Impact

The End of Times, Book 1

By: Nate Johnson

Narrated by: Nick Flesher

It really is the four horsemen of the apocalypse, Death, Famine, War, and Conquest. Things a seventeen-year-old boy shouldn’t have to deal with.

In those most infamous words, mistakes were made. It wasn’t supposed to happen. The asteroid was supposed to miss. Running for their lives, Ryan Conrad and Kelsey Morgan, race to escape the impact of a super asteroid and the apocalyptic world it left behind. Fighting to survive the aftershocks. The earthquake to end all earthquakes, the largest tsunami in human history, and worst of all, the EMP and loss of civilization.

Ryan must lead a ragtag group of people from Seattle to the safety of his grandfather’s farm in northern Idaho. Unfortunately, it seems as if fate is aligned against them. Constantly putting every obstacle in their path. Laying every trap, as if this new dystopian world was designed to kill them.

To top it off. He’s stuck with young kids depending upon him, a girl out of his league, and knowledge that one mistake and they all die.

Two people fighting to survive the Impact. Fighting through the End of Times.

Very entertaining

This was a very entertaining listen was a great story written in a refreshing, different take on your normal survival genre, buck.

Triple threat

Asteroid impact, EMP, and earthquakes/tsunami throw in the predictable societal collapse and this group of teenagers have their hands full.

fast and furious

I liked the pace, most of the characters, and the conflicts between survivors. The female lead was tedious. There are elementary age kids who have more gumption.

the desperation

i liked the development and maturation of the characters. i love that they ended as very different people than the people who started the story.

Fun, Action Packed, Fast Pace

This book isn't pretentious. It does what pretty much exactly what it sets out to do. End of the world YA survival story with a lot of action, loss, and romance. It's worth a listen. I think it's a fun time.
