Reset

After the Pulse, Book 1

By: Mark Tufo

Narrated by: Vikas Adam

In a world reduced to ruins, survival demands more than just strength—it demands transformation.

When a catastrophic electromagnetic pulse (EMP) strikes Earth, modern life ends in an instant. Power grids fail. Communication collapses. Transportation halts. Within hours, the world descends into chaos—and the fragile threads of civilization begin to snap. What follows is a rapid descent into apocalyptic turmoil as society unravels and survival becomes a daily battle.

When the world falls apart, it's not the heroes who rise—it's the unexpected. Marty, a recovering addict, finds purpose in the remnants of a crumbling military, discovering what it truly means to fight—not just for survival, but for redemption. Benny and Becky, inseparable pre-teens suddenly orphaned, must navigate a brutal new reality where trust is scarce and innocence is a liability. And Al, facing a terminal diagnosis, embarks on one final journey—teaming up with Sophie, a young woman desperate to reunite with the family she’s lost.

Each must draw on hidden strengths and confront impossible choices as they face a world that offers no guarantees—only the hope that somewhere in the wreckage, humanity still endures.

Deprived of the technology we depend on daily; the elements of civilization will collapse like dominoes giving rise to a brutal, desperate landscape where people will be forced to make impossible choices. Together, they face a landscape stripped of mercy, where technology is useless, morality is tested, and the fight to stay human may be the hardest challenge of all.

Reset is a raw, riveting journey of resilience, unlikely bonds, and what endures when everything else falls away. From the author of Zombie Fallout and Indian Hill, Reset is a gripping tale of human resilience and connection in a darkly unrecognizable and unforgiving new world!

Amazing start to a new series

Wow! He just started an amazing series. I couldn’t stop listening. The narrator did an amazing job as well. The perfect fit for the perfect story. I can’t wait for the next book in the series to hit Audible!

Already hooked.

Mark Tufo did it again! Stick with this one, I have a feeling it’s gonna be epic! Definitely worth a listen!

Different for Mark, but still great!

I love Mark Tufo. This hook didnt dissapoint, but I will say that it was hard to get into at first. That was mostly due to my expectations of Sean narrating. My fault. after I got over that, it was a good read. I will read the rest in the series. I can't wait to see where it goes!

Tufo does it again!!

Once again, Mark Tufo proves why he is, to so many, their favorite author. Just when you think a story is going one way he makes a left turn at Albuquerque improves. Nothing is what it seems. Well done Mr. Tufo. Well done.
