About this listen
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. The communicability and mortality rates are devastating, leaving only small pockets of survivors scattered throughout the countryside.
Commune: Book One is the story of one small group of survivors who must adapt to a primitive, hostile world or die. As they learn the rules of this new era, they must decide how far they're willing to go to continue living, continually asking themselves the same question daily: is survival worth the loss of humanity?

Wow!
This series came highly recommended, and it did not disappoint! The author has done a fantastic job at developing characters and RC Bray is amazing at bringing them to life. Excellent entry into the series.

Brilliant
Oh man I loved this book.
Post apocalyptic survival without any zombies. Characters were deep and relatable. Couldn't put it down!
I'll be diving into the rest of this series soon!

Good for what it is.
Ok so this is a genre I’m extremely sick of and seem to keep stumbling into - American-centric content, set in apocalyptic shit hole they’ve made of the future - revolves around good ol macho American values of militaristic stupidity, ‘the marines’, guns, bombs, killing people, ‘good guys’ vs ‘bad guys’, and the occasional sprinkle of two dimensional ‘feelings’ for character development.
Having said that- it’s well written and a couple steps above most of the dreck in this field. TC Bray’s narration is top notch. The author spends a lot of time reciting factoids apparently gleaned from American survivalist manuals- which gets pretty old, but overall definitely worth a listen even if you’re as jaded as I am, and if this Stars and Stripes Rambo stuff is your cup of tea you’ll totally love it.

Just another story about the "after catastrophe"
It's ordinary. Somethings do not make sense, why were they not hunting, fishing, etc. I much prefer "Gray" as aa "after catastrophe" story. However, if you like guns, you will enjoy the detail descriptions of many types of fire arms.

Highly Recommend
A great read narrated by a great narrator.
I need to listen to the whole thing again because apparently there is something about our mystery man Jake's past in the book. I have a theory but I can't share potential spoilers!
The re-listen begins.....

Great story and narration
I've been listening to a lot of these post apocalyptic books and so far these are my new favorite. R C Bray does another outstanding performance as always

Always bring lots of guns to the Apocalypse
I have to agree with other reviewers here, that there is way too much story on guns here. That being said though even a not-gun nut like me listened to this story with interest. I liked that people and I could relate to Amanda. R.C. Bray did a great job even with the lady voices and paced the story well. great listen

Excellent Characters and story
4 stars for story being predictable. Narration outstanding as usual from R.C. Bray. I was enthralled throughout and excited for book 2. Starting book 2.

Terrific Story
I truly enjoyed this story. The mix of people was great...representing a broad spectrum of humanity. I really enjoyed the narrator. I particularly enjoyed the "First Nation" voice of Bill. He sounded just like Graham Green, the Canadian First Nation Actor (who is one of my favorite actors). I could just see Graham Green in the part, even though he would be smaller in stature than the fellow in the book. I was sorry to see him die. However, I will carry on with the series because the story is really good too.
