Almost six years ago, I decided that I had my fill of Los Angeles, and drove back to my New England home over three thousand miles away. Except I didn’t take the direct path. I ended up driving to Alaska, down to Texas, up to the Dakotas, and finally due east. That three thousand mile journey ending up being twenty thousand miles. Before I left on my journey, I decided to collect a gazillion audiobooks and had I known there were zombie audiobooks, I would have been in seventh heaven.

Introducing Toothless by JP Moore. It is historical zombie fiction in the same vein as De Bello Lemures, or the Roman War Against the Zombies of Armorica by Thomas Brookside. Here’s the description of the book:

France, 1180 AD: an ancient evil is on the march. The Black Yew leads an army of demons through Europe, laying waste with a devastating plague and destroying the relics of Christendom. After losing his wife and daughter, a failed Templar rejoins his comrades in the crusade against the Yew’s army. But the dice are cast against the living, and the Black Yew’s demons slay him, impressing his reanimated corpse into their ranks. He is gifted. He shows great promise as a servant to the Yew. But life is not yet done with him.

Better still, this book is podcast and free to download. I haven’t listened to this yet, but I need something to fill space on my morning commute. I’ll let you now how it turns out.
