About this listen

Three years have passed since the Jamaicans caused the apocalypse, and things in post-Armageddon Chicago have settled into a new kind of normal. Unfortunately, that "normal" includes collapsing skyscrapers, bands of bloodthirsty maniacs, and a dwindling cache of survival supplies. After watching his family, friends, and most of the non-sadistic elements of society crumble around him, Patrick decides it's time to cross one last item off his bucket list. He's going to Disney World.

This hilarious, heartfelt, gut-wrenching odyssey through post-apocalyptic America is a pilgrimage peppered with peril, as fellow survivors Patrick and Ben encounter a slew of odd characters, from zombie politicians and deranged survivalists to a milky-eyed oracle who doesn't have a lot of good news. Plus, it looks like Patrick may be hiding the real reason for their mission to the Magic Kingdom.

a high compliment from me is that this is very Robert Rankin-esque. I adore Mr Rankin. I have laughed out loud to this title more than a few times so far, the interactions and off hand comments made by characters are just sublime 🤌 I only wish it were double the length. I'll check more titles by this author, also the narrator made it come alive. nicely done all round

very Robert Rankin-esque

I couldn't get into the story, just didn't interest me enough and the characters were starting to get on my nerves.

Not for me

Based on good reviews Id hoped for something dystopian and funny. Unfortunately I hate the absence of characterisation, the falling back on boring steroetypes, the encounters in which the main protagonist again miraculously gets out of situations by just being a super smart ass at just the right moment, helped by the fact everyone else is cast as an idiot. It reads like the fantasy of a smug arse who didn't bother with coming to grips with empathy. 5 hours in and although things are post apocalyptic nothing genuinely interesting has happened.

I can't continue listening to this drivel
