Publisher's Summary

Audie Award Nominee, Paranormal, 2013

Teenage delinquent Angel Crawford lives with her redneck father in the swamps of southern Louisiana. She's a high school dropout, addicted to drugs and alcohol, and has a police record a mile long. But when she's made into a zombie after a car crash, her addictions disappear, except for her all-consuming need to stay "alive".

Critic Reviews

"Allison McLemore's delicate voice and Southern accent give Angel's first-person narration a humorous kick. McLemore excels at bringing Angel's self-deprecating and sarcastic comments to life. Her brisk pacing suits Angel's personality and draws listeners in from the first chapter, keeping them glued to their earphones as she plays up the book's 'gross factor' with drawling descriptions of gooey brains and crunchy skull cavities. She's also good at giving unique voices and mannerisms to secondary characters." ( AudioFile)

Terrific fun in a glorious southern accent

We Aussies can't buy the e-book of this series. Thanks publishers. The audiobook, however, more than makes up for that lack. Macklemore's accent is a joy and her performance of all the characters adds to the great fun of a most entertaining series. A strong central character, engaging ensemble, witty lines and gripping adventure. I've really enjoyed the character development over the 3 novels. Bring on the 4th in July '14.

Very entertaining! Loved the narrator too.

A little bit weird regarding zombies as Im not a fan but this was more of a who-dunnit story. I'll be listening to the series for sure!

A brain away keeps the doctor away.

If your a fan of the iZombie comic or tv show then this is a must read / listen. Was very reminiscent with the blonde undead heroine trying to piece her life back together after waking up to discover she's now a member of the undead brain eating variety.

Angel is a drug addict who can't keep a job, in a dead end relationship and living with her alcoholic father. But after blacking out one night wakes up in the hospital naked with a mysterious letter and package from a stranger who has organised a job for her as a morgue driver & has given her one month to get herself together. Angel isn't aware of her undead status at first but as headless bodies start piling up & she meets a few sketchy people things start falling into place. Angel finds she's actually good at her job & wants more then pills, her loser boyfriend Randy & the strained relationship with her dad, but only if she can keep her head.

I really enjoy this story, has laugh out loud moments. I wish the gory moments were a little bit more gory. The final conflict seemed a little bit to rushed, but did end on a happy conclusion & can't wait to start book 2.

Allison McLemore has a great Southern accent that really helped bring the characters to life.
