Summary
Small town reporter Mia Durante finds herself having brunch with the President of the United States on the day civilization comes to an end.
An electromagnetic pulse blinds the U.S. Cars crash. Planes fall. Chaos reigns. Power is restored within minutes, but it’s already too late. Russian nukes are falling. U.S. allies around the world are already wiped out. The United States will cease to exist inside of five minutes.
After giving the order to launch a full-scale retaliation–dooming the planet–the president, his staff, Secret Service and those lucky enough to be visiting the White House, are whisked below ground, where they board several Earth Escape Pods. As the EEPs launch into Earth orbit, missiles descend.
Less than forty survive the end of the world. When they return, they’re greeted by survivors of a different sort. The bloodbath that follows leaves Durante and nine other survivors on the run. They find themselves fighting for survival in a world in which only torment remains and where death is the only escape.
Torment is award-winning author Jeremy Robinson’s first pulse-pounding horror novel (originally penned under his Jeremy Bishop pseudonym). It's a horrific tale of post-apocalyptic terror that is one part zombie story and one part Dante’s Inferno. The story asks hard questions and generates strong emotions in everyone who listens to it—anger, excitement, and most of all: fear. This book asks the question that everyone is afraid to answer: are you ready?

Amazing!
Shook me to the core 😅
This is a scary, sad, exciting, well written and narrated thriller.
The ending was great.

A good book.
A good book, not great, not poor. It had some promising moments but was a little samey samey after a while. Very well narrated again by Mr RC Bray, and a deep plot/story line, so overall a must read/listen!

Has no real value to the series; a basic horror.
I listened coming from infinite and others in the series, and felt this was too far into horror for my tastes. I'm completing the Robinson series with its 3 converging arcs, I only pushed through for this reason and not enjoyment of the story. it's well written, brilliantly performed, but really doesn't feel like it belonged in a line with infinite, or in a series with exo hunter, the others, etc. it just feels less refined, more senseless horror; emotionally inciting writing with no actual purpose or fulfilling broadness about it. I also feel it's not essential reading for the series from what I can tell, I honestly wish I'd skipped it. Great book if it's right for you, but I was brought to it from the wrong angle by it being shoe horned into the series.

Refreshing take on old themes.
I spoiled it for myself somewhat due to infinite series, but it still had a bunch of disturbing surprises in it.
I'm not typically a fan of any kinda zombie horror. It's all been done to death. But I really enjoyed this refreshing take on it all the same.
I don't understand why anyone would give this 1 star.
The ending was perfection.

outstanding...
I didn't read ifirst time round so can't comment on the narration, but obviously the story is the same ...gripping from the start with an unusual understated narration from 'THE KING'...he deserves his ferrari, penthouse and 10 million in the bank...
anyone who gives this 1 star is deaf...
I highly recommend ROBOT GENETICISTS...(6 books for 1 credit)

what a ride!
I literally love Jeremy Robinson, I have been devouring his books for the last 6 months, And the narration by R.C. Bray as always is phenomenal.
TORMEMENT is brilliant, anyone that says otherwise obviously struggled the different themes of the book. I'm currently reading the infinite time line and this book definitely needed to be re-released as the tormented feature so often. Bring on Khaos!

Where’s the explanation?!
!!!SPOILER ALERT!!!
This book is great, I really enjoyed it from the beginning to… about the last few minutes. The idea of a zombie apocalypse is always a good way to get my attention, especially with the classic combination of JR and RCB.
The story starts quite ambiguously with what should have been complete nuclear fallout turning out to be nothing more than a bit of lightning. Then the undead arrive, ok, zombies! Wait… these aren’t zombies… they don’t die at all and they talk and seem to have consciousness. “Ok, just go with it” I say to myself. So I did, waiting for the big reveal at the end as to what happened and why these undead creatures are manifesting and how the nuclear war did not destroy the world. Oh and how some previously dead people have been resurrected as undead.
1hr left: here we go, there’s two left, then Austin gets it and there’s one left. Then Garborinho turns up and there’s two again. Then Mia has some sort of vision of heaven but snaps out of it and Garborinho dies. Then Mia dies and ends with her coming back as the dead. That’s it. Done. No explanation as to why the people are these undead hybrid things, no explanation as to why the Earth was not destroyed in nuclear war. Nothing about how Henry Masters was resurrected as the unstoppable killing machine. Hell on earth is mentioned but very vague and not confirmed.
I feel very let down by the end of what was a really good story. If anyone reading this can explain what on earth happened then I’d really appreciate it!

Basic horror, well narrated
I didn’t particularly enjoy this book, as horror goes it’s ok and nothing more but I’m committed to making it through all of JRs work as I’ve enjoyed most of the rest. I see where it fits but it didn’t do it for me at all.
Narration on point as always with R C Bray, I wouldn’t have finished this in print.
