Publisher's Summary

What's worse than Australian wildlife? Mutated Australian wildlife.

Audiobook has been updated with all-new male narrator and voices!

The System Apocalypse has come to Australia, altering native organisms and importing even more menacing creatures to the most dangerous continent on Earth. For Kira Kent, plant biologist, the System arrives while she's pulling an all-nighter at work with her pair of kids in tow.

Now, instead of mundane parental concerns like childcare and paying the bills, she's got to figure out how to survive a world where already-deadly flora and fauna have grown even more perilous - all while dealing with the minutiae of the System’s pesky blue screens and Levels and somehow putting together a community of survivors to forge a safe zone to shelter her son and daughter.

It almost makes her miss the PTA fundraising sales. Almost.

Town Under is the first book in a new series, The System Apocalypse: Australia. It's set in the same universe as Tao Wong's The System Apocalypse and starts in the same time period as Life in the North, but focuses on the changes on the deadliest of continents, Australia. Fans of the original series, LitRPG, fantasy, science fiction, and post-apocalyptic novels will want to take a look.

Audio narration adjusted on 2022/01/29.

Good story, solid entry to the system apocalypse

If I could give a split rating for the narrators it would be a 5 for Parsneau and a 2 for McGee. The male parts were pretty hard to understand, I liked both but it was difficult to parse the male voice.

The story was fun and I like the established universe. I would have liked the MC to either pick her perks right away or just stop talking About it constantly. Pick a lane. Solid book overall and definitely one for system apocalypse fans in general.

My poor ears.

Since I cannot listen further to Town Under, I gave it an overall rating of 'it's okay'. Maybe it's better, maybe it's worse but I'll never know since I had to stop listening. If I didn't, my ears would explode. The narration is just that awful. I feel bad for authors when the audio version of their books ruins what may be a well-written storyline. It really is a shame.

distracted storytelling

I liked the idea and concept. but the mc goes on many thought tangents. it's a bit strange. she's book smart. not street smart. her gamer knowledge fluxes. if your ok with tangents in action and all the time. you will like this more then I did. The voice acting is great. some might call the tangents introspection but it still happens allot. it's ridiculous.
