Publisher's summary

Quite simply, what could go wrong did go wrong. Given the choice between assuming leadership of a situation that is pure chaos, where the National Guard is forced into a position of going to war against a trapped and possibly infected citizenry, the President chooses to punt. He knows what enforcing a quarantined zone will require: the massacre of tens of thousands of terrified people demanding to get out, and there is no way he's going to have his name and legacy sullied. Suddenly a states' rights champion, he leaves the situation under the control of the Governor of New York, but not before hampering the men on the lines with rules of engagement that are meant to sooth journalists instead of creating a possibility of victory.

Tasked with the impossible, General Collins, commander of the 42nd Infantry Division is in a meeting with the Governor when the perimeter of the quarantine zone is ruptured. When his command post is overrun he's grinding his teeth, sitting in front of the President as he smiles for the cameras, makes jokes and demands answers. And in the dead of night when 100,000 infected persons slug it out toe-to-toe with the fractured remains of his division, he is the only reinforcement available to shoulder a rifle.

Inside the Zone, the survivors of Day One are dying by the score as Dr. Lee and her friends, hopelessly fight their way from one end of the Zone to the other, desperate to escape. But there is no way out except through death at the ripping teeth of the undead. Striving to put that horrible moment off for as long as possible, she finds herself trapped alongside Anna Holloway and Lieutenant - they are three scorpions in a bottle...a bottle surrounded by countless undead.

OUTSTANDING follow up to a phenomenal start!

What did you love best about The Apocalypse Crusade 2?

The story picks up where the first edition ended, keep em coming (don't get confused by other titles).

All done

A great and enjoyable audio book on to book 3 with lots of laughs and action.

Much better than the 1st

I had a hard time getting through the 1st book in this series, but I felt like I got a payoff in this book. This book had a great mix of likable, relatable, annoying, forgettable, and despicable characters. I'm now excited to start the 3rd.

Locked me in

Any additional comments?

This is an equal if not even better than book one (still undecided as I enjoyed them both). Great story development, great twists and great detail.

I particularly enjoy how this story develops for it is set in the first few days of the plague and not jump to later. This makes the book vastly different to many in the genre and I therefore recommend it to my fellow Audible book lovers.

The detail on the make up of the virus, the characters and the - what I will call un-rushed story line - makes this book a great listen.

Great read for dog walking

I'm looking forward to Apocalypse III. Great narration and performance. I want to hear what happens next. Is there another coming?

Great read! well, actually a great listen

I plan on reading everything that Peter Meredith writes. everything has been great so far

Wonderful story telling.

I know a detailed opinion if this book is what people want to read cause I look for the same; but I can't give you that. I know that if you like horror, zombies, action and a great detailed plot line, you'll get this book.

I want more

better than the first. nail bitting thriller that leaves you wanting more. on to book three

An excellent book! Riveting!!!

This man writes an exceptionally good story! Much better than any book I’ve read in quite a long time! It’s a “can’t stop till the end” type and then you’re sad it’s over and eagerly waiting for the next one!!! I recommend it! You won’t be disappointed!!!

pretty good

I would recommend the book if you are between books and need something to hold you over
