Charles Grimly has marital problems you wouldn't believe and his mommy issues are a little too much for him to handle. He may not be all there, but he has to hold it together if he's going to make it through this day in one piece.
Enjoy this short story based in the world of my novel Don of the Living Dead.

Okay this wasn't really much of a zombie story, it was more of a serial killer story that had zombies show up in the last couple of pages.***SPOILERS*** ***SPOILERS*** ***SPOILERS***
So the more I read this series the more I liked it. This is the story of the couple who the other two main characters saw arguing in the courtyard. It turns out that the dude killed his mother and kept her severed hand in his closet. He then is finally fed up with his wife's constant nagging, her insults, her forcing him to become vegan, her stripping and flaunting her body for other men. He finally kills her and chops up the body. This whole time he is hearing the voice of his dead mother in his head telling him what to do. Now that was really cool!
He gets bitten while trying to get her cut up body into his car. Then he goes to McDonald's because he's hungry and when the worker hands him his order, he grabs the kid's hand and starts to eat it.

I really liked this story, and if this is a preview of how good this author is with zombie literature, it's very likely I will check out their other works.

Zombie Tales Primrose Court Apt 305 edition by Robert DeCoteau Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Ok, so, even though this is my THIRD review of one of Robert DeCoteau's short/parallel stories related to his Don of the Living Dead book, I really want to reiterate that I generally abhor short stories with a fiery, stinging passion. But that maybe, just MAYBE, he has changed my mind a smidge.
The concept of the "Zombie Tales" books, perspectives (in separate novellas) of different residents of an apartment building set in the Don world during an impending zombpocalypse was such a novel (heh, novel, I made a joke!) concept, that I overlooked my general dislike and decided to take a chance.
Not only was this very well written (some minor editing complaints, though), but it was surprisingly well done in so few pages.
Robert DeCoteau has written his main character, Charles Grimly (and equally so his unfortunate Mexican stripper of a wife) superbly well in such a small space. Charlie is...disturbed. I mean, he makes a good living and all, and somehow was even able to convince a hot stripper to marry him, when his own appearance is less than desirable. But seriously? Charlie? Whacked. He's been taking abuse from both his wife and his mother, who does not approve of the marriage, for far too long. Charlie is fed up, and he's not gonna take it anymore.
So, of course, he WOULD decide to finally stand up to his wife and just say "NO" to her abuse on the same day as the onset of a zombie apocalypse...
This is part of an interconnected series of short stories (the other two are Zombie Tales Primrose Court Apt. 205 and Zombie Tales Primrose Court Apt. 502). They don't have to be read in any particular order, as they tell the events of the day from the perspective of three different people who live in the same apartment building.
What is interesting about the stories is that the zombies appear relatively late in all three of them. This story features a man struggling with an unhappy marriage during the day the zombie apocalypse begins. The story has a strong Psycho (1960) feeling to it. I'd have enjoyed it more if it had been less derivitive, but such is life.
I am pretty sure I read some earlier stories by this author that are now no longer available on . If this is the case, he is developing quickly and I think he shows a lot of promise. One issue that will need to be addressed is the number of typos in these stories -- it is simply unacceptable. With some careful editing, I would gladly pay for the author's work. Truly character-driven zombie fiction is rare.
3.5 Stars
Most of what I have to say about this story is summed up in my review of Primrose Court Apt. 205 as the spelling and grammar errors are about the same as they were in the first mini story. I do appreciate that all 3 short stories revolve around each other and we basically get to see the viewpoints from 3 different people while they go about their lives in the Primrose Apt building. This one was probably my favorite out of the 3 short stories because of the serious effed up factor to it with the main character. The main character is going through some pretty heavy stuff but he has no idea that through all of his dark planning and preparations it will mean nothing because zombies don't care what your plans or priorities are. I also find it interesting that it doesn't bother me at all that the stories just up and end without finding out what specifically happens to the characters. I love stories where we get a brief peak at a character's life while the veil is pulled back and then just as quickly the curtain drops and we are left wondering what happened. I will definitely be reading Don of the Living Dead, which this story was a spin off of. If you aren't sure if you're going to want to read the actual novel then you can read the first 2 or 3 chapters in any one of the Primrose stories as 50% of the story (according to my ) is actually a peak at "Don" so only 50% of the length is actually the Primrose story.
Author has some potential so I will continue watching out for his work. I just wish more time was spent on spelling and grammar so I could've given this a higher rating.
Okay this wasn't really much of a zombie story, it was more of a serial killer story that had zombies show up in the last couple of pages.
