Absolutely Nailed It
Tolerance. It's more than just a state of mind. And Mr. Wallace nailed it. It was funny and not funny at the same time. Circular logic arguments were so well designed that I was chuckling to myself until I realized that those characters were far more real and dangerous than a cabin full of bears, which you should never feed or make wear any type of clothing. Mr. Wallace is also a master at putting together fight and chase scenes that you can feel. Read this book. Read the ones that came before it, and all that come after. And stop feeding bears. They're wild animals. Keep clear. And always remember, all that sizzles is not bacon.

Great read!
I love apocalyptic and dystopian stories but my favorites include a bit of humor. The Duck & Cover series has the best kind of humor. You know, it sneaks in and could, hypothetically, make you snort drink out of your nose, LOL. There is plenty of danger, terror and crazy, also. The male protagonist is amazing in his abilities and the story of how those abilities came to be. There is an extremely upsetting scenario at the end of book 3, so prepare yourself. I highly recommend the entire series.Read via Kindle Unlimited

Excellent!!!
I was hooked when I read his first novel in the series, and found myself having difficulty putting them down. Unfortunately I ran through them far too quickly only to leave me waiting and wanting the next installment. They are definitely full of adventure and action, and untold numbers of unexpected twists. His characters are well developed and his addition of more than a few mutants, as one might expect mutants in a post apocalyptic world, just add to the enjoyment.These works are not just a re-mash of Mad Max, but if you are a fan of Mad Max, then you will enjoy these works. I am a Mad Max fan and also really enjoyed reading them.

Now with More Apocalypse
Wallace's "Duck and Cover" series just keeps getting better and better. Pursuit of the Apocalypse ratchets Jerry's story up to a whole new level, elevating the character to the level of epic hero, a well-deserved and perfectly-timed transformation for Wallace to make in the series. Like the rest of the Duck and Cover tales, Pursuit is full of laughs and edge-of-your-seat post-apocalyptic adventure, but it also raises the stakes in terms of real danger, and Wallace seems to be reminding us that this is the post-apocalypse, and that sometimes, things get messy.I can't wait to see how the Librarian's journey continues to unfold. Wallace is writing an epic masterpiece with this series, and it's a thrill to be along for the ride!

I really enjoyed the series
I really enjoyed the series, but this book may have made not want to read any further. Yes, it's post-apocalyptic, and yes, you expect bad things to happen, but the last pages of this one may have put me over the edge as far as these are concerned. However, I loved the characters, even the bad ones, I really appreciated the descriptions of the people and places the Librarian encountered (especially Chewy!), and I know, because of this, I will probably read on.

Disappointed
I never write reviews if i can help it so here goes....(sadly this one is gonna be negative)After loving the entertaining nature of the author and this series in general, the final book just fell flat. It was going along well, dialogue was good, chase was suspenseful and well timed. He even introduced a few new characters (albeit; he put the main characters on the back burner a little too often to compesate for that) two fo which you just can't believe remember how to breathe enough to actually survive in this cruel world. Hell, I had even read some of the passages when the story moves to the town of Tolerence to friends. It kept me riveted all the way up to the end where it felt like he ran out of time and just threw a quick bow/tombstone over the final scene. It feels incomplete. I had looked forward to reading more by BW his dialogue with the reader is very much like my favorite Author C. Moore. But with a, (ok I'll say it) crappy, stunted ending I think I'll pass on purchasing anything further.

Dark, funny satire
Pursuit of the Apocalypse, book 3 of the series, gets more serious, more satirical, and funnier at the same time. There are some funny biker henchmen right out of a Hiaasen novel, some truly blood-curdling bad guys, and a town where everyone is free to do or say whatever they want, as long as it doesn't offend anyone else. Yeah, it's a satire. Warning, the ending is dark. Story 4, Craft 5, Humor 5.

It can't end here...
I loved the first 2 books of the series and every page of this one before the last couple. Won't spoil it but to say it was unexpected would be an understatement. This was such a fun series I hate to see it end especially in this manner so I hope there's a book 4.

Excellent!
Funny, witty, a good dose of absurd, sarcasm, humour and action. It never goes where you expect. I really, really enjoyed that series. Two thumbs up!

Fast paced hilarious post apocalyptic tale.
Pursuit of the Apocalypse is the third book of this series. It is another fast paced tale with plenty of of action. There is plenty of belly laughs in this book. The book has plenty of great characters and crazy places. Benjamin Wallace is the Terry Pratchett of the Post Apocalyptic genre.Well worth reading for all post apocalyptic fans.

A great link into the final chapter
Possibly the weaker of the 4 books, it's a bit all over the place, but a cracking read nontheless.I had some genuine laugh out loud moments reading about Tolerance and the satirical poke about elements of modern society plus Carrie made me cringe as I work with someone just like her! The action scenes are well written and the twist at the end leads brilliantly into book 4.As an adventure novel to pass time in an entertaining fashion the Duck and Cover books are hard to beat. Recommended
