Chaos

A New World, Book 1

De: John O'Brien

Narrado por: Mark Gagliardi

There is no sanctuary.

That was taken away in the blink of an eye. Humanity went out not with a whimper, but a bang.

Jack, a sometimes humorous, sometimes philosophical ex-special operations pilot and soldier is one of the few left to struggle through the desolation left in the aftermath; seeking to survive as a new ferocious species emerges from the rubble, hungry and unrelenting. Will his special forces training be enough? Will he be able to keep his children safe and guide the few survivors through perils that now roam the world they once knew? Or will the hordes that now own the night prevail, forever removing the last of mankind from existence? Humankind was once at the top of the food chain. But that has now changed.

This hard-hitting, action-packed series begins with Jack Walker being suddenly thrust into a world where the infrastructure which cherished Armani suits, night clubs, fast and expensive cars and watching the daily stock market are gone. Left in its place is the material world mankind built but a majority of the population has vanished; replaced by a new, savage, unrelenting, cunning, animalistic species which hunts and operates at night.

Better than the books

After reading the book series and knowing how it ends, I decided to go Audio and it’s been well worth it.

Definitely AF AF

You can tell the author actually knows military…not just tacti-cool. Looking forward to the rest of the series!

Like the Jack character

I was hoping this was a continuation or integration of the Red Team with the vampire story arch. Was no mention of this so I am guessing it’s just a zombie storyline.

Pretty Great!

I first discovered John via Mark Tufo books. Each world mixes together at some point, and I wanted to listen to more of the other half. This first book did NOT disappoint. Do I miss Sean Runette as a narrator? Yes. Am I’m super upset with Mark? Nope. He kindof sounds like the main army man from the movie Toy Soldiers, so it was a little hard to get into. But honestly, the writing was more than good enough to overcome the initial discomfort of listening to something different for a change. On to the next! :)

came from a shrouded world

Was introduced to the character of Jake Walker in A Shrouded World. this story is solid, the characters well fleshed out, the monsters are a good variant of zombie/mutants.

the narrator is ok....I think.... he's just different from Sean Runnette so I'm a little biased from hours and hours of a different narrator portraying the same character.
