couldn't stand the narration

dude reads through his nose causing every character to sound like a wussy beta male.

AMAZING

Amazing I couldn't get enough. I look forward to another great series. Good Job

a bit implausible at times

struggled with a few portions of this book. first thing that caught my attention was the implausibility of enlisted soldiers with more education than most officers. nobody can seem to hit the broadside of a barn when shooting. armored motorcycles seriously? if you cut up the sheet metal from vehicles to armor a motorcycle that will not stop a bullet. if you put armor heavy enough to stop higher caliber rifle ammunition, it would be pretty burdensome to try to ride the bikes, and where would they get such plating? next is just because the bikes are armored doesn't make them a whole lot less susceptible the gunfire. you can still shoot Ryder from the side or shoot the tires, still quite vulnerable.

Detail account of fictional apocalypse in America resulting from a zero hour bio attack

Great character development and intense action throughout this book set. A great story to dive into.

That was a long ride

I really enjoyed the character development and endured the "lifetime movie of the week" angst that all authors seem to drag the characters through.
The whole lets talk about our feelings while we are feeling our feelings was really out of place while the good guys were being actively hunted was a big stretch.
Great series. Thank you.

Good Book , But...

I read these post apocalyptic thrillers because I like to see what these authors think the USA will look like if God Forbid, something like this really happens. They all write the same things, that the USA is attacked by a Bioweapon, Nuclear Weapon or an Big Rock from outer space.

They have our country attacked and the local people are all that’s left to defend the country. If you are a Veteran or even familiar with the military, you know that at any given time, there are hundreds of thousands of military personnel stationed all over the world. If something terrible happened to our country, these Soldier’s, Navy, Airmen and Marines would come home so fast your head would spin.

We would have Aircraft Carriers full of 5K Naval Seaman and Marines along with the assorted aircraft back at our shores within a week, if not sooner, after the start of such a disaster. These writers seem forget this when writing these stories.

I liked the book, the writing and the plot, but sometimes I would just like the author to remember that we have the biggest and most technological military in the world. These foreign powers would have to deal with hundreds of nuclear missiles coming at them from different directions the minute we knew where they came from.

We have a place called NORAD that would survive a direct Nuclear strike. They would direct the sea based assets as well as the land and air, the Nuclear Triad, to level the enemy country. This is why I don’t think that any other country, including North Korea, would be stupid enough to try it.

overall good

good story, bad readers. started off very slow. too much useless story lines, but believable.

Good but drawn out with a give up ending

The story was good but not riveting.
It moved very , very slow then suddenly ended with little rhyme or reason.

The 40 hour box set could have easily been accomplished in 20 hours.

I started to end it about 5 Times throughout, but hoped it would pick up pace.
It never did.
I don’t regret listening, but I wouldn’t do it again if I knew before hand.
Give it a try! Your opinion may differ from mine.

Loved this series

Love the storyline, action and the characters. Please continue this series with Jackson and Melinda as a set out to check the west and all new adventures please bring back the courageous characters and their new travels

unique story line

the author should have done more research. 1 month after 80% to 90% of America's population gone you should be having to hunt deer. no EMP you don't have to walk everywhere, you will not have look for food out of the dumpster. Just not completely believable.
