Decent and improved

Storyline gotten a lot better since the first book. Narrator also improved. Not bad overall. Was skeptic moving on from the first book. But turned out better than I thought. Story is great. More plausible action with real results. I like that the main crew can't always dodge every bullet. Keeps you on the edge.

Overall well done

Story great, narration not so much.

The story is among the best for this genre that I have read.

The narrator's voice, however, has a singsong tone affectation that is difficult to listen to. Over and over the same thing. High - low, high - low. The story is so good that sometimes I didn't notice. Other times it drove me nuts.

Lots of twists and turns

The author is a very talented writer and I was impressed with his use of analogies when describing situations. This book also had a lot of interesting challenges that faced Fletch and Neil as they traveled. It kept the story interesting and on the edge of your seat at times.

Noah Mann Doesn't Understand the Army

My main issue is Angela would not be an officer without going to college. She would just be an enlisted member. Bother's me that writers overlook details like this. Had she told her story that she did a couple years, then went ROTC and came back, sure she could be a great officer. Other than this minor detail the story is a great spin on the end of the world concept. I listen to these for entertainment as well as what really could happen? Like Covid19, this one hit us out of the blue, preppers like me are, we tried to tell you something could happen. Anyways, great story and good narrator, I will keep listening. Maybe if the Author reads this he could give a bit of a back story how someone with out college became an officer. Maybe she got a battle field promotion during the early days? Just something to think about from an old combat vet.

Awesome

Great story, absolutely loved it. This is a must read or listen for all preppers. Ready for the next book in this series.
