About this listen
When four recent high school graduates return home from a weekend of camping, they expect to go back to life as usual. Instead, the boys discover empty streets, abandoned cars, and utter silence - everyone has disappeared. As the friends attempt to solve the mystery, they stumble upon more questions than answers. Why won’t the electronics work? Where did the wind go? What do the notebooks full of gibberish mean? With each new discovery, they learn that nothing was ever quite what it seemed on Echo Island and that a deep secret is drawing them in - if only they would surrender to it.
Join Bradley, Jason, Archer, and Tim on this exploration into myth and mystery. Uncover exactly what happened on Echo Island and what these four friends’ story has to do with God, the meaning of life, and the nature of reality.

Story
In the winter of 1952, New England was battered by the most brutal nor’easter in years. As the weather wreaked havoc on land, the freezing Atlantic became a wind-whipped zone of peril, setting the stage for one of the most heroic rescue stories ever lived. On February 18, while the storm raged, two oil tankers, the Pendleton and the Fort Mercer, were in the same horrifying predicament. Built with “dirty steel,” and not prepared to withstand such ferocious seas, both tankers split in two, leaving the dozens of men on board utterly at the Atlantic’s mercy.

Pretty Good
It got off to a slow start. The voice actors are Ok. I guessed what was going on after a few chapters, but it still held my interest enough to want to hear how the story would develop and end. I'm an adult so I'm not the target demographic for the book. If anyone asked if they should read it, I'd say yes, it's entertaining. Just don't expect Tolkien or C.S. Lewis :-)

I wish this book would receive more attention than it has. It's unlike anything else I've read. M. Night Shyamalan meets C.S. Lewis.

Beyond bad
I should have returned this book as soon as I heard the narrator break into the various characters voices. They are over the top and awful. The writing is obnoxiously flowery - like it’s trying to be deep and meaningful - but it’s really just annoying. The story is self-serving and jumps the shark half way through when it becomes a book about a story within a story. Save yourself six hours and walk away.
