Too many Cliches!

I cannot understand how this book gets a good review from anybody - one bad cliche after another, poor writing, no, terrible writing. Good narration. Sentence after sentence that does not logically follow the one before it. No character development at all. The head of the the drug cartel is described as "deciding he would not be poor, and soon he became the go to guy for people to get anything they want" done - total character development. I tried to like this book because I like the genre, impossible, it is a bad book and nothing redeems it.
Not recommended, not one second of it.

Listen to a speed reader?

What disappointed you about The Long Road - A Post Apocalyptic Novel?

I don't know what they were thinking. It was like listening to a speed reader. I couldn't listen to the whole book. Can't believe I paid for this one too.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Joseph Morton?

Toby Leonard Moore

For those who enjoy a vivid apocalyptic survival based journey you will not be disappointed, but CAUTION - YOU WILL EXPERIENCE A LOSS OF SLEEP. This story, books one and two, my fellow end of times story seekers, took me on a vividly written and narrated journey that started when I hit the play button and ended when the nice man from Audible thank me for my purchase.To the person who masterfully describe ever evolving happiness, sadness, hopefulness, disparity, anger, and compassion thank you and very nicely done you incredible word putter together-er!

I am glad I waited it out! Not to be disappointed!

If you could sum up The Long Road - A Post Apocalyptic Novel in three words, what would they be?

A great story leading into another story. I love this series.

What do you think the narrator could have done better?

The narrator started off reading this book really fast. Just as I was irritated and almost put it down the problem was fixed and it became the enjoyable read just I was hoping for, as the first book.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Story made me laugh and cry as I grew attached to the characters

I couldnt wait for the next book! Was not disappointed by this book at all. I am glad that the initial issue of the narrator reading too fast was fixed. I recommend this book and the entire series!

Great Story

There was 1 incredibly annoying part that just about ruined the book, I only hope book 3 justifies it. If not, then this would be the first time i ever read a book with such rich opportunities be ruined by the actions in 1 paragraph.

Skips!!!

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

Yes, if you like real world survival novels this series is good. I had to read, could not listen because it was skipping too bad. The tech support was no help at all, I'm about to delete the Audible app.

If you’ve listened to books by G. Michael Hopf before, how does this one compare?

Very good book

Definitely happy with this story. It's nice to see a different out come. Not h
Just survival, but how they build America. The story does get confusing at some points multiple story lines going on at once.

great book!

love this book. it goes by too fast. the narrator is great except that he struggles to demonstrate emotion in key moments.
