Story
For dinosaurs, it was a big rock. For humans: Coronal Mass Ejection (CME). When the Earth is hit by the greatest CME in recorded history (several times larger than the Carrington Event of 1859), the combined societies of the planet's most developed nations struggle to adapt to a life thrust back into the Dark Ages. In the United States, the military scrambles to speed the nation's recovery on multiple fronts including putting down riots, establishing relief camps, delivering medical aid, and bringing communication and travel back on line. Just as a real foothold is established in retaking the skies (utilizing existing commercial aircraft supplemented by military resources and ground control systems), a mysterious virus takes hold of the population, spreading globally over the very flight routes that the survivors fought so hard to rebuild.

Story
Ranger Quinn thought that morning would be like so many others. A hangover, a day off before going back to work keeping the lower levels of Zion City safe from itself. But a crime so horrific, so brutal in its execution, turns those mundane expectations around. An investigation into the death of a senior leader in their underground utopia safe from the harsh radioactive wastelands beyond their walls forces Quinn beyond that safety and into the world outside.

We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

Teenage boys' fantasy
I started to listen to this vast, post-apocalyptic fantasy purely because, unusually, it's set in England, not the US, after an inexplicable disease has wiped out around 99% of the global population. Like all novels of the genre it is about a small group of immune survivors who have inherited a suddenly empty world. When I'd checked there weren't, at least, any zombies in it I gave it a go.
The first volume, Survival, was nearly enough for me. Ford is a novelist only by courtesy. His characters are cardboard, he has no sense of place, his dialogue is frequently ridiculous, and even his grammar and sentence-structure are more than suspect. His reliance on the passive voice, presumably to pad out his sentences, is maddening: just having a character light, smoke and discard a cigarette can take most of a paragraph. He has no sense of pacing - his idea of a plot is to chain together one violent encounter after another, described in stomach-churning detail. This is unashamed, unadorned male adolescent fantasy, complete with a spunky, teenage heroine, played out with the biggest of big lethal toys looted from military bases, told in basic English.
Nevertheless... George Orwell once said that reading simple-minded popular fiction is like the taste for cheap sweets. Despite myself I kept on with this, right to the end of the series in fact. The sheer size of the story means that one does get to know the characters, trite as they are. Ford's obsessive interest in the most minute details of military hardware (no idea how accurate this is) and the sheer, remorseless plodding accumulation of detail - nothing is too trivial - does grip you a bit despite yourself, like the descriptions in 'Robinson Crusoe' of looting his shipwreck down to the last barrel of nails. My recommendation: don't start this if you suspect you might not be able to resist it.
The gravel-voiced narrator does his best with the material, though I suspect he might have gone in for some eye-rolling in places.

Tedious
Have you ever played the game with a friend where you are driving down the street and you both imagine there has been an apocalypse and you can choose any vehicle you see and explain why and how you would use it? This book does that and the whole idea of this type of scenario has become overdone, worn, predictable and boring.
R. C. Bray is a very good narrator but I prefer genuine accents for the geography. The real world media is awash with north American voices so please give us a break.

Really not that good.
I purchased this book as it had very good reviews and I wanted something easy going in my favorite genre. I found this book extremely simplistic, predictable and not particularly imaginative.

Simplistic story read poorly
Hey, I like an end of the world novel narrated by R.C. Bray as much as the next guy (Mountain Man, Commune etc).
But this one is set in England, and try as he might, Mr Bray cannot cope with the accents.
Where all the thousands of British voice actors busy that day?
But my main gripe is the simplistic and generic tone of the book.
Don’t bother.

cardboard women for two manly men
Book seemed okay, until the cardboard women were introduced. First we meet the 12yo, and the story suddenly becomes about the man not behaving like a pedophile, then we meet the women and her cardboard demure... Two blokes making jokes and being witty, and then her.
At this point the narrator reminds us that life just got harder for the men who are now on "women and children" protection duty, and they both need sensible clothes. They are treated like useless idiots in contrast to the men who just get straight to organising a supply system.

Powerul fantasy riverting end of days story
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Definitely! fantastic story, great characters, like end of days stories? then this is one of the best if not the best I have read so far and I have read a lot of them. Great value for money as the story has so much depth and duration brilliantly narrated. I want book 5-6 but it's not available yet. Next communication will be to Audible fast track it please!!
What other book might you compare After It Happened to, and why?
The Borrowed World Series, One Second After Series, What's Left of my World Series, these books are also realistic end of days books. This current book is in good company of those listed could even be my favourite, well toss up with the Borrowed World Series. This book adds so much dimension and characters can't recommend it enough. Brilliantly narrated.
What about R. C. Bray’s performance did you like?
I first heard R.C.Bray in the Mountain Man Series end of days with Zombies (Walking Dead) back drop which was a great series, I loved R.C.Bray's narration in that book (Awesome) now to this series. the first 20 minutes or so When I heard an American narration of a English character took me a while to get used to but after that Bray captured the characters so well that this distraction ceased in fact his narration matched the story brilliantly.
Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
No not so much have had other books touch me more emotionally, but hard pressed to find so much depth and characters variety, so overall enjoyment of how does this author think up such a great story.
Any additional comments?
If you enjoy end of days, apocalyptic, realistic book then can't recommend it enough, got to the end of the book 4 to find out it is available but is yet to appear on Audible. Audible please fast track it.

Hardly a page turner
A lot of trips fetching supplies but not a lot of tension or excitement. Frankly not a lot happens. Also the narrator speaks funny and pronounced a lot of words oddly.
