Publisher's Summary:

"This is what the truth is. Second Salvations murdered my parents, and I'm running away."

A single post over unregulated Internet channels. A sleeping society awakens to a chase, broadcast live on television screens all across the New United States of America....

Rebecca and Daniel have never met. A 15-year-old preacher's kid and a 16-year-old atheist outcast, they appear to have little in common. And yet they both have attracted the attention of a recruiter for Angel Island, where bad kids go to be remade-or destroyed.

Agents of the all-powerful New America Unity Church will stop at nothing to get them. They're building an army, a modern children's crusade, in which Rebecca and Daniel may be just the kind of future leaders they need.

If not, they might be just the kind of sacrifice necessary to keep the rest of the faithless in line.

A fun time

I loved the varying emotions I felt while listening to this book. Its a slow burn but once it get going it doesnt seem to stop. Id recommend this to anyone who likes a nice rollercoaster of emotion with their action. Youll feel it all; sadness, anger and so on and to me that is what makes a good story. You feel for the main character and her struggle in this seemingly horrifying universe.

Jessica delivers the story to you with wonderful character voices and she always has a way of bringing the stories she reads to life. Marcus Damandas fantastic writing coupled with Jessicas smooth relaxing voice makes for a very good time!

A great story by one of the best horror writers out there today

This book was amazing Marcus can really set a tone and create nightmares like not many others can I highly recommend this to any horror fiction fan

Publisher's Summary:

An infection is spreading. People are dying, but they don't stay dead.

St. Louis is falling to pieces. In the midst of rioting, a dangerous new disease has sprung up, pushing an already dire situation over the edge. Those who are infected suddenly become extremely aggressive, attacking and even eating those around them.

And Olivia Bennett is caught right in the middle of it.

When Liv comes face to face with the infected, her hectic life grinds to a halt as the city around her begins to devour itself. Forced to flee from her car with nothing but her 18-month-old daughter, Elli, Liv must trek 40 miles on foot across the feral infested suburbs of St. Louis to a safe haven that may not even be safe.

Fight or die. What other hope does she have?

Members Reviews:

about the human aspect of the zompocalyp

This story is an excellent example of the zombie genre - it covers the first 5 days following a zombie outbreak in St. Louis, Liv and her baby Ellie are caught in traffic on a bridge when the danger reaches them and Liv has to do whatever it takes to get them to safety.

This book is about the human aspect of the zompocalypse, rather than the scientific or military sides. It considers how ordinary people would react to this situation and how messed up things would get within less than a week (pretty damn messed up, as it happens). It's the race for survival that gets you hooked, the fear and uncertainty is tangible. Their journey has a few parts to it as they hold up in different abandoned houses along the way and meet other survivors, making it easy to break this audio up into series if you want to listen to it in smaller chunks.

I feel that the fear factor would have been amped up by using the baby as a character a little more, there were long stretches of time without any mentions of her at all when she could have contributed to the feeling of danger. This is an action-driven novel, with moderate gore and a load of loss and violence. It surprised me how quickly characters adapted to sprinting for long distances and taking mallets to the heads of the infected.

The TJ Richards' strength is voicing the characters, she pulled off a variety of accents and gave them all distinct voices that I really enjoyed. She added to the atmosphere of desperation surrounding the survivors and made this a great audiobook to listen to.

It was an amazing story

This is an amazing story of a young mother and her young toddler daughter escaping the St. Louis area during the zombie apocalypse and seeking to reach safety with family and friends. It is an extremely poignant view of a mother and her struggle to save herself and her daughter as they travel to safety. At times with help more often than not on their own with hordes of zombies rampaging around and it times chasing them. Wondering where her husband is and the rest of her family and making the right decision to save her self and her daughter. This is my favorite zombie story. You can feel the raw emotion put into the story by the author and you actually become in twined in the story cheering the successes and dreading the failures as they make their journey to safety. A strong female lead character and absolutely exciting and entertaining story of a zombie apocalypse.

Publisher's Summary:

Thomas Pendleton loves his wife, Ann, and six-year-old son, Seth, more than anything, but his job often makes him an absent husband and father. One day, after Thomas leaves on a business trip, his wife and son are killed in a car accident. Thomas shuts himself off from the world and is at home grieving when a cosmic storm enters Earth's atmosphere. Scientists are baffled by its composition and origins, but not nearly as much as they are by the storm's side effect: Anyone who has died and chosen not to cross over is suddenly visible and can interact with the living.

Ann does not return, but Seth does, and Thomas sees it as a miraculous second chance to spend time with his son and keep the promises he had previously broken. They set out on a trip to the Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C., but little do they know that they are traveling headlong into a social and political maelstrom that will test Thomas in ways he could never imagine. Along the way, they come face to face with armed kidnappers who want Seth for his supernatural abilities, meet up with a medium, the ghost of a slave boy, and encounter none other than Abraham Lincoln.

Citing an overpopulation problem caused by the Impalpables, the government begins to take drastic measures. Military scientists have a device called the Tesla Gate that is said to return Impals to where they were before the storm. Many have nicknamed the controversial machine "the shredder" because no one really knows if it will do what it is reputed to, or if it will instead shred the Impals - effectively destroying the soul. Thomas is determined to do everything possible to save Seth, or at the very least, ensure that Seth doesn't have to endure his sentence alone....

The Tesla Gate

A paranormal thriller combines science fiction, horror and a fantastical premise with a heart-wrenching relationship story about a father and his son. Add some great moments of humor, and a ton of insight into what death means and how we "deal" with it, those of us living, anyway, and you have all the mixings of a great new series.

this book made me cry it's not fair

I loved this book so much so enticing so great such a beautiful concept I never would of Imagine I would read this kind of book and will like it but I did it was so sad the acceptance did the people we lost are here with us but they are not really with us I have listened to this book with my heart in my throat it was very emotional and a perfect perfect absolutely perfect book

Creepy and interesting, but waiting for other shoe

First off, let me say that Jake Urry is SO good in this production. He owns this story, and it is a shame that the sequels do not feature his amazing, rumbling tones.

The story requires quite a large amount of "suspension of disbelief" to be sure. It has complexities, compelling characters, and strong story arcs. All that said, I have this nagging feeling, somewhere, somehow, that there is a religious/evangelical aspect looming in the background ( which is fine, it's just mildly off-putting to know it is there, without actually being expressed.)

Maybe it is just me, and normal cynicism, but there you have it. A strong offering notwithstanding.

Ghosts ARE real

What would happen if all the ghosts became visible? Thats the amazing idea for this book. It is told from the first-person perspective of a father and husband; someone who would die for their family.

Title: Strange Weather

Author: Joe Hill

Narrator: Dennis Boutsikaris, Kate Mulgrew, Stephen Lang, Wil Wheaton

Format: Unabridged

Language: English

Release date: 11-07-17

Publisher: Orion

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 5 votes

Genres: Fiction, Horror

Publisher's Summary:

Four short novels from the author of The Fireman and Horns, ranging from creepy horror to powerful explorations of our society.

One autumnal day in Boulder, Colorado, the clouds open up in a downpour of nails, splinters of bright crystal that tear apart anyone who isn't safely under cover. 'Rain' explores this escalating apocalyptic event, as clouds of nails spread out across the country and the world. Amidst the chaos, a girl studying law enforcement takes it upon herself to resolve a series of almost trivial mysteries...apparently harmless puzzles that turn out to have lethal answers.

In 'Loaded', a mall security guard heroically stops a mass shooting and becomes a hero to the modern gun movement. Under the hot glare of the spotlights, though, his story begins to unravel, taking his sanity with it....

'Snapshot, 1988' tells the story of a kid in Silicon Valley who finds himself threatened by The Phoenician, a tattooed thug who possesses a Polaroid that can steal memories....

And in 'Aloft', a young man takes to the skies to experience parachuting for the first time...and winds up a castaway on an impossibly solid cloud, a Prospero's island of roiling vapour that seems animated by a mind of its own.

Read by Wil Wheaton, Kate Mulgrew, Dennis Boutsikaris and Stephen Lang.

A Return To Form for Joe Hill....

I didn't like The Fireman, it was a good idea, that started well, but eventally was ruined by being a bloated, saccharine mess. These for short novels are far tighter and tense affairs. Like lots of good genre fiction the stories hold a mirror up to contemporary situations, especially the current political climate in America. Each story is a great, for their own reasons, and the superb narrations really add to a great audio experience.

Great story

Great story, well written and voiced. I would highly recommend this to any fan of the author.

Strange Days Indeed

I kept thinking, as I listened, that this writing was oddly reminiscent of Stephen King, so it wasn't a huge surprise when I discovered that Hill is King's son. But he's not a faint photocopy of his dad - these stories are original and distinctive. I found myself marvelling both at his imagination and skill in writing. One of the best books of its genre I've come across, and I ordered another of his as soon as I had finished this one.

Strange Weather by Joe King

Definitely Joe's best book so far. characters were more engaging. He is getting there. 20 words more for a review but I was done in the 1st sentence.

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 68 votes

Genres: Fiction, Horror

Publisher's Summary:

The newest terrifying audiobook in the Walking Dead series, thrillingly written by horror master Jay Bonansinga, is truly infectious....

Lilly Caul has risked everything. She has weathered over four years of the apocalypse. She has done things that she would not have dreamt of doing in her darkest nightmares.

But she has survived. And now, she has staked a claim in the plague-ravaged city of Atlanta.

It is a safe haven for her people, rising high above the walker-ridden streets, a place of warmth and comfort. But for Lilly Caul, something is missing....

She still dreams of her former home - the quaint little village known as Woodbury - a place of heartache as well as hope. For Lilly, Woodbury, Georgia, has become a symbol of the future, of family, of a return to normal life amidst this hell on earth.

The call is so powerful that Lilly decides to risk everything in order to go back...to reclaim that little oasis in the wilderness.

Against all odds, against the wishes of her people, Lilly leads a ragtag group of true believers back across the impossible landscape of walker swarms, flooded rivers, psychotic bands of murderers, and dangers the likes of which she has never known. Along the way, she discovers a disturbing truth about herself. She is willing to go to the darkest place in order to survive, in order to save her people, in order to do the one thing she knows she has to do: Return to Woodbury.

Members Reviews:

Still great, but...

I enjoy it as I enjoyed the whole series, but since the previous book, and now again in this one, things have been seeming way too dangerous, even for a TWD story. It feels like the danger is wherever the story is, as in, wherever Lilly's group is, not in the world of the story itself, so characters keep pouring into the story and dying at an unrealistic rate. I know conflict is king, but not everything Lilly's group tries to do has to end in a catastrophic way. It would be great to see some things work well after all and some people just not die sometimes.

Enough of Woodbury already!

Really boring, exceptionally boring. A reboot of the Woodbury obsession that makes less and less sense. I give up on The Walking Dead in any book form.

Amazing

The story gets better and better can't wait for the next one

I think I'll speak for most of your readers I would love to see Lily/Woodberry in the comics

by far the worst book in the series.

I've listened to ever book he's done! this book SUCKED. That was the longest chase scene ever. SMH.. None of his books have been a disappointment... but again this one sucks..

Bummer....

Dont know how much more sadness I can take from this series. Ive have the books and listened to them multiple times. This book, and assuming last book, has bummed me out the most. Ending is not uplifting and I wouldnt have minded if Lily had died. It would be a merciful death for her. Overall, the narration is great. However, Most of the villains in the series end up sounding like the Governor.

Destroying Soul

Jace has lived a horrible life since his wife died until he meets Kitt even then he still experiences horror (you have to listen to the ending to find out) . This is a dark, scary paranormal romance with horror. It not only has a ghost but demons and full of suspenseful twist and turns. Recommend if you enjoy a suspenseful thriller with some romance. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. Thank You.

Not Bad, But Not the Best Paranormal Thriller

I found this book to be only okay plot wise. It started out very slowly and I only stuck in there because I agreed to listen to this book in exchange for an unbiased review - if I had bought the book with no commitment to listen, I would have stopped. There was quite a bit of romance in this thriller, which would have been fine with me if it had been balanced out with much more horror/paranormal/thriller aspects that weren't directly tied to the romance.

The best part of this listen was the narrator - Mittelstedt does a fantastic job with the voice acting. The characters were distinct in tone and accent, allowing the listener to understand who was speaking without the character being named.

Finally, the ending was quite a cliff hanger - an obvious attempt to get the reader to keep listening to the series. I understand the desire to do this, but all it's done is cement the fact that I'm not listening to another whole book to get the answers I wanted to get in this first book.

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

Dark and intense

Unique story. Very intense and dark paranormal listen with unexpected spots of humor. I loved the story and the characters, Jace especially was a very complex and intriguing character. Does end on a bit of a cliffhanger. Will definitely be looking for further books in the series, cant wait to see where it goes. The narrator gave an amazing performance and made the listening experience. I received a free review copy of this audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.

Horror/Paranormal/Romance or somewhere between

I'm not exactly sure where to categorize this book. It is more horror with some paranormal with enough romance to even go in that category.

Members Reviews:

A great Jack Nightingale bedtime story

I was surprised to find STILL BLEEDING when I was looking around to see if the next Jack Nightingale novel had been published yet (it has). As far as I know, this is the first JN short story, and author Stephen Leather had said he was done with Nightingale after the trilogy, but then was persuaded by his publisher to agree to write two more. All of them are very, very good.

In STILL BLEEDING Jack is hired by a Vatican priest dispatched to England to investigate a possible miracle in the form of in a little girl who exhibits the stigmata and claims to be able to see and talk to the Virgin Mary. Ssaid little girl also apparently cured her neighbor of leukemia. The family refuses to talk to the priest who is convinced that there are no such things as miracles, and so he hires Jack to find out what is going on.

Not your usual Jack case, but what Jack discovers and how he handles it is certainly in keeping with the guy who figured out how to outwit demons in earlier novels. A quick and enjoyable read, and all the usual suspects are present, even if only in cameo bits. A fine way to spend an hour or so.

Highly Recommended.

J.M. Tepper

Jack Nightingale is an interesting character

I love this Jack Nightingale character. There aren't many of them, and I hope Mr. Leather writes some more stories around this character. Any fan of Stephan Leather will discover a very different but very interesting departure from his normal writing around the Spider Shepherd adventure novels.

A great read!

Fred

Great story

I really enjoy the Jack Nightingale books and this short story is an especially nice break between books - not because it is light and fluffy - it's not! but because it has all of the theme elements and a much less painful ending than usual. Enjoy.

Love Stephen Leather!

Jack Nightingale - Hero for the ages.

When a young girl displays stigmata and heals her friend of leukemia she needs the audacity of Jack Nightingale to protect her. A very nice read.

Needs to be fixed

Good story idea. However,. too many story lines left unanswered. Some areas not realistic enough.
