Summary

How will the Victorians handle a zombie apocalypse?

Not all heroes are heroic...in fact, some are outright dastardly.

After being expelled from Eton, Jack Strapper is tricked into joining the army and posted to an Irish cavalry regiment in the false belief that it'll be safe.

However, he's horrified to discover the nation's already amidst an ongoing apocalypse. Worse still, his unit's commanded by a mad colonel who's intent on making him fight.

He was told it would be all pretty girls and parties. Oops! How will the now Captain Strapper cope, knowing a million victims of the potato famine are roaming the land as zombies?

Yet, after an astonishing run of incredible coincidences and good fortune, he soon builds a reputation as an intrepid warrior. But not all are fooled.

There is one officer, Major Lynch, the regiment's most decorated soldier, who's taken a disliking to the young upstart. Refusing to believe the tales of heroics, he's disgusted by the way his comrades fawn over this boy who can barely even hold a sabre, never mind single-handedly vanquish dozens of foes.

And why are there no living witnesses?

After an unfortunate incident with his wife, Lynch now holds a personal vendetta and will stop at nothing to expose Jack for the coward he really is.

If you enjoy a zombie military series and a hilarious antihero, you'll love the historical twists in Not Dead Yet. Get it now.

Really enjoyable

This must be the only zombie story set in the Victorian period and because of that we get canons pulverising the dead with huge balls of iron. What could be better? Not only that but Not Dead Yet is possibly the funniest story ever, which made it truly enjoyable. Captain Jack Strapper is an awesome character.

Victorian Zombie Romp

A great story about a cowardly custard who finds himself the hero by complete accident. The only downside is the awful accent that the narrator chose to use for his hero. Had to listen in small doses because of this.

Strappy back for another great adventure

I downloaded this in Audible so I could enjoy listening to Strappy. I would recommend this book for the story and the narration, which is quite colourful, a very entertaining tale.

The Greatest Coward Ever

Good old Strappy is the absolute best.

I usually root for the underdog,, but this time i'm rooting for the conniving crafty coward,, he is a wonderful weasel. He is the coward we should all aspire to be.

Kudos to K. Bartholomew
1) excellent writing, really brought the time period and geography to life as well.
2) absolute flawless narration... Strappy voice perfect for his character.

cant wait for more adventures.
