About this listen

Audible number-one best seller Peter Clines returns with a thrilling tale of the creature above - and the deadly threat below.

In the year 2243, the Moon belongs to the dead.

The largest graveyard in the solar system, it was the perfect solution to the overcrowding and environmental problems that had plagued mankind for centuries. And the perfect place for Cali Washington to run away from her past.

But when a mysterious meteor crashes into one of the Moon’s cemeteries, Cali and her fellow Caretakers find themselves surrounded by a terrifying enemy force that outnumbers them more than a thousand to one. An enemy not hindered by the lack of air or warmth or sustenance.

An enemy that is already dead.

Now Cali and her compatriots must fight to survive. Because if they don’t, everyone on the Moon may be joining the dead.

And maybe everyone on Earth, too....

What the critics say

"Narrator Ray Porter actually catches a break with this gruesome science-fiction audiobook. Much of this thriller's cast is composed of thousands of silent zombies, so Porter doesn't have to differentiate much among them.... But he still shines while bringing to life multinational characters, ably employing distinctive accents and timbres. He really ramps up the tension as a dwindling handful of survivors struggles to save humankind from a chilling threat." (AudioFile Magazine)

Characters to enjoy

Simply, excellent. Previous 5 star reviewers have said it all. New writers since 2015 should take pointers from this author, the story is tight and enjoyable.

Great!

I really enjoyed this. It is not your typical zombie book and I am okay with that. There were also a number of times where it made me laugh out loud (think moon gravity and jumping). Well done!! If you are wanting traditional zombie- pass on this. If you are wanting a sometimes tense, sometimes funny, and sometimes sad book this is solid!

Huh

I have binged this series and this last book is weak. The biggest saving grace was the performance of Ray Porter. The story felt rushed and the characters were one dimensional. With a jump into the future this book misses the mark with the previous ones in more ways than one.

If "zombies on the moon" sounds good, this'll do

Solid entry in the series, an entertaining yarn oh, and a bit "it is what it is". I loved 14 and thought the fold had a great build-up to a disappointing ending. This one is far more even and consistent. The highs are not as high but it never dips either. the mystery elements are far reduced from the prior two, instead it's a more straightforward zombies on the moon. And if that phrase brings a smile to your face then I strongly suggest you give this a listen

Good story, bad dialog

Original story, but the dialog is very repetitive, more so in this book than in this author’s other books since there aren’t as many things to discuss anyway, so the dialog feels very much like filler.

Another great book

I was a little disappointed at first not to continue from fold and hopes he goes back to do something with those characters but it was an amazing book and it was interesting to see one of old gods in action

cloverfield paradox

the threshold series is like Cloverfield. First two movies were pretty different but good, then a 3rd comes in and the 10 seconds at the end attaches it to the series.. oh is a pretty bland movie.
plot was pretty light and based on a weird premise.

Swearing

Lots and lots. Fits the situation, but more than I like. Series is a little disjointed between books. I will read the next one. Reader is superb.

A fun listen

I bought this with having read people being upset about it not being a sequel book but being set in the same universe as previous works of Mr. Clines. With that in mind I decided to consider this book an independent work and not try and make it work with other novels story lines.

This book was in fact a great listen. Like many sci-fi books I put my reality hat on the coat rack and sat down and just listened. It has a very good robust cast with interesting back stories that aren't muddying up the main plot. While you could unjustly slim this down as "just zombies on the moon" but its quite unfair. The book does not really have to much added meaning to the "zombies" as any other work does (walking dead for example). It actually uses the creatures more as a prop for other narratives and character building elements that I really enjoyed.

Ray Porter as usual delivered a great performance making the characters even more believable!
