The Dead Horizon

Humanity Series, Book 2

De: Seth Rain

Narrado por: Jack Jacobs

Some call it the Rapture. Others call it global genocide. Whatever it was, only thousands of survivors remain on Earth.

When Scott Beck finds himself alive after the Rapture, along with only a few survivors, he retreats to the Lake District in the north of England. Soon after, he finds himself the reluctant guardian of a young woman, and on the run from Mathew, a religious megalomaniac, and his Watchers, who are as determined as ever to send every human soul to heaven.

The AI, controlled by Mathew, informs Scott of a dead horizon, past which its view of the deterministic universe vanishes, meaning it can no longer see the future.

Scott, along with what remains of humanity, having lived with the paradox of knowing his own demise, must once again embrace freedom, and take hold of the smallest offering of hope, if he and humanity are going to survive.

Rejoin Scott Beck’s fight to save humanity in book two of the Humanity Series.

It’s not the end of the world, only humanity....

Roller coaster

Scott finds himself still on earth after the rapture, after moving he finds himself in charge of a baby girl. Scott decides he must run from the mean religious guy that are dead set on send every human soul to heaven. Scott befriends a man that helps him when the baby gets very sick. Together they try to find the AI that might help them survive only to find the AI can not see that far into the future.
This was a different take on the rapture event and is very interesting. I love how it made you think about humanity and life. But having the audio narrated by Jack Jacobs it aloud my to just soak it all in, to his soothing voice. This book is one that has you reading or listening along and then bam a twist pops us. I really liked this book and can not wait to see what happens in the next.

Humanity on the edge of dying out

Received an audio copy from the author to review, this is an honest review. Narrated by Jack Jacobs, continues to bring to life Seth Rain's dystopian world with poignant depth.


Received as an ARC (2020 ), this is an honest review. Scott continues his quest to finally confront Matthew and the AI; putting the end to the the man's obsession with getting humanity back to heaven. Evading Watchers, protecting a pregnant teen mother from those who could hurt her; Scott finds the way to fight to whatever end there will be. Discovering dark secrets along the way: seeing the best and the worst of what remains of humanity. A brilliant and disturbing take on the dystopian genre. Highly recommended.

Awesome
