Wandering Highway

A Desperate Journey Home

A young married couple, with a five year old daughter and a baby boy on the way, set out on a shopping trip to an out of town mall. Just as they reach the mall an EMP blast knocks out every electronic device in sight including every cell phone, automobile, and every plane flying in the sky. Their only choice to reunite with their family is to embark on a long and desperate walk home. As the hordes of refugees pour out onto the highways, some seek to merely survive while others seek to profit amidst the chaos. Out there on the road, they face challenges and obstacles that they could never have imagined as they witness the collapse of society happening all around them.

Wandering Highway

Found this story very enjoyable. Not your typical end of world story, it seemed more normal of what would happen if your caught off guard far from home. Alan was a typical family man that wasn't a hero type of character except to his family. The experiences he and his pregnant wife had were somewhat mild compared to other stories of its kind, but who are we to say what experiences that would be like. The story was short as it took the day for me to listen to it. Years ago I read this story on my Kindle and I wanted to revisit it on audible read to me. My only disappointment is the author didn't continue the story after the first book after all these years. I do hope in the future he will continue this book.
