Hell on Earth: 1 (Life of the Dead) Paperback – 7 Oct. 2016

A good, fast read, lots of established characters, a story that needs to be carried in,looking forward to book 2.

I hadn’t heard of Tony Urban before I read this book. I do love an apocalypse story! So I thought I’d give this one a go. It’s good. All the characters are interesting so I want to learn more about them. And I already have my favourites! And with plenty of action I read it rather quickly! So I will be reading the next one straight away!

very good exciting

a great series by this author, a compelling story with well drawn characters, but let down once again by sloppy editing/spell checking-what does it take to get the job done right? also, Tony is very snobby about who can, and who cannot comment on his fb page, very arrogant. perhaps only his sycophants are allowed?

As a first book from an author it's hard to know what to expect but this blew me away.The characters are all well rounded, knowing who they were before it all went down the pan helped for sure. Wim is definitely my favourite as he is so down to earth and pragmatic.An exciting story, never knowing who will die or how they will escape (no spoiler but one is a major 'Eeewwww!!' moment.) It captures the imagination and holds you in its grip.I'm happy that I was recommended this book.

Good storyline with good characters. Will be reading the other books to see where the story goes. Think I can guess but I'll see.

Thank you 😊 i was getting fed up with trying to read books i didn't enjoy.. Glad i stuck with these .

I bought the audio book and couldn’t get on with it, but that was partly because it hadn’t downloaded properly. But reading it I’m loving it and can’t wait to start the next one ! And I love there’s 4 more books to go

This book is a nice little surprise. I just grabbed it looking for something fun to read and was not disappointed.It started off a little slow/odd for me, but then really expands with a wide variety of characters and situations. I found myself really enjoying all their points of view.I did see a scattering of typos and misspellings (how does that happen these days?) but otherwise a well written fun story!

This is a great book to read and keeps you not wanting to put it down. I have to know how everyone gets on

Old Man Bender (store owner) had been killed.Wim was ransacking the store.Solomon “Saw” Baldwin had figured out the wife was cheating on him.Jorge Bolivar watched in horror as PPL & animals were dying at an alarming rate.The infected/diseased that survived were zombies praying on others.Master Sergeant Don Rando, Corporal Gwen Peduto, & 1st Sergeant Clint Sawyer, were surrounded with them.Operation Liberty Bell was about to happen.Wim asked Hoyt Mabrey (mail carrier) what happened to his mail truck.Oliver “Ollie” Benedict (Benedict Electronics CEO) was raking Grady O’Baker (husband/father, salesman) over the coals.Grady told Tara Charles (Tender Tots owner) the bad news.Ruth O’Baker (wife/mother) was told also but not Josiah O’Baker (10, son, autism).20 zombies, were feasting on 6 dead soldiers.Emory Prescott (78, gay) went with Christopher (18, lawn service) to see about his Aunt.Most survivors could not help but to notice/watch the decomposing process of the maggot infested bodies that stunk to high-heaven.Who will perish & who will survive the zombie apocalypse?Warning: This book contains extremely graphic adult content, violence, or expletive language &/or uncensored sexually explicit material which is only suitable for mature readers. It may be offensive or have potential adverse psychological effects on the reader.I did not receive any type of compensation for reading & reviewing this book. While I receive free books from publishers & authors, I am under no obligation to write a positive review. Only an honest one.A very awesome book cover, great font & writing style. A very well written zombie apocalypse book. It was very easy for me to read/follow from start/finish & never a dull moment. There were no grammar/typo errors, nor any repetitive or out of line sequence sentences. Lots of exciting scenarios, with several twists/turns & a huge set of unique characters to keep track of. This could also make another great zombie apocalypse movie, animated cartoon. Pretty cheesy so I will only rate it at 4/5 stars.Thank you for the free author; Packanack Publishing; Amazon Digital Services LLC.; bookTony Parsons MSW (Washburn)

Enjoyed this book. Alot of characters to remember. Looking forward to reading the next book.

This was a surprisingly good book. I’m very picky with the novels I recommend. I have read MANY MANY zombie novels through the years, some were amazing and some not so much and some were downright awful. This gem of a book is in the amazing category and has all the fun markers that make zombie novels a worthy read. It has the right ratio of gore but also a really well thought out plot line. The characters are very well written and it was so easy to get wrapped up in their lives. His writing style has a nice flow that allows the reader to get lost in the book. Overall I give this a MUST READ rating and can’t wait to read the next book in this series.
