Alan is a virgin, but that is not a big problem for him with Tracy and Gwinn desiring his attentions. He has larger concerns on his mind. He is swept into the hidden underground of Midgard, once the shining jewel of enlightenment and technology. The city is regressing back to an unenlightened and vicious age following the end of the world in the Cataclysm.
All that remains is a corrupt governor and self-proclaimed god who rules all with an iron fist, a religious cult planning to dismantle society, and a rebel army who fights against Governor Fredrick. As Alan is pulled into the fighting, he finds it hard to discern friend from foe while desperately trying to find his place in the remnants of society. But when he discovers the secrets behind the Cataclysm, it becomes a struggle to save humanity from itself.
A nontraditional epic fantasy mixed with post-apocalyptic science fiction, this is not the first book of a long, unending series, but a standalone story that possesses everything necessary to enjoy the adventure. It does not contain many of the normal fantasy or science fiction tropes either, leaving this story unique in a field where each book on the surface appears to be the same as the ones before. Endospore is something special, a story unlike any other.

Customer Reviews
So monotone
The book maybe good but after 2 chapters of monotone I had to move on.
Very good book.
Very good audiobook. Good story that will pull you in. High quality audio, which is rare in many free audiobooks. The hero’s character development is strong and moves along nicely. Has enough twist and turns in the story arch to keep from being predictable.
Definitely worth the listen.
Poorly read
Nothing ruins a good audiobook as fast as a poor reading. This is not a good audiobook to begin with. I can't say it's terrible, but not strong enough to overcome the monotone reader not to mention the poor production value. Many errors and retakes left in the final production. I would say you get what you pay for, but podiobooks has given me countless novels and short stories at no charge that have been nothing short of stellar as well as a few that were enjoyable even considering they were done on a shoestring budget. Endospore is one of the books you're bound to come across from time to time that appears to be thrown together with little consideration to the listener. Perhaps its more enjoyable in print, but I won't be taking the time to find out.
