Los Angeles County park ranger, Jack Carter, is about to discover that not all is as it seems in his tranquil life. Once responsible for patrolling the many public parks, in particular the popular Griffith Park with its famous observatory and zoo, Jack is about to discover that a whole new kind of animal roams his woods.

The undead kind.

Now, with his daughter bitten, it’s a race against time to save her—and stop a madman hellbent on destroying everything that Jack has fought so hard to save. With time running out, and a doomsday clock ticking, Jack Carter will sacrifice everything to save the ones he loves...even while the walking dead multiply...and grow hungrier and hungrier.

Entertaining zombie listening 🎶🔰

Another will written zombie horror haunting adventure thriller novel by J.R.Rain ☔ and Elizabeth Basque (Walking Plague Trilogy book 3). Anna is coming down with the zombie plague while their arch enemy is making plans for revenge. They continue to confront the zombies and plan to cure Anna. All comes to a climax at L. A. Dodger stadium with them winning out. They continue their relationships and life. I would highly recommend this series and authors too readers of fantasy haunting adventure thriller novels 👍🔰. Enjoy the adventure of reading or listening to Alexa read books 📚. J.R. Rain ☔ and team of authors are favorites of mine. 2022 😮👒😈

Better than book 2, liked how the loose ends were taken care of. Character development was well done, be it a bit predictable.Kinda hope there is a follow up of years down the line. Curious about how the Animals and Anna adapt and grow, Also as a Life long Giants Fan, kinda Disappointed about the Dodger Stadium lol

Excellent

The final book of this series was every bit as exciting as the first two. The group must right not only zombies, but a mad man as well. Great finale.

Look it wasn't terrible and it had its good points but it definitely was not groundbreaking or anything. The writing style was poor at times, it was way too predictable, and the characters were all a jumble of ckiches.

I read this trilogy mainly because before I read the first book in the series I was in dire need of an easy, gory, zombie-filled story and this supplied that. As I read on through the second book and then finally this, the third in the series, my need for something a little more intelligent than just zombies increased. Don't get me wrong I love zombies. I am a zombie fan. But there are so many books based around the whole zombie genre now that offer so much more than just gore. This unfortunately isn't one of them.

Its ok but I wouldn't call it intelligent other than the kind of original 'cure'. That was the highlight of the trilogy which says it all really.

The story got better as we went along; the characters more real and the storyline more stable. Book three focused more on the "agent in black" than the zombies themselves. A happy ending none the less, as all good fiction should.

Awesome

Good pacing, likeable characters, and a plot that has some novelty as a zombie apocalypse story. I caught the first book in an anthology, and pursued the rest. A great book.
