Story3.5 out of 5 stars 25
The United States is now a lawless, scantly populated wasteland. Across the country, families have packed up their belongings to travel eastward toward the one hope left: passage on a ship to Europe. Franklin Lopez and his brother, Jackson, are only days away from the ocean when Franklin, nearly crippled by an inflamed knee, is forced to stop. Franklin comes upon an isolated stone building. Inside he finds Margaret, a woman with a deadly infection and confined to the Pesthouse to sweat out her fever.

Reviewed: 02-10-08
This is the first audio book I have not cared for. The premise is sound but the storyline is tiring.
I had to force myself to stick with this one. If your interested in this genre I suggest The Road by Cormac Mcarthy
