Story
In the zombie apocalypse, no one is safe. Not even children. That’s what twelve-year-old Josh and his friends in the Zombie Hunters Club discovered when the undead invaded their school in The Living Dead Boy. Now, Josh and the remaining Zombie Hunters are stuck on a city bus traveling across zombie-infested Texas. With fires burning on the horizon, mass evacuations underway, zombies roaming the countryside, and in-fighting among the adults on the bus creating tension, Josh has never felt so helpless. Despite his father’s insistence that the adults can handle the situation, Josh knows far too well from watching zombie movies that one person can put everyone else at risk.

If only he didn’t have to deal with one of the most deadly threats of any zombie apocalypse: a teenage boy determined to woo Josh’s crush, Corina, and take over the small band of kids.

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.

I played all those cool video games. I watched all those movies. I even read the books. In most of 'em, the hero shoots the bad guys, drives a sweet car, never gets hungry, and always seems to get laid by the end. Yeah. Whatever. I gotta be straight with you about why I wrote this journal, and it comes down to one thing, the apocalypse kinda sucks. It doesn’t meet my expectations at all.

I absolutely couldn't take it any more.
What did you like best about The Living Dead Boy and the Zombie Hunters? What did you like least?
What did I like best? Not much. What did I like least? There are so many children in this book crying out for their parents. And when you listen to "Mama!" and "I want my dad!" over and over and over and over and OVER again it just made me cringe until I shut the book off half way. I don't know how the book ends but I hope the damn kids got eaten.
If you’ve listened to books by Rhiannon Frater before, how does this one compare?
I haven't.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
His children's voice crying out for their parents. Over and over and over again. I just couldn't take it any more.
Did The Living Dead Boy and the Zombie Hunters inspire you to do anything?
Not listen to anymore young adult zombie novels ever again. They're like regular zombie novels only more annoying.
Any additional comments?
If you hate the obnoxious children the next table over in the restaurant then SKIP this book.

Please never let me hear this Narrator again!
What would have made The Living Dead Boy and the Zombie Hunters better?
A different Narrator. The inflections on this guys voice is horrible. I don't know if a sample is offered, but before you purchase, get a sample listen.
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Erik Sandvold?
Cassandra Campbell did the "As the World Dies" Trilogy and she did an acceptable job.
Any additional comments?
I really think I could have enjoyed this book more but was too distracted by the Narrator. I found myself mimicking what he was saying back to him while driving alone in my car, I was that annoyed.

Exciting YA Zombie Adventure!!!
I am a big fan of Rhiannon Frater, from her 'As the World Dies" series to her 'Hidden Necromancer' series and really looked forward to sharing her YA Zombie novel with others. I listened to this novel with my 3 nephews and we had a blast. Personally I hated the narrator, but he didn't seem to bother my nephews as they really got into the novel. We all felt the characters were very relatable, we have all had friends like each of the characters which made them feel more realistic than a lot of zombie books. Our favorite character was Josh, most annoying, Sam . . . but who hasn't known a kid like sam. Overall an excellent novel and a good one to share with the YA in your life. We are all looking forward to the next book in the series.

Good YA story (bad narrator?)
This may be only my opinion but the narrator chosen to read this story really made it hard to get into. Maybe he’s not from Texas and that was his version of a Texas drawl. But the narrator read it so slowly that I had to listen to it on 1.25 times speed. He read it as though he were reading hello moon toa three-year-old and I found that really annoying.

My first foray into a ya zombie novel !
Disclaimer: A code for this audiobook was provided by the author on exchange for a honest review.
This was my first journey into a young adult novel in any genre so I admit I was a little hesitant in regards if this would hold my interest. Well it had me from the first chapter until the last chapter. Brief side note - not sure if it was on purpose but gotta love the Drake and Josh siblings. I did not think it was possible to write about a zombie apocalypse and be descriptive enough but keep it rated for ya. The author pulled it off and can't wait to jump into the second book.

good story
I think the story was decent, but the Narrator was awful! it took me multiple tries to listen to this book. he reads it like it's the first time he has ever picked up this book. I think the Narrators performance takes away from the story line, but in my mind I just kept thinking.... ugh this guy is the worst! the only reason I got through the book, is because I like background noise when working. I honestly cannot tell you what is happening with the characters. hopefully the second book is a better listen.

While I am no longer a young adult, I still enjoyed this series. It had just as much action, drama and appeal as all the other zombie books I have read, but told from the childrens' perspectives which was a refreshing change. Looking forward to the next instalment.

The Living Dead Boy and the Zombie Hunters, Not as good as the later books but its a good story, I did think its aim at a young audience in the writing, but as a set of books it's a good story to set up the plotline of the trilogy.

Great for YA
The Living Dead Boy and the Zombie Hunters is a fantastic YA apocalyptic book that can be enjoyed by all ages. This book is a perfect blend of zombie action, suspense, and drama. It is tame and not too gory or overly violent. Rhiannon Frater is an exceptional author, adding the perfect balance of ingredients in a zombie apocalypse, yet remaining appropriate for teens and still enjoyable by adults. The narration by Erik Sandvold wasn't bad, definitely a better fit for YA listeners.
I was given a free copy of this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

YA Zombies at their best!
This was an excellent YA zombie novel. 12 year old Josh, is the brave leader of the Zombie Hunters, guides his rag tag group of friends to safety through one crisis after another, making the best choices he can to problems even the adults struggle with. I found myself absorbed with his frustration of his circumstances and realisation of what means the most to him and the possibility of losing everything dear to him. His heartbreaking realisation that his longed for dreams of heroism during a zombie apocalypse are so very different in reality - "Be very careful what you wish for" I can't wait to read more!

Good for a young adult
Initially the narration put me off, this may be down to personal choice, but I'm an older reader/ listener so it may be fine for the younger zombie fans.
I found the story engaging despite the narration and will go on to listen to the next installment.
I'll recommend this to my youngest daughter as a beginner zombie story but not until she's 13+
