Resumen del Editor
He could live forever. But is he willing to pay the price?
It's 2099, and the former United States of America is in the midst of another civil war. In the wake of a revolutionary technology that grants people a second chance at life, an impenetrable wall divides the prosperous nation of Zion from the slums of MiddleLand. Stuck inside the wall and desperate to reunite with his fiancée, contraband smuggler Asher is hell-bent on finding a way out.
When his uncle offers him a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Asher is faced with an impossible task: impersonate a talented Zion soldier and risk his life in the Canonization, a brutal gladiator duel against a champion who never loses. But defeating an unbeatable opponent and reuniting with his one true love is only the beginning. Asher thought the second life policy was outlawed. But the truth is far more sinister, and he soon finds himself caught up in the middle of a terrifying rebellion that will decide the fate of both sides of the Wall.
As an explosive and futuristic sci-fi adventure that artfully weaves together high-octane action and heart-stopping romance, The Wall presents an unforgettable YA dystopia that's perfect for fans of Divergent, The Hunger Games, and Dune.

Historia
Ravaged by the Change, an island nation in a time very like our own has built the Wall - an enormous concrete barrier around its entire coastline. Joseph Kavanagh, a new Defender, has one task: to protect his section of the Wall from the Others, the desperate souls who are trapped amid the rising seas outside and are a constant threat. Failure will result in death or a fate perhaps worse: being put to sea and made an Other himself.

The end of the world? That’s the stuff of Hollywood blockbusters and deep philosophical exercises in school. No need to sweat it. So when 16-year-old Tess’ doomsday-dad builds a bomb shelter in their suburban backyard, everyone thinks he’s gone crazy—until fire rains down from the sky, sinking whole cities into colossal craters and setting much of the world ablaze.

Historia
Nica would do anything to avoid the hassles of her sister’s bonding ceremony—the wrap fittings, hairstyles, and braided fire coral—but she never imagined that the waters covering her planet would be broken. As the heavens rained fire and stone, mountains erupted from the sea and dry ground was birthed on the Deep, dividing the water—and the Olomi people—for the first time in their history.

When a killer comet hurtles toward Earth, 18-year-old Joanna Murphy is selected to wait out the apocalypse in an underground bunker. She enters cryosleep with her close-knit team, preparing to resettle the planet after the atmosphere clears in 200 years. Joanna is the only one who wakes up. Faced with a bunker full of bones and a blocked exit, Joanna must claw her way to the surface, figure out what happened to her team, and try not to panic - or die. That’s going to be tricky if she’s the only person left in the world.

Historia
In a moment of weakness I sent out a cry for help—one that was answered by my estranged brother’s right-hand man. A murderer. A butcher. He storms into my life with his expensive suit pockets full of sedatives and cable ties in case I don’t approve of his form of protection. Let me assure you, I don’t. But when my world falls apart and I have nowhere else to go, I’m forced to escape with him.

A great listen for a roadtrip with your teens!
This audiobook held our attention for hours on end. Great narration by Luke Welland he really acted out all the emotion and intensity while telling the story wonderfully! Brian Penn did a nice job of creating this vivid world, a dark future, a desolate and divided America filled with rough-looking, hopeful characters you could picture. Would make for a great movie someday, and we're already looking forward to the sequel!

I can’t wait for the next book!
There were so many twists and turns! And the ending was far from what I expected. It’s so hard to find books that give that much excitement but without all the sex and crude language you find in so many of today’s books. I am very excited to see what the author has in store for his next book.

A Captivating Dystopian Tale
4.25 out of 5 stars
The Wall is a captivating dystopian tale that pulls you in from the start. Penn wastes no time with excessive backstory, immersing you in the here and now which shocked me. I wasn’t sure what to think at the start but I guess all you needed to know about was The Wall, one side “has it all” and one side was the dumping grounds. Everything else can be picked up as it goes.
The concept of The Wall felt familiar to me but I couldn’t quite place it. As the story progressed, I realized it had a combination of The Hunger Games and 1984, two classics. And where it branches out was an interesting idea that brought to mind the movie The Island, one of my favorites – so it’s in incredibly good company in my eyes.
Welland’s narration is a standout, striking the perfect balance between performance and storytelling. His ability to convey emotions adds a layer of depth to the characters and the plot, keeping me hooked from start to finish.
One aspect that may divide listeners is the increasing focus on religion (specifically God, The Bible, and prayer) as the story unfolds. To each their own here – but I started to get that “okay this is a bit much” feel for me. I don’t want to take away from the author, character, or readers’ beliefs – so I want to make sure and say that this could be just a “me issue” – so don’t base my review on that alone. I did not take away or add any stars because of this.
Overall, The Wall is a gripping listen that will leave you thinking long after the final chapter. Which is great because this is apparently the first book in a trilogy!? I didn’t realize that going into it and it has a full arc to it (kudos for no cliffhanger). I have an idea of where the series will go and I’m intrigued to see if I’m right.
Penn’s storytelling, coupled with Welland’s narration, makes this audiobook a standout in the dystopian genre.
