Summary

Start the First Season of the Groundbreaking Post-Apocalyptic Serial! Yesterday's Gone: Season One (episodes 1-6).

WARNING: This is a post-apocalyptic horror audiobook where bad people do evil things, and as such, this series features disturbing scenes and foul language. While it is all within the context of the story, some listeners may find this content offensive.

Can humanity survive what it never saw coming? On October 15 at 2:15 a.m. Earth vanished. A scattered few woke alone in a world with no rules, other than survival at any cost. A journalist wanders the wretched reality of an empty New York, searching for his wife and son. A serial killer must hunt in a land where prey is now an endangered species. A mother shields her young daughter from danger through every terror-filled breath.

A bullied teen is thrilled to find the world gone missing, until the knock on his door. A fugitive survives a fiery plane crash. Will he be redeemed, or return to the killing he's best at? An eight-year-old boy sets out on a journey to find his missing family, only to find something that will change him forever. These survivors aren't truly alone...Someone or something is watching them. And waiting...

Strangers unite. Sides are chosen. Can humanity survive what it never saw coming?

Critic reviews

"My only complaint about Yesterday's Gone is that it pretty much took over my life for the last week. I can't say I didn't stop listening - I did after all manage to go to work, play with my kid, live my life...but I sure didn't want to put it down. It's extremely well written, engaging, witty and terrifying in turn, and has a plot that will keep you guessing. I'll be downloading season 2 almost immediately so I guess my spare time will continue to be dominated by Messrs. Platt and Wright. I unashamedly tout it as one of the best things I've listened to this year, and unreseverdly recommend it to anyone." (Amazon Reviewer)

Yesterday's gone

If you could sum up Yesterday's Gone: Season One in three words, what would they be?

intriguing, exciting, cheesy.

What did you like best about this story?

The concept. I'm a big fan of survival and si-fi titles and this was almost a combination of both.

Which scene did you most enjoy?

Black island.......

If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

yesterday's gone, the nightmares aren't.

Any additional comments?

Apart from some really cheesy lines from some cheesy characters this book really sucked me in and left me wanting more. I'll be listening to season two.

Drags in Parts But Can Be Pacy

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

No. There are better books I would recommend in this type of genre such as Mountain Man.

What did you like best about this story?

Boricio Wolfe is a fascinating character and is excellently represented by the narrator.

Which scene did you most enjoy?

The telling of their first sexual encounters on the "road trip" which helped develop the character of the serial killer giving him a 3 dimensional feel rather than making him the usual caricature that writers often do with such a character.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No.

Any additional comments?

I had decided not to continue with the series about three quarters way through the book but then changed my mind. The story is good but drags for awhile towards the later part of the book. However, as it moves towards its conclusion it picks up the pace again and draws you in. I will continue with the series as I am eager to discover how some of the character's stories progress (I couldn't care less about some of the other characters).

Rivetting

Excellent story, excellent performance by all concerned. The narrators brought it alive in suitable chilling fashion.

intriguing

A decent story (so far) - but some v cheesy voice acting by a few cast members sort of breaks the tension... I have bought season 2 anyway, cos I want to see where they take this weird scifi/horror mash-up.

Great book

Great book, really enjoyed it, but I wished it would be read with male characters and female characters were read by male and female readers, sometimes it felt a bit cringy to hear a male voice trying to speak like a female character and female trying a male character, but overall its a really good book with amazing voices.

Good story - no ending

I really liked the story, the actors were great - however I was dissapointed that there is no ending. I know it's a series, but I have no option to leave it at series 1.
