Long on made-up scenarios to justify being prepared, short on plot and pacing. Starting with the power going out, the book never really gets very far. The author seems to prefer to illustrate how to think in such a disaster. That is useful information but so much focus on teaching a lesson (and trying to..

Horribly boring. My son would get bored listening to this book. Not recommended as it is 1 of less than a handful of books I did not finish.

Ms. Gideon has done an excellent job crafting a realistic, well thought out, and completely readable work of prepper/TEOTWAWKI fiction. You won’t learn the muzzle velocity of a 5.56 round from an AR-15 SBR, but you will learn some more useful stuff and be entertained along the way. On the audio side, Kevin Pierce’s performance..
