Come Together

Volume 1

By: Sandra Rains DeBusk

Narrated by: Thomas Conder

The song, Come Together, played constantly for a whole day and night on the radio. Suddenly, the newscaster interrupted, and made an announcement that would send chills down my spine. "Listen up people, we are being attacked - not by someone, but by something! Run people, run and hide!" Then he was gone, and we were all on our own.

loved it!

I really love every book Sandra writes. They really put me in mind of Goosebumps!

Scary and believable

This audiobook tells the story of a world suddenly rocked by alien invasion, and the aliens are not here to negotiate. It centers around a typical American family and it's all the more convincing because it seems to walk through what such a thing would be like fairly realistically--I could imagine how frightening it would be if this happened in my neighborhood. There were a couple of times I couldn't quite keep track of minor details, but it was still a good story overall--that might have just been the distractions I get on my commute.

It's weird - the Beatles' "Come Together" was apparently an influence to the author and a theme to the book, but I kept thinking of the song "The Warning" by Nine Inch Nails - this had that kind of creepy feel to it.

Thomas Conder has an easy narrative style - his voice smoothly tells the story, with slight inflections to help me hear the different character voices, and he keeps the pace nice and even. It makes it easier to take in because he doesn't get caught up in the action and start reading faster. I like that. His voice also sounded really clear in my car on the highway, so the sound quality was really good.

Aliens!

This is SRDs first book if I'm correct. Good book and captures the realism in a situation such as this one.

Best book I've read in a long time! Recommend!

I absolutely love it!
Sandra, screw the haters! This book is so well put together! I love love love it. I'm actually going to listen to it before work today.
It is so intriguing and keeps you on your toes.

Please keep doing what you're doing and never stop.

Besides the book, I love the kind of author you are.
I've looked you up and you're pretty well known. I met you in person once and you are the kindest soul. I hope people who read your books or listen to your books really tune into your personality and creativity behind the words you write. You are one of a kind.

This was not a very good book.

I thought the whole thing was written by a high schooler. Plot was very weak as was the narrative in my opinion.
