Summary
When the zombie apocalypse strikes without warning one dog will hold the fate of her pack in her paws. This is the story of Riley, an American bulldog. Follow along as she tries to keep her pack safe from a zombie apocalypse. Traveling with her are Ben-Ben the high-strung Yorkie; her favorite two-legger, Jessie; Jessie's younger brother, Zachary; and Riley's archenemy, Patches the cat. They are a rag-tag group of survivors, who, when pushed to the limit, realize that they are all each other has.

Good Stuff
I enjoyed this book . I liked the story from a prospective of an animal. Although I enjoy this reader , I think it should have been a female reader instead of a male being that the main character is a female. But this was great

Dog day night
Would you consider the audio edition of The Book of Riley to be better than the print version?
Yes the reader feels right and the story flows effortlessly.
What did you like best about this story?
The perspective shift.
What does Sean Runnette bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
A great voice echoes the sarcasm inherent in the authors work.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes, short sweet and direct to the story. If a little short.
Any additional comments?
Will read the rest, but credits are valuable to.

Good
this is a good short story from the dogs perspective, the author did a great job and leads into his other zombie books.

A nice spin on the std story line.
Short easy listen, the different perspective is a refreshing treat. Good narration - worth a listen

Great fun. Another unusual take.
I had not really been overly interested in reading this as it seemed a bit ridiculous. I am so glad though that I did because I really enjoyed it. Mark Tufo's entertaining style, and obvious love and knowledge of dogs made this a really lovely story that ended far too soon. The play between the animal characters is really lovely and the characters really well thought out and executed. Riley is a great character and the play between her and the cat is particularly funny. The star of the story for me is BenBen, the Yorkshire Terrier. His eternal optimism and search for food is endearing and hilarious.

Mark Tufo at his best
I loved this book, just as amazing as his Zombie Fallout books but following the dogs through the new nightmare world ❤️

Good, but too short
I found this a very enjoyable listen. The narration is good, and the concept is quite innovative in an otherwise very stale genre.
Is it worth a credit though? Hmm, I lean towards no. The story isn't complete ok it's own and feels very much like a beginning with no end.
If you can find an omnibus edition with all 4 books though, DEFINITELY get it.
