A brutal tale of zombies and gang members where the author leaves it clear that the real monsters are those who are still living.

Disclosure: I received a free audible copy of this via Audiobookblast.com for an unbiased review.
I really disliked this book. If I hadn't gotten a review copy and therefore felt obligated to finish, I might have quit listening. At least it was only 6 hours long. The characters are one-dimensional and no one is particularly likeable. The writing is full of cliches. And the zombies aren't a very big part of the plot. It's more a revenge story - angry criminal hunts cop. There's a lot of gratuitous violence, including sexual violence. From the title I was hoping for an over-the-top comic apocalypse tale, but I didn't get it at all. There's no humor in this.
