About this listen

The Rotten Belly Society was an order that existed among some Native Americans tribes of the Great Plains. The members of this society were compelled by powerful visions to devote their lives to being contrarians. In simple terms, they did things backwards for the purpose of educating people on how to behave properly. A similar principle was seen on a popular t-shirt of the 1980s that said, “I’m not useless—I can be used as a bad example.”

Then there's Dan...

The paths we follow through life aren’t always straight. The struggles we face are not always obvious to the people around us. The journey is messy, painful, and we do not escape it alive.

In this final installment in The Way of Dan Series, Dan’s journey home isn’t the only challenge he’s facing. Besides the ever-present danger of traveling across post-apocalyptic America, there are the personal demons that have pursued Dan across the country and across the years.

A part of Dan feels too old and stubborn to change. Another part of him is beginning to understand that change is constant, and the journey only ends if we give up. That is the Way of Dan.

I've enjoyed every installment in the series. This book was no exception.
It further built on the characters of the previous books in the series and added a few new ones.

Great story line

Sad to see this one come to a close as I love “the Way of Dan”. Wasn’t super impressed with this as the last book, maybe because I didn’t want to see it come to and end. The second half of the book seemed rushed and I didn’t feel I got the closure I needed as this series came to an end. I wanted more info on the kids and their saga and wanted to see what was next for Dan as he reintegrated into his community with Holly.

Love the “Way of Dan”.
