Escape from Chernobyl
26 April 1986

01:18

Alina & Lev are two siblings living in Pripyat, one of the Soviet Union's proud nuclear cities. Both are asleep in their beds.

Their cousin, Yuri, is a custodian at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, where he's fiercely attacking a spill in the hallway with a mop.

Alina's best friend, Sofiya, sleeps just a few doors down. Her father is an engineer at the plant, a fact that has always filled her with pride.

In five minutes, Reactor No. 4 will explode in a ball of fire. It will expel radiation across their town for nine days before it's finally contained. For the people of Pripyat, it will be far too late.

Two young siblings flee the Chernobyl disaster with their parents, but the Communist party is on their heels. Meanwhile, the friends and family they were forced to leave behind must contend with a disinformation campaign that's determined to pretend nothing is wrong—even as deadly radiation spills into the air.

About the Author

Andy Marino is the author of Escape from Alcatraz, Escape from Chernobyl, Escape from East Berlin, Escape from Stalingrad; the Plot to Kill Hitler trilogy; and several other novels for young readers and listeners. He lives in upstate New York with his wife and two dogs.

A. W. Miller was a voice actor before he even knew what he was doing. From a young age he started performing character voices for the entertainment of his friends and family. Then he forgot he could do all that until he started working as the creative services director for several radio stations. But he wouldn't find his permanent footing in voice acting until after he was halfway through a fifteen-year teaching career and his wife said to him one day: "Hey, have you thought about being an audiobook narrator?"

After picking up his dropped jaw, Miller and his wife converted a closet into a professional home studio and then he never looked back. For almost a decade he's been lending his voices to audiobooks, video games, and commercials. He is a father, husband, homesteader, and a published author. He's so passionate about audiobooks that he taught his wife to edit and now they are the dynamic VO duo! Miller lives with his wife on their five-acre homestead in middle Tennessee, where they care for their two heifers, pigs, thirty-ish chickens, and a menagerie of cats and dogs.
