Summary

This exciting audio drama is based on an immensely popular podcast that has received hundreds of positive reviews and has had over four million downloads - and counting.

For Army Reserve soldier Michael Cross, the world as he knows it ends in an instant. One minute he’s in college, and the next rioters are roaming the highway around him, breaking into cars and literally tearing people apart. This is the day the dead walk. This is the world of We’re Alive.

The first season features 12 chapters packing performances and sound effects that rival movies and prove that modern audio drama is undead and well. Join our survivors as they band together, struggle to fortify a safe haven known as the Tower, and discover that zombies are far from the worst thing in a post apocalyptic Los Angeles, where the rules of human decency no longer apply.

Little food. Little water. Little hope. Who is lucky enough to say "We're Alive"?

Critic reviews

We’re Alive is a modern rendition of an old-school medium. Maintaining a style that is both retro and contemporary, the radio drama will give horror fans the campy, kitschy style they like, but it also provides a variety of characters and development to keep general audiences engaged…Despite not being able to see the action, the excitement and intensity is still sustained through score and sound design. In some ways, the lack of visuals to accompany the audio creates more suspense. The narrator controls how much the audience knows, slowly teasing out information. Accompanying the drama are sparse moments of comedic relief…Expressing a keen awareness of the zombie subgenre, many of the jokes come from familiar scenarios and tropes of zombie stories.” (Examiner.com)

Brilliant must have

The voice acting was brilliant, the music perfect and the story gripping. everything comes around to be a masterpiece. if you like Aliens, Silent hill, Resident Evil, World War Z, Mountain Man, you'll love this one.

Holy sweet Jesus

YOU MUST LISTEN TO THIS!
This is the best audible book I’ve listened to. It was fantastic. It’s so visceral you feel as if your there fighting with them. I laughed and cried and was scared out of my bloody skin. What a ride! I have no idea why there isn’t thousands of reviews on this book. It’s amazing.

Good quality

I liked it but some voices are very similar and so not always easy to tell who is talking

By far the best zombie movie I've never seen.

Downloaded on a whim and was hooked from the get go.

Charecters act like real people and don't fall in to the tropes and clichés of other zombie based media, story is compelling, fully acted out with sfx and a large voice cast make it so much more engaging than a straight up narration.

Can't recommend enough.

Outstanding!

From the outset this story has been expertly put together,with exceptional results. Not only is the story very well acted and produced, it's very easy to submerge yourself and loose yourself in an apocalyptic world. The depth of sound is also tip top, enhanced by listening at night with head phones. Strongly recommend to any zombie fan. Thank you.

We're alive

Has a good story line and is fast and keeps the interest up. The characters are both believable and have their own personalities a good listen and would recommend . Now going to listen to the next part
