Road of the Damned: A Zombie Apocalypse Thriller (Life of the Dead Book 2)
N**)
Dead humans eat live humans...Zombies galore...Loved it!!
Wim has always been alone and had turned his back on the world before the world ended. He liked living on his farm and taking care of his animals. After meeting Ramey and getting to know her and giving her a safe place to sleep he wakes up the next morning to find that she has left without saying goodbye. Wim decides that he liked having Ramey around and wants her back so he packs up and hits the road hoping to find her. After all there is nothing left for him on his farm anymore.While she is glad that she met Wim the nice farmer who gave her place to lay her head for the night she knows she can’t stay even if she wanted to she has to look for her Dad. She has to know if he is alive or not.On his little road trip scouring the country hoping to find Ramey Wim meets some of the other characters like Emory and Bundy who run into Mina who has been driving around in an ambulance with a zombie riding in the back. They pick up Grady along the way and he hasn’t spoken a word since they found him.After going out to look for supplies they return to their vehicle to find it over run with zombies trying to get to Grady. After giving the zombies mercy they find that they now have a new passenger in the vehicle, Juli. Juli grew tired of wearing a gown so decided it was time to go shopping when she heard the zombies outside so she rushed out to help whoever was in the car but ended up getting herself trapped as well.Road of the Damned is filled with lots more blood and gore with lots and lots of zombie killing. It is a dog eat dog world or should I say dead humans eat live humans. As Mitch, a senator’s son who is trapped inside a bunker with thousands of zombies says “Living people dying, dead people coming back to life, undead people eating the living. Lather, rinse, repeat.” I couldn’t have said it better.Hell on Earth was a great introduction Life of the Dead world. I love getting to know each character and finding out where they were going or headed and wondering if their lives would ever intertwined. I also liked seeing those same characters pick up their roles in Road of the Damned and getting to know them more watching them meet up with some of the other characters on their journeys and getting to see them kill more zombies and the situations they would get themselves into at times. The ending kind of threw me for a loop and I can’t wait to see where it takes us in the next book of Life of the Dead world, The Ark.I love this author’s writing style and the characters are all amazing with some of the things they say and how they say it. Most of them are just what I would call down to earth kind of people who doesn’t beat around the bush when they say things and I love it. That’s what I say be honest and plain with it. I loved falling into this world once again. It was like being in the world of The Walking Dead and The Stand. It is like The Stand as the people are migrating toward each other and like The Walking Dead with them having to kill zombies on the way.Come join in on this amazing world of zombies in the Life of the Dead by starting with Hell on Earth and then going on to Road of the Damned. If you like zombies and The Walking Dead then you will love Road of the Damned.

Not just your average zombie book!! Way better!! Awesome!!!
Just finished Road of the Damned also read Hell on Earth. I have read a lot of books on the end of the world and have to say you can right a mean zombie book. I really like the way you but the reader in the story. You put this in a way that this could actually happen, is this the way we really become undead. So looking forward for your next installment of this because you know you can't leave us hanging with so much more to go. Thank you for the pleasure of reading such a great story

It's was good
The few we been following since it all started. Some find each other made small groups with each other and some relationships developed with some. Author did good job at switching from each character. I also liked that all of them can dead even if they are you're favorite person (s).I do have few questions about something how did Juli make it having biting a zombie to kill it. And is the virus airborne because I didn't get that feeling with book1 half way into this book? Bit confused.

Wow, Great Story
A really enjoyable story, the only reason I gave 4 vs. 5 stars was I thought with so many characters the books have been rather short. Would have enjoyed seeing a little more back story on some of the great characters the author has created. Now on to the positive, really great fast paced story, can hardly wait for book 3, also like that no character seemed safe, which makes the suspense even better. Good work Mr. Urban keep writing and I'll keep reading

Love this series!
I found a new author that's great ! This storyline is really good and the characters are real and relatable.If you've read authors like Peter Meredith and Mark Tufo ,Ryan Casey Kate L Mary. ... well you get the idea you've got to try this series.I always seem to be between books waiting for the next one to come out from my favorite writers .I feel like I just scroll and scroll through kindle store looking for someone new to pull me in. I found him! Tony Urban s Life of the Dead series is worth your time and money.Its a really awesome group of different types of new characters and a intriguing storyline. Give it a try!

Good continuation
Just finished Book 2. Enjoyed the exploits of the characters I knew, meeting some new ones and sorry to lose some. Maybe I am getting used to it, but it didn’t seem as gory as Book1. The series DOES NOT leave you with a cliffhanger. If it did, I wouldn’t continue, I think that is a cheap trick. If you want a longer review, check mine for Book 1. Now I’m off to get Book 3.

Even better then the first which was awesome
Took a chance on the first book and was not disappointed. Second books are sometimes not as good but this one was even better. Don’t know if this is should be a warning or not.The part I liked a lot was that this book is not set up as a fairy tale. Good people die, bad people remain. More true to life then many zombie stories. Can’t wait for book 3
