Publisher's Summary

Don’t call him Ishmael. Or do; he really doesn’t care. Just don’t call him Fred.

No matter what you call him, though, he has a problem. Well, several of them. Ishmael - for want of a better name - woke up in a world that had changed. The Corporations - the wielders of power in a society not long from now - brought about the end of civilization as we know it, nuking each other to the point where it collapsed.

Ishmael doesn’t know any of this, though; in fact, he doesn’t know anything about himself when he wakes up in this shattered world. All of his autobiographical and episodic memories are gone, and along with them, any knowledge of who he was or anything in his past.

Worse, he has made enemies of some very important people, and they are after him. They are armed and he is alone and in...well, he doesn’t know where he is, either.

Can Ishmael stay alive long enough to recover his memories - to find out who he is and how he fits - or will he be just another casualty of This Fallen World?

Don't call me Fred

Great Narration!
The story tents to technicalities of violence over character development.
All the acts tend to just end not necessarily complete the storyline.
But all in still a fun ride for an audio book maybe less so I print.

Excellent!

This is a first for me. I normally like a clear, precise story line, but this has been so much fun! Two books in and I will definitely be trying #3. Fantastic narration and just a great story. Well done!

Good enough for government work

Over all, I quite liked the book. It wasn’t anything ground breaking but it was a good listen. My biggest issue was the ending of each chapter with the “in this fallen world” line. I found it super distracting and unnecessary. Didn’t become super attached to any characters but I would like to see what happens with a few of them so I’ll probably read the next book and see what happens.
