An honest and raw depiction of life as an EMT, as well as of life itself.

I liked how the book was both personal and informative. I came for the call stories, but was reeled in by the personal anecdotes.

I enjoyed the narrator as well.

A very good listen!

Disturbing, depressing and uplifting, all at the same time.

Revisado: 03-27-24

I was browsing for a new listen and didn't quite know what I was in the mood for, only that it needed to be some kind of non-fiction. This brought me to the Best Seller section, where the book "The Real Anthony Fauci" was near the top.

Reading the reviews of that book made me lose all hope in humanity, and I felt a desperate need for reassurance that there are still people on this earth that has not lost their minds.

This book did it. The author does a great job of remaining non-political while investigating what led us to the current circumstances.

The only drawback was some repetetiveness, but as a whole I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

Interesting!

I enjoy these type of stories, where a person describes their experiences in a high-stress occupation. I enjoyed the introspective parts as well.

Warm and heartfelt

I enjoyed this book very much.
The narration was perfect.

The story was engaging and interesting. And the personal stories gave insight into the minds and lives of the rescuer and sometimes the rescuee.

I highly recommend it!

Excellent!

I absolutely loved this book! Not ONE dull moment. I never wanted it to end.

The author did such a fine job in relaying the thoughts, feelings and emotional state of every person involved that I really felt like I was there, observing everything while it transpired.

On one hand, this is a brutal tale of man against nature. But it's also a moving glimpse into the lives of a few men, who experience friendship, heartaches and fierce of determination.

I would highly recommend this book.

Jumps right into the action

Revisado: 08-18-22

I bought this audiobook because it is narrated by Kevin Pierce.

There is hardly a true crime book available on Audible with Kevin Pierce as the narrator that I haven't listened to. Most of them more than once.

This book's author is new to me, so I didn't know what to expect. I enjoyed the book. I used my credit card to pay for it, instead of a credit, because it is much shorter than my standard credit purchases.

That being said, I think that the book ideally could have been quite a bit longer, because each story jumped right into the action with hardly any intro, if any at all. It's probably part of this author's style, and it's fine, but I like to get to know the characters a little bit before everything happens all at once.

But as it is, I do think my money was well spent!

Charming, funny and very, very interesting!

I loved it. I was afraid that the standard set by The Martian was so high that I would be disappointed, but no. I had a blast with this one too!

I enjoyed it!

This book was equally scary and funny, and I enjoyed it a lot.

Sometimes I find a real gem among the books included in my membership, and this was one of those times.

Dark and entertaining

Revisado: 06-03-21

I was browsing through Audible, not sure what I wanted to listen to next. Bought two different audiobooks, and started to listen to both, but they didn't match my mood.

Then I remembered that the originals are free, so I read the descriptions of a few before I decided on Panic. It turned out to be a great listen!

I like American high school dramas for some reason. And the darker, the better. This was right up my alley.

The stories totally make up for the bad editing

Revisado: 04-12-21

I loved this collection (which I understand is the second) so much, I will immediately purchase the first one!

Be warned: There is no pause between stories AT ALL! The title of a story often sounds like the last word in the sentence being spoken.

You will not have much problems dealing with the poor editing if you always pay close attention whilst listening. If you drift off for a second though, you will be well into the next story without knowing the last one even ended.

Even though I felt like the editing left much to be desired, I felt like the stories made up for it, and then some.

All in all, I enjoyed this book immensely!
