Publisher's summary

From the ashes, heroes will rise....

In an instant, Miami was devastated by a nuclear bomb. Millions fled the destruction as the lethal fallout descended.

Now, the entire city is a hot zone. Hundreds of thousands of citizens are homeless, hungry, and growing more desperate with every passing hour.

While the government scrambles to respond to the worst humanitarian crisis the US has ever seen, Dakota and Logan flee the hot zone. But the insidious radiation can't be escaped. It's already inside them.

Their only chance to survive is to reach the nearest emergency hospital, but deadly foes are determined to stop them. And in the background, unnoticed, a formidable enemy rears its head....

Featuring fast-paced action and strong, complex characters, the Nuclear Dawn post-apocalyptic survival series is perfect for fans of Harley Tate, Sarah Lyons Fleming, Jack Hunt, and Jacqueline Druga.

From the Ashes

A fantastic read. Dakota and her friend are trying to make it to a safe place. And the run in to some major hurdles. This is a fantastic series this is the third Novel in the series. And it is jam packed with lots of action that has you on the edge of your seat. The Narrator has done a fantastic job with the characters and bringing them out. The Author does an outstanding job at the scenes, I felt like I was watching it as I listened I could picture the scenes in my minds eye. This would make a great Movie with sequels with the books in the series. I definitely recommend.

An action packed addition to this series.

This review is based on the audiobook version. Ms. Stone has packed a lot of action in this third installment in the Nuclear Dawn series that takes off from Dakota’s group finding Erin’s foster home and their encounter with Maddox. Along with Dakota's facing Maddox, a couple of new characters make an appearance as they attempt to protect Erin. Additionally, the gang resurfaces as Dakota’s group is trying to get to the safety of the emergency area at the airport. Needless to say the trip form Erin’s foster home to the airport is fraught with danger and numerous hazards. To say much more about the story might provide a spoiler or two, so I’ll just say this installment was a solid addition to this series. Once again Stacey Glemboski’s narration skills make it a story that is hard to put down.

Will keep you on the edge of your seat!

From the Ashes: A Post-Apocalyptic Survival Thriller (Nuclear Dawn, Book 3) by Kyla Stone and narrated by Stacey Glemboski is another excellent addition that will have you on the edge-of-your-seat! Recommend for those who are following the series or if you’re looking for a new post-apocalyptic series.

The story continues where the previous book left off. Eden has been rescued and the group is together trying to make it to a safe zone for medical treatment. Only problem? Maddox arrives and causes problems. From there the chaos continues for the group. They do get a brief breather from the craziness when they make it to a government run safe zone, but it’s not for long. We learn more about those responsible for the bombs, the religious cult, Maddox’s past, Eden learns the truth, and Dakota learns to trust. The mass panic and after-effects progress. There’s great character development in this book (better than the previous). It does end in a cliffhanger, but shouldn’t really be a surprise since it’s a five book series. Kyla’s writing is detailed and makes you feel like you are right there in the story with the characters.

The narrator, Stacey Glemboski, did an excellent job. She definitely helps to make the characters stand out and brings them to life.

“There are people who endure horrific things. Things other people can’t even imagine. Some can break free and forge a different life. Some are broken, life long victims who never believe anything different than what they’ve been taught. Other see the truth, but are too hurt to do the hard work to fix themselves.”

I recommend if you have been following this series or are looking to start a new postapoc series (make sure to start at book one). I binged through this one in a day. I can’t wait for the next book!

Parental guidance/trigger warnings: death, WACO cult mention, child marriage talk, gangs, violence (including father hitting son), religious cult (minimal preaching, more along the lines of end of world and practices such as women remain silent/below the men), and memories of past abuse (physical and mental).

*I was given a free review copy of the audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. Thank you for allowing me to listen and review the book!

The action does not let up!

To survive the city and the gangs, the group have to have all their wits about them, but the radiation sickness is doing a number on each. And just as you thought you knew all the characters, a really interesting plot twist reveals itself. Excellently written and fast paced, just the way I like it.

The narration is again superb, Stacey Glemboski is fast becoming my favorite narrator. She has an awesome voice, a perfectly natural narration style and plays accents and differing voices to my heart's content.

I did win a promo copy for an honest review, and there is really no negatives about this book or series :)

great series to read

I am not normally into this type of stories, but this has been a great book to read. I have read all of these books and wish there were more. I highly recommend this series to anyone that wants an interesting read. I think the books were very well written and never lagged in any place.
