STAR RATINGS GUIDE
The Walking Friends. See what I did there? Yes, I know it doesn't work.
THE BIRDICT
Okay. Okay. Um. Did someone say free zombie audiobook? Because when I heard that, the excitement was embarrassingly, child-on-Christmas-birthday-morning palpable.
Now, first off, read the blurb and heed the blurb. Have you read book 1 first? No? What are you doing here? Shoo. Come back once you have read it.
Done that? Excellent. This is Peter's side story. It's a sort of detour in the overall plot, but a short and worthwhile one. It's no different from an author catching up with another character in a book to delay the main action. I only saw this book once I'd read book 2, so I was thrilled for the extra content. A little bonues direct from SLF to the fans.
SQUAWKING THE TALK
Julia Whelan has a very good Peter voice. It's still obviously a female narrating, but it is subtly huskier and lower. I wonder though if they ever considered re-recording this with the male voice from later series.
