About this listen

In the zombie apocalypse, your worst enemy may be yourself.

Rose Winter has enough problems. With a marriage going down the tubes and a dreaded anniversary party on the horizon, the last thing she needs is the zombie apocalypse. She wanted to get drunk and sing karaoke, not murder her undead neighbors. It’s clear the party’s over, however, now Rose has more problems - a missing husband, an overbearing houseguest, and keeping her family alive.

Tom Jensen has inflexible rules. Rule number one? Don’t deviate from the plan. But when his life is overturned in the space of minutes, his plans die along with everything else. The world is finished, the future is uncertain, and survival means living in the last place he’d planned to be. Maybe his rules weren’t meant to be broken, but if he can’t change his tune, he risks losing the one thing he has left - his daughter.

Craig Matthews has a mission: get to Oregon. Doable, maybe, if he could bring himself to leave his apartment. With his food and water near gone and death closer than ever, a chance encounter may lead to finding his friends - if he can first find his courage.

Unfortunately, the new world doesn’t always mean leaving old problems behind, and as the West Coast succumbs to the virus, the survivors face more than the undead - they face themselves. But in an existence where fences offer dubious safety and zombies certain danger, people may save you in more ways than one.

✫✫ 4.5 Stars ✫✫

I knew when I started this that was I going to be sad when it was over and I have to wait for the next book but I love the world this author has created and there was no way I could wait. This series feels very different for me from the other two. I was very surprised with how little excitement & death this book had and that makes me think the next book is going to be a blood bath lol. I liked getting to know the characters and definitely had a few that it took me while to like but I came around for most of them (there are a few I won't be sad when they are gone LOL). I liked that no one in this series is perfect, no one is a hero from the beginning and they all had/have a lot of growing to do to survive this new world. Now I will whine for a year until this next book comes out ;)

The narration was good, no one stood out more than the others for me, they all came together well.

A great long read

I have enjoyed other books by this author but found myself falling in love with this one. The characters are all unique and the addition of family turmoil during an apocalypse added to the emotions written in the pages. Even if you’re not a major zombie fan, it’s a great listen!!

It's a Winner

Loved this book and looking forward to enjoying the rest of the series. Only recommendation I would give is a little less cussing though given the situations I get it ... but would enjoy it even more with less cussing.
