About this listen
It's not about the zombies; it's about the survivors.
When a meteor obliterates a top-secret government research facility, the world spirals into chaos. The dead walk among the living, and humanity's hope seems lost.
Chalice Hart never imagined she'd lead a band of survivors through the apocalypse. Now, she must guide her rag-tag group to safety, navigating a world where every sanctuary is fleeting, and danger lurks around every corner. As they journey through the ruins of civilization, they gather allies and lose friends, each step fraught with peril.
Their one beacon of hope is Colton, the first survivor they rescued, and the whispered rumors of a cure that could save them all. But just as their fragile optimism begins to take root, a new nightmare emerges: the undead are mutating into something far more terrifying than anything from their darkest childhood tales.
In this heart-pounding race for survival, will Chalice and her group find their haven, or will the world be lost to the relentless hordes of the undead?
The Darkening is a gripping tale of resilience and humanity in the face of unimaginable horror. Prepare to embark on an unforgettable journey where survival is just the beginning.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story
Annie has always had high hopes for her future. But the reality of her life just isn’t measuring up. She loves her fiancé, Greg–doesn’t she? She’s going to get her degree and open her own business–won’t she? Then, a strange old woman shows up outside her house, and she seems to know a lot about Annie. An awful lot. Annie could tell the old woman to get lost. Yet there’s something about her Annie just can’t shake. And what she learns could change her life forever–but is it the life she envisioned?

Nice story but lose the computer
Good story but I do not like a computer with no feeling reading it. Otherwise it was great.

AI is terrible
The AI voice and vocabulary is horrid. If an actual person read the book I would give it a 5.
The story was great not unlike other stories but enough characters that were different. The character development was pretty good.

the narration was really the worst part. The mechanical voice was very distracting. It lacked feeling and felt very unatural.
I did like the general idea of the story but it felt like the author didn't do much in the way of researching the story and certain aspects of a potential apocalypse. It says the story was about the survivors but it failed to cover many potential hardships. The survivors seemed to have it to easy and a lot of opportunities to spice up the story were missed

Human nature
Love the zombie genre and this was spot on, although a little predictable. Pace and action was good. I didn’t not care for computer generated narration, lacking inflection. I enjoyed this listen.

Story was good AI terrible
For the most part storyline wasn’t bad. But the AI was terrible and I hope the message gets across that it might be cheaper but it ruins the experience.

A happy and hopeful ending
Reading using virtual voice is extremely annoying. Please return to real narrators. The story was okay.

AI voice is the worst thing that happened to audio bookstores
Writers need to make sure their work isn’t turned into garbage with this AI reader, was the story good? I have no idea as the voice was putting me to sleep. Avoid these at all costs.
