The Corpse War of 1793

It is quite ironic to read a story about men of great discipline and military decorum in such a SLOPPILY edited book.

That is my main, and quite frankly only critique of this work.
Brandon, either hire an editor or fire your current one because it's chok full of beginner's faults: Sentences have their last word or two in the next page, whilst others start with a couple of words in the previous, with the most glaring faults being that some pages have only a single sentence or even just a couple of words, and thus waste all the page.
There is also the annoying problem of texts is in italics being SHRUNK due to the font, and thus are hardly legible.
I know you tried to be historically accurate and all, but you need not to do the same mistakes of people from 300 years ago. Editing has came to a profession, and has increased reading quality greatly. Please make good use of it.

Otherwise the story is all right, and the setting of a zombie outbreak in the brittish empire experiencing the early industrial revolution is interesting.
I finished the book in 3 days, as it kept me reading it, even though my focus is terrible. I never felt bored during the read (only annoyed by the editing :/ ).

What I would recommend to increase the quality of the story itself is to learn better pacing, and in fact the length at which you should draw out a scene, or chapter.
It's not bad per say, but I grown accustomed to the horrors of the corpse war alongside of our poor author here, as the story turned into what might be called "misery porn", so all the ghastly details in the later chapters were lost upon me after reading all the horridness that preceeded it.
Some scenes don't really add much to the story, or could be done in sentences, rather than pages (you have bad habit of overly explaining and getting into tangents, just like in your videos). The story was often halted by the Author describing a horrible scene or other in excrutiating detail that may work at the beginning of a book, but by the middle of it it's rather tedious and by the end get's skimmed through. The reader may also understand by page 200 that the zombies smell bad, and being in proximity to fire is bad for one's health.
Lastly, there is the fact of the ending resembles what the russians dared mock as ""rEaLIsm"", which is just... not enjoyable at all, even to the most masochistic of readers.

Again, don't take this the bad way, you did something most authors can't, and have me binge read your story in 3 days.
Besides the editing, which is a wholly different skill than authorship, your book is of great quality, hence the title of this review.
Creative works require both pride in one's achievement and humility in their weaknesses.

Loved this. The descriptions of army life were suitable detailed and engaging. The overall narrative is satisfying and novel. The characters felt well written.

Would love to read more fiction from the author, either corpse war themed or just Napoleonic army tales. I'm sure they would be just as engaging.
I'd also happily buy the audio book if narrated by Brandon. I was imagining reading large parts of it with your voice!

I tend to prefer audiobooks, but after reading the first 3 chapters for free I couldn't stop thinking about it and knew I had to make a purchase. As someone who normally struggles to make myself finish non-audio books, this one I just couldn't put down and ended up finishing it in just a few days! I'm sure the events and characters of The Corpse War will keep rattling around in my mind for quite some time, as this was one of the most enjoyable pieces of fiction I've read lately. Strongly recommended to anyone interested in the time period, undead stories in general, or just wants a grisly and riveting story to read!

Had me punching the air when the British grenadiers arrived

I devoured this book in 3 sittings (pun not intended)

Absolutely phenomenal. The protagonist is a flawed, yet introspective and enthralling breath of fresh air from most others in zombie/historical fiction and he's grounded for all the, supernatural (and human) brutality around him. It's a paradox of implausible and immersive.

I don't want to spoil anything, but his references to the reader, reflections, the survivor's guilt, PTSD, are so visceral, so telling of the nature of (even this fictional) warfare, all while keeping you submerged in the prose and views of the late 18th century. It read like something out of Dickens at times (with what admittedly little experience I have with his stories)

The black and white, charcoal-style illustrations between the chapters were always delightful and concerning to come across, leaving me wondering what on earth would lead to such scenes.

And I appreciated that little reference to another piece of historical zombie media :)
