About this listen
It’s the end of the world as you've never known it.
Join the Librarian as he does his best to make the post-apocalyptic world a better place by protecting the weak, fighting injustice, squaring off against a group of former renaissance fair workers who have established a kingdom in the Rocky Mountains, and so on. Can one man make a difference in the face of such murderous cannibals and super smart bears? Probably not.
The Boom Box includes:
Post-Apocalyptic Nomadic Warriors (Book 1)
An army of savage raiders have their sights set on the peaceful town of New Hope and the people are going to need help. When two nomads offer their assistance, one is hired and the other is sent back into the wasteland. Did they choose the right man for the job?
Knights of the Apocalypse (Book 2)
A price on their heads has driven the Librarian, Erica, and their loyal mastiff west in search of a new beginning. But when their truck breaks down in what was once southern Colorado they are swept into an epic quest at the behest of King Elias, ruler of the Kingdom of the Five Peaks and former turkey leg magnate.
Pursuit of the Apocalypse (Book 3)
A bounty hunter has kidnapped Erica and the Librarian and his dog, Chewy, are desperate to get her back. The chase will take them from the deserts of west Texas to the town of Tolerance and beyond. Be a part of the greatest chase the apocalypse has ever known.
It’s post-apocalyptic mayhem of the highest order in the series listeners are calling Mad Max meets Monty Python.

a funny, sarcastic look at the End Times
A great series, funny and irreverent, with believably insane characters (imagine if Jeff from accounting went feral, or your dentist decides to lead a biker gang). Very entertaining, can't wait to get Wallace's other works!

Action packed Adventures
Mostly mildly amusing but I find stupidity annoying at times. Some very funny bits (especially the flag fight). Disappointed by ending.

Fast-paced and inventive fun
I really enjoyed this book, and thought Phil Thron read it very well (dead-pan). It was funny but also clever, with just the right amount of romance and gore thrown-in. Well worth a credit for three books in one.

Gets better the more you listen
I was not sure in the first 20 minutes but after that I finished all 3 books in no time. Has some comedy moments and is on the lighter side of post apocalyptic mayhem

It's worth a credit, but doesn't meet the hype
This is an ok post apocalyptic adventure series.
I bought it because it was heavily advertised as being hysterically funny - the new big thing in comedy writing. It isn't. There are a few laughs along the way - but nowhere near enough to allocate it into a comedy genre.
Construction-wise, it's a mess. The world-building is sloppy, without any apparent rules, and sometimes just a bit silly. Any gimmick the author thinks of just gets thrown in because "why not". He gets away with it. Just.
By the end of book 3, I was a bit bored and was about ready to give up with the series, but he just managed to pique my interest enough at the end to get book 4.
I am glad he did. Book 4 is on another level. He settles down and concentrates on storyline and characters and it works. Book 4, I properly enjoyed.
