What would you do if you awoke to a tsunami and a world without power? It’s scary to contemplate. That’s what happened to Jim and his family as they were on vacation, several states away from home. Pilgrimage by Tom Abrahams details their escape from the tsunami, their troubles navigating the unsafe streets while trying to get home, and what they found when they reached the supposed-safe-haven. Jim is a man who refuses to give up and will do anything to protect his family. I love that the characters are normal, everyday people who must face challenges head-on and use the will to survive to overcome. This action-packed story kept my attention from the first page. Kevin Pierce projects the emotions of the characters and has an innate ability to place us into the story with his voice. He’s an excellent narrator.
