About this listen
When Victor Tookes went to work that beautiful spring day, he never expected to see a man eaten alive in the street in front of his office. After convincing himself that they really were zombies, he makes a trip from his house in Pennsylvania to his family home in Virginia, battling zombies all the way. His three and a half year old son was bitten on the leg, but doesn't turn into a zombie. Instead, he turns into something more than human.
Victor quickly discovers that everything he knew about zombies was wrong. Not all of them were mindless, uncoordinated, rotting ghouls; some of them were bigger, faster, stronger or smarter than when they were human.
A small percentage of humans are genetically immune to the parasite. Instead of turning these humans into mindless shamblers, they gain enhanced abilities. These new abilities will be pushed to their limits in their quest to carve out a safe haven to call home.
How will he keep his son safe when the world crumbles around him?

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.

After a night out celebrating, she and her friends wake up, sick with way more than the hangover of the century. All too soon, Callie realizes that this is not just a common cold she’s suffering from—and when she wakes up from a coma in a quarantine tent as the sole survivor, lack of food and water aren’t her only problems.

I really enjoyed this story. it had a different take on the zombie genre but I thoroughly enjoyed it. I played it beginning to end without stopping.. On to the next in the series. The second book is always my deciding factor if I want to finish the series.

Give it a try.
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
I would recommend this book. It definitely draws you in right away, and is a new and interesting take on zombies. I'm interested in listening to the rest.
Would you be willing to try another one of Victor Bevine’s performances?
I guess I will if I want to listen to the rest of the series. But Except for the narrator, it was a fun book. He kind of sounded to "happy" in some places that i thought should have been more serious.
Was What Zombies Fear 1: A Father's Quest worth the listening time?
Yes

Zombie Powers Activate
I know zombies are not real, but some zombie stories are more believable than others. I am used to "zombie powers", I mean Zombie Fallout is my favorite, but now everyone seems to have powers. It was not what I expected. Perhaps if not most of the people we met on our was to grandma's house became special I would have been happier. This doesn't mean that I wont keep reading the series. I still want to find out what happens, so in the long run the book isn't bad enough to quite reading.

Refreshing take on the Zombie genre
I would be skeptical about a book that combines aliens, zombies and super powers however Kirk Allmond managed to pull off and create a great series. I highly recommend this series. All the books were just as good as each other, so I'm only giving a review for the first book as there is no need to give a review of the others. I really don't have any criticisms for this series it's well paced and the character development is excellent over the 6 books. You will not be disappointed buying this book.

Does a bite make you a zombie or a superhero?
What disappointed you about What Zombies Fear 1: A Father's Quest?
There was no one thing...Is this a zombie novel? or a completely unbelievable superhero novel. You could insert "The Flash, Hulk, Bulls-eye, Thor, etc in for the heroes names and it would have flown better, Hated the large holes in the plot, jumps from desk jockey to strategic tactician, weak characters - it goes on.... I did not like the concept very much, walking dead, almost human dead, and super zombies - I don't know....Talking zombies????? Then they are not zombies.... Maybe INFECTED would have been a better word...The author tried to bring something 'original' to the zombie template as a whole but it felt like a rip off of many single ideas from other books - zombie, vampire, werewolf, alien....and in the end it was a bit too much to swallow.When a character retells their part of a story it should read like dialogue, not like they had hours to reflect, review video, and then recant their experience in vivid and exacting detail, something NO ONE would do in real conversation....
Has What Zombies Fear 1: A Father's Quest turned you off from other books in this genre?
NO. There are many equally bad and even more much better (Mark Tufo). One has to go into a book like this with a lowered expectation and be surprised when it is properly delivered and the voice talent is great. Sorry to the author but it was poorly written with too many holes in plot, weak character development, horrible dialogue, and too many leaps of faith to follow along and enjoy without those distractions...
How could the performance have been better?
The accents were horrible, again sorry to the voice talent, but you could not really tell who in the book was talking by the voice.
What character would you cut from What Zombies Fear 1: A Father's Quest?
I may have made max a bit older to start -
Any additional comments?
unfortunately I am driven by unknown forces which compel me to complete the series.... thank goodness they are only 6 hrs each...

Run away
The writing is absolutely horrible. It feels written by a 3rd grader.
I feel awful for the narrator, he did the best he could with the content.
