Publisher's summary

Gabriel Garrett has faced many challenges.

The battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan, the CIA, several years as a mercenary, and the end of the world among them. But now he faces a challenge none of his training, expertise, or combat experience have prepared him for - fatherhood.

With a new family and new responsibilities, Gabriel decides to leave Hollow Rock and start over in the growing city of Colorado Springs. It is here he believes he can finally leave behind the violence that has always followed him and begin a new chapter in his life. But to get there, he will have to cross the vastness of the American plains, and in a world where the dead walk the earth, no journey is ever easy.

When his caravan is ransacked, Gabriel, his stalwart friends Eric Riordan and Caleb Hicks, and his new family are forced to endure the dangers of the post-Outbreak world on their own. It is here they will face marauders, criminal organizations, corrupt government officials, starvation, and every other danger the wastelands can throw at them. To survive, they will have to rely on all their courage, resourcefulness, and will to fight.

And most importantly, they will have to rely on each other.

Fantastic

I really have enjoyed all of this series of books. They are very engaging, sometimes thrilling, but always leaving me wanting more. When can I get the next book. I want it now! I wish I didn't have to wait.

Does not dissapoint

I've had this book in my library for a while and I finally worked my way to it. I was only disappointed I did not get to it sooner. I usually clean, cook, bake or do garden work when I listen to my audibles but it has to keep me interested and I do my best work when the narration is perfect. I got lots of work done it kept me glued to my headset... Gabe has just learned he is a father. His daughter Sabrina has just arrived and they appear to hit it off. I certainly hope that Mr. Cook has a back story for her because it would be interesting to know just how she acquired her fighting skills. He does so well in giving us a little mystery here and there with the characters and eventually the back stories, even the bad guys have a story. Wth the threat of the Alliance over, the military appears to have the ability to fight and win against large infected hordes and the occasional marauders. It is now much safer and prosperity has come to Hollow Rock. Gabe has just made a big decision; he is leaving to accept a job in Colorado Springs. He has always envied Eric and his family and now he has his own and decides it is time for a change. Although they do run into trouble on the way, it is nothing they can't handle. They arrive, all is well.....then Mr. Cook throws bombshell at us. The end of this latest adventure is the beginning of a new arc in the storyline and it involves Hicks who has evolved into one of the most interesting character in the series. It is a perfect ending to a new beginning.

Another good one!

Loving this series! Thought it couldn't get better but this author out does himself with each book! The narrarator does an awesome job as well. You get sucked in quickly and it hurts to pause or stop listening.

Afterlife could be like this

After going through all the previous books this fits in line with what would be a next action for all the lead characters going for next book in line.
