Exit Vertigo

by Jordan Crouch

Connor Bryson lurches awake reciting a half-remembered song. Coming to, he realizes he’s hypothermic—shivering cold—trapped inside a stasis tube, shrouded in darkness. Escaping his capsule, he lights a lantern, only to discover the locker containing his heating supplies is empty. Freezing to death now, he reflects on the last memory of his pregnant wife, beside him still, suspended in a tube. Just as Connor slips out of consciousness, two strangers arrive...

Another gripping, wholly absorbing chapter of the bestselling Wayward Pines series, Jordan Crouch’s Exit Vertigo explores the dangerous netherworld existence of caretakers who emerge from stasis every two decades to ensure the facility that houses all that remains of mankind continues to function. While others hibernate, Connor and a select team of maintenance workers stumble through the Ark’s darkened hallways, racing against time in search for a clue to an apocalypse no one can remember.

Loved it, I was a Wayward Pines fan and giving the chance to return to this world was a pleasure just too short wanted more so looking fwd. to the second book.

Loved the mystery that surrounds the short story and the atmosphere that Jordan has created.

Great to see Blake is keeping it in the family

A great short read

I liked this short glimpse into the Pre-wayward pines era. The characters are great and the storyline keeps you at the edge of your seat.

I can not find this book or other wayward kindle world books

Too short. I was just settling into the story and it abruptly ended. But it was well-written and interesting.

Review of Exit Vertigo

I do like the Wayward Pines series. Since this book is part of an on going series, I can say that as a first book, this is a good read. It is interesting to read about the men and women who maintained the mountain facility for all those centuries in the hopes of a life renewed. For a different perspective of the Wayward Pines world, read this novella.

Grabs you right off

I knew this was a continuation of the Wayward Pine story and it was a good one. But, it was a like the first chapter only. Just as it gets you pulled in, it ends. Not fair!

Not bad, but not great

This was a fantastic novela which captures you instantly and keeps you hooked the entire time. This is my first time reading a sci fi/horror type story, and am looking forward to the next novela!

Interesting side-tale

Finished it wondering where this was headed. Have already purchased and will read the next continuation of Exit Vertigo. Good writing.

Creepy space horror! The ending was a little too abrupt for me at the expense of clarity of plot.
