The Survivors

Pandemic

De: Alex Burns

Narrado por: Zehra Jane Naqvi

"I didn't realize how much I would miss grocery shopping until it was gone."

Life was pretty good. The love of Alice's life had proposed, they were proud new homeowners, and she'd just landed a great promotion at work. Things were going to plan.

Well, they were, until the Red Death struck.

Billions dead in a matter of weeks. The survivors are few and far between. No one is safe. Life will never be the same again.

Just...ok

This was not what I was expecting at all from a post-apocalyptic book. It was so slow and not much actually happened. The ending was leading to a more interesting book two, but it'll probably be more of the same, so I'll skip it.

Okay to pass the time

This book wasn’t what I thought it would be. It’s very slow paced. The characters, story, and narrator were okay though. The ending alluded to a possible book 2 but unfortunately this book didn’t setup enough interest or action that makes me anticipate another book.

COVID before it was announced

I really enjoyed the story line. The difference in people who prep, who are preppers and those who are neither and the reaction and responses as a result. I am really impressed by the fact that this was released when COVID was 1st announced, therefore written way previously.

Slow and unfinished

The Story was a bit of a crawl and the ending left undone. I guess it was going to have a sequel but 6 years later there isn't one. Was a waste of time in my opinion.

It was a good setup…but…

I know everyone has to write series now instead of just one book. It’s annoying but that’s life. This book felt like maybe half of one book. So in other words, it was waaaay too long for what we got. Nothing much happens after the pandemic hits. They just sort of live and talk about future living. There was too much lamenting of their situation and many unnecessary things thrown in there, like a dog being lost in some bushes for a little while. I grew weary. I’m not at all curious as to what happens next.
