    The Remnants: Dead Loss

    Written by Jonathan Face

    Narrated by Steve Carlson

    About this audiobook

    The world has ended, the dead walk the earth, and a profound silence has fallen over the land.

    There are no more cars to be heard chugging down the dirt road at the foot of the driveway. There are no more airplanes painting vapor trails across the sky. No more air-conditioners thrumming in windows, no more dogs barking in the distance. The world is getting settled once again.

    Two children, brother and sister, survive together on an isolated Montana farm. Their days are simple - find food, avoid the dead. They are the remnants of civilization, refugees from a vanished world.

    Whispers of a new civilization in the New Mexico desert and a chance encounter with a band of renegade soldiers convinces them to strike out on the open road, to abandon the relative safety of the farm and fall in with strangers.

    But the living may be worse than the dead.

    Part 1 of a continuing series.

      Death

      Mar 1, 2020

      Kids already asleep, the grownups sit out on the deck,a few empty cans, an open bottle of wine on the table, I’m sure, and stacked paper plates with half-eaten buns and dirty napkins.From my backyard next door, I can hear them, the living, chatting.

      When the characters went to rob the bus occupied by the dead. I thought that something terrible would happen and it did but all characters survived the dead . It was the living they had to fear. Well done!
