With a credible threat to the US and a plane stuck on the tarmac, Grant Walton is 30 seconds from full-blown panic mode. He's the only one in the airport who knows the truth.

Pure fun!
I can't shake the feeling that I've seen this book as a movie,
I might be wrong and it might just be a similarity but it's not bad and a great book to just pick up and enjoy, have fun, I sure did and I hope that book 2 will continue on the same path.
I can easily recommend this series, the preference was done perfectly.
Lately authors work really hard to make Their books as complicated as possible so it's refreshing to find a series that is simple on the brain and just lets you relax and enjoy.
Yes on recommendation.

An Average Post-Apocalyptic Survival Story
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
Unfortunately, not.
The Story was OK but a little predictable and felt like many other end of the world survival story, nothing new seemed to be brought to the table here to make it feel original. I was glad this was a short book and was tempted to stop reading part way through.
What will your next listen be?
The Rage War Series by Tim Lebbon and John Chancer after a recommendation.
Would you be willing to try another one of Andrew Tell’s performances?
Again, unfortunately not.
Andrew managed to make each character individual and voices could be easily decerned as to which character was supposed to be speaking but there was something in the way he read I just couldn't get on. It kind of felt like a surprised Captain Kirk was narrating this and I found it distracting.
Did Fight to Survive inspire you to do anything?
I'm afraid not.

The hosta virus
The Hosta virus, named after an attractive plant and which leaves it's victims grinning.
An excellent quick to read start to a new series which combines intelligence with a feeling of plausible reality.
After the virus sweeps around the world killing an estimated 96% of the population, four adults and a child come together to try to survive. They head out to a lodge in New Mexican,, but are any of them prepared for what lies ahead?
Andrew Tell's narration is excellent, the reading clear and well paced with good differentiation of character voices. A pleasure to hear.
I look forward to the next book of this hard action but, unusually, non hysterical series

An Above Average Post-Apocalyptic Story
The Smiling Sickness leaves people dead in a few days with a smile from ear to ear like they died doing something they loved. Before then - they are mysteriously gray and unknowingly passing the disease among family and friends. There are a few who have managed to come out of it without the sickness but having lost everyone they loved.
The virus in Fight To Survive was pretty well written. I'm usually someone who wants more about the disease and less about the preparedness (I love Bio-Thrillers), but I thought that Bowman gave me just enough to be curious without giving too much that I could shoot holes through. I love that the little girl knew the percentage of people it had killed off before anyone else did. I can't imagine what a world that lost 96% of its population would be like.
At first, all I could think is "oh no, is this going to be one of the stories where everyone is completely nice and they pick everyone up on their way to the lodge?" Thankfully, Bowman cut that out after the beginning (it was a nice set up to get everyone in one place though). It's hard with how many post-apocalyptic books for me to not find something I dislike - in Fight To Survive it might be just how quickly things hit the fan. I think that dealing with what was described would take a little while for people to even realize what was going on - let alone turn to the dark side. Sure, for the pacing of the book, it's totally understandable though.
Bowman did a nice job at creating characters that were unique to each other with their own strengths and weaknesses. I like that a "city girl" was thrown into the mix who wasn't familiar with guns, homesteading, or farming. It's not to throw a wild card into the fire like that because then it's not 5 people who know what they're doing against the world. It was also nice to see a bit of naivety shown by everyone in the group. Most of the time people just know what to do when everything falls apart but the reality is that most people would be scared to death and make mistakes.
Overall, Fight To Survive could be the start of a really interesting series. Adding Andrew Tell's narration - I'm betting that this series will surprise me.

It’s a great start to a new series. There was nothing terribly surprising about the story but it was enjoyable and kept me hooked. I definitely want more.
Really enjoyed the narration. Very well done.

Plausibility problems
Predictable. Doesn't really bring anything new to the genre. Scenario is a rapid pandemic, that plays in out a matter of days, leaving between 2% and 8% survivors. Naturally, the story centers on the typical crusty, secretly heartbroken, hero who bugs out to the mountains. Because that where ALL survivors go, of course. The hero rounds up a small group of allies, and then fights off the rest of the remaining survivors, who have gone ferally evil.
The problem with this scenario is that the rapid pandemic progress would leave tons of resources behind in the stores and houses. There's very little reason for the evil ones to think that taking from the heroes holed up in an isolated cabin on a mountain is easier than just busting into the nearest mall or grocery store. Once the scenario is setup, there's no plausibility to the climax sequence.
None of these stories ever answer the question of WHY someone turns evil. WHY is taking from a fellow survivor easier than taking from an abandoned store or house? Write the story that explains that, and you might do something to elevate the genre.

A very solid post apocalypse survival story
I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
The overall premise is nothing new, a post apocalyptic survival story. That being said, I thought it was very well executed. I thought the narrator, too, did a good job of bringing the story to life. If you're a fan of this genre, and ok with it not being anything groundbreaking, than this is well worth your time.
