Publisher's summary

He's homeless. He's on the run. And he wants revenge.

Marcus Battle has left behind his home.

Now he's on a seemingly impossible mission to find a missing child. But can he balance that responsibility with his deep, primal desire to exact revenge on the men who destroyed his solitary existence?

The world he discovers on his journey isn't the one he remembers before a pneumonic plague called The Scourge killed two-thirds of the world's population. It is lawless, depraved, and far deadlier than the disease which created it.

Battle made a promise to find that child. It's a promise he regrets more acutely with every step of the journey where he is as much the hunter as he is the hunted.

Great innovation

Would you listen to Canyon again? Why?

Absolutely; he keeps the story interesting, eventful and flowing.

What other book might you compare Canyon to and why?

Hard to say, I listen to lots of these type novels and I always know it was exceptional when I eagerly look for the next volume in the series. This was one of those types.

What about Kevin Pierce’s performance did you like?

I think I would enjoy Kevin Pierce if he was reading the phone book. Just saying; I have done searches just for what he has narrated and only turned one back in. He has that old Disney type folksy voice that people enjoy listening to.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Not really. Just liked the anticipation that he built into to story plot.

Exactly what I'd hoped it would be

This series is a great alternative to post apocalyptic norms. Well worth a listen. I listen to audiobooks while I drive and the narrator does a great job of taking me somewhere else. Kevin's voice is calm and he does a great job of bringing the story to life.

Looking forward to the next book

Alexandra

This was an enjoyable story. Good action and an interesting protagonist. I'd like to see the other characters fleshed out a little more but that will hopefully happen in subsequent books. I would recommend it to like minded friends. My only complaint is that at 7 hours I felt it was too short for its cost

Most survivalist books are in a series

Where does Canyon rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I liked the series main character and narrator.

What did you like best about this story?

A good strong willed person trying to survive diversity and bad humans.

Have you listened to any of Kevin Pierce’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

On par

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

The series system of survivalist stories is a money maker. You end up paying for three books and get one story.

Any additional comments?

They do not tell you when you start listening to first book that you will need to buy full series to find out what happens. So each book has whole sections about nothing ,just filling space, great idea if your the author trying to feed the kids.

Thrilling surprise

Once the story started I couldn't put it down! Normally I only listen to books when going on long drives so it will sometimes take me months to complete a book however, I literally listened to this book 7 hours straight. At first I was irritated when it kept referring back to Syria. I would roll my eyes, kick my feet and flail my arms while screaming at my iPad "WHO CARES WHAT HAPPENED IN SYRIA!!!!" But towards the end the Syria insert was needed to explain his feverish need to protect his home annnnnddddd... GENERAL RUTH!!! Omg, who knew!?! My jaw is still hanging from this book.. love love loved it!
