Virtual voice killed the story!
Reviewed: 03-03-25
First, the story is actually very good and worth the READ!
Why actually read it? Because the virtual voice is so awful. Let’s look at the many reasons why:
1. It cannot give tones and inflections that make the story. Instead it sounds like a bunch of words put together that are all over the place.
2. The narration does not change for the different characters. That in itself makes the “narrator” produce a flat version of what is otherwise a good story.
3. Virtual voice does not know how to handle words like: Ebola (pronounced ebb a lah by the system). KIA is three letters not the Kia car brand. Dominguez - somehow the name comes across as Domin E guess. Nope.
4. The sense of urgency that comes with a military action sounds like a microphone check before a Taylor Swift concert.
For the sake of a really good book have Ray Porter redo this book. He would hit it out of the ballpark. It’s right up his genre

She used to work for the US government, but very few people ever knew that. An expert in her field, she was one of the darkest secrets of an agency so clandestine it doesn't even have a name. And when they decided she was a liability, they came for her without warning. Now she rarely stays in the same place or uses the same name for long. They've killed the only other person she trusted, but something she knows still poses a threat. They want her dead, and soon.

Meyers finally gets it RIGHT

I am so happy I found this and gave it a chance. This is the style Stephenie Meyer should be/ NEEDS to be writing. If there was a way for a sequel to be written I am all in. The characters, plot, pace all develop perfectly.

I wanted this book to be good! After about 6 chapters I returned it. The reading Lexus is about that of a 10th grader. The conversations read/listen like you are talking to high schoolers and not highly trained epidemiologists. The story reads sometimes like a serious pandemic story other times not so much.
The narration was not too he greatest.
