Summary

Winner of 2021 Voice Arts Award, Audiobook Narration — Science Fiction

Narrated by award-winning actor Dan Stevens (Beauty and the Beast, FX’s Legion) Ever Winter is a vivid and eloquent story of loss, rehabilitation, and revenge set in a post-apocalyptic ice world.

Far from the savage remnants of humanity, Henry and his family have managed to survive the grip of desolate, perpetual winter on a vast tundra that was once an ocean teeming with life. When the family is discovered, their peaceful existence is shattered and their lives changed forever.

Henry’s siblings are kidnapped, leaving him alone in the ruins of their home. Broken, altered, and tormented by all that has befallen him, he is driven to wreak vengeance upon those who assume him dead...by any means necessary.

Fans of Cormac McCarthy’s The Road or Emily St. John Mandel’s Station Eleven will enjoy the raw, emotional pull of debut author Peter Hackshaw’s writing.

Critic reviews

"Stevens proves once again that his acting training translates perfectly to audiobook narration." (AudioFile Magazine)

"Peter Hackshaw’s writing is immersive...and I knew while reading it that listeners would feel like they’re entering the post-apocalyptic world with Henry and his family. I’m delighted to join Podium Audio in bringing Ever Winter to life.” (Actor Dan Stevens, Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga; Downton Abbey)

Good entertaining listen.

Interesting storyline, interesting characters who are very believable. Feels like something which could happen, interesting use of language. As I speak Spanish it called to me. Thank you.

Perfect!!!

I had a spare credit and thought I would give this book a chance not expecting anything remarkable....but it was absolutely brilliant I was hooked from the very beginning, Peters story telling is exceptional and Dan’s narration is perfect in every way! I will definitely be looking out for Peters next book! Highly recommended.

Wow what a tale!
The characters and storyline are told so well that I felt I was there. Each chapter leads seamlessly to the next.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, worth every 5 star and more. Well done Peter Hackshaw, am following you on twitter so I don't miss out on the next book!!

A good, wintery adventure

Really enjoyed the vivid and interesting world and characters. Narration was also great. If I could give 4.5 stars I would... the only thing missing was a bit more complexity to the story. Really looking forward to the next one, and would certainly recommend this one.

Easy and fun read

The book is pretty fun for those looking for a frozen post apocalyptic world with a bit of sci-fi as frosting on top. There is not much realistic about the story or it’s characters, so don’t expect any gritty realism. More of a 80’s B movie vibe going on. All in all not bad.

A modern classic

A fantastic tale of survival, revenge and redemption, superbly written from start to finish, complemented by Dan Stevens. I decided to give this a go after the awards it won and I can see why. Looking foward to the inevitable sequels.
