A supervolcanic eruption in Yellowstone Park sends lava and mud flowing toward populated areas, and clouds of ash drifting across the country. The fallout destroys crops and livestock, clogs machinery, and makes cities uninhabitable. Those who survive find themselves caught in an apocalyptic catastrophe in which humanity has no choice but to rise from the ashes and recreate the world.

The reading was good, but the story was very slow in the beginning and towards the end as well. Would have thought more details on the eruption itself, based on the amount of time it went into details of each character. Story wasn't anything grand either. Probably wouldn't recommend this one to others.

okay Story performed well

This is really the story of a handful of people while they experience the onset and consequences of the volcano eruption. Typically, I would love the character development as it's a mile away from the "fight scene - dialogue - fight scene" standard trope of the typical apocalyptic fiction tale. However, this time, I actually found myself hitting the forward button repeatedly because it was dragging. He writes extremely well, especially within this particular genre but it feels like it needed some paring down.

Jim Frangione is wonderful. The narration was perfect.

Almost too much character development

This series stands out among the nearly 300 audiobooks I have enjoyed. The books are well-written, engaging, interesting, and compelling, and the characters have qualities that bind them to you. As the story unfolds you can't help but love most of the characters in a way that you feel yourself, or someone you know, in each of them. The ride that is this story isn't too slow, or too fast but keeps a nice pace with enough unforeseen twists to keep you wanting to listen more. I highly recommend this series and I know I will return in the future to listen again, it was that good.

You won't be disappointed, what a ride of a story.

Until I discovered this book was part of a series, my initial rating would have been much lower.

The story was so disjointed; The family that Is no more. Scenes jumping from character to character left me frustrated and unsatisfied. The hardest thing for me was that I really dislike all the characters except Collin and Kelly.

The story ends abruptly with no real resolution. Now that I know this is the first book in a trilogy, I think the things that bothered me will come together and make sense eventually. I will try book 2.

Say Goodbye to Yellowstone

The story is realistic and entertaining, but also a glimpse of the world we hope to never know. The narration is excellent! Perfect way to pass the time in my bus.

Believable story

To be fair, most reviewers have not liked this book much. I did. Turtledove's metier is character development, involving relatively ordinary (and not always even likeable) people trying to live ordinary lives against the background of bizarre events. The events themselves are rarely viewed in broad. Instead, we get short glimpses from many angles, reflected from shards of a fragmented mirror, as these events affect individual lives. In Supervolcano, Turtledove returns to this technique in a setting where, in its initial stages, humans are essentially powerless to do anything other than try to cling onto the remnants of normal life. Obviously, this isn't going to work, any more than it did in Niven/Pournelle's Lucifer's Hammer or Stirling's Dies the Light. But unlike the last named books, Supervolcano shows society crumbling in slow motion -- a great setting for Turtledove's brand of character novel.

I doubt this series will be as good as Turtledove's enormous set of CSA stories. Frankly, nothing else ever will be, from Turtledove or from anyone else. But this is a very promising start.

The Real Turtledove is Back

story line was weak, the description of what a volcano is was poor mostly just about personal adventures during an eruption that left much to be desired in completion of what was and finally happened to all of the main charracters esplecialy the killer that the cops was looking that was a real let down no ending no real investigation but I listened to it to the end and as a book that I could have done without it wasn't as bad as some that I've listened thru

Kind of a dull suspense book

This is a pretty good audiobook on the performance side. But there is no way Turtledove actually wrote this. This appears to to have been written by an inferior author using the Turtledove name.

Good performance. Poorly written

Never Nada

What do you think the narrator could have done better?

More energy, but reading this would be a challenge for any narrator...even Frank Muller in his prime.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Anything negative you can think of

Any additional comments?

Really, really bad book.

Not credit worthy, read worthy, or just worthy.

I enjoy reading books about catastrophic events. This particular story was less about a Supervolcano and more about the breakup of a marriage, the miscreant kids of two screwed up parents, an affair and finally a middle-aged unwed idiot character’s pregnancy. Didn’t finish. I tried twice, but just couldn’t do it. Really dumb book!
