About this listen

It's only after the apocalypse that you find out what’s really important.

When the cosmic fabric separating the dimensions rips open and spits the inhabitants of Purgatory into the small, west Texas town of Eden, the initial rip is so forceful it kills everyone and everything that isn’t underground. The only thing that saves 14-year-old Jack is that he just happened to be in the school basement at the time.

An unwilling leader, Jack finds himself forced to perform tasks he never would have imagined before the rip. But with the help of a motley crew of survivors, including a deaf dog named Snake—and odd brain-blasts of classic rock-n-roll—Jack grows into the guy who can make decisions that just might save humanity from annihilation.

This is a great well written story following Jake and his dog after an invasion of monsters looking to take your soul. The story moved on at pace and is very well read. Interesting use of classic songs, I would recommend this book.

Great Book
