About this listen

The zombie plague has been contained, right?

Frank’s job is to patrol the fence that separates the living from the undead. It’s a boring job...at least it was until today. Has the true apocalypse finally arrived?

The story takes its starting point in considering what would happen if zombies were herbivores instead of cannibalesque carnivores and the cause of becoming a zombie is a infectious disease. (I’m not well enough into zombies to know if the latter holds true in any case.)

While trying not to reveal too much, this is a beautiful and heart-wrenching story that both presents and provokes what-ifs, thoughts on how we treat fellow humans and other animals, and comparisons to diseases/diagnoses/medical conditions known in reality.

The narrator isn’t bad, but has a certain “play-narration” sound to him; sounding like someone pretending to narrate something dramatic, but coming off slightly silly.

I would recommend this as an alternative story to those liking their zombie stories as well as to those trying to illustrate or put words on various diseases, diagnoses, medical conditions, etc.

Moving and thought provoking zombie story

An enjoyable tale, very much in the vein of the walking dead series. If you like that, then you'll definitely like this.
I did find the narration let it down slightly, it seemed to be read a little slow, but that's just my opinion. Narration is a personal thing, other people might not even notice, it wasn't that noticeable and didn't ruin the overall experience.

Roma has taken classic zombie genre and flipped it on its head. this is the walking dead on the range. we need more writeres like this taking the typical stories lines and giving us something new.
