Hell lies under the Texas-Mexico Border. When the Acuña Cartel tunnels under the Rio Grande and into the United States, they tap into a vast cavern that’s home to a species that was once thought mythical. The massacre that ensues leaves 12 men dead and brings tunnel construction to a standstill. Losing money by the hour, the cartel pulls Captain Jarrett Taylor out of retirement to lead a band of mercenaries under the Earth to eliminate an animal more savage than any human force they’ve ever faced. The mission quickly goes bad and plunges the team into a desperate battle for survival.

Story
In a harsh world where survivors live off the scraps of the fallen civilization, Yun-mi had worked her ass off for two years, honing her scavenger skills. She is on the cusp of fulfilling her dreams of becoming the finest Rat the City has seen. Yun-mi's plans crumble when her mentor is murdered, and she is about to be sold to slavers. In the no-holds-barred game, she's got only one rule: not to give up, and woe to those facing a cornered Rat. Navigating alone between major powers, arrogant clans, and fake friends, she may lack knowledge and finesse, but has determination to spare.

Years after the outbreak of a mysterious pandemic, hardly any survivors are left in the quarantined wasteland of North America. Hunger and the menace of man-eaters are nothing compared to the ferals–those who were infected and mutated by the virus. The ferals have an unquenchable need to hunt and kill, and even a single bite will quickly transform human into a rabid beast. Two survivors, the pregnant Megan and her brother David, leave a deserted colony to seek a safer haven.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Story
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Story
Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Story
Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

A harrowing, poignant beginning
Received as an audio review copy provided by the author, this is an honest review. Wonderfully narrated by Julie Branc, Awakened is a beautiful, harrowing story of survival for the unfortunate souls that encounter dangerous and deadly creatures armed with murderous talons and teeth and out for blood... that just happened to show up when the power suddenly disappears. Some of the people we follow were already facing personal crisis: a mother desperate to save her and her children from a abusive husband before a creature upends their dark reality; a woman having an affair with a guy as they share a vacation on Hawaii and being on a plane not the best of places to be when there's no power and now surviving on dark ocean waters. From visceral circumstances, people rise to show the best and worst of humanity when the world is altered in a way no one really understands.
Highly recommended.

It was good
It was a great story. My only issue was the constant back-and-forth between the different characters lives. This made it hard to understand sometimes what was going on.

story of survival
It does go back and forth with characters but that keeps it interesting! But it did end with you wondering who survives and what happens next!

Fantastic!
It is rare that I find a book that keeps me listening, or thinking about when I can get back to listening when I'm not, but this one did it. Throughout the story, I became embroiled in the lives the author presented to us in the apocalyptic story making me feel so many emotions. There are so many authors that depict this possibility of an emp, zombies, war...but prehistoric aliens? This is a new one for me and I am impressed!
M.A. Hollstein paints a story of horrific creatures on the hunt and the humans are the hunted. Be warned there are some chilling scenes that will stay with you long after you have finish the story!
The characters are each believable and their interactions with each other are, as well. I want to know what is going to happen and how are they going to get away? How are they going to get to their families? Are their families still alive? I have so many questions I need answered!
This is the first I have heard from this narrator and I enjoyed her story telling very much. Julie Branc did a fantastic job of telling the story and not just reading it. By her 'becoming' each character and she helped to make them more believable for me. She did an outstanding job of holding my interest as she brought my heart to my throat by giving me the visual of the bloody scenes the author described, as well as the fear, anger, desperation and despair each character was feeling. I enjoyed her many different voices, and, at times I forgot she is the woman speaking as a man.. She gives just the correct amount of roughness to each man just as she gives the softer or hysterical side to each woman or child.
The ending leaves you hanging, but it's rare for an apocalyptic story not to when it is a series. I just want more!

Read somewhere you can yell
I was the crazy lady yelling at the characters like they could hear me. Great short story, there was plenty of action to keep you listening with real life drama in an impossible situation. Looking forward for the next book.

The War for Dominance has Begun
Awakened is a well written book that reminds me of the movie "Riddick" if it was on Earth. Alien creatures have awakened after millions of years with a nlood thirsty vengeance, and we are on the menu. The story is descriptive, suspenseful, frightening, entertaining, and an absolute thrill ride that kept me glued to the end of my seat. The characters are believable, resilient, and well developed. I can't wait to listen to book two because if it's anything like book one, I am in for a wild ride. I highly recommend this book if you love stories that are entertaining and intriguing. I received this book upon my request. I am voluntarily leaving my honest and unbiased opinion here of my own free will.

Great Story!
This is an interesting new take on how humans react in a horrific event.
The characters are believable and the story line is interesting.
The narration is more like a reading than a performance.

Great sart
This got my heart pumping and my blood zinging through my vessels. It was highly suspenseful and totally terrifying the more I listened. Going to binge this series for answers. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest opinion. The narrator did an excellent job bringing the characters and story to life.

AWESOME!!!
WOW really enjoyed listening to Awakened, good good book! Kept my interest (which isn't easy to do lol!) and I listened to it in a few days on my way to/from work. I can't wait to read more by M.A. Hollstein. Definitely recommended!!!
This is an interesting new take on how humans react in a horrific event.

Entertaining
I like the story overall. Fast paced and action packed. There was a little too much swapping between characters for a shorter story. Wish we maybe only followed along with 3 groups. Ends on an interesting cliffhanger.
