The Walking Dead Series by Robert Kirkman and Jay Bonansinga - Restarting from 'The Fall of the Governor: Part One (The Walking Dead #3)' from August 3rd 2018

[Maddie]

Based on "The Walking Dead" graphic novels/comic books and the series starring Andrew Lincoln ("Teachers", "This Life and Love", and "Love Actually") and written/produced by Frank Darabont whose previous credits include "The Shawshank Redemption" and "The Green Mile", this is a new trilogy of books written by Robert Kirkman and Jay Bonansinga, author of "Perfect Victim" and "Shattered". Set in the world created by Robert Kirkman, this standalone trilogy is fast-paced, action-packed storytelling about the lengths some men will go to survive. With new characters, new storylines and with the same in-depth character-based plotting that has made the television series such an immediate hit, this trilogy of novels is sure to be a hit with those who love zombies and those who have loved the TV series and comic books.


In the Walking Dead universe, there is no greater villain than The Governor. The despot who runs the walled-off town of Woodbury, he has his own sick sense of justice: whether it’s forcing prisoners to battle zombies in an arena for the townspeople’s amusement, or chopping off the appendages of those who cross him. The Governor was voted “Villain of the Year” by Wizard magazine the year he debuted, and his story arc was the most controversial in the history of the Walking Dead comic book series. Now, for the first time, fans of The Walking Dead will discover how The Governor became the man he is, and what drove him to such extremes.

CH 4 (view spoiler)[Already down a man...Bye Bye Bobby. SO did the parents look up their son in the doghouse after he was bit?! . (hide spoiler)]

[Jamie]

End of Part 1 (view spoiler)[I can really see the comic version of Philip/The Governor in this, especially with the axes. But I wonder for sure which version it will follow(show or comic). I guess it will depend if they come across Darryl's brother... (hide spoiler)]

[Jamie]

Ch 13 (view spoiler)[Ah so this is where Kirkman original brought in Tara and her family. So he didn't fully connect or admit about death=biter. (hide spoiler)]

[Jamie]

End of Part 2 (view spoiler)[I cannot believe he raped her. Well, I can if it was LATER but he still seems half decent here. While I feel bad Nick, Briand and especially Penny have to be kicked out too I am glad Tara gave him the boot!. (hide spoiler)]

[Jamie]

Done! (view spoiler)[I never expected The break from Brian...that HE is the governor......Crap! (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

20%: (view spoiler)[It's a pretty interesting audio book.. but I'm kind of bored right now. The pacing just seems off or I'm in a mood while listening to this at work. I'll blame work. I'm sad that Bobby died though. I also thought this was going to be like the show.. or the comics. Never read the comics but I've seen the show.. I'm confused. (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

40%: (view spoiler)[Well, shit. Now they are in trouble with all of the zombies on them. I hope they make it all out. Especially Penny. (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

60%: (view spoiler)[wow I can’t believe their dad died!! He didnt even get bit so I’m wondering how or why he turned?! I feel bad for April and Tara though. (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

80%: (view spoiler)[I’m happy that this group is still alive but I’m still wondering what the hell happened to April?! (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

100%: (view spoiler)[Okay, I will admit the pace of this book was all over the place. The narrator sounded so monotone(d)? that I was drifting in and out of paying attention to everything. I can't believe Phillip was killed or that Penny, who is still a zombie is still being kept "captive" in a way. I also can't believe that Brian is the governor. My mind is blown. I hope that the second book is a lot better and has a much faster pace. (hide spoiler)]

The Road to Woodbury
I started this days ago but slow start for me with life right now.
Ch 3 (view spoiler)[Sheesh Chad, even with witnesses saying Lilly saved his other kids, he still holds her accountable. I am sorry but in such a world, take responsibility for your own kids! (hide spoiler)]

[Jamie]

CH 6 (view spoiler)[The scene with Megan screaming as bily innards hit her made me laugh. I have a twisted sense of humor today it seems (hide spoiler)]

[Jamie]

Ch 8 (view spoiler)[I do not like the looks and 'innuedos" about Lilly. And what will that mean for Megan? Where did she and Scott go?. (hide spoiler)]
