Sixteen-year-old Luke was trapped in Chicago when the lights went out and civilization began to unravel. Determined to get home to his family, Luke begins a 1,000-mile odyssey that will show him the depths of human depravity while also giving him a chance at redemption.

Luke is already haunted by what he has seen, and he fears what is yet to come as he takes on a partner in his travels.

Story4 out of 5 stars 19
From out of the clear blue sky, an unknown chunk of rock from the frozen void strikes the Earth with unimaginable force, gouging a wound into the very crust of the planet. Millions die in an instant, and millions more await the end as the looming catastrophe unfolds...Thousands of miles away from the disaster, a call comes in the middle of the night. Families act, and react, and while panic spreads, the world keeps on spinning. Maybe a little slower, and perhaps with a teeny bit more of a tilt, but such things are a mere trifle to the existence of a planet.

Various sub-plots, well thought out, action packed
Luke and Amy have to decide if they will continue their trek to his house or stay in their new sanctuary; however, the choice isn’t clear or easy. Luke is sucked into some new situations where he can be an asset, since his sense of duty and protection override all else. They continue to learn more about what has happened and is happening around the nation, while listeners learn more about Luke’s past. William Allen has created a very well thought out plot that continues throughout the series, and all the sub-plots are expertly woven together. Pat Young’s performance of this book is masterful in its voice and intonation, and really brings it to life for the listener. Highly recommended.

Any additional comments?
Home fires burning was a great second book. The story evolved naturally and new characters were added in a logical sequence. Be prepared, the scenes become so raw and disturbing I cringed at times.
