About this listen

What would you do if the world as you knew it suddenly came crashing down around you?

A financial system in shambles, America slowly slips closer and closer toward collapse.

As everything is in ruin, a suburban city burns.

As small group of unlikely survivors bands together to weather the storm. A few well prepared, well-armed, and well-trained friends band together. Police Officer John Gonzalez, recently wounded in the line of duty, rallies his group of thrown-together friends into a tight group to survive the end of the world as we know it in the City of Kankakee, an hour South of Chicago.

Virtual Voice is disappointing

Pretty good overall story and storyline. Interested in seeing where it goes. Virtual is really bad in my opinion.

can't handle the bland narration

We're it not for the lifeless narration this most likely would be a good book. I could only handle a couple hours of it.

Would have been a good book except for the narration. Not a fan of AI.

The story is very captivating

Decent story vague at times almost like a rinse and repeat with the different law enforcement agencies
