Every time I listen to this, the cyber stuff becomes scarier and scarier. Did you install a flux capacitor in your gold plated hovercraft?

What do you know that we don't?

I just like to think the worst of people. I'm rarely disappointed.

It doesn't bother me that you killed everyone. It's actually somewhat comforting.

You survived. You’re in space fighting Nazis now.

How do I buy the 'End of Days' series in epub format? I don't use Kindle, I don't use Audible - so what can I do? Googling brings no answers - can anyone help me?

Dave, I’m just fixing some typos and shit in the earlier two books then it’ll drop as a single volume on all the platforms. Maybe two weeks. I hate typos.

John, Ta for quick reply, much appreciated. Look forward to reading soon - Dave

I discovered these on KU about a week ago and have nearly finished book 2. A really diverting read. A bit triggering for anxiety so close to Covid days....but enough time has passed that I will survive. Highly recommend.

Done, I hope there are enough explosions......hmmm but what would be enough?

Too many SPLOSIONS are barely enough, Pete.

This was (is) a great series. I listened on Audible, but maybe it's time to get the written word. Pretty sweet. And a big thanks for the mention!

Always with the paperbacks for me until recently when I started reading epubs on my iPad. Is there one of those for the end of the world?

Such a legend. Charged up the kindle and grabbed it already. Good to hear you did an extra proof read to weed out spelling and grammar badness.

Apocalypsey stuff was kinda hard to read during lockdown. Between JB, Steven King (The Stand), and (Mandell) Station 11 - but I’m ready for book 3 now.

This series is joint top of my scariest things ever read. By a wide margin. Because it’s possible. Or at least comes across as so.

(Joint with Doomsday machine: confessions of a nuclear war planner by Daniel Ellsberg)

Am I going to be able to buy the book without using Amazon?

FWIW the audible versions are excellent quality and it's a great story. You know what would make them better? If I could get the the excellent Cruel Stars on audible as well! How GREAT would that be?! My partner reads all day for work... and at night she just wants to listen to Cruel Stars. C'mon... get crackin'
