As & When

Book 2 of The E Apocrypha

De: Alex Andre

Narrado por: Kristiana Rice

They’ve messed with the wrong woman. Aileen’s got a city to run—its shady part, in any case. Abducted and whisked away from Locksville, she refuses to be a pawn in powerful players’ games. She most definitely is not a damsel in distress and needs no freakin knights in shining armor to come to her rescue. Alas, her best-laid escape plans misfire, landing her in even hotter waters far away from home. Aileen must find her footing in an unfamiliar, unforgiving society, fighting tooth and nail to survive.

Bo, Aileen’s sharp and grumpy advisor, would move mountains to find her, his limp and aversion to violence be damned to the Seven Hells! He wouldn’t trust anyone else with the impossible search for the most important person in his life.

Ajinder, executive protection specialist, won’t tolerate his principal being taken—by someone other than himself. He is no stranger to dispensing violence and doesn’t shy away from being on its receiving end. With his motivation stretching beyond pure professionalism, woe to those who question his skills and determination.

Will their grit, smarts, ruthless single-mindedness, and game-changing technology be enough to find Aileen before it’s too late?

As & When is Book 2 of The E Apocrypha.

Meet familiar faces from Lost & Found. Return to Locksville, New Kowloon, The Station, as well as discover new corners of the world that had lost all technology.

Content warnings: occasional coarse language, non-gratuitous violence, mild (implied) sensual descriptions.

Great book, loved it so much. This book is amazing. The narrator does a great job with this book. Definitely would recommend this book. You will definitely enjoy this listen.

Fantastic

This is a fantastic listen, there are lots of twists and turns, and had me on the edge of my seat, I highly recommend this excellent listen, I am Shauna Joesten me and my husband share this account, his name is Richard Joesten, I highly recommend this listen Thank you

good

This is book two. I read both book but with space in between. I think I enjoyed this book better. They where older. This book is more intense with more action in my opinion.

The 2nd book is as good as the 1st book

Some new characters come into this book. After a bit of time they all make sense. There books are well worth a listen to.

Love it

Alex Andre might have out done himself I think the second book is better than the first not to say the first book wasn’t fantastic. Kristiana Rice did a great job again bringing the world of the series to life. She did a better job on the voices this time. The characters might be older, but they get into as much trouble as they did when they were younger, and there are many new characters to learn about. In this book you get to go to different locations. This story is intense, has a lot more twist and turns like in the first book. It has romance, adventure, high action, and interesting developments. The military is still an aspect of the story, is very well done. On top of being a post-apocalyptic World there is kidnapping in this story. The story might trigger some people. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.would highly recommend

As & When Book 2 of The E Apocrypha

I really enjoyed Book 2 of the E Apocrypha! I found it to be a quick read and refreshingly different instead of just being more of the (perfectly good) same.

With the introduction of new characters (expanding the universe of the book series dramatically), and the ability to jump right into a fresh storyline mid-series without having to know everything about the first book; whether you’ve read and enjoyed Lost and Found or not, the author introduces us to another facet of Locksville and the changing attitudes and survival strategies of the people living there.

It tells a personal story that takes place in a now familiar setting, that nevertheless can still surprise the reader. The plot is original and fully self-contained, woven into the series' post-apocalyptic world: it's not just another never-ending series where books are without beginning or a pronounced end.

The main protagonists Aileen (refuses to fall prey to her kidnappers) takes you along on an adventurous journey through relatable saga full of plot twists and engaging developments, recognizable geo places, interesting plot twists to the story. Meanwhile, her advisor Bo and protection specialist Ajinder set about a ruthless rescue mission in a dystopian world where the right technology is rare enough to command a dangerous price.

Better than the first book

After listening to the first book, I wasn't sure if the story would continue with the same characters. I was pleasantly surprised by the new cast. You don't need to have read (or in my case, listened to) the first book to understand this one, but having done so helped me see the bigger picture, which was exciting. This book mainly focuses on three characters and is set in New York, a place I'm very familiar with. Like the first book, each character is easily identifiable and relatable and the narrator does an excellent job giving each character its own voice. I appreciated that this book didn't switch between different POVs as often as the first book did, possibly because there are fewer characters to follow. It's a great standalone book set in a beautifully crafted world, and I'm excited to meet more characters in future books.

A punchy and fierce sequel!

“As & When” by Alex Andre brings sharp writing and a whirlwind of action that keeps you hooked from start to finish. Kristiana Rice’s narration is on point, capturing every bit of Aileen’s fire as she proves she’s “not a damsel in distress” while navigating danger in unfamiliar territory. A punchy and fierce sequel, with unforgettable characters and top-tier storytelling!

your next read

Another great book by this author with a strong female character as well as a character with a disability. It's so exciting to see how the story grows from the first book and you get to meet new characters. I love when you read a book and there is a strong female character who can take care of herself and isn't pigeonholed into the role that woman characters usually are. This author really makes you feel what he is writing the characters and the world
