About this listen
The end of everything was her beginning....
It's November 2022. The human race has been wiped out by the 6DM virus (Six Days Maximum - the longest you've got before your organs disintegrate and you melt from the inside out). The end of the world as we know it.
Yet someone is still alive. Alone in a new world of burning cities, rotting corpses and ravenous rats, one woman has survived. A woman who has spent her whole life compromising what she wants and hiding how she feels to meet other people's expectations. From her career to her relationships, to what she wears and where she lives, she's made a lifetime of decisions to fit what other people want her to be.
But with no one else left, who will she become now that she's completely alone?

Gripping and visceral
I was engrossed by the terrifying journey the main character goes on as she survives the aftermath of a devastating pandemic.
I haven’t read a lot of apocalyptic or dystopian fiction but I might read more after this one. I didn’t feel that I got the full picture of the main character as a person before the pandemic via the flashbacks - but maybe that’s the point.
On a side note I was horrified by the descriptions at the zoo and all the animals left behind to starve or fend for themselves. I had to skip some of those sections and probably would have stopped listening if she’d left Lucky behind.
Impressive debut by the author and fantastic narration.

much more than I expected
I thoroughly enjoyed this story. It was much more than I had expected and I had to rethink my opinion of the main character several times as more details were revealed. The narrator did an amazing job. Highly recommended.

Last one at the party
Wow! What a great book. I have a real liking for dystopian and apocalyptic novels and this didn’t let me down. It is very different to those I have read to date but I really did like it.
Listening to it now as Omicron finally gets a grip on NZ (with strict border control and lockdown, we have been very lucky not to have too many community cases of the other two variants) it made the plight very real.
Thoroughly recommend.

Really enjoyed it
I thought the character development was really good. The ending neatly tied things up but left enough mystery that I'm still thinking about it. I thought the world building was solid and would be worth a sequel either based around the same character or a different one set within the same world.

Surprisingly excellent
Not normally my type of book however I was hooked right from the first chapter! Couldn’t stop listening. The narration was one of the best I’ve heard on audible and will definitely be looking for other titles from the author and narrator!

That was great
Disappointing ending but quite fitting. Thought the narration was excellent. I’d love to read more by this author.
