    About this audiobook

    Cotton Crossing was a dead end, but not for Ginny Mills. She's just marking time, getting experience in the county library system, before moving back to a decent urban environment. Then the phones stop working.

    Lee Quartine knows there's no way the pretty girl at the library will even look at him. Especially since he can't open his mouth. He knows he's a hick, but when the power starts going out and the woods are full of strange creatures, it's good to have someone around who can build a fire. And kill.

    Ginny, Lee, and their small band of survivors can't stay put, and moving is dangerous. The infected are shambling in the hills and the concrete canyons of cities.

    It's gonna be a long trip . . .

      I love the development of the characters so far and including a dog in the story.

      2.75 Stars for me!

      The story has some good portions but too much time is spent in the head of the H. I was almost wondering at the beginning of the story if he was going to be a psychopath bent on kidnapping the h to be his ideal woman.

      The h is not very likable throughout the first book in this series. Very judgmental and sees herself as far above the rift raft of the lowly southern mentality. Those people who she looks down on are the only ones who might be able to save her.

      Note to authors... Throwing feminist rants during life or death situations seems to be a waste of time and drives some of us readers crazy. Sometimes you do what you are best at and forget the things meant to divide us. In the H's case, he has military training so he knows more when it comes to thinking tactically.

      Definitely worth the time, great story and characters so far and the narrator is doing an amazing job.
