Farley is an old prepper who is stuck in the city when a solar storm sets off an electromagnetic pulse event, taking the grid down worldwide.... Our hero stays in the city, facing societal breakdown, for 10 weeks - until it is evident he must escape and bug out somewhere. The problem is he has a only half tank of gas and no means to get any more.

Teaming with Microbes offers an alternative to this vicious circle and details how to garden in a way that strengthens, rather than destroys, the soil food web. You’ll discover that healthy soil is teeming with life - not just earthworms and insects, but a staggering multitude of bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms.

If you could sum up The Bug Out Gardening Guide in three words, what would they be?
Just get started
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Bug Out Gardening Guide?
Who knew Aspirin could be a fertilizer?
Which character – as performed by Charles Orlik – was your favorite?
It's instructional, not a story.. I guess the Narrator was my favorite.
Any additional comments?
This is a straight forward book on gardening in stressful situations. It's written to be easily understood. Charles Orlik has a great voice, he doesn't irritate or drone while narrating.

Decent book, bad narration
The content wasn't bad, although in hindsight perhaps it would be better as an actual book since it includes some recipes, etc. Hands down this is the worst recording of a book I've ever listened to. The narrator has the annoying creaky voice of some folksy secondary character from "Northern Exposure" and the cadence of a confident seventh grader reading "The Outsiders" into a microphone for the first time. Definitely mispronounced "contemplate" and "chosen" and I'm pretty sure I picked a few places where he read the same line twice.

Lots of info!
What made the experience of listening to The Bug Out Gardening Guide the most enjoyable?
There was lots of useful information on gardening in general. Most things can be used now, in addition to a SHTF scenario.
What about Charles Orlik’s performance did you like?
His voice was clear and read in a way that you could hear the difference sections for different topics.
What’s an idea from the book that you will remember?
It has a mock Miracle Grow recipe that I'm going to try this year.
Any additional comments?
I will be purchasing a physical copy of this book because it includes recipes and notes that would be nice to see just so nothing is forgotten.

Couldn't follow the story line.
I seldom leave poor reviews but feel like I wish I had checked out the narrator's reviews first... I could NOT follow the story line at all. I caught just enough to know I will likely buy the actual book and read it myself but the way it was read just completely ruined it for me. No punctuation, no conversational tone where there should have been and completely flat (think a high tone robot). I can't finish it and really wish I could have my money back!
