I really enjoyed both book series. I like the reader a lot he matched things well and could do a lot of voices. The only hold up I had was the language used. The author talks like a military person. These are supposed to be regular people but he kept using words like bug out bag. I don’t know any 40 year old reporter high maintenance women that say bug out bag. His vernacular is very large and he likes to use big words for even simple descriptions and conversations. They all fit and were properly used except for the idea that kids and lower income individuals or back woods folks in the authors words “Crackers”. Don’t use the same lingo as he often had them using. Again I really enjoyed both of the series but by the 6th book this was really annoying me. Also the other note is that this author tends to go to the negative with human nature really fast. I don’t think society would fall apart in two days. He really sped up that time line and had horror happening almost within in the first day. Maybe that would happen to some extent but not full scale everywhere.
