About this listen

A twisting YA novel from New York Times and international best-selling thriller writer Matthew Reilly.

'The windows on all the skyscrapers are smashed....
No power, no lights, no people....
It's a parallel New York of some kind.'

The Coming End

When Skye Rogers and her twin brother, Red, move to Manhattan, rumours of a coming global apocalypse are building. But this does not stop the young elite of New York from partying without a care.

Can You Keep a Secret?

And then suddenly Skye is invited to join an exclusive gang known as the Secret Runners of New York. But this is no ordinary clique - they have access to an underground portal that can transport them into the future. And what Skye discovers in the future is horrifying....

Run! As Fast as You Can!

As society crumbles and Skye and Red race to figure out how to use their knowledge to survive the impending annihilation, they soon discover that the chaotic end of the world is a fine time for revenge....

Not the best book MR has written but a good read overall! If there was a sequel I probably would!

A good read.

I was quite unsure about this title, but took a risk on it.

It turned out to be very good, although rather gruesome in parts. But not gratuitously so.

Good storyline and well structured

Unexpected and compelling

This is a fantastic listen. Starts with a real bang and the rest of the book doesn’t disappoint. Very descriptive and great at building a picture and so much so you feel you are there. Builds to a climatic and frantic end that has you on the edge of your seat. I already read the book, but it is even better listening to it.

Great standalone book from Matthew Reilly.

I absolutely loved this book, it was so nicely written. The story was great, the characters made you either love or hate them and I really hope there's a TV show adapted from this.

Loved it!

Matthew Reilly is a favourite author of mine, ever since I picked up Seven Ancient Wonders. So when this book appeared I assumed it was going to sit in a similar category. It doesn’t, But that does not matter. Reilly has written yet another imaginative book in his literate style. It’s an exciting and unique read. Do buy this book!
The narrator is so important for audio books. Norma Butikofur has a voice I could listen to. She has a great way of defining the characters and getting across their personalities. She also does very well to distinguish between the characters and it feels like you’re listening to different people.

Ahhh Reilly you’ve done it again

Not for me - but then I’m not the target audience. I found the story hard to care about. The main character was both racist and sexist, she claims to be unlike the other horrid girls yet continually belittles others for their skin colour, size and mental health. It wouldn’t be so bad if those awful representations were ever challenged - they weren’t. So maybe that’s just how the author really does perceive the world and how people are.

Sorry not for me. I liked the Mayan references but they passed so quickly I couldn’t really treasure them.

Unusual but too much swearing.

Absolutely fantastic book, loved the thriller/mystery aspect of it, kept me coming back at every chance so I could find out what happened to all the characters. Another great book by Matthew Reilly

Brilliance as usual
