The storyline was weak, the author meanders way too much and there is no closure... I'm no longer invested.

the storyline was predictable and spent the majority of the narrative pontificating about the wisdom of prepping and how all of the great unwashed masses deserved what was coming to them when society imploded... it was preachy and condescending. I regret purchasing the story.

I think the author, Craig Alanson, is a talented story teller, and I thoroughly enjoy his stories... that is.. until recently. The earlier books in the series explored some very creative story and character development, but as the series has continued, the quality of the story-telling has faltered, the dilemmas faced by the characters have become more impossible, the lead up to the resolution too protracted, and the solutions, once presented, are all the more improbable. I'm concerned the author is in danger of losing their way with this series which would be a real shame.

Also, there are too many stalls in the overall forward motion of the story, too much rehash of previous plot lines and escapades, and some chapters are clearly unimportant to the story-line and I question why they are there. Also, I think the author has crossed the line regarding the level of social justice sermonizing... If I wanted to hear this message, I would just turn on MSNBC or CNN... As it is, I don't fully ascribe to the authors sensibilities and I find it grating.

I read the previous book "The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August", and was really looking forward to this book only to be really disappointed. The author had a great premise for the story with so much potential which never materialized. The constant stream of conciousness interlaced through the story was distracting/irritating/annoying, and OVERUSED. I really wish I hadn't made the purchase.
