Publisher's summary
A small group of survivors find themselves trapped and abandoned in Charlotte, NC as the city around them is overrun by the dead. After realizing they have been left behind to fend for themselves, they strike out on their own in a desperate attempt to reach the safety of a refugee camp on the outskirts of the city. Along the way they discover that the dead aren’t the only things they have to fear in this suddenly terrifying new world, the forces meant to protect them are now just as dangerous as the zombies they were sent to fight.

Story
It began as a terrorist attack against the United States and Europe. Middle Eastern terrorist squads were infected with a virus engineered to strike at the heart of the Western world in the name of Islam and the Holy Jihad. When the virus mutated without warning, the infection took on a dimension and scale beyond any rational explanation. Spreading across the globe like wildfire, it left millions dead in its wake. Worse than the initial body counts are those that suffered catastrophic and irreversible brain damage. The infected retain nothing of their former selves and instead they are ...

Great story wack AI Voice.
I can respect the starving artist and using any means of getting your book on Audible, but the AI voice over makes the story mundane and slow. Author should’ve spent a little extra hiring a narrator or narrating himself. Won’t recommend due to AI narration and mispronunciation of simple words.

It's a Decent Short Story
The AI narration is ok for AI, but a person could have done a better job. The constant use of the 3 letter title in front of one if the main character's name was irritating and served no purpose. Otherwise, the characters are well developed and the story is good. Typical zombie take with no surprises, but it was a good listen.
