About this listen

A riveting new post-apocalyptic EMP box set that keeps you guessing until the end!

EMP masterminds Alexandria Clarke, author of Blackout, and James Hunt, author of Static and Surviving the Collapse, come together in this super box set for the first time!

Blackout: A Tale of Survival in a Powerless World

After an EMP bomb detonates over the United States, frying the entire electrical grid, Georgie Fitz decides to take refuge at her estranged father’s cabin in the Rocky Mountains with her boyfriend and his family. When they arrive, Georgie discovers that a group of survivalists have already erected a camp there, and her father is nowhere to be found. As she adjusts to her new normal, she has trouble adhering to the survivalists’ rules. Can she fit in at the camp and find out what happened to her father?

Static: An EMP Thriller

The thin thread holding the civilized world together has been severed. Millions of citizens have been thrust into the unknown, breeding fear into the minds and souls of those seeking to survive. Wren Burton, an architect from Chicago, has been engulfed by the chaotic aftermath of an EMP blast. Her family is injured. The enemy is unknown. And help is nowhere to be found.

Surviving the Collapse

What happens when all means of transportation and communication suddenly vanish? What happens when you can’t call for help? What happens when the only person you can rely on is yourself? Captain Kate Hillman is about to discover those answers after an EMP sends New York City, and its nine million residents, back into the stone age.

Meh

Stories were so-so. Narration was pretty terrible. Flat and very little difference in each characters voice.

Romona Master is a terrible narrator

The first set of books in this super box set is so poorly narrated by Romona Master that it is almost unlistenable. Her delivery is as though she is reading the material for the first time and is surprised by every sentence. Her cadence and inflection is so far off base it’s as though a 15 year old is performing for her class.

The only thing that got me through was the knowledge that 2 other narrators would take over, but I was close to abandoning the book.

The rest of the series is 4/5 Star EOTWAWKI stuff that I love.

This was difficult to force myself to listen...

I love emp stories but the narrator should not try to imitate a man's voice.
She tried but ended sounding like a gargled irritating voice. The stories also did not made me sympathetic for the main protagonist.

It's quite terrible. Not worth your time

The first series I wasn't a big fan of because everyone and everyone was rather redundant, but it was tolerable.
The second series I genuinely cannot stand, I've fallen asleep three times listening to it. It is one of the most ridiculous books ever.
Honestly given up at this point.

Unbelievable

Many errors and unbelievable moments. Things Kate did where just ridiculous at times wasting ammunition the kids being tied up but being able to run away troopers not digging out their building and many more

You feel the tension

#Audible1

This group of stories reignited my fears of an EMP. This sounds like a bad thing but isn’t that what good writing should do? Elicited strong emotional responses from the reader. The only criticism I would give is that I felt there was room for more of a negative impact to some of the characters in one or two of the stories, not everything would be a safe ending in these scenarios.

Just couldn't do it

Horrible narration and flat story. I don't think I've ever been this annoyed by a narrator. I just couldn't keep listening after 4 hours.

Not well researched by the writers

I did not like these books, more suited to a young teenager. Many many things were inaccurate and just plain silly!
A passenger jet with an ignition key, Seriously?? Here just take my antique aircraft because I’m a nice guy??
I couldn’t finish this, it’s really bad!!
