About this ebook

Three years ago today the comet was sighted and the world started to fall apart.

Surrounded on all sides by factions he knows he can't trust, Baptiste fights to keep his ever-dwindling crew of survivors alive, while wondering what's become of his wife and daughter in the fallen city of Toronto. When a violent and vindictive gang demands more than Baptiste can give, he realizes that the only path to safety means risking everything he has left.

    I had really thought that I would enjoy this book. I found it very hard to keep reading, it failed to keep my interest. I also found that it was very forgettable. I felt that I had to endure long drawn out and dry descriptions.

    I had a strange reaction to this book, and as such, this will be a strange review. I liked it, but disliked pretty much everyone in it - not that that should be the deciding factor, but it is a rarity for me. Baptiste is one strange duck (if I wasn't reading his journal entries, I would not have pegged him for survival as he is a singularly poor judge of character and should have a trail of newborns and toddlers in his wake), Sara is oddly motivated (and frankly, a punching bag), Fiona is deified, and Lisa and Graham (probably the two I'd want in my post-apocalyptic corner) blindly defer to Baptiste's mediocre judgement until it looks like suicide to continue. Ant, who is dead before the opening pages, is by far the character with the most genuine voice and someone I wish we could have gotten to know other than from his posthumous journal excerpts. Perhaps it is a post-apocalyptic plot device - a lot happens and yet nothing happens - which leaves the reader in limbo, but also only somewhat fulfilled. Regardless, I did enjoy reading ATFWO:Coyote and look forward to the next installment. Thumbs up for pop culture references (greats for signaling the time-stop of the apocalypse) and geography of remote Canadian wilderness.

    This was one of the longer books I've read but my disappointment was the fact that I was thrown in the middle of the story. The Author eluded to previous events in the past but never went on to tell about them. The book was well-written but I really wanted to know more about how this all started and how these people got together. I feel he spent too much time on one character. All the characters are interesting but you really don't know anything about them.

    I was given this book in exchange for an honest review.I enjoyed this book. I really enjoyed how the writer stayed away from the zombie post-apocalyptic invasion storyline. The storyline that was created could be very plausible. A group coming together in the insane time that follows an apocalyptic demise. I look forward to reading more from this author.

    I normally love apocalyptic and post-apocalyptic fiction, but I could not even finish this one. While it is technically well-written (no editing errors or things of that sort), it was boring, boring, boring! I will definitely not be reading the rest of the series.
