De: Karl A.D. Brown

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Alfred and Samantha Aimes and their plucky family prepare and survive in a post-economic collapse world. As the world careens towards nuclear and economic disaster, Alfred, acting on his instincts, awakens and becomes a prepper. After four US cities are destroyed with nuclear weapons, the US economy crumbles and the family struggles to survive in a world where food shortages, looting, rioting, and a deadly breakdown of the social order has become the norm. In a time when there is no government, infrastructure, or friends to count on, the Aimes family realizes that all they have is each other. "The Prepper Part One: The Collapse" is a stand alone novel. Here's an excerpt. Enjoy! Prologue: Alfred Aimes stepped out into a clearing on his heavily wooded land with his hands up. There was a short rotund woman, with scraggly black hair, in the clearing. She was maybe about 30, but she was so covered in filth that it was hard for him to be sure. Her face was horribly disfigured. One eye was fused shut and it seemed as if half her face had melted into itself. He had heard of the Syracuse Nuke Survivors but he had never met one to date. He figured that this woman may have drifted down from that irradiated city, or the surrounding area. Many people had survived the initial nuclear terrorist attack on Syracuse but they were basically walking corpses. This one was on his land and he wanted to know why. The fact that she was fat in these lean times further alarmed him, but he kept his face neutral. He put on a disarming grin and began his act....

Great Story!

I liked the story line of a small family surviving together the onset of the collapse.

Where’s the Hope?

There doesn’t seem to present a point of hope in this “apocalyptic” story.
As a Christian who practices preparing for hardships, the hope of any disaster lies fully with Christ. Please pray to believe that He died on the cross, was resurrected on the 3rd day and ask Him to be your Savior. What’s the point of just surviving apocalypse? Be Saved right now! Don’t wait! I’ll be praying for everyone who reads this comment will be Saved.

Pretty good but

The environmental stuff was pretty stupid and alarmist and harmed an otherwise solid tale. The vv wasn’t too bad

Good story

It’s a good story but I will say that the story just continues to pound in the corrupt politicians and corporations ruined the society with their hubris til your eyes start to roll the first couple chapters just hammer this and then it seem every couple chapters a character has to reflect for a moment on the way that once again corrupt politicians and corporations only looking out for themselves ruined the country. I just started skipping ahead a little til the diatribe was over and continue with the story. I will definitely be continuing with this series.

very thought provoking

I normally can't sit and listen to a audiobook but this one kept my attention

I do not support virtual voice

The mis pronunciation aside,the move to virtual voice marks a line that we should try harder to avoid.

Can’t substitute hummus

The story was not bad. I’d probably listen to the series except for the “virtual reading” to monotone and the way it is spoken is not how people speak. When talking about a firearm it’s not “he took his point four five” it should sound like he took his colt forty five” little things like that. There’s a bunch of people who could have killed the performance.but not a computer
