Publisher's summary

The highly anticipated debut novel from Norman Reedus, acclaimed star of The Walking Dead

“This country wasn’t built on good—only fought for with good intentions.”

Jack’s dying mother told him, “Run and never look back.” He spent his life amassing wealth, but after losing his family, he has no one to share it with. Alone with his demons and a backpack, he heads to South America, where people with nothing teach him what matters.

After thrashing his dog-abusing boss, Hunter learns of his father’s death in a mysterious fire. Biker buddies Nugget and Itch ride with him from North Carolina to California. Stories from his father’s life help ease the struggles of small-town Americans. Hunter discovers a secret past.

Seventeen-year-old Anne flees Tennessee after her older brother attacks her. She whacks him with a skillet and hops a freight to Alabama with her best friend. Living hand to mouth, they build friendships, uncovering something they never had: family.

The Ravaged is a fast-paced, up-in-your-face novel of gritty realism, exploring three different personal quests with eerily parallel outcomes.

Wow...just wow

An absolutely amazing story and with Norman reading, you are transported directly into the lives of the 3 characters. Very well done and I hope more is written.

Awesome

Very good. Left me wanting more of the characters story. I hope there is a book 2 or even 3 separate books of each main character.

Enjoyed it.

There has to be a followup coming out, things didn’t resolve themselves fully in any of the 3 characters. I didn’t mind as it was a fun ride, but I hope another book is coming.

A great first novel

The Ravaged is a great debut novel written by Norman Reedus of Walking Dead fame. It is gritty and follows the lives of several individuals at a crossroads in each of their lives. I personally loved it and hope that there is a follow up very soon.
