I got to listen to the audiobook, and I must tell, what I did enjoy in until the end of the world i could have enjoyed so much more if it had been written like this one... I loved the different points of view, having Eric voice and Sylvie and both voice actors very talented into bringing to life all the other characters, and one thing that I really love in Sarah Lyons Flemings characters is that they are so human, they need each other, yeah I wont rest until I have heard all the series, and I think this one is one of the few that is more enjoyable to listen.

highly recommend this book to fans of zombie apocalypse that focus more in survival, human connection, than actual zombie fighting, it is worth I swear!

I love a good zombie apocalypse book and the world Sarah Lyons Fleming created with her previous series “Until the End of the World” was a fun one. It was nice to revisit it with a new set of characters and obstacles. I also know she can be ruthless with the deaths in her books (as it should be in a zombie infested world), so I continue onto the next book scared for every single character we got to know in this one.

I read and loved the Until the End of the World series, so I was eager to try this one. I listened to this via Audible; I had read the previous series on my Kindle. The audio took a little getting used to. I felt that the female narrator overdid it a bit during any sections with zombies. Otherwise she was great. The male narrator did well, except he's not so great at child voices. The story was fun. I plan to binge on the rest of the series the way I did with the other. 😁

Read "Until the End of the World"? Then you'll recognize Eric even though you don't know him (yet). Hitch a ride with Eric & Sylvie, Guillermo (sigh!), Maria & Jorge, Grace, Eli & Indy, as they navigate the zompoc landscape of Manhattan. A great story with heart and heartache, love, zombies... really, what more do you need?

3 Stars for Story, 4 Stars for Narration by Therese Plummer & Luke Daniels

Mini-Review:

Yet another zombie story without a lot of suspense or mystery but a strong cast of characters that you can't help but like.

The narrators did a great job on taking on the various characters in the story. Plummer did the female voices and the Daniels brought the male voices to life. It's not one of those jobs where they take a chapter each. It's actually mixed between the two. The book splits POV's between Syl & Eric. I much preferred Eric's accounts over Syl's. It was even better once they were in the same place but that may have more to do the romantic in me. =)

Totally fitting read for Halloween.

I was so happy to find out that a spin-off series had finally started, linking all of us again with the character we thought we lost and with some new people I quite quickly established emotional connections to. It is again a great book, and even more so as a audio-book. I very much enjoyed it and will be re-listening it for sure in the nearest future. Will be getting the new books in the series as soon as they will become available, and hope that the audio version will keep being outstanding!
