Humanity's most fearsome enemy is no longer death. Alpha and Marsoc meet their match. Lurking in the bush is the dark shadow cast by the operators - a terrifying force every bit their equal in skill, ferocity, and sheer resolve...but utterly unconstrained by humanity, compassion, or brotherhood. Now, to complete their mission and save the world, the operators will have to pay with their lives, or their souls, or possibly both.

After recovering Patient Zero, Alpha must escape Africa to end the ZA once and for all. But they can feel the hot breath of a reinforced and vengeful Spetsnaz team on their necks - and there can be no escaping the reckoning of an ultimate sniper showdown between Ali and Vasily, and an incomparably brutal iron-cage Texas death match between Predator and Misha. For the first time, all the teams will come together and must fight as brothers for any chance of making it back to Britain. And only one thing is certain - not everyone is walking away from this one.

Even reinforced by Jameson and the exhausted Royal Marines of One Troop, it's a doomed delaying action at best - and the last choke point in the entire ZA faces an incoming tide of dead stretching to the ends of the Earth. Meanwhile, hunkered down at CentCom, the unified ranks of our heroes, led by Ali and Fick, work furiously to fortify and reinforce what will be humanity's final fallback position - forever.

The world's last floating nuclear supercarrier looks into the face of oblivion as her thinned, exhausted, and beleaguered crew face the largest herd of dead ever recorded. Soon the ship's five-acre flight deck will become the scene of a furious and desperate set-piece battle - like no combat any modern army has seen since Stalingrad. The ranks of the dead are infinite, and those of the living are tiny, depleted, and running out of time...and of hope.

The government said the Variants were dying off.... That the beasts would be extinct in a matter of years.... That the Allied States had returned to prosperity and freedom.... The government was dead wrong. Deep under the cities, the Variants weren't just hiding, they were breeding. While the human survivors of the Extinction Cycle built outposts and brought back industries, the monsters were building something of their own.

An excellent continuation of a great series.
Where does The Flood rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I've listened to a ton of audio books, but as far as the 12 Arisen books I've listened to so far, I'd rate this one in the top three (behind Exodus and Genesis). It's definitely one of the better books in the series.
What did you like best about this story?
This story has finally merged the Standalone arc with the main one. It's been a long time coming, and I'm excited to see where it goes from here.
Have you listened to any of R.C. Bray’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
This one ranks towards the top. Just when I thought I had become familiar with the range of characters he can portray, he goes and throws a couple new ones, complete with their own inflection and accents, into the mix. He's an excellent reader.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
There were a few giggles here and there, but nothing extreme.
Any additional comments?
This book is nearly end-to-end action, which is in no small part to the previous book being a bit on the stagnant side. What I mean by that was that it served as one giant setup to this one. I'm a huge fan of this series, but it really feels like many of these books can be paired directly to another and combined into one cohesive narrative. This aspect of the series has always felt like a money grab to me. With that aside, I still maintain this is an excellent series, and well worth the read/listen if you're looking for a decent Zombie Apocalypse story with a focus on action. This is seriously good stuff.

one of the best in the series
I was getting kind if tired with how drawn out the series is. This book had some real substance. reiterating some of the same points is still an issue, but i feel like this book moved the plot along more than the previous several books.
I am eager to get to the end, and will keep buying these books like crack. as soon as each is available.

Excellent ZA writing
This series is one of the best ZA series in terms of character development, writing style, storyline, etc. the narration is also excellent. It is very difficult to find ZA books with this level of writing, so I highly recommend.

Fantastic
Fan-fucking-tastic
Love these books they hit my zombie spec ops craving right on the head.
But seriously well done great book just love the homework done in all the books when it comes to the military side, the small details count for me and I'm sure many others. Gotta make a Rv series outta these books. Anime would be a great way to show off the gore.
Again well done and can't wait for the rest 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I listen to each book in this series almost straight through. The story is engaging. I am the proud aunt of a real operator so I know the level of dedication operators truly have. I know my Ranger protects the USA with all he has. This is fiction at it's best. Thanks again RC Bray...you rock!

It's been too long already....
Unfortunately, the authors must be giving up their creative credibility to drag every last cent out of this series. Bring it to a close!!!! You will be showing respect to those that have already overspent on this series that if delivered in half the volumes would have been twice as good. The formulaic writing is tiresome and the realism is being stretched too far....just how many times are we going to be told it's certain death...to find it wasn't!!!

A Deluge of Action
I wonder if this series is now settling into a pattern; one medium action scene setter followed by an absolute fire cracker of a follow-up to deliver on the promises made. This one is most definitely of the fire cracker variety and the action is unrelenting delivering in the Arisen style that we’ve come to love. Hopeless situations rescued either by extreme badassery or incredible adventure – in fact I think it’s worth warning people that this one possibly pushes the envelope even further. Fair enough, if you want just gritty realism zombie books probably aren’t your thing, just be prepared to dial down your logic chips at times in this one.
The narration? It’s the grand master Bray on his home turf and he owns that turf. You know what you’re going to get from him, he delivers every time in this series and this is no exception. The story focuses on the action in the away teams primarily and doesn’t have the rather choppy feel of the previous book which seemed to be pulling a few too many strings together at once.
So, my love affair with rotting corpses and the heroes that are defending the last vestiges of humanity from them continues and I’ll wait impatiently for the next one. You feel the series probably has to end some time but while Fuchs can deliver such compelling action and a little humour here and there including aping Jurrasic Park slightly I have to say I’m in no hurry for it to finish.

Another Cracker
R.C does the usual and brings this book alive...the story is addictive, the characters believable and, overall, leaves you wanting more and more. Book 10 is slightly dragged out, and a bit repetitive in places but it's still a rollicking good journey...the only downer? No idea as to when Book 11 is out :-)

Another great book. But is the series dragging?
I love the book, the writing is still amazing and RC Brays performance is perfect yet again.
However, as much as I love the series I can't help but feel that we're no closer to wrapping up the story than we were 5 books ago. after 12 books (including prequels) you'd think we'd be getting closer to the end but the end feels no where in sight. I am truly invested in this series, one of my favourite book series I've ever followed, however I'm concerned about how much longer it will be until we start to see some closure. I don't know how long it will be until my enthusiasm wavers. hopefully not anytime soon.
regardless of this the book is again phenomenal

One of my all time favourite series
Would you consider the audio edition of The Flood to be better than the print version?
Absolutely, I love this Narrator, he brings each character to life, makes the books even more exciting.
What did you like best about this story?
The multiple story lines mean there are so many characters all connected and tied in, there isn't a dull moment in any of the books
Have you listened to any of R.C. Bray’s other performances? How does this one compare?
Always a brilliant listen- when I see R.C Bray narrating, I know it will be enjoy it.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No
