Summary

The Sudden Impact started it all....

...and soon the skies would fill with ash.

How would they survive the apocalypse?

Cory’s life was hard. A horrific childhood, bad marriage, and a stint in prison set him on the path. His time in organized crime was miserable, but he had no choice. He did pick up a few skills along the way, though, and just in time for the end-of-the-world.

On a yacht off the California coast....

...he crossed the mob. The tsunami saved his life.

Would he survive the hitmen?

As Cory prepared to make his escape, fate put him in her path. Anna seemed helpless. He had to help, even if she slowed him down. Through all the looting, street gangs, and hysteria, he must find a way to get to his family in Indiana. No power, phones, or communication made things worse. Are they okay?

What is the state of the country?

What’s his next move?

You’ll love this brilliant start to the Brink of Extension series, because the stage is set for an epic adventure of survival.

Sudden Impact is a gripping post-apocalyptic thriller featuring flawed, complex characters and riveting action. A disaster/survival series perfect for fans of Ryan Schow, Grace Hamilton, Harley Tate, Jack Hunt, Boyd Craven, and Kyla Stone.

Thrilling!

Sudden Impact is a well-written, well-plotted, fast-paced, action-packed post-apocalyptic tale. The storyline is definitely different and unique for the genre, which I found refreshing. There are numerous characters, and all are nicely developed and fit well into their roles. Quite a bit happens under seven hours, and Derek Shupert did a fantastic job with the scene transitions and creating drama, a sense of urgency, and excitement. I'm definitely looking forward to the next installment.

S.W. Salzman is an outstanding narrator. He is very versatile and can shift from one character to another smoothly. He did a fantastic job with emulating the intensity and making the story more engaging for us listeners. All in all, Sudden Impact was a unique and thrilling listen, one I'll recommend.
