About this listen

Book 2 of the series American Apocalypse continues the heroic struggles of an unlikely band of survivors in Southern Oregon. Joe Harp, the leader, was an overweight auto mechanic without any special survival skills. He had never been in the military but did know how to hunt, fish, and camp. He also had some notes his Grandma left him plus some survival books and supplies his Grandpa left him in an old cabin in the woods. Cobie Simms worked as a clerk at an outdoors store. She was working hard to survive before the SHTF while raising her daughter alone. Joe and Cobie team up to fight the evil around them and make life better for those in their small group. Cobie has been abducted in Book 1, and now Joe has to find her and bring her back to her back to him and her daughter. Many perils from gangs, starving neighbors, and disease still have to be dealt with, as Joe leads his people through the apocalypse.

Could you survive an apocalypse? Do you have military or special survival skills? Joe does not. If Joe can survive by using common sense, survival manuals, and good luck so can you.

This was an interesting read on a post apocalyptic society. The series was focused on rape, sex, human trafficking, drugs, and guns. There was more background on the types of guns and ammo than on character build-up. The background on humans being good versus bad seemed naive - people were either good or evil with no in-between.
The series did keep me interested, but not captivated. The performance reminded me of a grandpa telling a story (but not to children, obviously). It was dry, but I found it enhanced the story.

Different perspective on survival

Hard to not like this book. Great characters plenty of action. Sometimes predictable but it is a good story.
Joe picks up right where he left off in the last book and tries to put life back together by grow in the community.

Solid story

love this series. Zombie apocalyptic adventures are all over the place. this being the same survival that humans would have to deal with. but with realistic problems it is so much better to get lost in. listen to while falling asleep to promote good bad dreams that are better then any movie ever. the performance has its realistic comedy adult in nature. love it

finishes book 2 perfectly then continues to grab

Book two continues the apocalyptic survival saga of Joe Harp as he applies his version of common sense and protectiveness towards his friends and situations as they arise. Just as Joe is cementing the relationship with Cobie and Chloe, Cobie disappears. In dealing with his anger and frustration, Joe finds it much easier to put down gang-bangers and ne’er do wells while searching for Cobie. I love the characters; they are each unique and realistic to me. The relationships between characters bring a softer side to the apocalypse and are very well done in my opinion. Granted, some of the dialogue is sophomoric but did not stand out or prove disruptive to me. I enjoyed the story and look forward to more.

A kinder, gentler apocalypse!
