No Light Beyond

By: L. Douglas Hogan

Narrated by: Chelsea Stephens

Mason Loss was a single father separated from his seven-year-old daughter, Lydia Nicole, when the United States was suddenly devastated by several massive coordinated EMP attacks.

Having sustained life-threatening injuries in his search for her, he awakens from a two-year coma to find that the world is not the way he left it. To make the situation worse, Yellowstone has erupted and expelled an ancient microscopic organism that threatens the course of human survival.

Now, Mason must traverse the ashy suburban landscape in search of his now nine-year-old daughter. Along the way, he discovers a far more terrifying enemy than humankind can safely manage.

Brutal hunt for a mans daughters in a mad world.

Story: It is fast paced and the world starts with all kinds of crap going on. The author finds a way for me to care for them early on and become invested in the characters quickly. Has a few twists.

Writing: Structure was fine and was not taken out of the story with anything awkward.

Narrator: She has so far been one of my favorites. A couple male chatacters did not work but the main ones were fine and she was pleasant to listen too.

Fun book. I reccommend it. Especially if a fan of apocolyptic books.

I like the different approach

So many of these books fall into the same formula. I enjoy this genre so I have accepted that.

No light beyond is a big step above the norm. The hero has a real purpose. He lost his daughter when the world fell apart. Now he is on a mission to find her. His singular focus is interrupted by his need for support, so he finds himself helping others along the way.

If things were not bad enough with thugs and warlords running the streets, an ancient virus has returned that brings the dead back to life. These are much better than your typical zombies. These are fast, feral, bullet soaking monsters.

Chelsea Stephens narration was excellent and I hope this story continues.

Okay post apocalyptic survival story.

The story was ok, a little watered down Walking Dead. Basically Mason wakes up after 2 years in a coma and searches for his daughter who was kidnapped when the world went to ruin. Rival gangs plunder and traffic everything and a new outbreak turns the dead undead. Not sure if this will be a series but it is left wide open. It would be nice to get an ending and although it wasn’t my favorite I’d listen to see what happens. The narrator was fabulous though! I received a free review copy of this book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

A great example of this genre

A great example of this genre, The apocalyptic events are a little overkill but hey it is fiction, and they build into a really great story.
It ends rather vaguely I don't know if that means there will be a book 2 or not. If there is I'll read it! This book is good entertainment.
Narration was clear and strong, Chelsea Stephens made each character distinct and recognisable.
