About this listen
Small town reporter Mia Durante finds herself having brunch with the President of the United States on the day civilization comes to an end.
An electromagnetic pulse blinds the U.S. Cars crash. Planes fall. Chaos reigns. Power is restored within minutes, but it’s already too late. Russian nukes are falling. U.S. allies around the world are already wiped out. The United States will cease to exist inside of five minutes.
After giving the order to launch a full-scale retaliation–dooming the planet–the president, his staff, Secret Service and those lucky enough to be visiting the White House, are whisked below ground, where they board several Earth Escape Pods. As the EEPs launch into Earth orbit, missiles descend.
Less than forty survive the end of the world. When they return, they’re greeted by survivors of a different sort. The bloodbath that follows leaves Durante and nine other survivors on the run. They find themselves fighting for survival in a world in which only torment remains and where death is the only escape.
Torment is award-winning author Jeremy Robinson’s first pulse-pounding horror novel (originally penned under his Jeremy Bishop pseudonym). It's a horrific tale of post-apocalyptic terror that is one part zombie story and one part Dante’s Inferno. The story asks hard questions and generates strong emotions in everyone who listens to it—anger, excitement, and most of all: fear. This book asks the question that everyone is afraid to answer: are you ready?

The Galahad, a faster-than-light spacecraft, carries 50 scientists and engineers on a mission to prepare Kepler 452b, Earth's nearest habitable neighbor at 1400 light years away. With Earth no longer habitable and the Mars colony slowly failing, they are humanity's best hope. After 10 years in a failed cryogenic bed - body asleep, mind awake - William Chanokh's torture comes to an end as the fog clears, the hatch opens, and his friend and fellow hacker, Tom, greets him...by stabbing a screwdriver into his heart. This is the first time William dies.

Story
More than two centuries after World War III poisoned the planet, the final bastion of humanity lives on massive airships circling the globe in search of a habitable area to call home. Aging and outdated, most of the ships plummeted back to Earth long ago. The only thing keeping the two surviving lifeboats in the sky are Hell Divers - men and women who risk their lives by skydiving to the surface to scavenge for parts the ships desperately need.

Story
War heroes aren't usually called out of semi-retirement and sent to the far reaches of the galaxy for a routine investigation. So when Colonel Carl Butler answers the call from an old and powerful friend, he knows it's something big - and he's not being told the whole story. A high councilor's son has gone MIA out of Cappa Base, the space station orbiting a battle-ravaged planet. The young lieutenant had been wounded and evacuated - but there's no record of him having ever arrived at hospital command.

Story
From the Audie-nominated narrator of The Martian. In eleven years' time, a million members of an alien race will arrive at Earth. Years before they enter orbit, their approach will be announced by the flare of a thousand flames in the sky, their ships' huge engines burning hard to slow them from the vast speeds needed to cross interstellar space. These foreboding lights will shine in our night sky like new stars, getting ever brighter until they outshine even the sun, casting ominous shadows and banishing the night until they suddenly blink out.

Story
In 2204, humanity is expanding into the wider galaxy in leaps and bounds. Cutting-edge technology of linked jump gates has rendered most forms of transportation - including starships - virtually obsolete. Every place on Earth, every distant planet humankind has settled, is now a step away from any other. And all seems wonderful - until a crashed alien spaceship of unknown origin is found on a newly located world 89 light-years from Earth, carrying a cargo as strange as it is horrifying. To assess the potential of the threat a high-powered team is dispatched to investigate. But one of them may not be all they seem....

Just didn’t like it.
Just didn’t like it. The start is promising but the last chapters are, to be kind, just my cup of tea. Too much religious connotations.

Don’t be fooled. This DOES fit into the timeline.
I like the way this meshes with the timeline. I waited until I listened to infinite 2 before making this review. Now I’m glad I did. Excellent way to bring it all together.

Easy Recommendation
Torment is easily my favourite horror story. The friggin' G.O.A.T. I tell you. A horrific vision hell that will put the fear of God into you. Great to terrify your kids with!

Oh the Horror
I fell in love with Jeremy's books since Dark. I have need listening to everything I can find from him since then. his books have made me laugh and put me on the edge of my seat with suspense. There are no jokes in this book, this is a balls to the wall thriller ride to the end. I could not stop listening. as much as I miss RC making me laugh, he nailed it with keeping rhe suspense going.
if you like horror, do yourself a favor and listen to this!
Keep'em coming JR, you have a fan for life!

Disturbing... and I loved it!
Jeremy Robinson conjures a frightening world with thought provoking twists on what true Hell is. I'm not sure I understand why this story is so controversial, but perhaps it's because it *is* so disturbing. (And if we're going to be honest, totally plausible on some level.)
R.C. Bray, with his unparalleled voice talent, brings each character uniquely and distinctly to life.
Torment is a helluva roller coaster ride; bring your barf bag if you're cursed with a vivid imagination and an overly sensitive stomach.

Don’t expect to have a laugh
This is by far the most brutal story of the series so far. No feel good snarks and quips here. But an excellent story from an awesome imagination.

Difficult but good
Despite the content being emotionally difficult to swallow, this is a fantastic read. How would any of us handle what happened to these people. I hope none of us ever need to find out and only experience it through this well written story. Thankyou Jeremy Robinson and R.C. Bray.
