About this listen
One moment everything is perfectly normal, and in the next the power grid across the entire United States goes down and sends the country back to the Stone Age. The lights flicker out. Cars crash. Phones and laptops quit working. Planes fall from the sky. Fires rage. Hoards of angry mobs take to the street looting and pillaging. Millions perish in the horrific aftermath.
With the cities completely overwhelmed with death and destruction, the forests of the Pacific Northwest seem to be the only place of possible safety or refuge. That's what brothers Randall and Thomas think as they fight their way to their family's secluded cabin to locate their grandparents, parents, and cousins, only to instead find themselves proven completely wrong as a new deadly threat from the woods emerges.
Trapped in an unforgiving world without help, Randall, Thomas, and the rest of their family must trust in one another and put their skills to the ultimate test to fight back against the overwhelmingly dark forces that now directly threaten their very existence.

I had high hopes…
I love this genre of books. It’s a guilty pleasure, and having read or listened to so many I had really high hopes for this one. It was cool to see a grid down story taking place somewhere other than eastern United States for a change and the idea of 2 brothers trekking cross country through the Idaho wilderness, heading to a family bug out location sounded awesome.
But with massive plot holes, and seemingly some of the worst prepared preppers I’ve read about things went down hill fast. So much potential, but the story was meteocre at best and the dialogue and repetitive nature of the story telling was painful. And it would have to be a book I really, really, really wanted to hear for me to ever listen to another one narrated by the same narrator. The previous reviewers comments on him sounding like a weak shatner were bang on, and some of the vocal impressions of other characters (especially the deeper, supposedly menacing voices) were almost comical. After the first 30mins of the story I continued listening to it in 1.5x speed to power through to the end and atleast the narration seemed at a normal pace that way.

Not a good review.
The narrator Rudy Sanda is in short hard to listen to. He sounds like the stand up comic version of William Shatner at his Stratford best. Longer he has terrible voice control and his deeper voices are the worse (whatever you consider worse than terrible).
The story itself is fine for the EMP style. But I’ve read better plot lines. I really hate when you read a few minutes of action only to have it repeated moments later from someone else recounting what happened. I would go that in school to boost word count but it’s sooo cheap.
In short I cannot in good conscience leave a positive review.

I really tried to like it.
The narrator had an abrasive voice and at least 1/3 of the novel was dedicated to talking about various types of guns. The storyline was weak. I just couldn't finish it.

Narration was so awful I don't know if the story was good.
I couldn't listen anymore. As soon as the narrator started trying to create new voices for different characters I turned it off. I don't normally give bad reviews but this narration was beyond horrible.
don't try to do voices buddy. You make every character sound ridiculous.
