Publisher's summary

Matty Williams’ retirement as a computer tech goes awry when he and his girlfriend Divvie discover that new social technologies are subtly affecting the minds of their users. As they delve deeper into the technological marvels, revolutionizing the lives of virtually everyone on the planet, they are set on a course that leads directly back to their employer Roydon Technologies.

Now, there’s the latest gadget, augmented reality glasses known as “Augies", that can literally recreate reality for the user, all controlled by the ruthlessly efficient global computer system with the deceptively reassuring name of NANA.

Will Matty, Divvie, and their super-geeky friend Howard save humanity from a life of programmed subservience, or will their attempt to thwart NANA result in something even worse?

"The story built the level of intrigue and tension nicely, increasing its hold over the reader by fully immersing them in a future world. The technology introduced was believable and shocking, disturbingly charged with both wonder and terror. I would recommend this book to anyone." (Steven Robson for Readers’ Favorite)

Scary good, no scary FABULOUS!

To recently retired Matty Williams, it seems like the world is moving too fast and leaving him in the dust. Everywhere he turns, all he sees are people completely absorbed in their phones, tablets, and electronic devices. Then while out with his girlfriend he notices people have started buying popcorn on the way OUT of the theater, and it doesn’t stop there. Is the world going nuts or is he? E-Pocalypse is a brilliantly written, fabulously narrated, Dystopian Thriller and I could not stop listening! Honestly, this one held me fast to my chair, head phones on, breath baited as I tore through it in one sitting! I have to confess, the one frightening thought screaming through my mind was big brother is on your tail, big sister is with him, they are coming for you, and oh my god this could really happen! This story was that well thought out, that cohesive, that frightening, THAT GOOD and I LOVED it! Five stars!

Almost too realistic

This story is intriguing. The premise seems far fetched— until you see the symptoms it describes right in front of you. As in all sci fi, there is a bit of hand waving at the actual techie side of things. But the action keeps moving and the characters become your friends.

Overall, a solid listen.

I received this audiobook for free in exchange for a review.

Enjoyable Science Fiction Dystopian Story

I really enjoyed this listen, the story is really not that far from being fictional and is thought provoking when compared to how dependent our society is on technology, internet, and social media. Just where are we headed...

E-pocalypse is brilliant!

You will love this book. e-pocalypse claimed my attention. I felt like I was in the story.
