The Alt Apocalypse, Book 3

De: Tom Abrahams

Narrado por: Kevin Pierce

The pumps fail. The walls break. The city drowns.

The Alt Apocalypse is the newest groundbreaking series from Tom Abrahams. It explores survival under the most extreme circumstances, but with a twist (and no cliff-hangers). This series, which can be listened to in any order, features the same core characters in each complete story. But every audiobook dunks them into a new, alternate apocalypse: a nuclear holocaust, an earthquake, a flood, a wildfire, a hurricane, a plague, and even zombies.

Different heroes will emerge in each novel. Different characters will survive and perish. Your favorite character dies in one audiobook? He or she will be back in the next. In the end, you'll unwind the loose thread that connects every character and every stand-alone story.

In Torrent, Abrahams plunges his characters into an unforgiving flood. College students on vacation, a family trapped and unable to swim, a journalist out of his depth, and a doctor prepared but overwhelmed all face the rising water. The beginnings of a conspiracy begin to surface, possibly connecting strangers and their roles in catastrophes they only vaguely recall.

Some live. Some die. All struggle.

Nailbiter!

I love the idea for this series where each seperate book is a different apocalyptic scenario. In this story a massive flood puts the characters into a very wet situation. At times the outcome looks bleak then a character rises up and becomes a hero of sorts.In some situations the characters find the strength to overcome and survive. Its a fast paced story filled with suspense.

The writing has solid and reached into the human soul. What people really might be thinking or feeling. The descriptions were enough for me to envision the situations and feel like I was there yet they weren't so much they took away from the story. Well written, well narrated. The only thing that didn't grasp me was this happening in New Orleans. Maybe because that already happened and its an obvious mark. Its was a fantastic listen either way and I highley reccomend it for anyone who loves disasters, suspense and characters that will return in another scenario!

Strong premise

this is the third book in the series, but i was told i could read it in any order. Every book has an apocalypse situation and is different for each one. I thought the series was very strong and would probably continue and read from the first one.

FLOODS

Absolutely love this series as it is different takes on post-apocalyptic/dystopian stories and no zombies with some of the same characters in 1St ash and radiation 2nd burning inferno 3rd Floods, Rain,( nonstop hurricanes). Loved the characters of Dr Steven Konkly, Keri, and Dub Daniel and Maggie make appearance , love to see the people helping out each other. Cannot wait for next book Affliction, keep them coming. I also recommend the author’s Travelers series. Recommend to anyone who likes post-apocalyptic/dystopian with great narration.

Easter Eggs Maybe?

Wow, what a story! You can put yourself in this situation easily. This book gives hints that something is afoot in a parallel universe, matrix kind of way. That is the best way I can describe it. Tom Abrahams keeps you on your toes.

Interesting premise

This is the first alt apocalypse book I’ve read and I am very interested to see how all these books tie together. I like the idea of using the same characters just in different situations in each book, leaves more time for action over character development which has already been done for the most part.

I received this book for free in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.

Another good chapter

This is the fifth book I’ve read/listened to by this author and I would listen to pretty much anything he writes. I enjoy his style and the way he writes realistic scenarios. They are not complicated or overly convoluted stories. This book is not either. They are localized apocalypses. I love how the characters are repeating in this series, yet their scenario, success and outcome varies.

This is the eighth book I’ve listened to by this narrator ( Kevin Pierce ). He is this series, this genre. He does so well narrating this (and others by Tom Abraham’s) that I look for his name when I’m offered new books to listen to. His character voices are distinct and narration style brings out the trials the characters face.

There are no explicit sex scenes, excessive violence or swearing.

Great Halloween collection; Scary!

Alright I admit it. This book scared me; it takes some of the most terrifying things imaginable and puts them in a set of short stories. From drowning through an airplane crash and all sorts of other terrible things

I will go over one story briefly to give you a taste of it without spoiling the rest. Have you ever been on an airplane and there is a great deal of turbulence and you wonder if it is getting a bit too rough? Well extrapolate that - a lot rougher; and the lights start to flicker. Yikes!

Now imagine a whole series of mini books like that all put together in one volume; It is hard to pick out a favorite since they all will scare you.

Older pubescent and adolescents it would be okay to let them listen to it but young children under the age of 12 in my opinion it might give them nightmares. It is that scary of a book

I was given this book by the author to review The book did it's job it scared me LOL

A unique apocalypse experience

Torrent: The Alt Apocalypse, Book 3. This series is unique in its aproach. A great piece of entertainment with a few core truths that we might learn from.
Tom Abrahams writing & Kevin Pierce's narration makes for an excellent 7 hours of entertainment.

I was given a free copy of this audiobook at my own request, and voluntarily leave this review.

I got soaked just reading the book.

Ever wonder how you'd survive a flood? This tale will cause you to think about that scenario. For those involved it is truly a story of survival. Of those reading this book who can't swim, I wonder how many now want to learn.

Great concept

I want to start with saying how much I love Kevin Pierce as a narrator! His performances always provide depth and interest. As for the book, wonderful! I love where this series is going. Although the author mentions that you can read/listen to the Alt Apocalypse books in any order, I highly recommend that you read/listen to them by date published. This book is hinting at some exciting developments to come and I am very excited to listen to the next book. The author tears at your heart strings with each book in the series and leaves you cheering for your favorite characters. Well done Mr. Abrahams!
