About this listen

No power. No law and order. No safety net. The world as everyone knows it is over.

Laurel is stabilizing a patient in the ER when the power goes out. As she struggles to keep her patients alive, she faces an ugly truth—the world as everyone knew it is over. The smart thing to do is run and try to survive, but Laurel refuses to leave her patients behind—least of all her sick mother. There’s only one choice to make. She’ll have to stay and fight.

Bear is done fighting. War and PTSD have cost him everything—his job, his self-respect, and his wife—Laurel. But when he can no longer deny the old world is gone, he gains a new purpose. Laurel is hundreds of miles away from his mountain cabin, but he knows she needs him.

After so long being a lost soldier, he finally has something worth fighting for. The highways are clogged with dead cars. Frantic survivors want his truck, his tools, his supplies. He'll face treachery, desperation, and endless miles of unforgiving wilderness, but he's going to find his wife. Together, they can survive anything.

He just has to reach her.

If you like post-apocalyptic fiction with a cast of characters you can really root for, filled with prepper and survival information, compelling action, and with zero profanity, you'll love Broken World!

I really do enjoy a Grace Hamilton story, they are well written and this was well narrated and brought the characters to life. I have read the story a while ago and it was interesting to see how the story would work for me being an audible version - it did. Even though I knew what was happening I still had to binge listen it was that good.

Good narration and story

This is an excellent story. The first I've listened to from this author but it certainly won't be the last. It's well written with a plethera of interesting characters. Laurel who works in the Emergency room of a high tech hospital has to do battle with self centred and grasping director when the power goes out. It is thought provoking and brings home how much we as humans and hospitals in particular depend on electricity. Experience of doing things in the old way is useful. Bear, her ex husband lives in an isolated cabin along with his faithful dog, he doesn't even know about the power outage until he has cause to visit a nearby town. He meets up with a Teen boy who's parents have been killed and forms a bond with him. They work well together. The 2 stories intertwine well. Andrew Tell's narration is brilliant and brings the story to life. I can't wait to get hold of book 2 in this series.

A Cracking listen.
