Publisher's Summary

She thought she was prepared for the end of the world...until it actually came.

Alex Duncan is a mother, a sister - and the daughter of a doomsday prepper. She always thought her father was insane, raving about an apocalypse she never believed in, but when a plague hits the United States and the dead no longer stay dead, Alex discovers heeding her deceased father’s advice is what will keep her family alive. Before he died, Alex’s father created a compound in Montana just in case situations like this arose.

Hell has arrived on Earth.

The dead walk, hungry for human flesh. Living in a highly populated city like Las Vegas makes the reality of the plague imminent to Alex. With little time to spare, Alex must make split-second decisions to prevent her family from being devoured. Facing the end, Alex has three goals: Escape Las Vegas. Get to the compound. Survive.

As the outside world crumbles and grows darker, Alex faces adversity from not just the infected, but the uninfected as well. Government assistance is nowhere in sight, and rumors fly that the nation’s only solution to the growing plague is execution.

Not everyone will outlast the plague. Doomsday is here. Will Alex be up to the challenge, or fall, and rise again as one of the undead?

Bonus! Includes Alone, a Sundown series novella.

Short version: terrible book

Why is it terrible? I wanted to drop my phone into a trash compactor after the narrator said”infected “ for the 10,000ths time. Seemed like it could be a good story if someone else wrote it.

Good story but I’m not invested

I enjoyed the story, listened to it in one go but I don’t think I’ll bother with book 2. Just didn’t care enough about the characters

Reasonable but was distracted by fixable issues

Story was reasonable and narrator did a reasonable job. However this book really needed an editor to persuade the author to remove the repetitive statements that occurred throughout. The book would have been a lot shorter without it. I prefer show don't tell, but unfortunately this author did not trust the reader enough to follow the set up in the story, and just kept telling us the same thing. if you get distracted during audio books however this might be a plus for you. also, some inconsistencies in terminology was distracting. Finally not sure if it's an idiom from where the author is from, but using "drug" instead of "dragged" particularly distracting as I have never heard it used that way. If these issues were fixed I would continue with the next book.
