About this listen
It’s been over six months since the eruption of the Yellowstone supervolcano. Alex and Darla have been staying with Alex’s relatives, trying to cope with the new reality of the primitive world so vividly portrayed in Ashfall, the first book in this trilogy.
It’s also been six months of waiting for Alex’s parents to return from Iowa. Alex and Darla decide they can wait no longer and must retrace their journey into Iowa to find and bring back Alex’s parents to the tenuous safety of Illinois.
But the landscape they cross is even more perilous than before, with life-and-death battles for food and power between the remaining communities. When the unthinkable happens, Alex must find new reserves of strength and determination to survive.

Story
Darla Edmunds has faced a lot of challenges in her 17 years: her dad died in a farming accident when she was 14, and her mother retreated into hyper-religiosity, leaving Darla to run the family farm almost single-handedly. But those struggles pale in comparison to the one she faces after the Yellowstone super-volcano erupts, plummeting the world - and Darla's small corner of Iowa - into a cataclysmic natural disaster.

When a series of devastating terror attacks brought down the United States, Conor and Barb assumed they were safe in their compound. They had everything they needed. They were armed and highly trained. But then, Barb was kidnapped. The kidnappers didn’t know why Conor was known as The Mad Mick. They didn’t know the fear and respect his name invoked in the shadowy underworld of covert operations. They didn’t know that when it came to protecting his family, he was without conscience, without compassion, and without equal. But they would soon find out.

Before the lights went out, Jack Warrant never considered himself a prepper. That was someone on the edge, a conspiracy theorist or a doomsday cultist who had a fatalistic view of the world. He was neither a theorist nor a cultist. He was an optimist. At least that was what he told himself when the darker thoughts creeped into his psyche as he stared at the ceiling in the middle of the night. Whenever he started down the rabbit hole, he always clawed his way back into the sunlight.

The Superpox-99 virus has wiped out nearly the entire human race. Governments have collapsed. Cities have become graveyards filled with unspeakable horror. People have resorted to scavenging from the dead, or taking from the living. The entire industrialized world has become a wasteland of abandoned cars, decaying bodies, and feral animals. To stay alive, U.S. Deputy Marshal Mason Raines must forage for food, water, and gasoline while outgunning those who seek to take advantage of the apocalyptic anarchy. Together with his giant Irish wolfhound, Bowie, he aligns with survivors of the town of Boone in a life and death struggle against a gang of violent criminals. With each deadly encounter, Mason is force to accept his place as one of the nation's few remaining lawmen. In a world now populated by escaped convicts, paranoid mutants, and government hit squads, his only hope to save the townspeople is to enforce his own brand of frontier justice.

The living dead are more alive than ever! Zombies have become more than an iconic monster for the 21st century: They are now a phenomenon constantly revealing as much about ourselves - and our fascination with death, resurrection, and survival - as our love for the supernatural or post-apocalyptic speculation. Our most imaginative literary minds have been devoured by these incredible creatures and produced exciting, insightful, and unflinching new works of zombie fiction.

pretty good story, poor narration
im enjoying the story, finished the first book and am aboit halfway through this one, the narration is fine, but not as good as the previous book. the main thing that i dont like about the story is the MCs inability for critical thinking, **SPOILER**
why waste time at the guard shack and get caught, why have all your supplies in one basket and not spread across the bike, and two backpacks or something, why stand up and get darla shot? After more than a year of this hell, anybody this oblivious to dangerous situations would have already been dead. other than that im enjoying the series, obviously enough that even though some bits annoy me im still going back to listen to it on my breaks at work.

amazing story, flat narration
the narrator on the first book was amazing. having the author narration on the second made it hard to get back into, the story is amazing, we absolutely love this series, just wish they kept the amazing narrator all the way through instead of switching to the monotone author for the rest of the series

Painful narration!
Obviously I enjoy the series as I purchased volume number two. However the narration made this enjoyable story a painful listening experience. I only continued to the end because I enjoy the story. In my opinion it was a huge mistake to change narrators. I truly want to continue with volume three but after listening to this I will most certainly need to think about it. this book wasn’t being offered freely. The author is asking fans to purchase this book. I truly can’t understand why you would narrate this book and not leave it to the professionals.

Why Did They Change The Narrator?
The story was well-written, I just wish the author would stick to his day job. The difference in narration between the first and second books has been incredibly frustrating. You can tell the narrator of the first book is a professional storyteller. The second story sounds like someone decided to "wing it". After some research, I was shocked to learn that the new narrator was the author himself. I had to stop periodically from the story to take a break from the poor narration.
It took about 20 chapters to get my head into the story properly. Once I did though, I was reminded why I tried so hard to do so.
The story is worth the purchase, just not through audible.

I love this series to this day
I start my journey with this book in middle school where I struggled with reading, but once I read this book series I was hooked. I recently wanted something to listen too while working and remembered this series, I've fallen back in love with it. I hope Mike keeps making these books because it fills me with inspiration to create evertime I listen/read this series.
p.s Message to Mike mullin, I once had an online video call with you as a class at grain valley Missouri, but I never got to ask the hundreds of questions I wanted to ask, so if you'd ever be willing to let me ask let me know and thank you for this series

Read this one, don't listen. The story is good!
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVED the first book. And this one was also full of adventure, survival and a good story line. It just fell a little short for me. The writing had some minor glitches, in my opinion, and the author narrated it himself, which affected my overall opinion. Narrators can really make or break a book. A professional actor can add voices and emotion to a story that help bring it to life. I would give Ashen Winter a 3.5 stars if I could, because I do feel it's better than a 3. It just didn't grab me like I want 4 & 5 star books to do. Still, I'm going to read the third book in the series. I need to know what happened to the likable characters! :)
