Run

A Novel

De: Blake Crouch

Narrado por: Scott Brick

A gripping apocalyptic thriller about a man and his family running for their lives in an America gone mad—from the New York Times bestselling author of Dark Matter and Recursion

No time to think. No time to ask why. Only time to run.

Five days ago, the epidemic of rage began.

Four days ago, the rash of senseless murders swept the nation.

Three days ago, the president addressed the country and begged for peace—even as the murders increased tenfold.

Two days ago, the killers began to mobilize.

One day ago, the power went out.

And tonight, the killers are reading the names of those to be killed over the Emergency Broadcast System.

Jack Colclough is listening over the battery-powered radio on his kitchen table in Albuquerque, and he just heard his name. People are coming to his house to kill him, his wife, his daughter, and his son.

He has no idea what’s happening, or why, but the time for questions is long past.

His only chance is to run.

Following an ordinary family on a desperate race through an America that’s destroying itself, Run is a terrifying, brutally stripped-down thriller from master storyteller Blake Crouch.

Blake Crouch’s novels are . . .

“Gloriously twisting.”—The New York Times Book Review

“Wildly entertaining.”—AV Club

“Masterful.”—Harlan Coben

Overly gory

This was an interesting premise but then devolved into gory violence with no end in sight. Stopped reading before the end. I would just skip this one

Not at the Dark Matters level for sure

Just a survival story with gore fest. Nothing memorable. Similar to Recursion, this one is forgetable.

Another winner!

Blake Crouch has done it again. I am sure this will make its way to the big screen. It’s riveting. A thriller from start to finish. Sad and scary, but also hopeful. It will make you think about the things that really matter in life. Great read/listen!!!

Adrenaline, Lacking Perspective

Blake Crouch knows how to write and he writes well and with this new novel he has written what feels like an adrenaline rush from start to finish following apocalyptic events.

The challenge with this book, or what’s lacking, is a sense of perspective: we never know in any real depth of what caused the events. We don’t get any background necessarily except for dribs and drabs here and there. So you can piece something together.

But with the amount of action energy that this book has, it could benefit from a break or two with a chapter or part, it takes a deeper dive into the causes of this event.

That being what it is, i like the family, i want them to come together, and i hope for the best as they face these challenges as together.

Great voice actor
