About this listen

For 30 years, they have avoided the outbreak of walking death that has consumed America's heartland. They have secured a small compound near the ruins of Tulsa, Oklahoma. Isolated from the world, they have remained blissfully unaware of what lies outside in the region known as the Dead Lands. Until now.

Led by a military vet who's seen better days, the inexperienced offspring of the original survivors form a small expedition to explore the wastelands around them. A biologist, an anthropologist, a photographer, a salvage expert - all are hoping to build a new future from the rubble. But the infected are still out there. Stalking. Feeding. Spreading like a virus. Wild animals roam the countryside, hunting prey. Small pockets of humanity hide in the shadows: some scared, some mad, all dangerous. This is the New World. If the explorers want it, they'll have to take it. Dead or alive.

I love the original idea for how the outbreak started, totally something I could believe happening in real life.

plenty of twists and turns and some really unexpected. I'm hooked and off to buy the next instalment.

great free listen!!!

The characters in the main story were just very ‘wet’ - impossible to believe that they would survive a spot of heavy rain, much less the ZA!

The story about psychic zombies, etc. was just ridiculous.

Goodness knows what the Monopoly one was meant to be about- the idea that any mother would behave in such a ludicrous manner in the ZA beggars belief.

I found the story about Kevin and Mindy annoying, frustrating and quite sad in equal measure. I dislike unhappy endings, so even though it was the best written- by quite a margin- I can’t say I liked that either.

The narrator can’t do female voices at all, which is a shame as there are lots of female characters in these stories!

Not very good
