About this listen

Unconnected lives intersect in a bleak setting. Nothing will ever be the same.

Harbinger (def.): Something that foreshadows or initiates a major change.

Humanity lurches into an uncertain future, dismissive of warning signs. Only the most naïve believe humanity will step back from the brink. Yet in a place that doesn’t exist, a riddle, a puzzle, hope, fear, danger, salvation - all come together.

Zach Marjek has faced death in the far corners of the Earth and survived where others have failed. Now, he's thrust into an unimaginable situation where jaded mercenaries, an Inuit wanderer, a murderous Yupik, a young mother, a video game designer, a retired general, a new president, a Chinese marine, and mathematics prodigies must come together. Their lives and fates intertwine to revolve around a mystery with consequences that could range from disaster to salvation.

As the mystery unravels, a danger unbeknownst to the players lurks and prepares to take what cannot be taken. The future - and life⁠ - hang by the thinnest of threads.

What a fantastic story

I have to admit I haven't enjoyed a book this much in a long time. excellent characters, totally believable settings and scenarios. only one very small downside was that there wasn't as many action scenes as other Thorensen novels, this is looking like it will stretch out to be quite an epic saga so to be fair Olan has to set the scene and introduce all the main characters in the first book. I can't wait for the next book.

Excellent Story

Olan Thorensen is fast becoming one of my favourite authors. This was well-paced and kept my interest until the end. I hope the next book is out soon as it makes my commute home way more enjoyable.

The juice not worth the squeeze...

I was looking forward to Olans new book...but its 20 hours too long....
that is if it is a stand alone series but I am hoping it's in the Anyar universe...which it could very easily be !!!!
The narrator is one of my favourites but even so I suggest upping the speed to 1.10 or higher...
It's not really a groundbreaking story arc but some good ideas are involved...
I highly recommend NOT ALONE....
