Publisher's summary

All the electricity has gone out, nobody knows why, and it's five months later. Food is scarce, and gas is scarcer. The world isn't sudden chaos: it's simply quiet and lost. Survival depends on trusting the right people, and staying away from the wrong ones. But how can you tell the difference?

Tulsa is a ground's-eye view of the apocalypse: a front-row seat to the slow-motion unraveling of society and the things we believe comprise identity. As the world falls apart, there are people everywhere - trustworthy or treacherous - and somewhere in the countryside, there is a particular farm....

couldn't stop listening until it was done.

my first book of his. I really liked the flow of the story. well read

He’s not just a guy

Take a walk on the wildside. This mild mannered Fantasy Football Host has a dark side. A really well constructed novel. He uses dirty words I never thought he’d say.

A wonderfully narration of a great story.

Definitely worth a listen to support this man and his dreams.

New blood for the genre!

My interest in the story grew cumulatively as I pictured myself as one of the people of the book. Glad to hear a new author taking on the end of the world.

Sometimes the journey is not enough.

It was a good enough story, but I couldn’t sync with the narrators style of speaking, and that was a bit distracting. I also found myself wondering what the overall point was, and realized that sometimes it’s just about telling a story, however for this particular story I needed a bit more to satisfy me.

Worth the listen or read

I enjoy books in a dystopian world. I finished listening to this in 24 hours... definitely worth it.

Great!

I purchased the book because I was having withdrawals of not hearing Christopher Harris's voice from his beloved podcast. I'm not a book person and have a short attention span but Tulsa was fabulous. Truly enjoyed the story line and characters. I cant wait for the next one,maybe listening aboard my yacht.

Great book!

I would recommend this book to anyone looking for an intriguing and exciting story. It was interesting throughout and the ending had me on the edge of my seat.

Interesting story about the collapse of human

It was an interesting story but I feel like the story could have been told better by a professional narrator versus the author.

This time, the echo chamber is right

What was I doing when the power went out? Managing my fantasy football team that no one cared about. Big Ben was on the road and I was going to sub him for some Tier 2 also ran with a juicy divisional match up. But I didn't. Beyond the echoes of a thousand talking heads, I chose the counsel of some yacht dwelling blowhard from New England whose voice seemed more reason than bluster. But I couldn't quite submit before the wifi dropped out and civilization shortly followed suit.

Six months later my days are spent wandering the streets, playing possum and hiding amongst trash bags from unionized mobs hell-bent on my destruction. Who could’ve predicted anosmia would be my upside in this post-apocalyptic hellscape?

But today is the day I fight back. Consumed by hunger and badly limping, I hole up in the fortress of one of my former oppressors. Far removed from my previous life battling dry cleaners and office politics, my current foe is an overlooked, industrial grade can of guacamole hidden in this derelict Mexican grille establishment.

After hours of struggling to relieve the jar of its creamy avocado treasure, I spy can opener perched high atop a storage shelf. Too high to reach given my diminutive stature, I swing aloft with my makeshift crutch, but it doesn't budge. Dammit, Chipotle, you win again.

If you haven't yet, I highly recommend you pony up for Tulsa. Great book, thanks Harris!

Gestalt

This was a great story depicting what life would be like if the power grid suddenly went down for good in the US. Chris does a wonderful job depicting people's emotions and thought processes during this time of crisis.. I thoroughly suggest you give it a read.
