Publisher's summary

The critically acclaimed Surviving the Fall series, now in one complete edition!

Surviving the Fall is an epic survival/thriller post-apocalyptic series that asks the "what if" question that lurks in the back of everyone's mind.

When a devastating attack cripples and destroys every Internet-connected device in the country, Rick Waters is stranded a thousand miles from his wife, Dianne, and their children. To get back home, he'll have to draw on every survival instinct he has as he's pulled into a web of lies and conspiracy that threaten not just his survival but that of the entire world.

Surviving the Fall is a thrilling post-apocalyptic episodic series that focuses on Rick and Dianne Waters and how they each deal with the apocalypse. Stranded across the country away from his family, Rick must travel from California to Virginia to reunite with his wife and children, all while struggling to comprehend and deal with the horrors along the way.

At home with her three children when she experiences the beginning of the end in a dramatic and deadly fashion, Dianne Waters has experience as a prepper and survivalist, but not even years of training and preparation have readied her for the darkness that comes with the end of the world. Now she must draw upon those skills to protect her loved ones and fight back against those who come against her and her family.

This complete edition of Surviving the Fall features all 12 books in the series, each one full of action, suspense, and drama, as Rick and Dianne struggle to survive the end of days.

Profanity

Always thought the use of profanity was a sign of a limited vocabulary. Great story but could not continue listening to the profanity.

Much Better than I Expected.

Absolute great book. Very entertaining.
After seeing some of the negative reviews I almost chose not to buy this audiobook. Glad I didn’t. Not sure what the critics were smoking.
I was thoroughly entertained from start to finish. I listen to tons of books as I travel a lot for my job. This book is right there in the top 5 of all I’ve listened to.
The narrator Abernathy did a great job as well.
I liked the unique SHTF scenario, as opposed to the standard EMP that 99% of the SHTF’s are. I normally save my audiobooks for my long drives, but I couldn’t help it and had to listen more at home to find out what would happen next.
I really liked both Rick and Dianne’s characters. Great to see Mark’s character develop as well. I’ll be looking for more Mike Kraus titles going forward.

good series

i enjoyed tye series quite a bit.
some of the lines were a bit "really?" such as "gosh darn right" or when Jason gets grazed in the arm toward end of last book and screams.. but easy to push those aside with the good storyline, action and suspense. well done sir.. ill be looking into more of your books. :)

Very Well Done in all aspects!

This was well written and narrated. The story kept me eagerly awaiting the next chapter and book. fortunately I was able to purchase the entire series at the same time. I'm only sad that it's over. KUDOS.

amazing series a new spin on apocalypse

I enjoyed this new spin on the post apocalypse idea and enjoyed the mother's point of view

Very well written and performed!

The story had me on the edge of my seat most of the time. It is very well written and the voice actor did a phenomenal job keeping me engrossed in the story!

Great work

I am having a great time listening to your books. I wasn't sure at first when I purchased your books, if I would enjoy them or not. But I'm still listening and on the way to the end of your series. They just keep going and going, energizer bunny lol. Anyway, keep up the great writing. Will love to listen more. Thank you Jim V

Kinda just meh.

The writing - story, character interactions - comes across fairly juvenile. The narrator needs to work on different voices and how to use inflection. Not very enjoyable overall.

Update: I made it into book 6 and just couldn't keep going. I tried. I wanted to like it. My same two complaints from before wrecked it for me. The narrator has two voices - a normal one, and your typical angry military guy from an 80's movie. Nothing else. Didn't even have an English accent for the London scenes. While I applaud any author/creator for pouring their heart and soul into a project, that doesn't mean it'll be appealing to the masses. In this case, it just didn't appeal to me enough. Character interactions are weird most of the time. Though fiction, the storyline is barely believable. I may check back in a few years for future stories to see how the author has grown.

FABULOUS

Fast moving and believable. I truly enjoyed every moment!!! I willl reread this series.
Thanks for the great entertainment. Keep them coming.

Whew! I read the complete series!

And very glad I did. This is one of the better offerings in its genre. LOL...although I was both enjoying and hoping Rick would be able to move faster. He made much better time then I would have. I highly recommend this series. Now for the obligatory: "I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review."
