The Departing

The End Time Saga, Book 4

By: Daniel Greene

Narrated by: Keith Szarabajka

Run, hide, or fight are your only options in this deadly game of apocalypse...but you can only run so far.

Steele and his followers retreat before the might of Colonel Jackson's rogue military unit. Jackson is always two steps ahead in their apocalyptic war, and Steele's back is against the ropes. He must find a way to outlast his opponent while holding his loose confederation of allies and former enemies together or face certain annihilation.

Back in her small hometown of Hacklebarney, Iowa, Gwen struggles to convince her cautious neighbors to provide refuge for Steele's haggard forces. If she doesn't succeed, Jackson's noose will tighten, and her friends and loved ones will be crushed on the banks of the Mississippi River.

The remaining loyal United States military implements a daring plan to hold the nation's eastern flank against the dead. Operation Homefront hinges on the successful training of the civilian population for war. Colonel Kinnick quickly finds that not everyone wants their help.

The dead and the living alike march in a struggle for the ashes of a nation. Like a game of chess, every move dictates who will live and who will die in this epic fourth book of the award-winning End Time saga.

Entertaining

Left me wanting more! Very captivating, the narrator kept my attention. Left me eager to listen to the next book in the series.

Great Read

just finished and will say I loved it. the ending was perfect. some unexpected turn of events along with a few hangers. being from southeast Iowa I enjoyed being able to picture everything and follow all that went down in Iowa.
keep up the good work and excited for the next book in the series!!

great book

even though this book has very little zombies in it, it is still a fantastic book and a great listen

Difficult to 'PART' with 'THE DEPARTING'

Just when I thought "The End Time Saga" could not get any better! Absolutely remarkable! I cannot wait till the next book ("The Holding") comes out.

So much happened in this episode, and I barely noticed the almost nonexistent Zombie fighting. Testament to what a phenomenal novelist Mr. Greene is.

Loss of friends and foes alike, with Steele and Gwen showing new sides/capabilities to their already multidimensional, resilient characters, and loved traveling to Gwen's hometown in Iowa, meeting her family, friends, and even an old beaux of hers from years ago.

This episode certainly left quite a bit of unanswered questions, which I am excited to find out the answers to in the upcoming episodes.

Much thanks to narrator Mr. Keith Szarabajka, who always does a fantabulous job voicing all of the characters. Absolutely terrific! :)

The Departing

Good story line…. Very scary…. Did NOT like the cussing!!!! Unfortunately that’s most likely the way they talk… but I HATE hearing it!!!! It DOEN NOT add to the story!!!!

cool

the series still holding to be a good one.fun fast paced and charactors still intresting

Another thrilling story from Mr. Greene!

It gets better with each new installment! I especially love some of the new character introductions in The Departing and I'm so excited that they are continuing their journey through the midwest! Keith Szarabajka is a fantastic voice actor and I've enjoyed listening to him all through this series- highly recommend!

loved it

loved it.. great series to listen to while at work..can't wait to finish this series

Fast paced and action packed

I binged listened to this book in less than 2 days. I liked how the story took twists that I didn’t see coming. A few parts were a little off to me. The trial that Kinnick presided over and Gwen’s impromptu candidacy seemed out of place being the danger they were facing. All in all,I enjoyed The Departing. Looking forward to the rest of the series.

Action packed and entertaining!

I've enjoyed the series so far and look forward to the next installment. Hats off to the narrator.
