About this listen

Tucked away in a high-tech Tactical Operations Center, inside an isolated safehouse in the Horn of Africa, sits Agency analyst Zack Altringham. He is Kenyan-born, Princeton-educated, badly burnt-out - and condemned by his language and cultural skills to a lifetime of fighting America's shadow counter-terror wars. But when another mystery epidemic breaks out, terrifyingly quickly it reaches a tipping point and chaos descends - and Zack and his team (including two former Team Six SEALs) are trapped between the millstones of the sick and the dying on one side, and heavily armed militias on the other. Soon their "safe" house is in flames, and their only remaining option is to get in their up-armored SUV and try to escape the imploding gravity well of the city, to the safety of the American military base in Djibouti. But by then, will there be anywhere safe left on Earth to escape to?

Loving every book in the series. The narrator enhances an already great piece of writing.

It's a great mix of SOF operations in an apocalyptic zombie world.

I particularly like the phrase 'adapt and overcome'

Awesome!

Brilliant prequel to the series! I decided to get this after book 5 while waiting for my next credit to start, wow I wish I read it first, it's a fantastic prequel to the ZA as it unfolded. Storyline and non stop action constantly engaggdd my imagination. Loving main character Zac and Bexter... I hope they get linked up in the next books!!!! I sure they will 👍

I stayed away from this series as a sample was R.C Bray doing an english accent and not quite getting there...However its few and far between English characters are not really the main focus , the yanks are..and its getting much better ....
I highly recommend...

Loved this book from the get go, it was well written and as always narrated to perfection by R.C.Bray. Can't wait to download the entire series now to get back into the action.

If you like this kind of thing (and I have discovered that I do) then you'll like this. Good, fast paced zombie action seen through the eyes of a Special Ops team with excellent narration from RC Bray. This short book gives the background to the main "Arisen" series and can be used as a good taster.

However, it's worth considering not reading this one first. I read it between books 5 and 6 as an example and I would suggest it's better this way as the back story means more by then. From other reviews it seems this does stand alone but I genuinely enjoyed going back to the story that until then had just been hinted at.

Your choice of course, but either way it's a credit well spent.

Good prequel, read it any time!
