About this listen

A heart-pounding survival adventure that will keep listeners on the edge of their seat.

When a tragic plane crash leaves 12-year-old Aidan Riley as the sole survivor, he finds himself alone in the unforgiving Alaskan wilderness with nothing but a backpack of basic supplies—and his faith. Facing freezing temperatures, dangerous wildlife, and the crushing weight of grief, Aidan must learn to survive on his own.

As days turn into weeks and winter closes in, he builds shelter, finds food, and even befriends a wild bald eagle. With courage, resourcefulness, and a deepening trust in God, Aidan discovers strength he never knew he had. But will it be enough to stay alive long enough to be rescued?

Alone in the Wild is a gripping story of survival, faith, and the unbreakable spirit of a boy who refuses to give up. Perfect for listeners who love wilderness adventures, survival stories, and inspirational journeys of hope and perseverance.

Gripping stuff. Short but full of emotion Nicholson’s make it a great listen. His tone is steady but intense. It locks you into that frozen isolation and keeps the suspense taut.

A suspenseful read about survival and our human instinct to do whatever it takes to live. I think we all have worried about what happens if a plane crashes, and this is what happens to a child in the middle of the bitter Alaskan wilderness. I appreciate how we follow him along his journey as he tries to stay alive, praying and hoping that someone will find him. A great story overall.
