Would you listen to Journey again? Why?
I probably will.
What other book might you compare Journey to and why?
This book, in theme, is similar to other PA books. When dealing with the PA theme, there really isnt a good way to stand out… all the authors have to follow certain parameters. At the beginning, the author gives an introduction on the “why and purpose” of this book. I really enjoyed the fact that there is a female narrator and she is decent too!
What about Kevin Pierce and Becket Royce ’s performance did you like?
The performance was solid. I was just stoked to hear a female voice as a main narrator!
Any additional comments?
Despite the author’s introduction, this is another book that doesnt necessarily have any great differences from other PA novels…. other than the writing in general – the story is very well written. The book follows two story lines: 1. A group of college students in Maryland who, individually have no broad survival skills, but as a group have the general knowledge and common sense to survive. I did find it rather typical that at least one person in the group had a weapons or military background. The author doesnt use the military background as a center piece in the survival aspect, but towards the end of the book, that character became very prominent. 2. the second story follows the family/home town of one of the college students and how things collapse in a small community or suburb.There are some interesting perspectives from certain characters. I like good PA novels and series. I’m definitely looking forward to book 2. I sincerely hope the author is able to keep both narrators for each book. Some times the narrator sucks on the first try, but in this case, both were a GREAT fit.
