About this listen
What do you do when the whole world... stops? When an electromagnetic pulse hits the earth and everything stops working, nothing will ever be the same. No TV, no internet, no cell phones, not even a stinking working car. Who would have thought this could happen in the USA? To outsiders, Andrea Patterson has the American dream house and family. But when the unthinkable happens, the dream looks more like a nightmare - one from which she and her family may not wake up alive. Lexie Martin's homesteading family has never been cool like Andrea's, but they've been prepping for disaster for years. For them, the world didn't stop; it just slowed down. The one thing they didn't prepare for? A desperate school bus driver who will stop at nothing to get what they've got.
Sarah Weaver, friend of Andrea and Lexie, lives on the top floor of a ten-story apartment building. When things went black, she thought it could be romantic, like in the time of Jane Austen. She was wrong. Has the world collapsed forever? Who will survive when technology fails? Told in journal-style prose by three 16 year old girls, Pulse takes listeners into a chilling possible future for Americans while hitting right in the gut with frightening detail. Andrea, Lexie and Sarah bare heart and soul as they share what they encounter after the pulse. As even the U.S. government is concerned about the possibility of a catastrophic EMP, this book is not only timely but compelling.

This new stand-alone survival thriller thrusts the most dynamic city on Earth, New York, into darkness as North America is bludgeoned by the sun's ferocity. Scientists promised a beautiful aurora providing the city that never sleeps with magnificent hues of blue and green. For three days, New Yorkers took to the streets, parks, and rooftops to enjoy the awe-inspiring spectacle. As the power grid failed, the city of New York collapsed with remarkable speed. The thin veneer of civilization was laid bare as man fought one another for survival.

Her name is Odd. Twelve-year-old Audrey Wyatt bears the unfortunate nickname "Odd", a name even her bar-hopping, alcoholic mother uses when she's sober enough to recognize the girl. Cowed by life, Odd doesn't protest, not when she's deformed as she is. Born with a combination of rare birth defects, Odd's eyes are a startling and dreadful red. Demon eyes is the first thought that springs to mind. The little girl takes care to hide them behind dark sunglasses, something her mother insists on, except when she's trading freak-show peeks for dollars or drinks.

With it being an election year, more and more Americans were waking up to the idea that they truly were behind the curve. The hope was if they did not get sick, run out of money, or could avoid violent mobs, they would be fine.

Fourteen-year-old Greg Dixon is living a nightmare. Attending boarding school outside of Boston, he is separated from his family when a pandemic strikes. His classmates and teachers are dead, rotting in a dormitory-turned-morgue steps from his room. The nights are getting colder, and his food has run out. The last message from his father is to get away from the city and to meet at his grandparents' town in remote New Hampshire.

hoping this never happens in my lifetime
Enjoyed listening to this book, sorry to find out the 2nd book in the series is not available on Audible now.
Trying to wrap my mind around the realities of this situation because this book really does paint a bleak but accurate picture of what will happen to our society if we lost electricity. Just the one thing changes everything. and not in a good way. I didn't grow up with all the more modern electronics, video had just come out, we walked everywhere as children or rode bikes. most families had one car. Now without my Mac, iPad, iPhone and internet to connect with the world Im sure Id feel just as lost as these folks did, but it wasn't that that they focused on after a few days it was the lack of resources, food and warmth. that was a wake up call. I liked at the end that a few things were cleared up on the technicalities that didn't make sense.

EMP novel
What I liked and what engaged me as a reader:
• In this book you were drawn in by the need to understand the complex personalities of Andrea, Lexie, and Sara after an EMP hits America. As the story progresses, the more you want to discover more about these characters.
• The story is told through the alternating narration of Andrea, Lexie and Sara.
• The minor players in this novel add depth to the storyline.
• The descriptions of locations and emotions were very well done, easy to visualize, and to feel. I felt a part of the scenes and a part of the post EMP world.
• This book gave me a lot to think about being prepared for emergencies.
• This book is clean and very religious. I enjoyed that fact, but others may not.
• The three narrators were perfect for this novel and did an excellent job.

Glad I listened to the end
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
Yes - glad I listened to it even though it is written toward the teenage audience. Even still, I learned some surprising things about how such an event would most likely unfold on civilization and the brutal day-by-day of trying to cope to such a sudden change. BUT - if you are a liberal, atheist, or a new-age type, this is not your book.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Pulse?
The encounter with the Catholic Priest at the church cemetery.
What about the narrators’s performance did you like?
The first teenage girl's story is believable and almost disgustingly realistic. The author researched his subjects extremely well.
Did Pulse inspire you to do anything?
To get rid of the unessential "stuff" that has somehow collected in my house, in my life, and in my heart. I am motivated to prepare my heart first, then do little things that could ease the pain if such an event did leave us in the dark for a very, very long time. Must stay grounded in love for other people, but don't be a fool.
Any additional comments?
Listen to this story if you are a prepper or just interested in a realistic apocalyptic twist...just be ready for the irritating teen-age girl diatribes.

Pulse Book one
I got this audio-book from Free Audiobook Codes. This website is feast or famine.
This was a feast! Felt real. From 3 young girls POV. I agree with some of the other reviewers. Bible and politics are heavy in the book. That said. The people we are following are into this. That being said, I believe it is necessary to the story line. Set in fiction, you can see how it could happen. Ask yourself, What would I do? Some predictable, some not so much. My only complaint is this is the only book in audible. Would have used a credit for the others. Good job everyone!

THANK YOU JESUS, PRAISE THE LORD!!!!!
What disappointed you about Pulse?
Seriously? 4.3 hours of this novel is bible thumping filler but the rest is a GOOD read. PLEASE...bleep the bad words, I get it; make Moral choices, I get it. But enough of the feckin' Bible Thumping!!!! This cost me a credit, I should have just dropped a $20 in the offerings bowl.
Would you ever listen to anything by L.R. Burkard again?
Not too likely; just TRY to be a little more subtle.... huh?
Have you listened to any of the narrators’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Narrators didn't raise my hair, and I honestly didn't think about them much; which by my standards, is how it should be. Good job.
What character would you cut from Pulse?
Jesus. Just sayi'n.
Any additional comments?
Not really; just ya'll Christians sendin me to hell should know I'm Buddhist.
