Über diesen Titel
Two boys fall in love in a deadly world, but it's the secrets they keep that might kill them.
Seventeen-year-old Zach was visiting his uncle in a small Montana town when a mysterious illness ripped through the world. Most died, but those who survived the Infection became mindless killers, spreading the disease with a single scratch. Now, a year later, civilization lies in ruins, and Zach is the town's sole survivor. Desperately lonely, he longs to return to his family in Seattle, but his fears hold him captive.
Eighteen-year-old Aiden is on a critical mission for the covert Scientific Collective, delivering vials whose contents could cure the Infection. Tortured by his boyfriend's death, he welcomes the risks of the perilous journey. When a militia attacks Aiden, he flees to Zach's town.
The boys escape together and soon form a bond as they comfort each other in this desolate and broken world. The farther they travel, the more their affection grows, as do the forces pulling them apart. But their greatest threats are the secrets they keep. Zach hides details of his uncles death, and Aiden conceals the vials sinister origins. In order to survive, they'll have to confront the truths that could tear their love apart.

Incredible Adventure
Together in a Broken World is a brilliant post-apocalyptic blend of YA romance and adventure that kept me engaged from start to finish.
Paul Michael Winters delivers solid world-building in his debut novel that made me want to learn more about what happened to the world and the type of society that formed after its collapse. For me personally, that’s the make-or-break aspect of a post-apocalyptic story. I was very pleased with how the story delivered on that front. So much in fact that I’d love to explore more stories in that broken world.
But the heart of the story, the one aspect that gives it life and character, are the two protagonists, Aiden and Zack (from A to Z, if you know, you know). I loved how they perfectly complemented each other despite being different people with their own distinct personalities, something the audiobook did a great job of showing. Even for someone like me, who doesn’t care all that much about romance, I really loved the slow-burn development of their feelings toward each other and how they offered me countless beautifully touching moments. I also loved how the post-apocalyptic adventure side of the novel complemented the romance plot and how both aspects of the story fed into each other. It wasn’t an adventure that kept getting interrupted by a flat romance subplot or a romance that just happened to take place in an underdeveloped post-apocalyptic world. No, this was a story of how two boys found each other in a broken world (my appreciation for the title is growing as I am writing this, by the way).
Together in a Broken World made me cry, laugh, and kept me on the edge of my seat. I listened to it on the bus, at work, in the gym, and every moment I could because I simply couldn’t put it down. I can’t recommend this incredible debut by Paul Michael Winters enough, and I can’t wait to read his future work.
