- Good start to a series. Overall a very entertaining, engaging and enjoyable story. This isn’t a nice neighbor helping neighbor type of apocalypse, this is the watch your back, people are ruthless everyman for himself scenario.
It did take me a bit to be pulled into the story. It felt a bit disjointed at times with the back and forth between the past and present.
While I like the idea of having a playlist for the apocalypse, the title of the song was enough, the “key words” just took away from the song title for the chapter.
There are couple of twists in the story that are unusual, interesting and a little different. It gives the story a bit of extra mystery. Tom wasn’t just “stumbled upon” they were looking for him. I had a feeling about the boy and who he would be. Now that the story and characters connection has been established a bit it will be interesting to see where the story goes from here.
Kevin Pierce once again does a great job with the narration. He has one of those voices that just makes a story and characters come to life through his narration. Great character voices and accents. Clearly spoken with a nice smooth pace. Easy to listen to his voice for long periods of time. It’s always enjoyable listening to a book he narrates.
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and voluntarily provided this review.
