Publisher's Summary
Prepare for a cruise like no other.
When an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) strikes Rose of the Sea, the pleasure cruise becomes a drifting nightmare. Powerless and desperate, the 1,100 passengers and crew must face their new reality: No one is coming to save them.
The first mate. The EMP destroys the captain's pacemaker, killing him in a heartbeat and Gunner McCrae is thrust into the top position. But no amount of training could prepare him for the savagery of desperate humans and an unforgiving ocean.
The anchor-woman. Gabrielle Kinsella should be reporting on the headline of the century. Instead she's fighting for her children's lives.
The acrobat. Held captive by a predator as a child, Madeline Jewel found freedom as the ship's acrobatic dancer. But being trapped in an elevator brings her worst fears back to life.
The gambler. Zon Woodrow won his ticket to the cruise in a poker match. With the ship's security system obliterated, Zon turns his attention to the casino's vault. And this time, the house won't win.
As resources dwindle aboard Rose of the Sea, the body count continues to rise. Will ordinary people survive an extraordinary disaster? Or will they drown in darkness?

Trapped on a Cruise liner
Loved it, great narration, with well thought out characters and a very engaging storyline about people trapped on a cruise liner after possible apocalyptical events.

Loved it!
Good variation on the world of post apocalyptic novels.
The narration takes a little bit to get use to but it does grow on you. Great book and well presented.

Had me in the first 5 minutes.
I just wanted to keep listening to this book!
It is scary to think an EMP strike could actually happen and I think it would make a great movie.
I have been on lots of cruises and I could imagine all the characters being on the ship Rose of the sea.
This was a great book and would recommend it to anyone.

The location
The overall idea is very interesting however, the characters are a little too much. There is more thinking and pondering than could possibly be done during some of the high action sequences. At other times parts of the story seem skipped ahead without proper explanation. I’m not sure I believe how separated one section of the ship becomes. Cruise ships have so many routes that lead to each section. I didn’t enjoy it enough to buy the next in the series.

Bit of a mess
So many plot holes and lack of technical detail. Why did the rear of the ship (yes, 30,000 tonnes is a ship and not a boat) need to constantly be referred to as the back? Are readers too stupid to understand “stern” or “aft”?
I laughed out loud at how poorly written some of this was, and yet I thought the plot and some of the characters were interesting.
