Publisher's Summary

The first three books in the Traveler series in one bundle!

Book One: Home

He thought he was prepared. He thought his family was safe. He was wrong.

Five years after a pneumonic plague killed two-thirds of the world’s population, army veteran Marcus Battle is isolated. He’s alone with his guns, his food, and the graves of his wife and child.

Unaware of the chaos that’s befallen everything outside of his central Texas ranch land, Marcus lives a Spartan life. If anyone steps onto his property he shoots first and never ask questions.

But when a woman in distress, chased by marauders, seeks asylum, Marcus has a decision to make.

Does he throw her to the wolves to protect himself, or does he help her and leave the shelter and protection of home?

Book Two: Canyon

He’s homeless. He’s on the run. and he wants revenge.

Marcus Battle has left behind his home.

Now he’s on a seemingly impossible mission to find a missing child. But can he balance that responsibility with his deep, primal desire to exact revenge on the men who destroyed his solitary existence?

The world he discovers on his journey isn’t the one he remembers before a pneumonic plague called the Scourge killed two-thirds of the world’s population. It is lawless, depraved, and far deadlier than the disease which created it.

Battle made a promise to find that child. It’s a promise he regrets more acutely with every step of the journey where he is as much the hunter as he is the hunted.

Book Three: Wall

He survived the scourge. He escaped the cartel. Now he faces the wall.

In the chaos of a global plague, evil took hold. Governments fell, the good became servants, and the Cartel rose to power.

A wall was built to contain the wasteland and keep the evil at bay. Now an organized resistance wants change. They're willing to fight for it and they've asked Marcus Battle to help.

The last thing Battle wants is another war. But if that's what it takes to gain freedom and safe passage to the other side of the wall, he'll take aim and fire.

There should be a rating...

Post-apocalyptic novels tend to have one of a couple of flavours: the isolated but highly trained army/marine/Delta force/SEAL that strikes out on his own to “make things right” (usually with a chip on his shoulder from a near-perfect wife dying or disappearing), or they follow a religious bent or they try do none of this and incorporate regular folk that just happen to be preppers or have some sort of specialized knowledge that coincidentally helps them survive when everything goes to hell.

This novel, unfortunately, has the emotionally wounded military guy with generous dollops of religion routinely thrown in, just so you don’t forget that God is still around. It’s off-putting. I do not need or want a religious lecture while listening to a novel.

Worth listening to

Although the story is a bit predictable, the three books were still very entertaining. Worth listening to.

Decent listen all around.

Something a little different for apocalypse junkies like myself. Narration and story kept me involved!

Uncanny how similar the story is to current events

Great series with any Uncanny resemblance to current times. The Scurge is bad but people are worse. The character development is beautiful and well paced. Battle is a one man army and it was very pleasing to see his response to every obstacle in his way. Definietly would recommend

It was kinda lame.

The book started out pretty good but by the time I completed the first book in the series it lost me. It was predictable and while it was decently well written the Cartel characters were laughable. Several details like the 20’ wall of guns in his barn were stupid. And then he just leaves it all behind, never to return. Lame maybe 3 stars is too high. 2.5

great performance - okay story

I was looking for a dystopian book and this seemed to fit the needs - and largely it didn't disappoint. The environments were well managed and the main characters reasonably well developed - but there was something lacking in the development of the secondary characters. For the length of this trilogy, I believe it would have been a good investment of story time to build depth in the secondary narratives and better support the multiple storylines. All in all I definitely have no regrets about the choice and would seek more books by this author in the future.
