I am still right there with this story

this is not the best written story out there, this author presents this story like it is a first draft, and it is still great. If you are into the prepper world and feel that the current government is to intrusive, you will love this book, it is overall a great story from the first book and continues into this second story as well. The author is way into the tech of prepping, as are a lot of preppers, so for that audience it is great. If you are not a prepper then this book will outline at least one scenario for your fate, and it is that of the silly little totalitarian who thinks that "resource sharing" is now the current plan since you were to busy laughing at those who were diligent and put resources into the rainy day fund. This is a fun book and it brings to focus all the big gov plans for those who are content with watching T.V. and hitting the pipe, hey, if you like your current lifestyle you can keep your current lifestyle - what ever!
Highly recommended

I don't want to give too much away

So he's gotten home, and now things are getting a bit hairy, now what?

A. American does a great job getting you into the story, and keeping you there. It's not like your an outsider, listening to a story, you're there and watching it; you're going to start to try and "think in front of the story", asking yourself "what about this?", "how would I react?", "People are really going to act this way".

Looking forward to book 4.

Riviting read!!

This is the 2nd in this serues and is just as great as the 1st.

Still getting better ad better

I absolutely loved it and I was amazed it points of the shooter savagery that can totally understand this narrator is Bomb Diggity he's awesome

The saga continues

This story really hits close to home. I happen to live less than an hour from the setting of the main character's home. This really helped connect me to the story. I have even been inspired to start prepping. Nowhere near the level of the book, but I won't be 100% off guard should anything along the lines of the novel occur. My further reviews will be very similar as I sped though the series and didn't stop with each to leave individualized reviews. They were just too good to wait.

This is the continues the adventures, hardships and triumphs of the survivors of the fall. It keeps you engaged and keeps introducing new and interesting characters to add to the overall flavor of the story.

Enjoyable

After finishing the first one I bought the second one without thinking. Did this one take a dark turn but was so enjoyable to hear what happened to these characters after they arrived home. Read very well and great pace. I recommend this if you have already heard the first one.

Solid story, great narration, interesting chara

Worth the credits so far and I am going for #3. Can listen to Duke for hours. Would like to put a face with the voice. Makes me wonder if I would be tough to survive the same. 'Nuff said!

Great Charactor building

Would you listen to Surviving Home again? Why?

I would listen again. Author has the ability to tell a great story and build characters at the same time.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Morgan & Sarg.

What about Duke Fontaine’s performance did you like?

Duke Fontaine can put a twist on each character, very good performance.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Can you Survive?

Any additional comments?

I'm on book six now and love the series......my wife has actually started listening and is hooked on the characters.

series is good, but,

this series is good . but, some of the military terms are not correct. second, the descriptive moments in the book are too detailed to the point of boredom. oh by the way. carbine is pronounced carbeen not carbyne. alot of little things the are a little annoying. but, i like like the story and the actor. good book. just needs fine tuning.

love all of the books up to this point!

Can't stop reading!! Love all of the books up to this point. Can't wait for the next book!!
