About this listen

Forty years after the destruction of civilization...man is reduced to salvaging the ruins of a broken world. One man’s most prized possession is an ancient novel. With the words of the classic echoing across the wasteland, the survivor of the nuclear holocaust journeys into the unknown to break a curse. What follows is an incredible tale of survival and endurance.

One man must survive the desert wilderness and mankind gone savage to live the classic struggle of man versus nature. Part Hemingway, part Cormac McCarthy’s The Road, a suspenseful odyssey into the dark heart of the post-apocalyptic American southwest.

The author has done a fantastic job creating 3 inter-related books that describe futuristic events with a smart sense of humor whilst also getting you to think about whether these people and events could actually happen. There is great character building in the books.
By narrating his own books, it gets an extra level that rivals even the great RC Bray.

Best post-apocalyptic books I have listened to
