Age of the Undead

Written by C L Werner

Narrated by Gareth Richards

In a fantasy realm shattered by the zombie apocalypse, a bold Knight must enlist unlikely allies while discovering the source of undead corruption, in this darkly humorous adventure from the bestselling game range, Zombicide: Black Plague

When Knight Alaric von Mertz loses his family to a ravenous zombie horde, he swears revenge on the necromancer responsible. But a quest for vengeance is no easy matter in a world overrun by the walking dead. Joined by a sharp-tongued rogue, a witch hunter with secret knowledge, a novice wizard, and a dwarf demolition master, Alaric's journey leads him from magical fire moats to the zombie-ridden catacombs of the witch hunters to uncover a spell book of insurmountable power. As zombies claw and bite, Alaric fears he will never avenge his family. For in this age of the undead, betrayal and magic lurk around every corner, spelling either doom or salvation for them all.

Reviews for Age of the Undead

[Gamer Inferno · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I have to say that I didn't have high expectations for the book, but it turned out to be just what I needed. It's a fairly simple premise with a fairly simple plot, and the characters aren't particularly complicated. Definitely not to the level of LOTR or anything. But everything is done really well and the writing is strong. If you need something to listen along to, you could definitely do worse than this.
