About this listen
The World is Dead. The Hunt Has Begun.
It started as a calculated attack—terrorist squads infected with a deadly virus unleashed on the U.S. and Europe. But no one predicted what came next. The virus mutated, spreading like wildfire, consuming entire nations. Millions died. The unlucky ones came back.
Mindless. Rabid. Driven by a single, relentless instinct—to hunt and kill the few who remain.
Hunter, a battle-hardened Iraq War veteran, was ready to leave violence behind. But when civilization collapses overnight, he finds himself back in the fight of his life. Teaming up with a band of desperate survivors, he flees the cities, searching for refuge in the countryside. But the infected aren’t the only threat.
As law and order crumble, ruthless survivors begin preying on the weak, turning the apocalypse into a brutal battleground. Now, Hunter must lead the few who still have something to fight for. Against the dead. Against the living. Against the end of the world itself.
The infection is spreading. The survivors are outnumbered. And the real nightmare has only just begun.

Story
It has been a year since the initial outbreak of an infection resulting from a failed terrorist attack. No corner of the globe was spared. Millions simply died during the early days of the outbreak, many more survived with most of those survivors turned into permanently brain-damaged feral creatures. All forms of modern society had collapsed, governments no longer functioned, and electric lights and running water become a thing of the past. A handful of survivors with natural immunity to the virus are alone in a world that now belongs to the infected. Hunter Ashcroft, a wounded vet of the ...

For 30 years, they have avoided the outbreak of walking death that has consumed America's heartland. They have secured a small compound near the ruins of Tulsa, Oklahoma. Isolated from the world, they have remained blissfully unaware of what lies outside in the region known as the Dead Lands. Until now. Led by a military vet who's seen better days, the inexperienced offspring of the original survivors form a small expedition to explore the wastelands around them. Small pockets of humanity hide in the shadows: some scared, some mad, all dangerous. This is the New World.

Didn’t really hold my attention
I don’t know if it was the AI narration, or the story itself. But this book didn’t hold my attention. The AI use of nine hundred eleven in place of 911 really irked me! Another glaring issue with AI voice narration is their failure to convey proper emotion. Stating that a character yelled, or screamed, or any type of emotion is lost.

Virtual voice was awful
I tried to hang with this story but just couldn’t. The virtual voice has zero inflection and mispronounced so many words that I had to go back multiple times to figure out what was being said.
The story had promise but the narration killed it so I stopped mid book.
No more virtual voice narrators for me, it horrid.

Strong characters, good storyline
Not a fan of Virtual Voice AKA AI. The male voice itself is fine, however the endless mispronunciations and missing nuances to common phrases are annoying and take away from an otherwise great book. Will definitely continue the series.

Could of been different
Overall, the story was good. Where the story fell short was with the narrator. I think they should’ve spent a little extra money and had an actual real-life breathing human narrate. The story was too robotic and lacked motion. When it came down to crucial inflections of voice or scenes in the book was very mechanical, not realistic on how people would actually talk. That would have made it a 5 start bold for me.

Starts Off Strong
So the narration is what caused me to stop a few hours in. This is my first virtual narration book. The book is written in such a way that only one person is talking, acting, thinking, or focusing at a time. Good for setting up a story and character development. When having to interact with others is where the narration lacks. There is no change in pitch or cues to differentiate between characters. I think the story would be solid with a person or multiple virtual narration.

Stereotypical Zombie Fantasy That Unintentionally Satirizes Itself
The stereotypes in this novel are so overbearing that it's almost unintentional satire. We have the alpha-male former soldier/cop who is constantly thinking about honor who treats his female sidekick as mentally challenged, the Arab terrorists willing to kill the entire world in furtherance of their Jihad, the Black man with a unusual name which is commented on about 4 times, the female who is concerned with hooking up during the apocalypse after she reads "50 shades of gray", the team member who doesn't take orders and will be the foil to the main character because he wants to be team leader, the stereotypical pilot, and on and on. It's just non-stop basic. I did enjoy the detail that went into describing how the plague is released and the military brass' discussion regarding their plans to deal with it. The AI narration is awful, even mispronouncing the main characters names, but I got used to it.
