This listen kept my interest throughout. I would describe it as apocalypse lite. There was some violence but the situations were over with quickly and without much tension. I didn’t find the plot wholly believable. The fact that Anthony would be so stubborn about leaving when Katherine’s family were preppers was not logical. And that Katherine’s mom was a hard core prepper but really hadn’t done anything before Katherine and Anthony arrived was not logical. And even weirder, Katherine’s mom was a prepper but unfamiliar with guns? And was so stubborn about relocating to a place that was perfect and entirely defensible? Too many plot holes for me.
In spite of that, the characters were well developed and I cared about them, especially Ralph, who I loved from the instant he was introduced.
The narration made the listen for me. I love both Kevin Pierce and Becket Royce. I didn’t realize at first that Becket also narrated so I was delighted when she opened the story. I loved the two perspectives and that the author chose to use different narrators to accomplish the feel for the audio version.
I received this audiobook for free through Audiobook Boom! in exchange for an honest review.
