About this listen

 Following a nuclear holocaust, Nathan Taylor and his family face grim choices in order to stay alive. Fleeing deadly radiation, plague and desperate men, Nathan, an army officer, leads his wife and their two teenage sons away from chaos and madness toward his ancestral home in Kentucky. Horrors lie in their path. From the prison struggling to maintain control of its inmates, to the desperadoes who enslave anyone who comes their way, even survival may cost Nathan his humanity...or that of his sons, Joshua and David. Nathan struggles to keep his family intact, but it requires making brutal choices. He wants to protect his sons, but knows they now must be deadly and cold at times. Nathan's home has been spared from the worst of the destruction, but a larger conflict over scarce resources erupts. For the survivors to have any chance they will have to fight and the desperate journey has transformed young Joshua and David into men called upon to lead and sacrifice. Torn between harsh realities, and wanting to hold onto fleeting childhoods, they are often conflicted and angry about the roles thrust upon them. Much will depend on how Nathan and his sons respond to a madman and his military regime seeking to conquer the fledgling community they are helping to build. GLIMMER OF HOPE is an epic tale of one family's endurance and triumph after tomorrow's apocalypse. Fiction Horror Post-Apocalyptic Science Fiction Scary Emotionally Gripping

This is a well-written realistic possible scenario following a nuclear event. The characters are well developed, and the storyline is believeable. -Mr.Bill

Excellent Virtual Presentation

I think this may be a decent story, however, it’s my first AI virtual voice, computer generated audible and I can’t get past the monotone and eerie way she talks. Every time she says “hell,” I gotta laugh. There just isn’t emphasis on words when there should be. I’d almost listen to it again just to hear a PERSON read it… almost.

Overall, it may be a good story

Who came up with the idea that the AI generated voice would have a British accent??? NO ONE in the Southern states says “ahsk” for “ask.” There are many other very bad instances. In one sentence the voice says “no” as if declining coffee but continues “screamed so-and-so.” “Screamed”??? Awful. Just awful.

AI voice is AWFUL!!!
