First time on audio!

The first audiobook in a post-apocalyptic dystopian queer duology about a battle-hardened recluse fleeing a civilization in ruin and the criminal he takes prisoner, from #1 New York Times bestselling author TJ Klune, now available from Tor Books.

“Narrator Kirt Graves shows remarkable emotional versatility in his depictions of hope, desperation, apathy, and acceptance...This highly emotional audiobook won’t leave listeners dry-eyed.” —Kirkus Reviews on We Burned so Bright (Starred Review)

One hundred years ago, the world ended in a wave of fire.

Now, in the wasteland once known as America, a broken man survives. Purposefully cutting himself off from what remains of civilization, the man named Cavalo resides in the crumbling ruins of the North Idaho Correctional Institution. A mutt called Bad Dog and a robot on the verge of insanity are his only companions. Cavalo himself is deteriorating, his memories rising like ghosts.

It’s not until he makes the dangerous choice of crossing into the irradiated Deadlands that Cavalo comes into contact with a dangerous mute man who belongs to the murderous Dead Rabbits. Taking the man prisoner, Cavalo is forced, not only to face the horrors of his past, but also the horrors of his stark present. And it is in the prisoner that he will find a future with a dark glimmer of possible redemption.

The world has died.

This is the story of its remains.

"[Kirt] Graves brings a steady, thoughtful performance that perfectly matches the novel’s reflective tone... Graves creates an experience that feels intimate and immersive without tipping into sentimentality.” —Booklist on We Burned so Bright (Starred Review)
