About this listen
America is in the thrall of a full-scale socioeconomic breakdown. The stock market plummets, hyperinflation destroys the value of the dollar, and the population, unprepared for hardship, panics. Practically overnight, the high-technology infrastructure and chains of supply collapse, and wholesale rioting and looting grip every city. Law enforcement, transportation, electricity, fuel, and medical supplies are all in the past now, as the country staggers beneath its own weight. Lawless bands of killers roam the countryside, leaving devastation in their wake and now that the government is gone, the Constitution is at stake. Who will carry on?
In this chaotic and dangerous environment, a few families and individuals, bound together by their faith, skills, and foresight, must struggle not only to survive day by day but defend themselves against a new and vicious predator - their fellow man.
Survivors is a shockingly realistic and lightening fast thriller about the coming implosion of America as we know it. Renowned survivalist expert James Wesley, Rawles has packed this story with the cold hard facts about how to stay alive in the face of mass riots, starvation, and anarchy. His expertise lends unforgettable, authentic detail to this season's most chilling novel. Listeners will not only be entralled, they will learn invaluable lessons on how to survive the coming collapse.
©2011 James Wesley Rawles (P)2011 Brilliance Audio, Inc.Some of the storylines were quite good and it has not bored me like other notable best sellers but I must admit I was very disappointed by the end, there are positively fistfuls of loose strings, it felt like half the book was missing. Rawles should have perhaps focused on fewer characters and given a more detailed account of their survival. I would have given the book an automatic 4 stars if no mention of sexual violence was used either but alas the author couldn’t help himself, absolutely no bad language in the whole book and sickly moral but references to rape had to be included even though brief and non descript, I can’t remember the last book I heard without any.
Rawles is not a bad fiction writer and is clearly very successful at his survival blog but he has failed to join the two together here, hopefully audible will include his first book Patriots which I hear is better. I think this book is average but I suspect if I was not a fan of the genre I'd probably hate it. It might though show people the fragility of our system and make them think.
