Angus James has played many roles in his life, but none have prepared him for the one he now finds himself in. Alone for too long, traveling the wastelands of what was once the United States, he’s all but given up hope of ever seeing another living person.

Then, he finds her.

Naya is a tough and resilient kid, but she’s alone in a world full of creatures intent on wiping out what’s left of the human race, and Angus knows it’s up to him to keep her safe. And for once in his life, he’s determined to get something right.

Battling nightmarish creatures, feral animals, harsh conditions, and even their own demons, Angus and Naya must work together if they want to survive. But being with another person after years on his own brings up painful memories Angus had thought were long forgotten, making the journey as heartbreaking as it is treacherous. It gives him something else as well, though. Hope. And that’s something he never thought he’d have again.

I absolutely love the story but was. disappointed in narrator's voice of the characters, that was very hard to listen to. Kate L Mary did not disappoint as usual.

Angus (Broken World #8) was a great read by Kate L. Mary. Angus has often been referred to as brother, asshole, survivor, savior, prisoner, and god. None of those roles could have prepared him for the role he finds himself in now. He has traveled the wastelands alone and has all but given up hope of ever seeing another living person. Then he finds Naya, a tough and resilient kid. She's alone in this world full of creatures that want to wipe out the human race. Angus knows he must keep her safe and he's determined to get it right. They must work together to survive these nightmarish creatures. Being with Naya brings up painful memories that Angus thought he had forgotten. I enjoyed reading this book and can't wait to read more by the author.

Great Read

The narrator was perfect for Angus. I've gone thru Broken World, Twisted and Oklahoma series and ANGUS finishes it for me. Loved Broken World but then it started to get YA in the next two series. There's only so much quivering at the sight of someone I can take. I loved the more mature relationships in Broken World even with the unneeded lovemaking descriptions. So I am ending here not going into the FAR series or heavens forbid the Broken World romance novels. These series were my escape during a trying time. Not a happy ending but an ending that makes sense to me.

Series end for me, not going into the FAR series

A wonderful ending to an epic tale and one heck of a character. Angus, who was the guy I despised at the beginning, stole my heart with his wit, his valor, and most of all, his love. He is the modern martyr. Thank you Kate, for giving us such a powerful character to love and root for and cry for. As always, you are a word goddess.

A wonderful ending

Angus James has lived a long life, got up close and personal with death many a time, and managed to survive. Alone for years now, Angus has lost hope. Further, he finds himself struggling with being in the company of a young girl named Naya. Naya lost her mother to a zombie bite and now Angus is responsible for her and her for him. Together they seek safety, but Angus is not sure he will survive being in the presence of another living human as Naya’s presence is dredging up memories he had buried long ago, memories of his wives, his daughter, friends, and more. For Angus, he’s not sure if a zombie or his memories will kill him first!

Kate Mary, the author, has created a life and a world for Angus to inhabit, and while this is book eight, it can be read as a stand-alone. She carefully fills in enough detail of Angus’ backstory that the memories tormenting Angus are complete and understandable. We can not only understand his grief and angst but feel it as well. We are shown his humanity and ability to hope which Angus does not even realize exists within him. I enjoyed this story about Angus and will most likely check out the rest of the series. Mary is a creative storyteller weaving details and emotions throughout this book.

The narrator, J J Hosenfeld gives Angus a strong yet weary unique voice that helps keep the listener hooked. His other voices are well-done for Naya and others, but it is the voice of Angus that is mesmerizing allowing the listener to feel his tiredness, his experiences, and his age.

This is a reflective book with zombies that is a must listen!

Angus had been plodding across the countryside for decades, south in the winter, north in the summer. He had met survivor after survivor, appreciating the company until each of them passed away, and he moved on. As an immune long-term survivor, medical science {CDC} apprehended him, experimenting on him for twenty years until his escape. The CDC, through their experimentation, had physically changed Angus. The most noticeable change was that his wounds healed very quickly; there may be other effects. Now, he had not seen another living soul for years. Angus was lonely and depressed with many regrets. There was nothing else for him to do but move on; one more day. Until Naya, a young, dark-haired girl of fourteen standing before him. Much of the story detailed the background of Angus, highlighting his brother Axel and wife Viviann, his ex-wife Parv, and his daughter Glitter. Angus recounted many, many flashbacks, some for his introspection, some for Naya. The friendship with Naya became a relationship and they depended upon each other. It’s a beautiful story about change, understanding, self-examination, and sadness; so much sadness. It’s a bit slow at times but I just kept listening while thinking about how certain things related to my life. The past is full of memories, lost family, friends, and lovers. All that’s missing for me are new friends and lovers. Thanks for the tale, Kate. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Long lost friends and lovers!
