About this listen

America is in the thrall of a full-scale socioeconomic breakdown. The stock market plummets, hyperinflation destroys the value of the dollar, and the population, unprepared for hardship, panics. Practically overnight, the high-technology infrastructure and chains of supply collapse, and wholesale rioting and looting grip every city. Law enforcement, transportation, electricity, fuel, and medical supplies are all in the past now, as the country staggers beneath its own weight. Lawless bands of killers roam the countryside, leaving devastation in their wake and now that the government is gone, the Constitution is at stake. Who will carry on?

In this chaotic and dangerous environment, a few families and individuals, bound together by their faith, skills, and foresight, must struggle not only to survive day by day but defend themselves against a new and vicious predator - their fellow man.

Survivors is a shockingly realistic and lightening fast thriller about the coming implosion of America as we know it. Renowned survivalist expert James Wesley, Rawles has packed this story with the cold hard facts about how to stay alive in the face of mass riots, starvation, and anarchy. His expertise lends unforgettable, authentic detail to this season's most chilling novel. Listeners will not only be entralled, they will learn invaluable lessons on how to survive the coming collapse.

Fantastic story, hit another one out of the park

What made the experience of listening to Survivors the most enjoyable?

The plot line is fantastic, the story always keeps moving, and it is narrated very well.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

The suspense is great the detail is realistic and there are always a few turns you don't see coming.

Have you listened to any of Dick Hill’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Can't beat Dick Hill, his voice is the perfect narration for JWR's story

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

This book is a special treat and I would listen to it again all in one sitting. I usually listen on my way to and from work. Must admit I may have taken a little longer lunch last week while listening to it.

Any additional comments?

pay attention to the details, this is the whole point of the book.

Good story for the most part

The story was good. It portrayed the possibilities of the collapse of society in a financial calamity.
The narrator was one of the worst I’ve listened to. He started out terrible and only got very slightly better as the book went on. The book did give some accurate and useful information for prepping, self defense and tactics.

Good story but the Bible thumping was a bit much

My title is my basic review. The Bible reading wasn’t my cup of tea. The authors weird use of the characters first then last names randomly, often in the same sentence was confusing. “Andy said”… then later “Lane said” when the characters full name is Andy Lane (occasionally his formal full name Anders Lane adding more to the confusion. There was no rhyme or reason to it and it got annoying.

Great performance by the narrator as usual. Dick Hill is a pro through and through!

Dovetails Nicely with "Patriots..."

Whether you believe that Rawles' books are good stuff or guano is a matter of your political persuasion. I thought that this book might just be a repeat of the first one, but it dovetails nicely. The book is an enjoyable read. People who believe that social collapse is possible will enjoy this book--the situations are probably a lot more simplistic than a real social collapse. The author proselytizes a good bit, the Morse code abbreviations are boring and a few towns are misplaced by state--details, details, details. Author knows his guns. The story line does just kind of trail off...I guess that the smash ending is in the third book?
