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....

Critic reviews
"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)
Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time
The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

Editor's Pick
Two Words: Moon. Zombies.
"That’s all it took to turn my attention to Dead Moon! I for one can’t imagine anything scarier than combining the isolation of the moon with going head to head with an enemy (or thousands) that don’t need air to survive—but trust me when I say that that’s just scratching the surface. With Peter Clines’s incredible world-building and Ray Porter’s spot-on narration, just add a dash of humor and know that you’ve got a recipe for an un-pause-able listen! Now, I must admit that, despite the rave reviews heard around the Audible offices for 14 and The Fold, I’ve never listened to the Threshold Series. So worry not, whether you’re a fan whose been eagerly awaiting this next installment or a newcomer, Dead Moon stands on its own as a sci-fi thriller that starts out somewhat eerie, and quickly amps up the tension." —Catherine H., Audible Editor

I felt that the characterization was too little and much too late. I didn't have any reason at all to care about any of the characters until about 2/3 of the way into the book. By then, I would have already returned it, if it wasn't a Threshold book, to be honest.
The first 2/3 of the book is a very linear, standard story without surprises of any kind. It just wasn't very interesting, especially without strong characterization to carry the story along. There weren't any of the cool mysteries like the green roaches or blacklight fixture of "14", to pique my interest and make me wonder what was around the corner.
Don't get me wrong - there are some really cool scenes, and the Big Bad when it finally appears, really delivers! I feel like this book would have worked WAY better as a novella that omitted most of the first part of the story. I just didn't feel the moon zombies really added anything. Which is too bad because I thought the concept of moon zombies was pretty exciting :P
Still looking forward to the next book... just hoping it will be a little more like 14 and The Fold as far as pacing/characterization!
Not my favourite

I was expecting much better from this book

And the start of this one is a bit slow. So I was tempted to just stop listening, but I decided to ignore that it's supposed to be a sequel and stuck with it because I do love listening to Ray Porter and the action picked up a bit. But then the idiots were super idiotic and zombies and ugh.
Overall, as a stand alone story it's OK. Ray Porter's narration elevates it a bit. But I'm sad that the Threshold series didn't get a better 3rd story.
Disappointing

Not as good as first two threshold books

The narration is superb. The story is Zombies on the Moon. That’s about it. I suppose this book might work for you if you’re into zombies. Because it’s zombies, but on the Moon. I don’t care about zombies, so I don’t know whether Clines brings anything new (other than the Moon!?) to the genre.
I really don’t know what The Threshold series is about, but I do know I’ll read the reviews of the next one before I buy!
Believe the reviews. Ugh.
