About this listen

Why do some societies collapse into lawless savagery while others prove resilient and lasting?

On Zero Day of the first and last cyberwar in human history, the internet went dark, transport and power grids collapsed and cities began to starve, showing just how vulnerable the world could be to a targeted campaign of online sabotage. This final instalment of this prescient epic of civilisation collapse finds the small ragtag band of survivors come together to face a new, but eerily familiar threat - the rise of a fascist militia among the ruins of a failing country.

With American Kill Switch, John Birmingham’s End of Days trilogy comes to a high-octane, thrilling conclusion.

A well written, well narrated and very plausible story about the collapse of civilisation and the subsequent rise of a warlord militia.

And the fightback of course. Never forget about the fightback.

I loved books 1 and 2 and my expectations for this final book may have been too high. It’s still enjoyable, just not as gripping as the first two. Everything is tidied up pretty well although I was a bit disappointed in some of the plot decisions. It may be more realistic to have some of the good guys die off but I would have been perfectly happy for them all coincidentally survive and thrive. Ah well.

Tidy

Loved the story. A good ending but would like an account of the world afterward! Perhaps another series?

Please write book 4

Enjoyed the first two books very much but this third and presumably final instalment was the finest.

And long reign Rupert Degas. His narration is second to none.

Perfect finale

It’s not often that a writer has me on the edge of my seat actually stressed and worried for the characters but this story did. The last couple of hours left me shattered ,elated and exhausted.

The combination of a rocking story line and the performance of the narrator was excellent.

Just Wow

well-performed, slow build throught out series but worth it. Builds great charecters and even the bad guys you understand their journey and decisions. Honestly a great original story.

great series, really enjoyed it!

Great story, but over the top cringe moments with descriptions and extreme stereotypes in characters..

Decent but a bit of overkill with descriptions

I loved this series. Couldn’t put it down!!
I started listening after downloading the first book for free, then there was no stopping!! I got through the next two books within the week, it’s so different to what I normally listen to. Highly recommend!!

Brilliant!
