To much virtue signaling.

Basically the author didn't do anything special in the book and a vast majority of the book is spent on the author showing how virtuous his character is. I get the feeling that there is a lot of self projection between the author and main character. most of the virtue signaling feels out of place and disconnected from what the story is doing. It just seems forced. The biggest problem is the distain the author clearly shows at the end of the book for a particular religion.

it's has the makings to be a good book

it's has the makings to be a good book I like where the Arthur is going hoping he keeps it going

intro

as a truck driver that listens to this genre of audio-books loved and instantly connected to the lead character lol. can't wait for book 2!

Odd but good

amazing book. I definitely recommend this book.I enjoyed the story immensely. And loved the action.

Went from good to mediocre.

I enjoyed the story for the first 3/4, but unfortunately the need for the author to virtue signal just breaks me out of my immersion. It's almost like the author felt he needed to flesh out the book, and threw in some unnecessary and unlikely drama based on current day SJW hot topics that would immediately become irrelevant in a true apocalypse situation.

There's nothing wrong with the narration, but there's nothing good either. It's just mediocre.
