Resumen del Editor

Small town reporter Mia Durante finds herself having brunch with the President of the United States on the day civilization comes to an end.

An electromagnetic pulse blinds the U.S. Cars crash. Planes fall. Chaos reigns. Power is restored within minutes, but it’s already too late. Russian nukes are falling. U.S. allies around the world are already wiped out. The United States will cease to exist inside of five minutes.

After giving the order to launch a full-scale retaliation–dooming the planet–the president, his staff, Secret Service and those lucky enough to be visiting the White House, are whisked below ground, where they board several Earth Escape Pods. As the EEPs launch into Earth orbit, missiles descend.

Less than forty survive the end of the world. When they return, they’re greeted by survivors of a different sort. The bloodbath that follows leaves Durante and nine other survivors on the run. They find themselves fighting for survival in a world in which only torment remains and where death is the only escape.

Torment is award-winning author Jeremy Robinson’s first pulse-pounding horror novel (originally penned under his Jeremy Bishop pseudonym). It's a horrific tale of post-apocalyptic terror that is one part zombie story and one part Dante’s Inferno. The story asks hard questions and generates strong emotions in everyone who listens to it—anger, excitement, and most of all: fear. This book asks the question that everyone is afraid to answer: are you ready?

Wow!!!

This is my new favorite Robinson book, and that’s a very bold statement about my absolutely favorite author. I love being challenged, and JR always delivers. The way his writing leaps from a jumping off point and takes my imagination on a suspenseful, can’t-stop-listening, thought-provoking journey is unparalleled. I just finished listening, and I need to restart immediately and probably several times over. Robinson takes familiar concepts and beliefs and rearranges them in his stories so artfully, he forces you to re-examine what you know.

RC Bray is an amazing narrator! If his voice were a person, it’d be Cary Grant. Smooth, classic, and so talented. It’s always a joy to listen.

Origanal

Jeremy Robinson doesn't own a cookie cutter. This guy's work is always original and never what you expect. If you want something new and different he will always provided it. I may not always like every thing about his books but I will say it's not the same old thing over and over and over again!

awesome ride

starts off slow in the beginning but begins to pick up pace like a roller coaster, definitely one of my favorite books

Never got hooked

The story never hooked me. I was always hoping I would get to a part of the story where I would care about the characters, but I never did.

I'm disappointed with the purchase. 😔

I feel Tormented

What a wild ride. I guessed the end, but changed my mind with all the twists. this book was frustrating for me because there's no relief.
I recommend this book to anyone else willing to torment themselves.

bad taste

it was a good story, but it left a bad taste in my mouth, it is like eating taco bell at first it sounds good, but an hour later you are burping up something that didn't taste well. probably wont relisten to this one.

That ending…

I thought I knew where it was going. I was wrong. Well done, Mr. Robinson.

I dislike horror but this was a good story.

It's extremely similar to Paradise Lost, Dante's inferno etc. At least what I remember from middle school. Definitely makes you question yourself...

I'm not quite sure how it fits in the Infinite Timeline series but perhaps I'll find out later.

Wasn't what I expected

I enjoy a good horror novel. This was a very creative premise, but left me hanging hoping there would be a discovery of the cause of the condition of the people. I guess it will have to be discovered in the sequel!

Fantastic!

I’ve been a Fan of Jeremy Robinson’s books for about a year now. I’ve slowly made my way through the infinite timeline, after finding out there was one. I’ve never listened to this one before but wow! What a story. This instantly became my 2nd favorite JR book. It’s very close behind the Dark. I’ve never hear a zombie story quite like this one. So different and unique. It was intense and terrifying sometimes. The first hour or two of this book was thrilling and the ending was great. It gave me the same vibes as the ending of The Mist movie. Great work! Can’t wait for the last 2 books in the infinite world!
