About this listen

Twenty-five years ago, the Overseers conquered Earth and enslaved humanity. The time to fight back has come....

Alec works in the Detroit Overseer-factories, building a mysterious alien device. When three strangers appear, he's provided an opportunity to escape after years of servitude.

Cole, a Freeborn loner, encounters Lina after her village is destroyed by the alien Occupation. Together, they make the arduous journey to a fabled safe-zone, trying to stay one step ahead of the enemy drones on their trail.

Dex is a Hunter, working for the Occupation to track down escaped factory slaves, or Roamers, at all costs. But his latest hunt uncovers a massive secret and threatens his loyalty to the Overseers.

All their fates are bound. For the first time in decades, a secret enclave of alien resistance fighters known as the Reclaimers prepare to make their move.

This is book is all about survival, it really made me think what I would do in that scenario. The author does a fantastic job creating vivid images and realistic reactions. It amazes me how gripping a post-apocalyptic story can get.

I cant wait for the next book.

Survival what!? Rise fight survive, thrive!

I struggled in the beginning but I think that's a personal thing where I prefer a story to be told from the perspective of a single character rather than multiple simultaneous plots. However, once I got into the flow of it all I was hooked and hoping for more at the end. This is definitely a story that feels like it's only just getting started.

Ray Porter was great at bringing the story alive, giving characters unique and recognizable voices.

Slow start but hooked by the end
