond City Stadium; most importantly, we learn more about R, and his life before he joined the ranks of the undead.
This novel is quite the ride—don’t get comfortable, and never prepare to stay in one place very long. Jacques Roy is an outstanding narrator, his voice for R is suitable. It is quite evident that this novel demands a sequel, and I very much look forward to seeing where Marion takes us next!

New Narrator Breathes New Life
What did you love best about The Burning World?
The story expands upon the best things about its predecessors - the characters are deep, introspective, and feel like more than "survivors." The expansion beyond the airport and the dome into the greater world make the story vast, with luscious descriptions that deepen as the story progresses.
What other book might you compare The Burning World to and why?
This book is more comparable to it direct predecessor, Warm Bodies. While R is not so much the struggling, angsty protagonist of the second (nee first) book in the series, Marion does a fantastic job of allowing R to develop beyond the zombie savant of Warm Bodies, and into a fully realized and confident protagonist worthy of being the reluctant hero.
What does Jacques Roy bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
The narrator's storytelling skills do a fantastic job of making the tale immersive in a way that reading words on a page may not. While the writing itself is both technical and lush, Roy's telling of the tale lends considerably weight for those who get bogged down by good writing that affords no coddling for light readers.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
There are several, but, "Spoilers."
Any additional comments?
While Roy's narration is very well executed and enveloping, my one criticism is that the main characters are voiced in a largely similar manner. The accents and vocal inflections used by Kenerly in Warm Bodies is sorely missed. That said, he does an excellent job, overall.
