Publisher's summary

Jack Winters is in a bit of a pickle. Things started out just fine. He had a decent job and a few friends. Then he met the woman of his dreams. They go out on a date and things go really well. That’s when things go south. The morning after turns out to be a week later and the world went ahead and ended itself while Jack was far away in dreamland. Now he’s awake in a post-apocalyptic world with no family, no job, and worst of all, no girlfriend. Along with his friends and some other random tag-alongs, Jack will journey cross-country to find the woman of his dreams against zombies, heavy metal horsemen, pirates, and a power so immense and evil it will put his very soul to the test.

Book or simply extensive outline?

Apocalyptic tales are right in my lane. But. Per my headline, what was this? There were many times during the book when I said ... "Huh? Hey... wait..."

What I mean is that the author set up some situations and then... moved on. Suddenly, our characters are on the next leg of their journey, previous cliffhanger simply not mentioned again. Which is why I headlined as I did. This read to me like the third expanded draft of the author's outline for a novel to be called "Apocalypse Wow." But, for whatever reason, he got bored and decided to simply publish the outline and not finish filling it in.

One conceit of the novel concerned the nature of reality. But how that relates to my above comment is about impossible to describe without hitting major spoilers. But even in this case, it was all so very incomplete.

The narrator was good, but hampered by the material.

A bit of a strange tale.

Apocalypse Wow. .
This is one strange tale, the apocalypse, angels, demons, and unwitting heroes.
Put your feet up and suspend reality with this funny and irreverent tale.
Ok the plot meanders quite a bit but it is entertaining. and I didn't want to put it down.
Narration is excellent and compliments the book. Clear and concise.
I received a free copy of this audio book at my own request and voluntarily leave this honest review. .

Fun Book and Story

This was a fun book. I didn't know it had a sequel when I started reading. I now am looking forward to continuing the story and seeing where it goes next. I enjoyed it.
