About this listen

The Darkness is a fast-paced story of survival that brings the apocalypse to Main Street USA. While the world falls apart, Jacob Anderson barricades his family behind locked doors. News reports tell of civil unrest in the streets, murders, and disappearances; citizens are warned to remain behind locked doors. When Jacob becomes witness to horrible events and the alarming actions of his neighbors, he and his family realize everything is far worse than being reported. Every father's nightmare comes true as Jacob's normal life - and a promise to protect his family - is torn apart.

The narration was rough to listen to. I probably couldn't do any better and I don't want to be a jerk. I just couldn't finish, sorry. This is my first review.

The narration was hard to take.

It was a good book, but my god it went so fast it was hard to really get to know any characters. The main character whines constantly. I get Jacob, your scared, but man up guy. Geez. I'm going to listen to the next one because I'm sure he'll have to man up in it, right? Lol

Kinda fast

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I liked the pace at which it moved, I liked the characters and the action. I was seeing it play like a movie in my head and that only happens when I REALLY get into a story. Great stuff from WJ Lundy! Can't wait to get the next one!

Great...now I have to go buy the NEXT one!

Narrator made it hard to enjoy a good story! This story was good, but narrator made it painful at times to listen and difficult to enjoy threw out. I have listened to Kevin T. Collins before, and he is usually quite good. Must have had a bad day. Note to Author: redo this book with some one else and gift the improved version to your customers!

Jacob Anderson and family are fighting a battle they don’t quite understand. They heard news stories of riots and issues in the city, but they weren’t sure what was happening. They decided to leave their quiet neighborhood for somewhere safer when they were plowed into by another car. The people in the car were not… there anymore, they were replaced, or something else. The book starts off quick and just gets quicker as you follow Jacob on his attempt to figure out what is happening to these people, and tries to keep his family safe.

The narration of this is very well done. Professional and emotional. I like hearing what I feel like the author is trying to write out in a narrators voice. Kevin T Collins does a great job. His pacing and emotion made my heart race numerous times during this book. The pacing of the novel helps but Collins’ narration made it even better.

This is one of those books where it feels like everything is working against the main characters. Seriously, there were moments that I felt like the book was just going to end at any minute where everything comes crashing down. Without giving anything away, this book really had numerous times where I thought that the main characters were done and gone.

Overall, I really enjoyed this book. It was fast-paced but steady — like a marathon runner. This book kept my attention very well, because I really didn’t know what was going to happen next.
