About this listen

The Death will find you... Devin Chase was just living his life, when the world changed in an instant. In the matter of a week a deadly virus known as The Death ravages the world killing over 90% of those infected. After six months in a self-imposed quarantine, he emerges into a new world. As he travels, he discovers others like him who are immune, but he also discovers that the world he knew is gone. It has been replaced with a savage and brutal one where the only rule is kill or be killed. Lori Roberts a mother, wife and business woman finds her world turned upside down from The Death. Her and what remains of her family travel to a FEMA camp for help, but what starts as hope for her turns into horror once she discovers what is really happening.

Separated by thousands of miles but connected by the same desire, both Devin and Lori will do what is necessary to survive.

You know that's it's time to pack in when you don't care what happens to the characters.
Plastic characters, badly written. Was looking for light escapism but there are limits to how low I will go. Was about to endure but when I realised that it was a trilogy I lost the will to hang in there. Not sure what the guy who penned the introduction is on about. It is beyond awful. A child could write this. The narration is truly terrible. The female accents were the worst that I have ever had to endure. No woman could sound that annoying. Regret listening to a few hours. Delete, move on, life is too short.

Death would be a welcome release to this dribble

I found the story line really really frustrating and unimaginative, the detail of some of things described is unnecessary (eg the mark grenade or the tactical names of helicopters). It felt like the dialogue was only used to stretch the story out as it was slow and pointless conversations between people that seemed so unintelligible it was painful to listen to (and at times made me angry and I had to skip 30 seconds ahead).
I feel this audio book is really for the dimwitted and naive - people who can't see the obvious story line and can be mesmerised by detail that's just simply not needed.

The narration was good, the narrator made best of his voice using different voices for people, however, all the women seemed to sound very similar, there is a conversation between two women that is very confusing because of this.

All in all, seriously don't bother. Not worth the effort.
