Publisher's summary

No civilization has ever stood the test of time. When societies collapse...how do the unprepared survive?

After ancient Rome fell to the barbarian hordes and its light went out, 500 years of economic and cultural deterioration followed in Europe - The Dark Ages. In the 14th century, the most brutal pandemic to ravage mankind finally pulled this part of the world out of the darkness. The Black Death decimated over 60 percent of the population, creating an immediate surplus of goods and land, which catapulted Europe into a new age of the rebirth: The Renaissance.

The Black Death pandemic of the 14th century was no act of nature. The outbreak was unleashed on purpose, by an ancient and occult cabal which still operates at the present time, behind the secret societies of the rich and powerful.

In the year 2020, moved by the desire to launch humanity into a new era of enlightenment and scientific advancements, this same obscure society plans to release a virus which can wipe out up to 90 percent of the world's population. Political maneuvering and the biggest false flag event in generations sets their plan in motion, and immediately the president of the United States is caught in a web of horror woven by this powerful global elite.

In the midst of it all, a clandestine CIA agent is torn between honor, duty and family. A struggling entrepreneur obeys the state and yet pays the ultimate price. An influential philanthropist has a dark secret that can alter the course of history, one which might lead a trio of scam artists to get more than they ever expected.

As modern society crumbles and the final unleashing of a New World Order takes place, these five lives will collide in a violent struggle for control, power and ultimate survival.

Well ... I'll never get that time back. I suffered through. This book is not good.

Woah!

This book was so good i hope its not foreshadowing whats to come lol. Once the first chapter is done, its all i was focused on until the end. Great work and storytelling.

Exceptional storyline and narration!

What made the experience of listening to Dark Ages 2020 the most enjoyable?

The author spends the time to develop each character in the story. This had me hooked and invested to see their "plight" relating to their unique situation in the story.

What other book might you compare Dark Ages 2020 to and why?

The storyline is all its own. It has twists and turns like Pulp Fiction, Breaking Bad, and SOA. It is extremely well done and a little crazy at times. Crazy in a good way!

Have you listened to any of DJ Holte’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

DJ Holte's performance is perfect. I liked the different voices he had for each character and the background work was exceptional.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Absolutely. I listened to it on a road trip and it made time fly. The end of each chapter left me speculating how the story would progress. The story switches between characters between chapters and I kept listening because I had to know!

Super listen!

It was a great book. I loved it start to finish. I highly recommend it.

what a terrible book

i dont even know what to write that is how terrible this book was. i was listening while painting and actually felt angry i couldn't pull the earphones out of my ears or change the audiobook im listening to due to all the wet paint on my hands and fingers!
