So this turned out to be an absolutely awesome read. However you have to get through the first 6 hours which is pretty much the whole first book before it starts getting good. If you just skip the first book or at least first 6 hours you have an awesome series. Just know in the first 6 hours every body gets saved, and goes to church for multiple sermons and talks to a priest for a few more sermons and then they buy a bunch of stuff in preparation for an EMP cause the main character has dream/Vision about it. Bam now your all caught up. The EMP strikes at about the 6th hour so start there and save yourself a boring and painfully slow start. It really is an awesome series if you skip that first part. The narrator is awesome !
