About this listen

The collapse of civilization has left survivors scattered among a few settlements. Preyed upon by roving bands of sadistic ex-soldiers and forever at the mercy of a natural world that has turned against them, a family is facing their final days. Hope appears in the guise of their young son. Taught by his father to survive at any cost, he is thrust headlong into a battle for the future of humankind.

A Desolate Splendor weaves a stark portrayal of life on the brink of extinction, heralding the rise of an exciting new voice in apocalyptic fiction.
