Publisher's summary

In the time it takes to create a single beat of a heart, 75 percent of the population drops dead. Within hours, another 20 percent succumb, leaving only a speck of human life remaining.

Believing they are victims of a preliminary act of war and eventual invasion, a group of survivors trek across a barren United States following a radio signal. The simple plan was to band with others to fight and defend their homeland. However, their journey not only brings them together with other survivors but also brings them a chilling truth. What had happened to their country was not a prelude to invasion, but rather the groundwork of global extermination.

The enemy is not what they expect.

Decent Post-Apocalypse Tale

What did you love best about A Path to Utopia?

I am writing this review a few days after listening and I am having a little trouble remembering exactly what I liked so much about the story. That's unusual for me so I guess that says something. It did not blow my socks off but it was well told and entertaining. If you are really in to post apocalypse fiction put this one on the list. It isn't a struggle to get through and it isn't too heavy. The mystery of why the world has ended (nearly everyone in the U.S. just drops dead one day) is what I found most engaging. I will probably listen to the sequel but it isn't on my list of must-have-cannot-wait listens. Overall it is probably a 3.75.

Superb!

This book was very entertaining from start to finish. It was imaginative and often amusing. I do think that there could at least have been a sequel, there are so many places that this book could have been taken. Great listen all round!

Not bad

I liked the story. I loved how funny or is. Good characters. Just wish there was less cussing.

Sound issues

In the attempt to play all the characters, the narrator’s voice drops really low, then really loud. It was hard to adjust a volume to hear the whole thing.

Her worst book yet!!!!!

I have read so many of Miss Druga books, but this one did not make the cut. I don’t know what to say about this book. From the aliens, to the buried creatures, to the second and third wave, to baby Martha, to the weird relationship between Jen and Robbie. This book was all over the place! So many unnecessary characters. And HOW did the molecules from the virus manifest into the monsters??

Buds character seemed like he was taken directly from Zapp Brannigan from Futurama. And Moss talked like Yoda the entire book. No no, no no no!
