Summary
UKD1
"What would happen if……?"
Many people ask themselves the question, but how many actually do something about it?
Tom lives in Birmingham, England, with his family. After asking himself the question and researching what could happen, he decided it wouldn’t do any harm to be a little bit prepared. Just in case.
He discovers the world is going to be hit by a massive coronal mass ejection from the sun, which will turn the whole planet dark. He only has a few days to get ready. Will they survive?
People want what they have, but is he prepared to kill to protect it?
UKD2
Contact with Jerry’s brother has been made. Having defied all the odds and survived, will the group make it through the trials to come?
They’ve fought off brutal attacks and taken lives to protect their loved ones. Will the arrival of the army bring them security?
The answer is no. Powerful enemies are out there who will risk everything to take what they have. Will they be able to defeat them and keep everyone safe?
Continue to follow Tom, his family, his neighbors and friends as they face new challenges and threats to their very existence.
They are surviving. Would you?
UKD3
Winter is setting in, and the group must battle the worsening weather, as well as others who want to annihilate them. Cut off from any assistance the government can provide, they realize how tenuous their grip on survival is.
Facing plagues of rats, disease and death, the group is forced to make a fateful decision: evacuate the compound so that some can survive the disease; those who stay to care for family who have succumbed to the plague face almost certain death.

Finally a UK based Apocalypse story!
And such a great one at that. Being from the UK, this story was refreshing and relatable. Rather than the main character being a former soldier, Spy or SAS type, he's just a block dabbling in preparedness.
The vulnerability of the characters was so real and the negation helped to further bring them to life.
I could imagine myself in these situations, reacting in the same ways, fighting with the same decisions.
What a fantastic listen.

Brilliant
I really enjoyed listening to this trilogy (which is great value). The pace of the storyline was pitched right and the storyline itself was great. I liked that there was enough detail given however the author didn’t go into overkill and made it seem boring. This book is about the “everyday” person going through an apocalyptic event. The main characters are people we can relate to.
I really loved that the storyline was based in the U.K. as I can relate to that more. The narrator was perfect for this book. He did a fantastic job. This is definitely worth listening to.

It's ok.
Not great. It is obviously written by a conservative. My bet: a white middle aged, middleclass man.
The excruciating gender stereotyping where men are men or want to be, and succeed to be, men, and women are women will really get on the nerves on someone even mildly liberal or, well, not conservative. The author is clearly not comfortable writing female characters, which is probably why he basically hasn't. All leading characters are male. The protagonist's wife gets some lines and a few "woah, she's tough for a girl"-moments, but that only seems to underline the lack of female character depth.
[mild spoilers below!]
As in all post-apocalyptic books there needs to be a degree of suspended disbelief, but when the author mixes virus and bacteria as though they're the same thing, it really pushes it. Also stating the plague could be stopped by face masks even though he earlier stated it was spread by fleas. Oh, and if all electronics on earth was knocked out, how the hell did satellites survive?
That said, the narration was superb and the story entertaining enough.

Good to have a story based in the UK
Easy listening. Quaint and amusing in places. If you like apocalypse type stories then this one is okay.
