Neighborhood Watch

Neighborhood Watch: After the EMP, Book 1

By: E.E. Isherwood

Narrated by: Kyle Tait

One second was all it took to erase Frank's dreams.

New home. New car. New retirement.

Stolen by the EMP.

It gets worse. Frank's neighbors failed to prepare at all, so it falls on him to keep them alive.

He starts easy: stockpile food, water, and guns. Disaster lessons he'd picked up reading books about the end of the world.

But after the EMP, keeping people safe gets complicated. He has to rally the neighborhood before the streets turn to chaos.

And they will. He's read enough to know the power might come on tomorrow . . . or never.

On book 3…

Pretty good so far. On book 3 and enjoying a bit more than first two. Almost lost me at the “J Lo” look a like though. She’s (Carmen) is a bit annoying (actually VERY annoying) but still worth the listen if you can get past her character. Really enjoy the narration. Frank is a good leader so far. Love Penny and many others too.

Good story and good narrating

It’s a good book. Worth the listen. It would be great if the story were filled out more.

Nicely narrated

A little too much detail in some areas. Great descriptions but some information not needed.

Decent read

This first book was a little slow, but held my interest enough to purchase the second book in the series.

Yes!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and narrator. It was a smash up start to what I'm thinking will be a great series!

Possibly a female-friendly prepper series?

Good survivalist read, especially since it's not super heavy on the macho man hero mentality. The author writes a realistic story that's easy to want to stick with until the end. It treads on the edge of middle age man going after younger woman storyline, but I'm going to read the next book because that relationship didn't cross the creepy old man or women throwing themselves at the hero line. It comes pretty close, but since there wasn't graphic violence or other explicit type scenes I was able to overlook it because I did really like the rest of storyline. As a woman it's so hard to find SHTF books that don't center on those themes and instead actually have normal people-type characters that teach you useful things, so it's worth buying the next in the series and hoping it stays female-friendly.

Fun start, but too short—hooked me and dropped me.

I really got into the story and the characters, but suddenly it was over. It’s tough to drop a credits on a series where the books are only 8-10hrs.

I'm already on book 3!!!

I'm really enjoying this series. I bought book 1 less than two weeks ago, and now I'm already halfway through book 3.
"Neighborhood Watch" is not your typical bug-out story. I usually fall asleep while listening to my abooks, but not this one. I don't recall a moment where the storyline didn't keep me engaged throughout.
Frank, the lead character, is a really good guy with knowledge and skills invaluable to his community. He is the type of person who would be a great friend whether it's the apocalypse or not. I'll be listening to this series again. No doubt.

Good EMP series

I’m not sure why all the so-so reviews because this book and the rest of the series are make for a decent read. If you like to read this genre then give this series a chance.

great

Loved the book. Great read and lots of action. i will be listening to more books.
