The Alt Apocalypse

The Complete 5 Book Series

De: Tom Abrahams

Narrado por: Kevin Pierce

A Neverending Race to Survive the Worst of Nature and Mankind. This Is the Alt Apocalypse.

The Alt Apocalypse is the ground-breaking, genre-bending series from Tom Abrahams. It explores survival under the most extreme circumstances, but with a twist (and no cliff-hangers). This series, which can be listened to in any order, features the same core characters in each complete story. But every book dunks them into a new, alternate apocalypse; a nuclear holocaust, an earthquake, a flood, a wildfire, a hurricane, a plague, and even zombies.

Different heroes will emerge in each novel. Different characters will survive and perish. Your favorite character dies in one book? He or she will be back in the next. In the end, you'll unwind the loose thread that connects every character and every stand-alone story.

This collection includes all five full-length novels in the series: Ash, LIT, TORRENT, AFFLICTION, and POX.

Better than many - PLEASE READ IN ORDER!!

I loved the concept - a set of characters set in different end-of-the-world scenarios, and they can be read in any order. Some characters you like may die in any scenario, but the next one starts all over and they face a new armageddon. And at first, this was true, but then an overarching storyline begins to emerge, so while you DO NEED TO READ THEM IN ORDER, they are worth the time to read, and the overarching storyline that connects all of the stories is pretty good. In fact, it's a great value for one credit.
Having said that, there might be a few too many characters to keep track of, but that's likely my issue with ADHD.
I might even listen to them again, that that will let me catch stuff I didn't get the first time.

I loved this—

I really enjoyed this series. Nothing is perfect but I’m actually sorry there isn’t another 3 or 4 books in the series. I’ll wait a few months to listen to it again to see what I missed.

Thought Provoking and Touching

A well-crafted study of what one man would do to save the love of his life, and how apocalyptically it affects the multiverse. I loved the characters, the touching moments, and loved the ending.

It's Really, Really Good!!

Truly different take on this genre that is Really, really good!!Literally every apocalyptic happening was something out of what's described in Revelation during the tribulation...fires, water/flooding, disease, unrepentantly angry violent people here called zombies. The effects of the ride of the 4 horsemen on the SAME CAST in each one was outstanding in the literal and figurative sense. I lived through a severe flooding during a rainstorm, so the descriptions "triggered" memories. Yet the characters are completely scientific or philosophic in their outlooks rather than religious in any capacity. Ellen Chang's character is truly the connecting piece, so I'm super glad I was able to listen to all 5 back2back. Tom Abrahams is now truly 1 of my all-time favorite authors. Combining his skills with Kevin Pierce's narration is a winning team, hands down. Definitely worth a re-listen!! It would be interesting to read a "short" about Lane's meeting with Marcus Battle from Marcus's point of view.

Unusual

I thought these books were very unusual and very well done. They aren't your typical set of stories. They definitely kept my attention and I was very happy with the ending. Great books

Uneven series

I should start off by saying, I only read three of the books …. But that’s because, I only liked the first book in this collection (Ash). The others weren’t bad, but for some reason I grew tired of the characters. I like Abraham books in general, but I think this series was a bit uneven. I can’t say if things got better after book 3, but I wasn’t interested in finding out.

Mehhh

If I hear UCLA again I'm going to vomit. The first one was good, there were moments in 2,3 and 4. But it was a chore. I had the zombie one hyped up only to be disappointed. it wasn't a zombie book at all just talk and mentions of zombies...

Good series!

I'd read 4 of the 5 books in the series on Kindle (and yes, I need to buy the 5th one) and really enjoyed the audiobook. Tom Abrahams can spin a good story and Kevin Pierce has become one of my favorite narrators. If you like apocalyptic tales, I absolutely recommend this collection!

My only real complaint is that chicken sausages are neither vegetarian nor vegan! But that's the only thing I recall the author getting wrong.

Different but held my attention.

I liked the ending of book 5 best. The multiverse was an interesting subject throughout the series. Not my favorite type of book but well worth 1 credit and many hours of entertainment instead of TV.

Didn’t like the ending

Kept my attention. Didn’t care for the final book/ending but it was a good listen.
