Summary

The horde is always hungry...

The zombie apocalypse has begun, and Major Cordell McDaniels is given the most important mission of his career: Lead a Special Forces team into New York City to rescue the one man who can stop the ghastly virus that reanimates the dead.

But as a growing army of flesh-eating corpses takes over the streets and a violent storm renders airborne extraction impossible, McDaniels struggles to find a way out of the Big Apple. The odds of anyone getting out alive plummet further when slaughtered members of his own Special Forces team join the ranks of the gathering dead... with their military skills intact!

Ultimately unsatisfying

Far too many technical terms used at the expense of any real character development. It became boring and predictable.

Poor narration but a real good story

Where does The Gathering Dead rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This is an action packed story of the zombie genre

What other book might you compare The Gathering Dead to, and why?

Day by Day

Would you be willing to try another one of Joseph Morton’s performances?

Nope

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Nope, which was a shame as the story is great.

Any additional comments?

In order to listen to this, I had to reduce the speed of the narration. Jay Snyder would have been a much better choice to narrate this story.
