The Walking Dead: Rise of the Governor Audiobook

" This is a great and quick read for Walking Dead fans. It tells the back story of the Governor and how he got to be the villain that he is. "

" This was a waste of time, and i only got through half of it. Theres no insight to The Governors life before all hell broke loose. Instead its a very dumbed down version of the graphic novels and the amazing show. Scene after scene of getting into different cars and running down zombies, or just killing them, and your not waiting for some twist or surprise bc each chapter read like the last. I found myself just reading to try and get through. Lack of character development and a plot that is closer to a video game than a novel. The diehards will pretend this book matters but it very well could have been written overnight for the hell of it. "

" Enjoyed finding out the origins of the dreaded governor. At times the book seemed a bit repetative but overall a great read. Totally did NOT see the surprise ending coming. Won't give any more away. Looking forward to the next two books. "

" MUCH better than I thought it would be - thought it would be pulpy trash but it actually read quite well. Sort of tapered towards the end as things wrapped up much more quickly than I would have liked but a good page-turner all-in-all. "

" I read this yesterday. I like zombie stuff. "

" Twisted. With a crazy twist ending to boot. I liked this as a fan of the TV series, although, as a standalone book, it's not very good. You can tell that prose is a strange and uncomfortable format for Kirkman. It shows in the language and diction. I definitely feel like he wrote the thing with a thesaurus lying open on the desk... "

" Good read for Walking Dead fans but zombie fans might also enjoy it. Didn't see the twist coming. "

" If your a fan of the Walking Dead it's worth reading, but don't expect to much. "

" Might be easy to see what the end will be within the first chapter its the journey that makes it a decent book. "

" EVERYTHING you know about The Walking Dead is a lie once you finish this book. Have fun getting your mind blown. ;) "

" Total shocker at the end!! The wrong brother ended up being the psycho. If they bring all this into the up coming seasons the show will only get better. "

" If you like the show, you will love this book. It gives a background of who the governor really is. It's a fast paced, exciting read. One that will not disappoint. "

" Exquisitely grotesque! Fantastic read. "

" Great backstory to the Governor. I can't wait for the show to introduce him, and also I can't wait for the Road To Woodbury in October. "

" Loved this. Couldn't put it down. Loving the revival of the Zombie genre "

" I expected this to be good, but straightforward, but I was pleasantly surprised that it had quality substance. "

" Interesting back-story of the notorious Governor. Interesting twist at the end. Otherwise the writing, plot, and characters were pretty ho-hum. Would love to see a Robert Kirkman/Stephen King collaboration...that would be pretty amazing. "

" Good story although the ending didn't feel right to me. Seemed like a big leap to make for one of the characters. "

" I won't even address that this was terribly written. No one's expecting a Booker here. But for a book that is meant to be an explanation of evil, the characters are pretty one-dimensional. The twist at the end slightly redeems things. Slightly. "

" As bad as the comic is good. The writing is like that of an overeager college freshman with a thesaurus. "

" The book was pretty good. I think it is a set-up to a sequel. The way it ended, or rather didn't. Not real sure. The writing was well done but by the end I didn't really like the main characters. "

" Took me long enough to become obsessed with The Walking Dead. As exciting as the show... "

" I think this was a great tie in for people who read the comics. It shows how he became so sick and twisted by using big words. Personally its my favorite zombie book. I couldnt put it down. "

" I seriously cannot put it down!!! Can't wait for the next installments! "
