Podiobook Review: Dead Mech by Jake Bible

Book Review on Dead Mech by Jake Bible. Rated at 10 out of 1 through 10. Let me set the scene for Dead Mech. The zombie apocalypse has happened in America. Humanity has coalesced in various pockets of the US, some in huge, walled city-states, others in the wasteland which is outside the city-state walls. Protecting these city-states and maintaining some kind of order in the wasteland are the Mechs. Additionally, there is technology now which fries the brain of any city-state resident as soon as he or she dies, so they don’t become a zombie. However, this tech has to be turned off to operate a mech and facilitate the mech/human interface. So, there’s the rub. What happens if a mech pilot dies before disconnecting from his mech? You get a dead mech.
On top of this very strange state of affairs, something strange is happening in the city-states. The mech pilots have to find out what is going on, and save the rest of humanity before it’s too late.
