Escaping the Game

By: Ross Carson

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Colton Winchester grew up being everything that his father wanted him to be. He was forced to put aside his interest in the outdoors and becoming a prepper just to satisfy his father’s desire to raise a son with the proper credentials to become a wealthy professional. Left with little choice as a boy, Colton decided to become what his father wanted by excelling in sports and academics. He was able to secure a scholarship to Yale where he checked all the right boxes to be invited into the Skull and Bones Society. After graduating law school, Colton secured a job as a corporate attorney for an independent oil company in Houston, Texas. The job was an easy one that paid very well, but Colton was still living a lie. After volunteering to take the fall for someone else’s mistake, Colton saved the oil company from certain bankruptcy while managing to find a golden parachute for himself. Colton meets the girl of his dreams in an authentic Texas cowgirl named Harper. Together, the two build themselves a modern cabin with a full-blown prepper set up. After a cyber-attack of epic proportions, the two are forced to defend their homestead until they have no choice but to flee to the west Texas ranch where Harper was raised; there to join up with her family and find security.

I really like this authors works.

This was a very nice story, but I like all of his. I also like the virtual voice even though there are a few mistakes in pronunciation from time to time they can be interesting. Not the authors fault either. I have the feeling, being too old to remember each story clearly that this just might be my favorite. I'll probably keep it and listen to it again. A lot of his characters in other books are electrical engineers some in the Navy at Crane in Southern Indiana. I spent four happy summers with my Grandparents near there making the books more personal.
