Gone Dark

De: Amanda Panitch

Narrado por: Amanda Dolan

Dry meets Hatchet in this thrilling tale of survival following a teen girl who must lead her friends across the country to the safety of her estranged father’s survivalist compound after a mass power failure leaves the country in chaos.

When 17-year-old Zara escaped her father’s backwoods survivalist compound five years ago, she traded crossbows and skinning hides for electricity and video games...and tried to forget the tragedy that drove her away.

Until a malware attack on the United States electrical grids cuts off the entire country’s power.

In the wake of the disaster and the chaos that ensues, Zara is forced to call upon skills she thought she’d never use again - and her best bet to survive is to go back to the home she left behind. Drawing upon a resilience she didn’t know she had, Zara leads a growing group of friends on an epic journey across a crumbling country back to her father’s compound, where their only hope for salvation lies.

But with every step she takes, Zara wonders if she truly has what it takes to face her father and the secrets of her past or if she’d be better off hiding in the dark.

Fast, enjoyable read

When is the next book coming out? Want more. Zara is a strong character who is flawed and courageous enough to feel real.

YAL Dystopia

I’m a big fan of dystopian novels. This one provides plenty of food for thought. I rated it a four because there were a few parts I thought were a little far fetched in how quickly humanity would break down without power. The ending wrapped up a little too quickly for my taste but well written overall and a page turner

Oh my god

This book was amazing! As a kid who got raised by a prepper I related to the Zara so much when she was thinking things through and when her dads voice was in her head.
