About this listen

The world did not end in a single night, it rotted from within. The infection spread like wildfire, consuming cities, collapsing governments, and bringing entire nations to their knees. The powerful fled. The desperate fought. The doomed prayed. But the undead were relentless, devouring everything in their path. From the fall of New York City to the last stand in London, from the Pope’s final sermon in the Vatican to billionaires seeking refuge in Switzerland’s most fortified bunkers, this is the story of how civilization crumbled, one country at a time. A brutal, unflinching account of global collapse, Rotting Earth takes you deep into the chaos, where soldiers fought hopeless battles, world leaders made impossible choices, and ordinary people faced horrors beyond imagination. The dead did not rest, and there was no one left to stop them.

A great take on earth’s apocalyptic downfall on many different perspectives. I binged this in two days and loved it from start to finish.

really loved how it gave different perspectives on the outbreak. it wasn’t just one person’s story, but a mix of voices that showed how everyone was affected in different ways. It made the world feel so much more real and intense.

So cool!!

This is an amazing book with a unique take on a world collapse caused by zombies. The voice actor did justice to the narration as well. The plot is well-structured and based on facts that could plausibly happen in real life, making it scarily impressive how the author crafted the details in each chapter. Truly an amazing book. I want more like this. I can’t wait for Book 2

I have seen so many zombie movies and read so many books but this is unlike anything I’ve ever watched or read. Absolutely phenomenal is the only words I can use to describe this book..also 10/10 narrator who’s voice doesn’t pierce my eardrums or make me want to stop listening within five minutes. Brilliant doesn’t cover this book.

Everything. Absolutely phenomenal.

This zombie book was a wild ride! I really liked how it didn’t just focus on the action, but also explained how the infection spread from one country to another. You could really see how travel, panic, and poor decisions made everything worse. It felt super realistic, like something that could actually happen. Each place had its own story, and it all came together in a way that made it hard to put down.

If you're a zompoc fan, this book is a must. Starting with patient zero, then progressing through the fall of nations, to the very last stronghold falling to the undead hordes. John's book just makes you want to see what happens next.
Full of gore, action, terror and bravery, the narrator brings the characters, suspense, and terror to life; as if you were there watching the scene unfold before your very eyes. I really enjoyed this audiobook, and hope that a sequel will follow, or even a series.

From Patient Zero to the Fall of Nations.
