About this listen
The collapse of civilization has left survivors scattered among a few settlements. Preyed upon by roving bands of sadistic ex-soldiers and forever at the mercy of a natural world that has turned against them, a family is facing their final days. Hope appears in the guise of their young son. Taught by his father to survive at any cost, he is thrust headlong into a battle for the future of humankind.
A Desolate Splendor weaves a stark portrayal of life on the brink of extinction, heralding the rise of an exciting new voice in apocalyptic fiction.

" A Desolate Splendor comes on like a wind-driven fire, gathering momentum with each page. The pace never falters as Jantunen deftly braids together the strands of his story in vivid, immediate detail." (A. J. Somerset, author of Combat Camera)
"John Jantunen has written a fierce, intelligent, and heart-wrenching end-of-days saga." (Craig Davidson)
