Chilling. I listened to the audiobook narrated by Adam Sims, Nigel Pilkington, and others. It was very immersive.

It has weird pro-Israel stuff but apart from that it’s a very entertaining look at a zombie apocalypse. Diverse characters and scenarios with some fantastic world building .

All things considered, it is a really great book. Writen in a particular way (resembeling an article), that's why it can appear boring to some. The constant switching between characters was a bit disatracting, but it gave a chance to show the situation from different angles.
