Strangers unite. Sides are chosen. Can humanity survive what it never saw coming?

Buy this audiobook, then get Season 2

I'm not a huge science fiction fan, but I really enjoy end of the world reads. This book, however, was awesome! The only thing better is Season 2. The authors have five seasons out now, and the sixth will be the finale. Here's hoping that Podium gets all of them produced and here on Audible!

Great Series

I noticed Audible only has Seasons 1-3. Please make Season 4 and Season 5 available on Audible!!!

Wow! What a ride!

I just had to add credits because the last episode left me hanging at the wrong time. It may be morbid but by the end of the season I was all Boricio or however it's spelled. I must admit that the stories kinda ran together for me near the end but this series is great!

A real struggle to suspend disbelief for the post apocalyptic genre

It took me a full 6 hours to somewhat like this story. I think the array of narrators is part of the problem. Lucah? Horrible. The intonation of the narrator coupled with the intentional child-like thought process of the character just don't work for me. Ugh! The serial killer was a bit much a first but then he started to grow on me.

The flip flopping between characters was distracting at times but it made the time spent with annoying characters a bit more bearable.

The theme: without going into too much detail I thought the concept of the end of the world as we know it is a tried and true topic but I think the author gets a bit too amb

Awesome narritive

Read this a few months ago, my first audio book. The writing style is so close to Stephen King it is amazing. Similar POV style (Like The stand by King) I'm absolutely in love with the way it was put together. so I bought 3 of the seasons available and waiting on 4-6 to hit stores. Awesome character bulding, character you will love, and characters you love to hate. Wow is all I can say.

Yesterday is not gone! It’s here to stay

This is the second time I have listened to this series. The first time I just listened,this time I am watching. It’s so much more ! The first time was fun this time it’s scary! Give it a spin once put it away for a while than, listen once more and not see something you missed the first time around. Ok,ok, I liked it! You will too!

Too Many Questions, Not Enough Answers

While the performances were fantastic, the story left me with a lot of unanswered questions and I don't think I'm willing to sit through another fifteen hours to maybe get the answers. I'm sure the opinions vary on the story, and don't get me wrong, I finished the book and for the most part, I enjoyed it. I just thought it left a lot of loose ends. Too many things left unfinished in what feels like a deliberate attempt to get you to keep going in the series, which is fine - television does this sort of thing all of the time - but what always seems to happen is another season of more questions than answers.

Love the Story, Language seemed excessive

I read the disclaimer before purchasing this book and knew there would be strong language but it still caught me off guard. I listen to books while at work and the language at times made me feel uncomfortable to listen to at work. I expected cussing but there was way more than needed and the language was pornographic at points. I disagree with the disclaimer statement that it adds to the story. I thought at times it took away from the story.

Language aside it is an interesting plot with interesting characters and I will be listening to the next one (with headphones on so no one can hear the language : > )

awesome story so far

it was hard to find spot you were at if dozed off. just because story goes back and forth with dialogue.

Morgan Freeman is great as always......

Love it !!! Great story line, good vs bad
Can't wait to listen to #2......
