Publisher's Summary

A prehistoric virus. An infectious primal hunger. Some discoveries are better left buried...

James would much rather hang out with his friends than go hunting with his father, the survivalist. What starts out as another uneventful trip, however, takes a hard turn for the worse when they’re attacked without explanation.

Panic-stricken and running for his life and trying to get back to his family, James and a handful of other survivors are forced to fight an enemy they cannot beat on grounds they do not know.

The odds are not in their favor, but if they want to survive, they must venture deep into the deadly unknown, right down to the heart of his ravenous horde.

Dead State: The Complete Boxset is an action-packed survival story focusing on fortitude, strength of character, and the power of community. If you like spine-crawling suspense mixed with post-apocalyptic grit, this is an edge-of-your seat tale you can’t afford to miss!

Everyone sounds the same..

Tried and tried, but if you get distracted you don’t know who the chapter is about. Will not return it, will definitely try again. Normally I would slow down or speed up the narration, sometimes that helps, but not this time.
My friend raves about this series so will try again

Disappointing

Storyline isn’t bad but the actual writing is fairly juvenile. I did not find it at all immersive and was super aware of clunky descriptions, and immature and obvious use of adjectives. The narrator was also not helpful, as his delivery is just not great. In comparison to many post-apocalyptic and science fiction that I listen to, this is weak. Although I’ve bought the boxed set, I don’t think I can bare to finish it.
