About this listen

Cassie Forrest could almost believe life at Kingdom Come Farm is perfect, with Adrian and her friends at her side and spring on the way. The spring thaw also means millions of defrosting zombies, however, and if the past year has taught her anything, it's that life in this new world is highly imperfect.

When Safe Zones throughout the country begin to disappear and the zombies at the fences grow in number, Cassie clings to the hope that if she has the people she loves most, it will be all right. But the highly imperfect world makes only one guarantee - zombies never die, never stop and are never satiated.

Love this story from book one to the next I just purchased. Had to hold the tears many times look like a maniac tearing up in traffic.
Thanks for the journey so far

Great books

I would never class myself as a fan of zombie stories but I do like a tale of post apocalyptic survivors and this is a good one. Some really nice characters and relationships. And I love Julia Whelan's narration.

Very enjoyable

Great story, love the characters.

This series of books and up there with my fav's

The story continues a pace, but be prepared for sad times ahead.
Grief is well described and just when you've had enough, the person starts to recover. There are no happy endings, though there is hope for the future. Can't wait to listen to book 3!

Be prepared!

What made the experience of listening to And After the most enjoyable?

This followed on brilliantly from books 1 and 1.5. It still has many twists and turns and the story keeps you hooked.

What was one of the most memorable moments of And After?

The most memorable will be a spoiler for book 1 and 1.5 but when you've read it you'll know!

Which character – as performed by Julia Whelan – was your favourite?

Cassie the main character - you feel all her emotional ups and downs

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Absolutely, made and laugh and cry.

Any additional comments?

Again this is an amazing book and so totally unexpected. I'm not into zombies so didn't expect to enjoy it but it is brilliant. the story keeps you hooked and you are desperate to know the outcome, lots of twists and turns. Even if you don't like zombies you'll love this book.

Amazing can't wait for book 3!

Julia Whelan is a good narrator- she gets better with the male voices as the novel goes on.

Unlike the City series, this is a better blend of action and domesticity, but the fact that most people don't act to protect themselves is unrealistic, as is the insistence on treating under-18s as children. In the event of a zombie apocalypse, everyone except toddlers and babies would be working and learning how to survive! Similarly, no one would be babysitting Bits and tolerating temper tantrums!

On a related note, I am not sure why everyone is planting and canning when they know huge herds are sweeping northwards!


Apart from these quibbles, the willingness to kill off major characters makes a welcome change from similar novels. Cassie is also a more developed and sympathetic character than Eric and Sylvie in the City series. Penny is whiny and pathetic but doesn't make many appearances in the main plot.

I am not expecting any major surprises in the last novel of the series, but am sufficiently invested to spend a credit!

Much Better Than The City Series

excellent story and some really tear jerking moments. Julia Whelan's performance is also excellent, she really brings the story alive with the different character voices and emotional delivery. Cant wait to start the 3rd book!

Excellent 2nd book in the series
