Rebirth

The Burning Tree, Book Two

By: Christopher Artinian

Narrated by: Kim Bretton

They thought escaping the bunker was their biggest challenge. They were wrong.

With little food and no resources, the fragile union is beginning to strain. But there’s something else, too - something lurking in the shadows.

When the power died, the bunker went black. But it was nothing like the darkness that awaits them now. A new panic is spreading, but this time, few have hope of escaping it.

This was meant to be a fresh start, a rebirth. Instead, it could be the beginning of the end.

Will Callie and her friends be among the lucky ones? Or will their newfound freedom be short-lived?

They’re about to find out.

Uniquely terrifying

This is a great story with a Saw vibe but way better! I usually stick to the post-apocalyptic genre but this was a nice change. It kept me interested and in suspense. Admittedly, it did take a chapter or so for it to really suck me into the story since it’s not what I normally listen to. Once I got into it I was HOOKED!!!



This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review

Rebirth a revolution

I dislike the fact that it ended. Excuse me while I listen again!
I cannot wait for the Burning Tree book 3.
Salvation: Burning Tree book one: if it was a paperback would have a broken binding by now - I loved the book and love even more the song and almost wish it would have been included in this audio version too. I’m still a fan of the strings between sections.
I’m still a fan of the continuous cliff hangers as we wait with anticipation and catch up with other characters.
Greenslade may be my new favorite character- I enjoy the growth from the misanthropic man we met in book 1.
Callie and Zed are pretty cool too.

I find the Donner party twist up the survivors of the other bunker devised super twisted and creepy.

I’m looking forward to finding out where Machete has disappeared to *shivers* talk about a character I don’t want appearing in my dreams.

Marvelously brilliant again, thank you for all your time and effort bringing fabulous characters to life!


This review is voluntarily and honest to the best of my ability having listened to all books in the End of Everything series and Safe Haven Series, to to mention the terrifying Relentless series. Thank you to Tina for giving me a promo copy of the audiobook at my request.

If I could give 10 stars I would

I don't know where Christopher Artinian comes up with these gems but I'm so glad he does. From his Zombie (End of Everything and Safe Haven) series, to his Horror (Relentless) series and this series about life after the meteor, I can't get enough and hate having to wait for the next in the series. Thankfully he is steady in his output of books to keep us all entertained. Kim Bretton is a treasure. The myriad of voices she creates, the characters she brings to life and her beautiful singing are a joy to listen to.

Greenslade to the rescue...kind of

Rebirth (The Burning Tree, Book Two) by Christopher Artinian and narrated by Kim Bretton is an excellent second to the series. Between the story, narration, and fast-paced action, you can’t help but be drawn in. Recommend if you are looking for a new post-apocalyptic series, new to or are a fan of Christopher’s work, looking for something with lots of action, or a story with awesome world building, character development, and narration.

What’s it about? Callie, Susan, Phil, and the remainder of the group continue the quest for survival. They face unforeseen threats arise, struggles occur, friendships are formed, enemies are made, and so much more takes place (I look forward to what I think is going to play out and no, I’m not giving any hints). You might even learn a little bit about farming/survival if you are a novice. This is a story you could easily see taking place in our future.

Kim Bretton once again does a brilliant job. She brings the characters to life and captures the bad guys with perfection.

I recommend this one and I doubt it will disappoint. It will be a re-listen for me. If you are new to Christopher’s work or Kim’s narration, give it a try but make sure to start with the first book of the series.

“Bravery is doing something despite your fears. That’s why it’s brave. Rarely do brave people feel brave; they feel scared to death.”


*I was given a free review copy of the audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. Thank you for allowing me to listen and review the book! Tina, Christopher, and Kim- sorry for the delay in the review, between the holidays and sickness, it was longer than I wanted. Thank you again for the opportunity! P.S. I still have the song stuck in my head :)

Amazing

Great second installment in this series! Love all of the character. Love that one we hated is getting a bit of redemption throughout this story line. Smart and resourceful people are always entertaining!
Everything. Christopher writes is pure gold! You will never go wrong or be bored by any story this man tells!
Kim Bretton is one of my favorite narrators ever! She is absolutely amazing!

amazing uet again

I absolutely loved following Calli and her friends as they learn to navigate and live above ground again. They face many obstacles that her group will need to overcome. Narrator does an awesome job once again, bringing the characters and story to life.

I received a free codes and am leaving my ho est review of the audiobook.

2nd of Series

I totally enjoyed this series, a bit different apocalypse from author. It continues to follow the characters of Callie, Dani, Jiang, Tania, and Phil and 1800 others as they escape the bunker but face many dangers as they break up in groups and some die. Not sure if this is the end or will continue Callie and her group as they want to develop the farm will they succeed and whose family stay together. Hint listen carefully as there are many characters and lots of action. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. THANK YOU

I really enjoyed hearing this story. It is a fast paced story with lots of action and I look forward to hearing how the next next one plays out. Kim, as always, did an excellent job!

A must read series.

Another brilliant series. Can't stop reading & and going between books as they come out.

Fantastic

Absolutely love where Chris decided to take this one
Master character building with each one invoking some type of feeling
Kim never disappoints with another stellar performance
Now to patiently wait for book 3 5stars
