  • Summary

  • Set on a large ranch in rural upstate New York, it’s early days for the eccentric group of people who call themselves “The Zeta Family” - quite possibly the next big cult phenomenon.

    Katie (Amy Goodmurphy), our central protagonist, is an aspiring reporter who has decided to infiltrate the compound, and her future success as a journalist depends entirely on her ability to win the confidence of Zeta Doug (Kevin Nealon), the likable spiritual leader of the group.

    He’s like a cross between Hunter S. Thompson and George R. R. Martin, with a little too much sci-fi in his head and acid in his blood stream. Like all good cult leaders, Doug is elusive and mysterious, and Katie quickly begins to wonder if this cult is truly just a gnarly collection of weirdos hanging out in the woods, or is there something else going on here?

Absolutely original story

I can't but like this whole plot and storytelling. Easy to follow and the actors did wonderful job to create their character. No dull moments or dragging alongs.

The Zeta Family is full of humour and exciting twists. Recommended.

what a refreshing twisty tale

I was gripped with this story from the beginning and loved the sassy female storytellers. I like being surprised and this story did just that. it was a nice change to finish a story with a smile on my face.

So good

At the beginning I thought I wouldn't get into the story as this is not my sort of story interest. I was surprised how much it drew me in. It was a good story, also fun & good humour. Read extremely well too.

Wasn't expecting to enjoy this as much as I did

After a slow but interesting start with some pretty unlikeable characters, this show turns into something wonderful.
Really enjoyed my time in the Zeta Family cult.

fantastic!

this is a quick review but I have to say what a fantastic book! The voice actors were absolutely brilliant and the storyline was superb with only the hint of Sci-fi.
