About this listen

In May of 2004 the dead return to life and begin to hunt the living. Within a few weeks nations have fallen and the few survivors are scattered and desperate. Rise follows a group of survivors on their journey through the apocalyptic Canadian Rockies, the desolate and empty lands of northern British Columbia and Alberta.

Editor reviews

Brian Williams escapes Calgary with his sister Sarah, attempting to escape the marauding zombie uprising by fleeing across Canada into the mountains in this first book of Gareth Wood's Rise series. Told in journal entries, Brian describes his struggles, his relationships with fellow survivors, the meet-ups with the military, and the rescue missions, all while trying to escape the undead horde and learning how to navigate this post-apocalyptic landscape. Jeff Woodman has a refreshing everyman quality that makes him relatable to listeners, creating an easy identification with Brian as an ordinary person thrust into a terrifying and strange new reality.
