I don’t know who this book is for… It felt like an abridged version of a bigger adult series rewritten for teens.

Andrew Tell’s narration was fantastic. However, the plot was frustratingly predictable, and the characters’ inability to communicate clearly felt unrealistic and exasperating. It was one of those stories where everything that could go wrong did, and then somehow got even worse.

Big bad army ranger’s kids got him cucked. And after the dogs getting them in trouble so often WHY ARE THEY NOT ON A LEASH?!

Guy, his son, his son’s girlfriend, and their dog, cross the country from Colorado to Maryland after nuclear armageddon. They run into maybe 50 bad guys, who they kill, and 50 good guys they don’t kill. Everyone else is apparently dead or dying. They somehow run into the girlfriend’s mom in a FEMA/Not FEMA camp..

First off: if you can tolerate or mull over constant mispronunciations for a good 24hrs of story-telling then you are well on your way to enjoying this story. Andrew Tell does the narration for this book, but did no one TELL Andrew how to pronounce anything slightly Japanese in origin or asiatic for that matter…

Slow narration, read like a middle school novel . Not entertaining or interesting. Needed a stronger delivery.
