Great Read

I thoroughly Enjoyed the information presented in this book. Very very Easy to listen to.

If you're looking for a story, this isn't it

This is a good book for refrencing what to do in a CBRN event. This is a manual, not a story. So don't expect anything but textbook content. The content is good though and I do recommend it if you can listen to textbook audio.

Not Very Practical

Overly technical and little that is practical to the average person. Author bounces between needless side stories about the Iraq war and hyper technical information that would only be useful to a doctor with access to a fully stocked hospital.

Very little in those book would be useful to a person trying to be prepared. There are better books about this topic.
