Resumen del Editor

Five young people trapped in a skyscraper at the end of the world must learn to survive in a new era. An era where all the old rules no longer apply.

Evan Carlson finds himself responsible for four other teenagers at the top of the Palmer tower in New York City. Unable to descend into the chaos beneath them they must scavenge from their new home. But, even isolated, the evil from below still rises and must be dealt with.

Finally, when they are forced to break free they discover everything is worse than they could ever imagine.

Sydney Parker had her entire life mapped out, Harvard next year, Yale law school four years later. A girl’s dream husband along the way. But now, her world is ruined. Everything she had hoped to find had been taken and she must learn to live in this new world with death and devastation around every corner. And a young man in Evan Carlson that would try any woman’s patience.

Five young people who might be humanity’s last hope make their way across the country in search of a better place. If they don’t make it, no one will ever know nor care. And the human species might be lost forever.

Decent

The story is decent at best. It will pass some time if you are bored, but it isn’t the greatest book out there

great

Loved the book. Great read and lots of action. i will be listening to more books.

A fun listen...

This gets off to a rather calm, underwhelming start, given the situation and I’m not sure it’s plausible. Still, it’s pretty fun, so I hang in there. Just as the characters start to agree to a survival plan, and set about it, it jumps to 3 months later … it seems like lowkey lazy writing to show so little. I’m all for a bit of a time jump—I just don’t think this one was executed well. It seems like there would’ve been show-worthy drama in the first 3 months that a bunch of young people are trapped in a skyscraper during an apocalypse, no?

It did grip me though, for the entire duration of the book, so ultimately, I’d say it’s well done. It ended a bit abruptly for me, and I’d love to see some sort of follow up. But overall, I enjoyed it.

3.5 stars.


Audio—
This narrator did a good job. Smooth enough voice. He did sound a bit robotic, clearly opting for this rather than performing the book, but it was tolerable. He mispronounced a couple of words, nothing too distracting. The production quality is good. 4 stars on this front.

easy listen

this is a great series. each book tells a different story so they don't have to be read in any certain order. they are a light easy listen not over the top with violence or sex. actually, there is no sex but a kiss and imagination.
