This book was EXTREMELY disappointing for someone looking for a meaty story and I really wanted to like the book as the main character was from Smyrna, TN – about 30 minutes from my home. The highlight of this book was the Narrator Kevin Pierce- if it wasn’t for his story telling, I would have stopped half-way through and given the book 1 star.
The entire first book seemed rushed with no character development. In addition, the timeline seemed off as well- the main character (spoiler alert) hooks up with Madison and she is quickly kidnapped- he looks for her for about 10 minutes then meets Kobe and totally forgets about Madison? Then falls in love with Kobe in the next 15 minutes? If you haven’t read many post-apocalyptic books (aka prepper-porn) you may like this, but there are MUCH better stories out there.
