About this listen
Includes all three installments of the Refuge Inc. series.
Before the Darkness (Book 1): After an asteroid strikes Earth, a series of violent earthquakes destroy secluded Phoenix and leave survivor Elliot struggling to stay focused in the bleak aftermath. He meets fellow survivor Adam and together they search for reliable shelter and other survivors while distant, murky clouds fast approach. Their hunt for shelter leads them down an alternate path when they find spray painted symbols directing them to a mysterious place: Refuge Inc.
Amid the Darkness (Book 2): Weeks after an asteroid strikes Earth, hurling Elliot and Adam into a fight for their survival, the two take shelter in an underground compound known as Refuge Inc. Shaking their past seems impossible as it comes back to haunt them, weakening the foundation of their relationship. Elliot, hung up on guilt over his former actions, tries to right his wrongs which leads him face-to-face with the troubling secrets of the compound. Adam's run-in with the enigmatic prophet makes him question Refuge Inc. and the survivors' future.
Beyond the Darkness (Book 3): Phoenix - a dark, vast ruin, speckled with sporadic rays of light pushing its way through the dark, dense clouds. Adam and Elliot wander the collapsed city for days before taking shelter at the nearly-standing Arrowhead hospital. Their days are filled with hopes of rescue and a deep need for emotional and mental closeness, until a harsh reality take over their thoughts - their food and supplies are dwindling, and they are in desperate need of assistance and reprieve. They're forced to return to the hellish compound, also known as Refuge Inc.
Warning: Contains explicit male-male sexual practices, graphic language, some violence, and brief descriptions of the dead.

Story
I was 12-years-old when the world ended. For eight years I've survived in this sh*thole once known as Earth, fighting the alien parasite that mutated most of the population into bloodthirsty freaks while the rest of us became the lunch special on their alien menu. Now things are changing, and not for the better. The parasite is evolving, becoming smarter, stronger, and deadlier. They've already stolen everything from me - my home, my family, even the man I loved. It's time for this bullsh*t to end once and for all.

Chemical warfare has obliterated most of the world, including America, and the survivors have turned into feral beasts, save one colony, Antius, the last remnant of civilization. Seventeen-year-old Cori (aka Citizen 1206) only longs for wide open spaces and freedom. But Antius has no use for such things, just mindless drones to serve in a place with walls, fences, and laws - a lot of laws, which Cori constantly breaks.

Audra Copeland is among dozens of newly convicted felons dropped off on the prison planet Rhodon, where she discovers that the women of zone four have a long-standing arrangement with the men. If they hand over six of the new arrivals, the men won't raid. And Audra has just been drafted. She can take her chances on her own, or select a guardian. The deal is simple, if barbaric: sex, in exchange for food and safety from the other 200 men in zone four. It's a terrifying proposal. The men are violent, filthy degenerates. Then Audra sees Tyson at the edge of the crowd.

I'm stumbling around with no memory, no idea who I am, or how I came into existence. I mean, I know my life didn't just start. The pain in my ankle and arm tells me something happened, perhaps something terrible. If only I could remember. This planet is magical or cursed. I'm not sure which. Things appear and disappear before my eyes, terrifying monsters trying to devour me. I'm alone and frightened. And then I stumble upon them: three delicious-looking guys with hard bodies. They strip naked, transforming into powerful animals like prehistoric wolves.

Bad narration
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
however, I'm quitting after listening to about a third of this. I almost never stop without finishing a book, but I just can't go any further.
Take this gem exchange between the two guys:
"We've got to prepare for tomorrow."
"Tomorrow isn't coming."
"Then we've got to live for today."
"You're right. I can't believe I letting this asteroid get to me like this."
Ooooooohhhhh stop.
It listens like a bad soap opera, and the narrator reads the sex episodes like they were lifted right from a cheesy porn flick. In fairness to the narrator, he can only read the words that were written; but he interprets the sex scenes in a way that cause me to giggle and cringe simultaneously.
I hate to mock anyone's work. I'd like to think that all authors put a lot of work into what they do, and that they are proud of it. As a consumer, I want to know what not to waste my time and money on, so I offer this review.
One great thing about Audible, is that I can get my credit back and try something else.
I couldn't stop laughing (in a bad way)
