Book 1 of 7: The End of Everything

See all formats and editions

At the end of the world. Nick Peterson never expected to be stuck with a bunch of kids. A seventeen-year-old boy shouldn’t be responsible for keeping other people alive. But he didn’t have much choice in the matter. That’s what happens when everyone else dies.

A CIT (counselor in training) at a summer camp high in the Poconos, Nick is left in charge of nine kids and fellow CIT Jenny O’Brien. No big deal. But when the people in charge don’t return Nick and the others slowly learn the truth. No one will ever be returning.

A deadly virus has broken out across the world at the same time. A virus with a 100% fatality rate. Only those who are lucky enough to be on their own will survive. In fact, the last thing you want to come across is someone you don’t know.
Blessed with enough food to last them months, Nick and the others hunker down and try to figure out how to survive in this strange new world. Devising solutions and new ways of doing things to stay alive. But after a winter of starvation, Nick has no choice but to brave former civilization and pray the virus has died away. It is either risk death to get food or die of starvation.

The discovery of a sanctuary on the other side of the country becomes their goal. Loading everyone into a bus, they start their way there. Fighting both the few remaining people, and the elements, to reach safety only to discover it isn’t as safe as they hoped.

The end of everything will change a person. Make them see what is vital and what can get a person killed. But most important, how to lay down the foundations that will give future generations a chance to survive.
If they fail, the universe will forget the human race ever existed.

As a military brat and then twenty-three years in the Coast Guard and eleven years as a civilian working for the Navy. I know how a military mind works. I've tried to take that thought process to my books.

Great characterization
and story. Lots of drama and action. A real page turner. Makes you ask what would I do in this situation?

Lots of potential. Talented. But..Needs an editor. Lots of wrong words and some places where the conversation really needed contractions. But the story and characters were good. And I didn’t find it unrealistic or too dark. Find a good editor. It really hurts the quality of what would be a terrific book. It wasn’t so bad tho that I couldn’t skip over the errors and still enjoy the story. I’ll be reading the next one!

What a wonderful surprise! At first I thought a summer camp of kids was going to be boring.. but it was anything but boring! What a combination of terror, ingenuity & tenderness !

When I started this book…

Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2024

Verified Purchase

…I actually thought I had read it before. I kept going because it was well-written and I didn’t *completely* remember what I was reading and had been through a streak of very poor ones, so why not?

It turns out that it ISN’T the one I thought it was but take note: there is *another* book out there that starts off very, very similarly — that is, kids left alone at a Summer Camp.

As for this one, it is very good, teenagers and pre-teens simply learning how to survive. Great characters — each with their own voices. Requisite bad guys at the end. A very enjoyable read.

I know there are others in the series and I am wondering if they are side stories in the same world or continuations of this group of characters. I am hoping for the latter.

Respectfully,

Good end of the world book for YA

Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2024

I liked the essentials of the book—world is destroyed; group of children survive and thrive.

Spelling is crucial. There were other writing errors, so an editor is desperately needed.

There have been comments about misogyny. Gads. These were children who were grieving over dead family and trying to survive. I’m sure the least of their worries was trying to sort chores correctly. Yes, cross-training is critical, and everyone should wash dishes and cut down trees for wood. But still…children. They’ll figure it all out eventually when a man decides he’s tired of working in the fields and wants a turn cooking or a woman who’s tired of cooking wants to go hunting.

Good story, bad editing

Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2022

Verified Purchase

The book is entertaining and engaging. The story is interesting and the 2 main characters are fairly well developed. Worth the $0.99 that I paid for it. My review here also holds true for "Worth Saving by the same author.

A couple of issues:
1. This author REALLY needs an editor. Far too many errors, e.g., your instead of you're, breaks instead of brakes, and more. I find those sorts of amateurish errors jarring and annoying.
2. Should be categorized as Young Adult.
3. Author shouldn't use an identical device (coconut scent of a girl's shampoo as something interesting to another character) in two different unrelated books. At least change it to some other scent, for pete's sake.

I loved this story from the beginning, as a gal who did summer camp every year and wanted to do CIT it spoke to me. Jenny's character is just who I would hope I could be in that horrific circumstance.

It is written for a younger audience in the vein of The Rule of Three and the Fourth Dimension by Eric Walters. There is a need for a suspension of disbelief but it it makes it that much more endearing.

It was so refreshing to see a different take on this book and I loved the story told from a young adult's side. A great book.

good story but the writing lacked

Reviewed in Canada on April 1, 2023

Dear Author,
You have a good plot, characters, etc. I enjoyed your novel. I hope that you continue writing as you have a gift.
However, you need to understand punctuation- you really do. Not everything needs to end with a period and that especially includes incomplete sentences.

Loved the story and the pace, would have appreciated deeper points of view, and the editing/proofing leaves a lot to be desired.
