Don't Call Me Ishmael

The Fallen World, Book 2

By: Chris Kennedy

Narrated by: Mark Boyett

Don’t call him Ishmael. Or do; he really doesn’t care. Just don’t call him Fred.

No matter what you call him, though, he has a problem. Well, several of them. Ishmael—for want of a better name—woke up in a world that had changed. The Corporations—the wielders of power in a society not long from now—brought about the end of civilization as we know it, nuking each other to the point where it collapsed.

Ishmael doesn’t know any of this, though; in fact, he doesn’t know anything about himself when he wakes up in this shattered world. All of his autobiographical and episodic memories are gone, and along with them, any knowledge of who he was or anything in his past.

Worse, he has made enemies of some very important people, and they are after him. They are armed and he is alone and in...well, he doesn’t know where he is, either.

Can Ishmael stay alive long enough to recover his memories—to find out who he is and how he fits—or will he be just another casualty of This Fallen World?

Good story

Enjoyed the book but really struggled with (like the first book) every chapter ends with "this fallen world", its like a teeth cringing one-liner every chapter!

great book

I recconend it. Chris Kennedy did a good job in this fallen world.

Ishmael wakes up in Slidell. he doesn't know who he is but has a certain skill set. but he really doesn't know how to use it. this is the story of him trying to regain his memory and his real name

better than all expectations

had me laughing and totally engrossed, couldn't put it down. lost sleep because of this book.

Ties In First Books Advanced Story

This book isn’t as good as the first in the series. With that being said I still very much enjoyed it. It takes the third section from The Fallen World and ties different people into the story after the fall. We do lose Matthew Cade and his story line which I would like to be revisited. We learn new characters and see how they adapt to this fallen world.

Really like the narrator

I get the fact it's a fallen world, so I don't need a reminder every chapter. but still a fun thing to listen to. this same narrator has narrated other books but seems to disappear into his characters.
