Publisher's summary

The first tremors of the earth were felt at 7:22 EST. time. Every single person felt the rumbling and experienced the tremors that would forever alter the course of history. Most did not survive. These are the accounts of some of those who did.

Following three sets of people, The Upheaval is filled with heartbreak and hope. The day starts out like any other but soon goes to calamity. From earthquake to fire to tsunami, they must face disaster from every angle - the world they once knew has shattered in a just a few hours.

Don’t understand the bad ratings for this book

It is very good. This book in this series begins with what’s going on and develops the characters. Read a lot of SHTF books, and this one is rated at the top. Will be purchasing the next. And the narrator is actually good. Again, I don’t understand the bad ratings.

Need a different narrator

I made it through the book and it wasn’t bad. The part that made it almost unbearable was the narrator’s voice. Way too deep and then trying to do a Mass accent on top of that. I almost turned it off in the first 5 min.

Great apocalypse thriller

Fast paced and exciting with realistic characters in extraordinary circumstances, I will be getting the next book. The narrator does a great job & I loved his deep voice especially how he voiced the male characters. Though only complaint is he made Al & Carl sound a bit too much alike.

Just a tease for free

The story is slow and it doesn’t get anywhere by the end. I downloaded it as part of the free stories and wish the fact it was part of a series I would have liked to know that first. The story is not going anywhere after nine hours and I doubt it will in six hundred.

very sad and depressing well written

I like this book even though it is incredibly sad and at times hard to listen to now maybe it's The Times right now with cover 19 that's making it more real even though it's not the same type of disaster

can't decide if it's the story or the reading

The story is written with a fair amount left for speculation. Several "how" and "why" are hopefully answered later. I had a hard time staying engaged with exactly who some of the characters were, by name.
I prefer narration by artists that try to use different voices and manner of speaking. This narrator is basically just reading the book.
