Coastal Event Memories Volume I

By: A.G. Kimbrough

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

This is the first of five Novellas in a near term Science Fiction Post-Apocalyptic series. Each book in the series tells the stories of a group of survivors that live through a Global Extermination Event. The characters in this book are clustered around the shores of a great Inland Sea above what used to be called the San Joaquin Valley in California. These stories were triggered by current events shortly after I published my first book, BB-39. I had planned to complete another long-delayed novel, but these stories could not be set aside. Finally, I gave up and started writing these stories about people living in a world with vast areas covered by many feet of volcanic ash, and where the sea levels have risen by over 300 feet.

Again?

Although the basic story is good, the narration is very distracting. At the end of a paragraph (I think) the narration repeats the last sentence. AND at the beginning of every line (again I think since I don’t have the written book) The vowel e is said prior to the beginning of the next word. My opinion of this kind of narration is falling book by book. This book is by far the worst narration yet.
As far as the actual story goes, it just doesn’t go into the characters. It’s more like an outline in a history book. I know the author can do better than this. I will listen to the next book because I’m no quitter and in the hope that it will be better than the one.
