About this listen

"On day 16, the symptoms either begin to subside, or the patient suffers a massive seizure and expires." (CDC Outbreak Update)

When Cal Bohannon went to work on Friday morning, he felt the world was teetering on a knife’s edge, but what he didn’t expect was a microscopic enemy rapidly spreading south of the border.

New to preparing for disasters, Cal’s family, along with a small band of friends, will have their survival plans tested as the fragile threads of society quickly unravel around them.

Can the fledgling group come together in time as the authorities scramble to gain control over the sudden contagion and hysteria?

What if the virus isn’t their biggest problem, but just the beginning of something much worse?

The typical apocolipse book that seems to be everywhere, starts before the event people become preppers or have some sort of forethought about what's going on but not taking it seriously. Boring one dimensional characters who do basically nothing

Meh

The Shadow 'flu virus came into the United States via South America: a virulent form, one of two at the time, and fatal. The Unraveling, traces the early disruption caused as people fell prey to the illness and the focusing of a group of people in Florida determined to make a stand to survive the failing society.
This is very much a prepper book, with careful explanations and advise given either character to character or direct to the reader and it conveys a real sense of reality: there's excitement and action but it feels slow moving, deliberate, as if it really is happening. Starting in Venezuela, the story itself moves north into the United States. Characters come and go again until the central group members of family and friends are introduced, then action mostly revolves around them. As the pages turn, they begin to become convincing personalities with whom the reader can engage. This is very much assisted by narrator Andrew B.Wehrlen, whose fast paced, relaxed performance perfectly matches the text and gives individual voice to each of the protagonists.

The Unravelling, is packed: information as well as story and character development. It has more the feel of a report than a fictional thriller, which makes it all the more terrifying: bad things are happening around people the reader has grown to know. My thanks to the rights holder o, who, at my request, freely gifted me with a complimentary copy, via Audiobook Boom. Everything is in place: let the full story unfold. I, for one, look forward to the rest of the sefies. If you enjoy a good pandemic apocalypse this is the book for you.

The come-as-you-are apocalypse.
