Publisher's summary
They were average people caught in a deadly time.
Lifelong best friends Max and Jesse are six stories high working a construction job, when the gates of Hell explode in downtown Cleveland.

As the two struggle to make their way out of the city, their families must do whatever is necessary to survive. Max’s family is in a race against time to fortify their suburban castle against the coming storm, while Jesse’s family is forced to leave the comfort of their home to find a secure shelter.
With danger and horrors surrounding them, they must all find their way back to each other. In the fight to stay alive, who will live and who will die?

Story
In the wake of the cataclysmic events that reshaped our world in 2020, a sense of relief washed over us all. By late 2023, I think we were ready to just live life again. I know I was. It was a time to make new friends and put the past to rest. Rayne and I hadn’t known each other long, but we were building a solid friendship, nothing more. It was our common interests that sent us on vacation together to my remote cabin. What we didn’t, couldn’t know, was that we were on a collision course with the end of the world as we knew it.

When two teenagers stumble upon a frozen corpse deep in the woods, they make the fateful decision to bring it back to town—unaware they’ve just unleashed the apocalypse. In the morgue beneath the hospital, the dead begin to stir, attacking the living and spreading a relentless infection. The once-quiet town quickly descends into chaos as the hospital becomes a battleground, its halls soaked in blood as survivors fight to escape the growing horde.

Story
When the black rain began to fall, it was a worldwide phenomenon that mystified everyone. There was little time to ponder the cause. Most animals died at the onset. While some humans were unaffected, others experienced a half-death of sorts, morphing into blood and flesh-crazed creatures with a desire to hunt the living. Climbing Fox Wattana of the Henomawi Nation claims responsibility for the black rain; he says it will will ensure the ultimate extinction of the United States government as revenge for robbing his people of their land. Cole "CB" Baxter isn't taking this lying down.

Before the lights went out, Jack Warrant never considered himself a prepper. That was someone on the edge, a conspiracy theorist or a doomsday cultist who had a fatalistic view of the world. He was neither a theorist nor a cultist. He was an optimist. At least that was what he told himself when the darker thoughts creeped into his psyche as he stared at the ceiling in the middle of the night. Whenever he started down the rabbit hole, he always clawed his way back into the sunlight.

BANGKOK, MARCH 2018. The world looked on in horror as millions of innocent lives were snuffed out in a matter of hours. Countless men, women and children slaughtered without mercy, torn apart by a violent mob that attacked without reason, motive or warning. Tom Freeman witnessed the aftermath. He reported on the tragedy and looked into the eyes of the sole survivor, an old friend, and what he saw looking back sent him running home to the United States. Back to safety. Back to a place where the world made sense, and the putrid stink of the dead didn't haunt his nightmares.

The zombie virus spread like wildfire and by noon, they were alone. Safe inside the fences, a group of school kids are the only survivors. Like the animals, they’ve lived their whole lives being cared for and fed, pampered, and loved. Now, they have to learn from each other how to survive, how to hunt, and how to kill.

Years after the outbreak of a mysterious pandemic, hardly any survivors are left in the quarantined wasteland of North America. Hunger and the menace of man-eaters are nothing compared to the ferals–those who were infected and mutated by the virus. The ferals have an unquenchable need to hunt and kill, and even a single bite will quickly transform human into a rabid beast. Two survivors, the pregnant Megan and her brother David, leave a deserted colony to seek a safer haven.

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.

Easy to follow impossible to put down.
I loved this audiobook! The author developed her characters very well, they were likable and relatable. The story line was gripping and every thing I would expect out of a zombie book all in one book!
The narrator did very well also, his voice was easy to listen to and did not grate on my nerves whenever he did a different voice for a different character, it was very believable!

Classic Zombie Fun!
This is why I love zombie horror! Old school style with all the action you could want. The story is family driven and the characters are easy to like. I’ll be diving in to book two right away! That was a terror packed ride and I can’t recommend it enough! Don’t hesitate to get this book! It’s fantastic and Eric Shelman is a marvelous narrator! So good!

Good zombie book series
I liked this zombie story and would recommend it to others who like the genre. it left me in anticipation each step of the journey. very detailed and descriptive of everything from zombie descriptions to the location.
I love the description of what was going on as the city was falling apart around them. the details, the emotions, the shock of it all.
though the story left me frustrated with a number of things though many would not care for a few of them. don't know if its supernatural or virus yet but people can turn in little as 3 seconds from a neck bite. the world fell to slow shambling corpses in less 24 hours left me in disbelief. many secene are easy to expect... the main thing that frustrated me was almost every zombie description 'they had bites up and down their arms' by the 30th time hearing it repeated... I did like the addition of fingers missing, limbs torn off, a barely attached head swinging around.
a good read/audio book but I probably won't listen to it more than once unlike other zombie books I've gone through.

Plenty of Zombie Action!
In a crowded genre like zombies, it's always nice to find a new storyline. The author has created a different scenario at the beginning of this book and it immediately grabbed me.
The story is full of tons of zombie action, a few tears, the killing of a character you are just beginning to really care about, and lots of blood and guts. But, it's also a story of the love of family and how that can keep you going during the horrors of a zompoc.
I also love the fact that the author has created a great cast of strong, take no prisoners female characters. You won't find any whiny, wimpy gals here! This is a great start to what I am sure is going to be one of my favorite series with zombies!
The narrator did a great job in making each character come alive. It's always great when you are able to know which character is talking just by the voices of an amazing narrator.

Depends on what you're looking for
I'm going to address the performance before the story because that's quick. In the first 20% of the book, it seemed to me that the narrator didn't have the characters locked in. The pacing/pitch of each character just wasn't always hit solidly, and it bothered me. Two of the female characters sounded the same as well. I truly debated if I wanted to continue listening to the rest of the novel based on this. If you feel the same, just keep going. Shelman locks it all in about 20% of the way through and it is a very solid performance from then on. During the last half, I cannot remember a time when the performance drew attention to itself, which is the highest praise I can give a narrator.
As for the story, it really depends on what you are looking for. This is a great gorefest slice-of-life piece going from the first moments of zombies through about three days. There isn't time for characters to have an arc... it is just too quick. Hernandez introduces several characters and uses the story to really lock in their personalities and relationships, and we get to know the Chronicles of the Dead version of the zombie plague. We get to see what minor bites versus major gore does to the human and the effect that has on how they turn. We get to see a large range of zombies, and a lot of them hit in different ways--how they died, a wide range of ages, what they mean to the main characters, what they look like now, etc.
My only complaint about the story is I don't feel it fully resolves the plot... and I won't touch on that specifically because I'm not doing spoilers here. Just know that this story has more similarities in plot development to Safe Haven or Adrian's Undead Diary (which are both series that I love, even though their first books don't fully resolve) than it does to the books in Cascadia or City series (more books I love). Unlike Safe Haven or Adrian's Undead Diary, Urban Gridlock has a large cast with tight-knit families that rival Flemings novels.
So, in summary: big cast, tight-knit family units, short time span, lots of gore, and a nice take on the severity of zombie bites and how that affects the change.

Great listen
I loved the book. I enjoyed the characters and the journey home. It was a different perspective than other apocalyptic books I’ve read. I will read book 2!

Eric A. Shelman does a fantastic job
The story is action packed, following along with Max and Jesse as they fight to get back to their families. Meanwhile, Michelle, with Lucia and Joey are facing dangers of their own while making their way to Anna and Max's house. Anna, with her two kids Camille and Damon fortify the home and keep watch over the neighborhood. Along the way Max and Jesse pick up three other guys and Michelle picks up Emily, who actually plowed into them. Jaime is an up and coming zombie author, that I hope we see more and more of. Eric is a great narrator. I have listened to him on many other books.
