Whisper Ridge: After the Pulse, Book 1

By: Sean Liscom

Narrated by: Christopher Lane

High in the mountains east of Klamath Falls, the secluded community of Whisper Ridge watches as the sky ignites. When a catastrophic 2027 Carrington Event tears through the Earth's magnetic shield, the grid collapses, and civilization vanishes swiftly.

Mason Ashford, a solar analyst and the last person who ever wanted to be in a leadership position, finds himself thrust into the middle of a crisis no one is ready for. At his side is longtime friend, Lisa Taylor, a sharp-minded and unflinching individual, the only person who understands the science as deeply as he does.

But survival takes more than knowledge.

Elijah Rourke, a retired Army officer with the calm precision of a man who's seen too much, becomes the backbone of Whisper Ridge's defense. Tessa Vaughn, a battle-hardened Navy Corpsman with scars she doesn't talk about, brings grit, skill, and a quiet strength Mason can't ignore.

As chaos spreads beyond the mountains, Whisper Ridge must transform from a peaceful gated community into a united front against a world in turmoil. In the aftermath of the storm, loyalty is tested, and ordinary people become the only heroes left.

After the Pulus BK1

Extremely well written, and preformed. I enjoyed this book from start to finish and look forward to book 2!

The whole story

Really enjoyed this story. A mix of preparing for a what if emergency & retired military vets in action, all without any explicit sexual content. What made it an even better listen for me is hearing one of my favorite narrators Christopher Lane.

another good Sean Liscomb

I really enjoy his writing style. His characters speak in a real life way. I can relate to them.

Great narration by Christopher lane

Other than the great narration there is good character development. The story and plot could be a real scenario. Waiting for book 2!

This was hard to put down when you started!!

This was a great read. Factual and well written. I’ve read/listened to most of Sean Liscom’s and I think this series will top the list. Can’t wait to see what happens with Mason , Tessa, and Lisa in the next ones.
