About this listen

Caught in the vortex of a nuclear attack, John and Samantha Worthington manage to take cover and survive the blast, but emerge to find that their town has been virtually obliterated. In their search for survivors in nearby cities, they soon discover that these attacks have taken place on a grand scale. John's health begins to deteriorate as a result of exposure to radiation, but when they finally discover a secluded group of mysterious survivors, he is offered a revolutionary form of treatment by their physicians. The effect of this procedure will put their relationship to the ultimate test. As they both confront their own nightmares, they also discover that their new, pristine community is hiding a dark and terrible secret. A secret that will change the course of humanity.

interesting opening chapter

overall, story started to lag as soon as they went down the road towards the central element of the story. The world building was ok at the start except that some research in the effects of nuclear war would have helped as some of what was described is clearly wrong to anyone with some familiarity with the topic, see the films Threads or When the Wind Blows which are better at world building and the effects.
The Road is far superior in this dystopian vision and the effects on the people involved.
casually entertaining with some promise. might benefit from better editing to avoid repetition and clear gaps in time and space.
Overall, worth a listen if you have the time.....
