About this listen
Whether hunter or prey, survival doesn't come easy on the other side of the wall.
After escaping from New Chicago, Marisol and Elias take shelter in the quarantine zone only to be stalked by nightmarish, blood-enhanced creatures called Threshers. But that’s not the worst of it as they find themselves struggling to survive against Longman’s assassins and weaponized Reaper mechs who are hunting them down.
All is not lost, however, as Marisol’s enhancements keep them in the clear long enough to find a small group of survivors. Joining forces with the potential allies, they're forced to confront their fears and work together to find a way to topple New Chicago’s brutal dictator before he discovers a secret weapon to destroy the world.

Story
You Can’t Be Serious is a series of funny, consequential, awkward, and ridiculous stories from Kal Penn’s idiosyncratic life. It’s about being the grandson of Gandhian freedom fighters, and the son of immigrant parents: people who came to this country with very little and went very far—and whose vision of the American dream probably never included their son sliding off an oiled-up naked woman in the raunchy Ryan Reynolds movie Van Wilder…or getting a phone call from Air Force One as Kal flew with the country’s first Black president.

It was just a random mutation - one of a billion that happen in viruses every day. But this one was different. It exploded out of Somalia and spread across the oceans before anybody thought to look up from their cell phones to see what was going on. The infected breathed the virus into the air around them, spreading it through the cities faster than anyone thought possible. Hospitals were overwhelmed. Police lines crumbled. Quarantine sites disintegrated. Cities started to collapse.

Twenty years ago, the Merge brought armies of monsters flooding into the West Coast. Dungeons popped up in shopping malls, airports, and Starbucks. Walls were built to contain the spread, but the promise of priceless loot dropped by the creatures inspired a new type of gold rush. Clay Jaeger has nothing left outside the walls. Civilization took everything he worked for, chewed it up, and spat it out. Now Clay, his wife Alex, and his beer-loving, chainsaw-toting brother, Joe, are going west to try their hand at monster killing.

In the beginning, the gods destroyed the world. Five hundred years later, things haven’t gotten much better for humans. The demigods that were left behind to guard over humanity have been using them as fodder for an endless civil war between themselves, and the humans just go on dutifully slaughtering each other, battle after battle. It’s not all bad, though. Perry McGown makes his living off those bloody, stinking battlefields. He works on a crew that reclaims all the spent shell casings. But if anyone found out that he was a deserter from the war, he’d be executed for heresy.

Humanity listened to the night sky. What we heard shattered the world. Listen. Just once. That’s it. As soon as you hear it, it has you. And once it has you, it’s over. You may think you’re in control. You’re not. You want one more listen. You want to look at that strange spot in the sky. The one that’s been slowly growing. The one that didn’t make sense...until you listened. You want to listen again, and you will do whatever it takes to make everyone else listen. By any means necessary. Even if it kills you. Just one more listen. One more. Listen.

Story
In the beginning, the gods destroyed the world. Five hundred years later, things haven’t gotten much better for humans. The demigods that were left behind to guard over humanity have been using them as fodder for an endless civil war between themselves, and the humans just go on dutifully slaughtering each other, battle after battle. It’s not all bad, though. Perry McGown makes his living off those bloody, stinking battlefields. He works on a crew that reclaims all the spent shell casings. But if anyone found out that he was a deserter from the war, he’d be executed for heresy.

Gutsy and her friends, along with Benny and his crew, have just survived a massive attack on New Alamo by the Night Army - a mix of mindless shambling los muertos and sentient half-zombie ravagers. She's also reeling from the revelation that the residents of her town were the lab rats of the biological testing facility linked to creating the most dangerous zom, the Raggedy Man, who controls all of the living dead. And the first raid was only a test. The real Night Army is coming, and this time, it'll be a handful of survivors against seven billion zombies.

A Solid Second Book
4.5 out of 5 stars
Designated Survivors didn’t spend the beginning of the book telling you what happened in book one, instead it just throws the reader over the edge of the boat and expects them to swim along. I spent the first 30 minutes or so theoretically gasping for breath trying to figure out what was going on. I even took a moment to read my review of book one (which I didn’t finish that long ago) just to figure out where book one left off and where book two was going to start.
I liked that though, I don’t mean to write any of that and be negative. It allowed book two to stand on its own instead of relying on book one to lean on. It allowed the story itself to shine instead of the overarching plotline of the series. Book two felt important (where most book two’s seem to be a “okay, let’s just move the timeline along enough so that the story makes sense in later books in the series.)
Probably one of my favorite parts of this was the fact that you couldn’t tell it was written by two different authors. The views, storytelling, and everything else that goes into writing a book didn’t change between chapters or even mid-chapter. It was a well thought out and well told story.
Both books in this series lean a little bit on the LitRPG aspect, but in Designated Survivors it isn’t as much in focus. Sure there are still scenes where they talk about XP (one particular one that stood out was after a fight/battle the one character talked about how surprised they were that XP showed up all the way out where they were). I like that it has those elements without being a full-on LitRPG. It’s able to tell you a story as if that’s just part of it, instead of telling about the gamelit stuff and then needing to build a story around that.
Overall, a great second addition that felt like it belonged. Add in the narration by Gary Bennett and you have a winner. Gary is able to give the story some gravitas with his deep and booming voice.

Interesting read
While the elements of the book are nothing new, I’ve never quite heard of them pieces together in such an interesting way. Definitely worth a read!
