Publisher's summary

Trapped in bumper-to-bumper traffic, Lilian is caught up in a maelstrom of death when the outbreak hits Johannesburg...a city numbering in the millions.

With no one to rely on but herself, she has to find a way off the bloody streets before it's too late. But with a six-month-old baby and a hysterical toddler in tow, escape seems unlikely.

Battered and abused, Maria looks back upon her life with husband Rolf with loathing. Caught in a prison from which she cannot escape, she's powerless to change her destiny and forever bound to a man she hates. Until the virus grants her an unexpected chance at revenge.

All it takes is one mistake. As the sun sets against the backdrop of the African veldt and living nightmares walk the streets in the shape of their loved one's bodies, humanity's last hope rests in the hands of ordinary men and women called to do extraordinary things.

Survive Another Day is the prequel to Last Another Day, book one of the Dangerous Days series. It delivers eight nerve-wracking stories that will show you how it all began.

I liked it

the accents were tough to follow and kind of distracting. story was good though and I look forward to more

Second times a charm.

This is my second time, listening to the standalone novella. Just as good as the first time. Just a quick bite-size (no pun intended) glimpse at the beginning of a zombie apocalypse.

great read

so far this book peak my interest i will see what book 2 has to offer

fantastic!

performance was very good. very well written. the story was too short but I liked it very much!

Provided great background on the characters

It is a short and quick listen, but it is captivating. A collection of short stories with a select group of characters from the series. I thought it was really interesting to read about the beginning of the apoc for these characters that were introduced a little later in the timeline. It filled up a few gaps that I didn't even notice existed in Book 1, it is worth listening to and understanding a little more about the characters.

Too Short

It was really good, but too short. It left me wanting more! You get multiple short stories of different characters within this novella.

more storyline

it's really no good ending with this one. I wish I had a little bit more storyline

survive another day

thoroughly enjoyable apocalyptic story well-shaped characters beautiful accents solid storyline I would genuinely love to have more

Preformance was stunning

The story was engaging enough, a bit cliche as far as zombie stories goes. The preformance is really what held my attention and will probably be what makes me get the next book.

Good narrator but terrible accents

The story is well written but is let down by the abysmally bad South African accents used by the narrator. White South Africans sound like a mix of Australian and British with a vague parody of an Afrikaans politician, and black South Africans sound like a poor impersonation of a west African accent.

Greg Tremblay is a very good narrator when he used his normal accent, and he clearly tried hard to get the sense of the character, but his accent skills let him down. Why not get a real South Africans to narrate the accents?

I loved the idea of reading a book that takes place in my home town, but I felt a bit let down that it didn’t really say much about Johannesburg. It could actually have been set in pretty much any city.

I’ve bought the rest of the series because I enjoyed the story... I’ll just have to grit my teeth when I hear the accents.
