I read this one first!

I remember it so distinctly...I've lived in Florida my whole life, only 2-3 hours from the 'Rat Trap' and actually read this on the way to EPCOT! Wow, talk about creepy.

These are so much fun, even with the overall dismal thematics of the series. I'm thinking I may have to start them up again, as I that they go on ad infinitum!

An average apocalyptic adventure story. This one takes a century after the last war and now there are mutants running around the earth. Recommended

I liked how this one started out, but then it went in a different direction than expected. It still more or less follows the formula, but they are different enough to be interesting. They are just quick stories to listen to like an action TV show. Dean is a new character. He's Ryan's son and can be pretty annoying at times, as any 10 year old can be.

Charles Manson in the apocalypse. I can dig it.

To Florida, where a tech genius runs an amusement park. Ryan and JB recognize him and are wary. but it's the crazy little cult leader who's the real danger. His games are deadly.

The "don't call me kid" thing didn't work. You are a kid.. zip it. Thought the Ryan/Dean relationship was way to forced. Seemed odd calling him dad after only just meeting him but referring to his mother by her name. Maybe it's just me but I wasn't a fan. Oh well, on to Chill Factor.
