About this listen
A dense black cloud boiled up in the southeastern sky. It rose high and fast, like a time-lapse movie of the birth of a thunderhead. But it was no rain cloud. Wholly black, it reached up and up until it loomed over her, blocking out the sun. Somehow, she knew, it was Death coming for her.
Pre-med student Coral is on vacation in Idaho when something terrible happens. The black cloud is followed by a wildfire and searing heat that lasts for days. She survives deep in a cave but emerges days later to find the world transformed, with blackened trees, an ash-filled sky, and no living creatures stirring - except for her.
So begins her desperate journey to find water and food and other survivors...and the answer to the mystery of what happened.
Note: This is a combined edition of Gray I, Gray II, and Gray III.

Cassie Forrest isn't surprised to learn that the day she’s decided to get her life together is also the day the world ends. After all, she’s been on a self-imposed losing streak since her survivalist parents died: she’s stopped painting, broken off her engagement to Adrian and dated a real jerk. Rectifying her mistakes has to wait, however, because Cassie and her friends have just enough time to escape Brooklyn for her parents’ cabin before Bornavirus LX turns them into zombies, too.

So while his new home isn’t perfect, it’s livable. The rent is low, the property managers are friendly, and the odd little mysteries don’t nag at him too much. At least, not until he meets Mandy, his neighbor across the hall, and notices something unusual about her apartment. And Xela’s apartment. And Tim’s. And Veek’s.

From the Audie-nominated narrator of The Martian. In eleven years' time, a million members of an alien race will arrive at Earth. Years before they enter orbit, their approach will be announced by the flare of a thousand flames in the sky, their ships' huge engines burning hard to slow them from the vast speeds needed to cross interstellar space. These foreboding lights will shine in our night sky like new stars, getting ever brighter until they outshine even the sun, casting ominous shadows and banishing the night until they suddenly blink out.

Do It!
Grey is a great book. I downloaded it because of its length to take on a paddling trip.
I could not stop listening. even lostened on the way to work and coming home! Excellent story about our differences as humans and what we are and are not capable of . I highly recommend it.
Also finished it 2 days before the trip even started!

I enjoyed this different take on a disaster happening and wish there were more books to read in the series. I will always wonder how their lives turned out. really makes you think about what would survive and who.

Well .. it’s good.
Gray was a good listen/read. It was interesting and storyline was easy to follow. But (there’s always a ‘but’) .. I could have used a heavier context and story. This is what my mom used to call ‘pulp’. It’s a read/listen and nothing wrong with it. The narrator was good and the audio had no bumps, tweaks and whistles that I could hear. All good and you can’t go wrong (IMHO).

Fabulous narration and a great story line with just about every type of scenario you would expect to find at the end of the world but with a twist. I enjoyed the characters and the challenges presented to them were well thought out.

Excellent story and narration~no spoilers
I'm not a zombie/prepper fan, and wonderfully--Gray was neither thing!
I literally just did the 3 books from awake to asleep in 2 nights. Riveted by this series. Here's why I love it, and why you should, too.
1- this is what happens after the world ends. (No spoilers) Lou Cadle wrote a brilliant story with a heroine who's not totally a superhero, and Lauren Fortgang did a FIRST RATE job bringing this entertaining and really well written series to it's conclusion. I'm not spoiling any of it except to say this--all these things are possible. I'm old, old enough to remember old radios, CB and Shortwave, and pretty much she wrote things correctly. The medical parts were reasonably correct, how to milk goats was reasonably correct, Lou did some homework before setting words to page.
No idea if the science is all right but I suspect it's right as well.
The way she told the story was bold and interesting. I am partially sighted so being able to read a story well, brings it to life "in our heads, " When. you have a good narrator, it really makes or breaks a story. Generally I listen to male narrators, being a sci-fi nerd, with the exception of some of Kate Reading's stuff (she does Brandon Sanderson's Stormlight Archive). I'll absolutely listen to this narrator again, she did a great job. She made all the people's voices different, and did the best she could with male voices, there are just some things we women can't do, lower register voices are difficult for women, same as high voices are hard for most men. She kept us, the listener engaged with the story.
ONE thing though--Lou--the word is "Ineptitude", not "Ineptness". When Coral in the book thought Ineptness, I swore because the incorrect word threw me. Otherwise, I loved it.

The Stand, Swan Song....GRAY !!!
Although not quite as "epic" as Swan Song or The Stand, this book will more than likely make you late for an appointment or two if you struggle to control your ability to use the pause button during "a good part". Absolutely worth it if you enjoy the apocalyptic/survival sub-genre.

Well done 'end of the world as we know it' story.
I enjoyed this book enough to leave a review which I rarely do. I'm fascinated with how other people envision what people would do or how they would survive if our modern world suddenly ceased to exist. Unfortunately most stories in this genre concentrate on the defence of scarce supplies, and certainly there was some of that happening in this story. But this book looked at survival from more of an individual point of view with Coral and Benjamin experiencing slow starvation on their own, then dealing with the strange mindset of a doomsday cult and the 'deer in the headlights' ignorance of city survivors who don't question too much where their food comes from.
The narration too, was excellent.
I must say that although I'm confident Coral and Benjamin will manage to survive into old age, I fear that in this scenario, mankind as a species probably will not be sustained with too few individuals over too wide an area.
Read it yourself and come to your own conclusions!
