Publisher's summary

After losing everything in a bitter divorce, Peter retreats to a secluded cabin in the Catskill Mountains, where he is trapped by earthquakes and months of unrelenting snow. Just as he is convinced he is the only survivor of a mysterious global cataclysm, he meets a woman seeking refuge from a past she won't reveal.

Her arrival rescues him from unbearable isolation, but when the snow finally stops and her secret catches up with her, Peter is forced to choose between saving her life and following his conscience.

His decision sends them running for their lives and searching for answers as the melting snow reveals a world unlike anything anyone has ever seen. Together they will learn not only what caused the greatest disaster in the planet's history, but that the worst may be yet to come.

Ice Fall

I loved it!The snow is piling up and no onw knows exactly what happened to the world.When it thaws, a new world is waiting to figure out.A lot of adventure.John McLoughlin was a fantastic narrator.I was given this book by the narrator,author or publisher free for an honest review.

Excellent Listen!

This book was outstanding. I really loved the spin the author used in how the world was destroyed. This twist was so different than anything I have read before this. There was something always going on. The narrarator was awsome and just brought everything to life. I felt likeI could see and feel exactly what he was reading. lots if depth and emotion used. Great book to add to your collection.

Exciting end of world story

This book is about an event that has occurred. An English professor is caught at his mountain cabin. and is going crazy from isolation when a young girl comes into his life. There is then adventures as he and the girl venture forth from his cabin after the snow stops and it is possible to leave.

The adventures bring them into a situation where they rescue a group of people which leads them to further adventure and ultimately to a trip to save the world from total destruction.

The personal relations that develop and the interactions build up well and are done very well.

The story line is exceptional and the author does excellent work putting a story line together that keeps your attention all the way through.

The narration is absolutely great. Truly enjoyable.

This book was provided free of charge with the expectation of an honest review.

Loved it!

Excellent post-apocalyptic book! Something happened that caused a global catastrophe. There were earthquakes, months of snowfall, and severe flooding with sea levels rising over 400 feet! This may sound like something similar to Water World, but I assure you, it isn't. I'd definitely like to check out more by this author. Excellent narration by John McLoughlin!

100% Recommend

I love this audiobook! The writing was captivating, the characters were believable, and I cared about them. The plot had so many twists and turns that I couldn’t put my phone down. everyone should read it.

Loved this book!

I've never read anything post apocalyptic before this book but now I'm hooked! Loved the story and would sneak a listen every chance I got. I just wish it would've been longer!

Thought provoking

Entertaining in the fact that it is a different post-apocalyptic scenario than I've usually read/listened to. I'm not particularly good at writing reviews, but really needed to praise this story. I like the way it worked out in the end, and while it would be entertaining to revisit this new world to watch it's progress, it leaves us with a satisfying ending. I enjoyed the narrator's voice also. Heading off to check out more of this author's work :)

hard to put down

i already read this on kindle a while back and loved it, but it's better now cuz i don't have to look at words..
nice post-apoc fiction with a scenario that i don't think i've seen the genre touch on all that often(nice break from the nukes and zombie outbreaks). plenty of action, romance, heroics, tension and all that keeps a good story going, while still keeping it down to earth at a halfway mellow pace, which helps extraordinary situations stay believable and gives a chance to relate to the characters.

i hadn't heard a John McLoughlin narration before this, but i think he's made it into my very short list of narrators i enjoy listening to. good performance and sound.

Good book

I enjoyed this book it. Well written and progressed well never jumped around stayed on one character and flowed.

Excellent Read!

This is a genre that has a great many works that fail to meet even a basic standard of literary quality.
Ice Fall meets and surpasses any standard. The writing is eloquent and yet highly engaging. The characters fight their individual demons while the story moves forward in a believable manner. Many books in the post-apocalyptic arena require the reader to exercise their suspension of reality skills to such a a degree that the story becomes disengaging and then tedious to continue. This does not.
The characters are well defined in Ice Fall and the reader is constantly being drawn into their world. The story line is well-thought out and explained brilliantly.
Amazing book and I look forward to many more from this author!
