The rising of the “hero” from zero in this series is really good. I appreciate the association with reality as the vast majority of people today are not preppers nor have combat experience like in the series with Marcus Battle. The adaptation of the characters in this story and the increased ability to protect themselves with limited resources is impressive. I feel it could definitely happen given the circumstances and proper mindset. The references to the other series in this one is really cool. I appreciate it. I also appreciate the mention of the narrator and the humor associated with it. Great stuff.
