Publisher's summary

The world has fallen to ash.

Governments have collapsed, police and armies no longer exist and the people of the world have been left behind to fend for themselves in the midst of escalating violence and nuclear fallout.

One community of survivors find each other, come together, and try to rebuild, to start over. Confronting the threats from without and within, they do everything necessary to find the only thing left, the most scarce resource of all.

Hope.

A different take on end of the World scenario.

This is a well crafted story that is character driven,it does not take the easy road like most end of this world Novels.

The writer has created real people with issues the Listener can identify with and care about.

The Narrator makes the story come alive with a good performance.



This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

There is a lot to like here, however.....

The story is a standard fare for the post apocalyptic genre with the added flare of a struggling family dynamic. This was a rather interesting surprise and I found myself quickly on-board for the ride.

The main character is interesting and relatable. Some of the choices and dialog leave you slapping your head and grumbling but something interesting always happens along quickly to keep you moving.

The narrator was pleasant to listen too and did a good job with the task of character separation.

I found this to be an enjoyable listen with some lingering tidbits as a memorable take away.

Great

I really enjoyed listening to this story it was exciting from beginning to end and the narrator did a great job thank you for putting this on audio Boom and have a code so I. could get the chance

Abrupt beginning

The beginning left me feeling like I'd accidentally started reading at chapter 3, some of it was filled in with flashbacks and Sophie remembering what happened. I felt like there was still a lot missing, I have no idea how extensive the initial attack was for example, I'm left feeling uninformed.

The characters are well done and I enjoyed getting to see a look at what needs to happen after the initial disaster to create safety and make a livable situation, this isn't normally covered so completely.

This feels more like a standalone book that the first in a trilogy, while I enjoyed it I don't feel the need to get the next book.

The character voices work well for both genders and the pace and tone of the delivery are effective.

After the fall book

Great potential to the book and to the series, think the narration needs some help. Story is a bit short to use a credit on, but if it hits a sale it would be worth getting.

Apocalypse Thriller

The world is unrecognizable; civilization as we know it is over. But there are no zombies, no skin melting diseases, no otherworldly threats, just your good old fashioned terrible people to contend with! A few groups of people band together over the idea that there is 'safety in numbers' and find themselves working on setting up a new society for themselves. This story follows this group as they form a hierarchy and attempt to rebuild. This is story about people - how they handle death and loss, how they handle violence and new rules. I prefer my apocalypse stories to have villains that are more compelling than just 'bad guys with guns' as we have those people in our civilization already. That's a personal preference though, if you don't require spookiness in your apocalypse story then you very well may enjoy this one! Rebecca Ortese does a good job with narration.

GREAT POST-APOCALYPTIC TALE, LOVED IT!

I really enjoyed this post-apocalyptic tale, loved the characters, story and narration. I've been really into post-apocalyptic stuff lately, and this was a nice addition :) Crazy intense thriller without too much gore (I don't mind gore at all, mind you), and really enjoyed it. Definitely an interesting and unique approach, if you like TWD you'll love this :) I'd definitely recommend giving it a listen, all in all great great book! :)

How to survive the apocalypse

This audiobook follows the journey of Sophie, a survivor of a massive nuke attack with her family and other companions. Its not the type tale of woe, it is a journey of survival. Its clear fro the start that the people they encounter are both good and bad, honest and dishonest. They quickly realize they have to band together to survive, but the challenge is who to trust and who not to trust. In a nutshell they book is a story of adaptation and trust in a changing environment.

This is a different type of story with deeper characters and events. It’s a good tale of human behavior under a tremendous amount of stress

I was given this book to review and the opinions are my honest thoughts after listening to the book

Behind our walls

This was a bi of a different apocolyptic book.It was the story of what was left of a family and the blame they put on one daughter.She knows she's a scapegoat ,yet keeps trying to lead them to safety.Rebecca Prtese was a fine narrator.I was given this book by the narrator,author or publisher free for an honest review.

This was a decent take on the post war apocalypse genre. It doesn't go into too much detail on what happened before you join the main characters, but you get enough to get into the story. The story itself, has a strong resemblence to the recent Walking Dead story but without the zombies. That isn't a complaint, just an observation. In the story, you encounter the best and worst of humanity that has survived. All in all, this was a well narrated and interesting story. Worth checking out if you like this genre.
