Was good until

The author had to bring his political views into it, which has nothing to do with his story. I didn’t even finish after that.

Historia
In AD 793 Norse warriors struck the English isle of Lindisfarne and laid waste to it. Wave after wave of Norse "sea wolves" followed in search of plunder, land, or a glorious death in battle. Much of the British Isles fell before their swords, and the continental capitals of Paris and Aachen were sacked in turn. Turning east, they swept down the uncharted rivers of central Europe, captured Kiev, and clashed with mighty Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire.

Historia
Fourteen-year-old Greg Dixon is living a nightmare. Attending boarding school outside of Boston, he is separated from his family when a pandemic strikes.

Too sweet and happy for a post rapture survival
Revisado: 09-12-16
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
It just didn't seem realistic as to what it would be like in this world. Everyone was always sweet and nice, nobody got upset, angry or sad. The 2 characters who could have fit those roles, conveniently went away after only a few pages. These people seemed to eat better than most did before the "rapture". No struggle, everything fell into place as they needed. And the Christian based story was just to happy for a post apocolyptic tale.
What could Brad Manuel have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Make it a struggle. Let them survive as they did but make them work for it. There was no suffering, they needed food, they found food, They needed fuel, they found fuel with now work. Nobody got sick, nobody died or almost died. Come on.
What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
The narrator was ok, but with so many different characters it was hard to tell who was supposed to be speaking.
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from The Last Tribe?
The sugary sweet dialogue would have to be redone. Nobody speaks the way the characters in this book do.
Any additional comments?
if you like christian based, everybody is good and everything works out perfect in the end, this is your story. if you like realistic story, skip this.

In this powerful and immensely engaging follow-up to his first memoir, Sheff picks up where he left off and reveals his first-person account of stints at in-patient rehabilitation facilities, devastating relapses with alcohol and marijuana, and hard-won realizations about what it means to be a young adult living with addiction.

Good follow up
Revisado: 05-17-16
This was a good follow up to Tweak but honestly after a while it becomes the same thing over and over. Personally the reader's voice isn't how I imagined the author. But overall still an interesting read and good for anyone dealing with addiction

Nowhere near as good as the show.
Revisado: 04-19-16
It was definitely am someone else's story rather than a Kurt Sutter. The characters didn't seem the same and their actions didn't match what you would expect.
That being said, separate it from the original show and it's not a bad story.
I think my biggest issue, the narrator making Jax sound like Clint Eastwood in Dirty Harry
