Reviews

[Eve Loves Books · Rating 4 out of 5]

Wanted: Undead or Alive by Joey Webb is an engaging and gritty start to the series that pulls you in quickly with its action-forward pacing and darker tone. The world-building is clear and immersive, and the story wastes no time establishing stakes, danger, and momentum.

What I appreciated most is how easily it sets the foundation for what feels like a much larger saga. The characters are intriguing, the premise is solid, and the plot keeps moving without getting bogged down. A strong opening installment that leaves you curious about where the story and its characters will go next.
