What’s My Undead Mother-in-law about? Remember my first book was Zombie Turkeys. How could I top that?

Another Villain Excerpt from My Undead Mother-in-law – This is It!
He jumped into his hyperloop. It led to a bathroom.
“C’mon, boys,” he said to his chipmunks.
Splattity splat-splat!. Frigging zombie turkeys!
No problem. Holding his chipmunks, he pulled the eject lever.
Whoosh! A mile up, inflatable wings and tail whooshed from the seat. An electric propeller. spun
Vik steered his ultralight aircraft toward his destination.
Humvees sped toward him. Time for his backup plan.
Securing his chipmunks, he opened the armrest, strapped on a controller, and squeezed the trigger.
The ultralight plane disintegrated.
Falling thousands of feet, he triggered the jetpack. His descent stopped. He skimmed above the fields.
It’s best to be unpredictable.

Meet My Favorite Villain From My Favorite Book – Which one is that? My Undead Mother-in-law, the second book I wrote, now the third in my series (Zombie Detective occurs before it) has been published for eight years. You can buy it by clicking here. Keep on reading for a better deal!
Meet My Favorite Villain, Vik Staskas
Vik Staskas absently stroked his long glossy-black hair as he skimmed through the day’s news on his wall-mounted monitor from his five-hundred-foot superyacht. He noted the surge in zombie cures and sought to tap into the money. He hired operatives to infiltrate the Midley Beacon and SPEwZ Inc., the business arm of the famous charitable zombie organization. The possibility of failure didn’t occur to him. He succeeded in everything he tried: a street thief as an orphan in Belgrade; a college student in Paris, where he got his PhD in robotics; and taking over European organized crime without the nominal bosses knowing he existed. He was ready to take over the US.
He developed remote-controlled cyborg animals and insects. He used them to spy, to infiltrate, to conquer, to steal, to kill. They were unstoppable. He planned his first hijacking of a zombie blood air shipment from Gary, Indiana. He could think of several practical uses for cyborg-controlled zombies in his crime empire. As they were, zombies had too much free will for his taste. He chuckled. Even zombies didn’t stand a chance against him.My Undead Mother-in-law.

Outlandish Fun
Andy Zach continues his unrelenting attack on the horror/zombie genre with outlandish humor. What will society do with the new human zombies after the havoc caused by The Turkey Zombies?!? That was a rhetorical question…so just laugh! 😉

Most adorable mother-in-law ever
Note: While this is Book 2 in the series, it works pretty well as a stand-alone story.
Set several months after the zombie turkey outbreak of Book 1, the contagion continues to pop up in other species. Now that several zombie humans have been created, the government can no longer hide it. In fact, most zombie humans continue to work, play, cook, attend church, and have family get-togethers.
Diane is such a fun mother-in-law! She’s a bit overbearing but ferociously protective of her family. I love her dedication to zombie acceptance and beating down zombie stereotypes. Also, she’s a great brawler. I would not want to be on any team opposing Diane!
The zombie critters were great too! I love that the contaminated corn (the suspected source of the zombie outbreaks) is still the main suspected source of these new zombie species – like snakes and chipmunks. That scene with the rat and the snake hijacking the plane – haha! This story had me chuckling often.
I did miss Sam and Lisa from Book 1 but they do have minor roles in this book. In fact, seeing what this book does to them, I really hope we see more of them in Book 3. While there isn’t nearly as many zombie turkeys, we do get a few zombie turkey gobbles in this tale (which makes me laugh like a maniacal little kid).
Review Continues
I look forward to Book 3. 4.5/5 stars.
The Narration: Phil Blechman and Raven Perez continue to do a great job with this series. I love Blechman’s zombie turkey calls – makes me laugh every time no matter how gruesome the scene. Perez was spectacular as Diane – loud, proud, boisterous, hilarious. The technical recording quality is also top notch. Blechman and Perez sound like they are in the same room for the recording. It’s seamless when they trade off or even back and forth in the same conversation. Excellent all around! 5/5 stars.

Great Book! Fun Twist to Zombie Story!
Not your usual zombie story. This one is fun and funny. I laughed several times throughout the story. I’m looking forward to the next installment of the series.

Gotta love these books.
Andy Zach has done it again for me, I love the Audiobooks. The Performances by Raven Perez, and Phil Blechman, are outrageously Great. Not too many turkey gobbling sounds in this story, but I can live with that. Read the first book and you’ll understand. All in all, I’d double the number of stars for the first book, and this one if I could.

Funny
Very entertaining. Didn’t know what to expect other than I thought it would be amusing. It was! I played some for my husband and laughed tears at one point just as I had.

Perhaps Andy could titled this Supers’ Origins
it a super story about a super mother in law. father in law, brother and sister in law and a bunch of “Sidekicks” real impressive side kicks. Good triumph over evil through pain and persistence and a real bad villan is finally defeated; or is he? The Narration is outrageously hilarious and so “Camp” that I smile when I think about this listen. I am becoming a lover of Zombisim, in fact long live Zombies, no perhaps live isn’t quite the right word. Any way If a great listen is what you need these days first listen to Andy’s first book Zombie Turkeys “gooble gooble” and than for a continuous great listen meet the mother in law.
