No Easy Hope

Surviving the Dead, Volume 1

De: James N. Cook

Narrado por: Guy Williams

Eric Riordan was once a wealthy man leading a comfortable, easy life. Until one day Gabriel, his oldest friend, Marine Corps veteran, and a former mercenary, told him how the world was going to end.

He did his best to prepare. He thought he was ready for anything.

He was wrong.

As the dead rise up to devour the living, one man finds himself struggling to survive in the ruins of a shattered world. Alone, isolated, and facing starvation, his only chance is to flee to the Appalachians and join forces with Gabriel. But the journey will not be easy, and along the way his humanity, his will to live, and his very soul will be tested.

This is the beginning. This is his story.

A narrator can make or break a book.

I am not done with this book, but i felt the need to put out some much needed information that i seemed to have missed in others reviews. The narrator is terrible. He cant do female voices well, at all. I dont expect perfection when a narrator is doing a womans voice, but this guy makes them sound like Jim Carrey doing Vera Di Milo on In Living Color. Actually, half the men get that same narration as well.
The story is decent, and i eventually can focus on that. But man, if the narrator was good i know id really enjoy this book.

Slow but riveting

This book started out slow for my taste. And the narrator was lacking.
After a slow start, things seem to pick up and there was no turning back from there.
Can't wait for my next credit to continue the saga.

great book

great story and the narrator really brings each character to their own unique life
Don't hesitate to buy it..

Meh

Well a little on the how to side and a little stilted in the writing. But got better as it went along. It was worth the sale price.

a little better than average

A better than average book, but that was about all I can say for it. I don't regret buying it at least
