About this listen

Trust nothing. Challenge everything. Survive, if you can.

In the chilling dawn of a near-future world, gene hackers, armed with AI and CRISPR's deadly precision, unleash wave after wave of engineered diseases. With food dwindling and trust eroding, nations spiral into authoritarian chaos, battling an unseen enemy while rampant disinformation corrodes the very fabric of society.

Millions, once productive citizens, now languish in their homes, awaiting meager government assistance checks. They peer through windows, fear in their eyes, dreading the ever-present virus police who, with a blast from their notorious Burn Boxes, cleanse the world one contaminated victim at a time.

Amid this tempest of societal decay stands Noah Blanks, an ordinary man burdened with the responsibility of his mortgage and the health of his cherished grandpa. For him, hope is a distant memory of a saner world. But when the virus police arrive at his doorstep, forcibly hauling Grandpa out into the street and turning him to ash within the steel walls of a Burn Box, Noah's passive wait for a better world ignites into an urgent need for action.

Burn Box is more than a survival story. It's an exploration into the depths of humanity in a world teetering on the edge. Can Noah muster the courage to defy this twisted order, or will he be swallowed by the fiery abyss of the dystopian terror?

This is starting out to be equally as good as his perfectly written, and narrated slow burn series

Absolutely phenomenal as usual from Bobby Adair

Very close to home. “People reserve their deepest hate for the ones that shatter their illusions” is a great line.

Very scary and good

If You're a fan of PostApo and Dystopian stories this is a must read/listen to. You won't be dissapointed. Also MC is good and "evil" at the same time. His character isn't linear lawful good as the ones found in Slow Burn series. It gives a deeper dimension to the character development progression.

Absolute marvel of PostApo/Dystopian/Sci-Fi/Grunge-Fi story, narration and narrative overall

Phil Thron narrations is what brings this book to life for me. Bobby Adair storytelling is extremely remarkable. Slow to start this is just book 1 can’t wait for the next. Maybe we will get some Nulspot moments

Great book 1

I enjoyed the book and it’s definitely what is in store for the future. I’ll be dust by then. Scary stuff. On to book 2.

Adairs’s clearly the modern apocalypse master. This book is right up his alley. It is was an easy listen and very enjoyable. A note of caution, if you hand strong feelings about the need for Covid compliance, this book may strike you the wrong way. But bear in mind, this is a work of fiction. It’s no threat to anyone’s political alignment

Doesn’t disappoint

Starts a little slow, but this author never fails to write a good book. MC seems to be pretty gullible but with a soft heart, at first. But he wisens up and turns into an interesting character. Will follow this series, as I do with all this author writes.

A new type of apocalyptic nightmare

I'm 1 hour and 54 minutes into the book and am compelled to rebut the reviews of "slow at first". Those reviews don't appreciate the character building that took place that was necessary for thier appreciation of the protagonist, his reasoning, his purpose and why he became the protagonist. I've stopped here to make this review as I understand the world building and character development sets the stage for the readers acceptance of what comes later. All is superb and should not be discounted by those who thoroughly enjoyed the writing while simultaneously discounting the reason it was so enjoyable.
I'll include more after I eagerly finish the book.

1 hour and 54 minutes into it

Not to be so demandy, but please, Mr Adair, get Book 2 out soon! Fast-paced, interesting characters, believable circumstances/plot line ... I wish I'd savored my listening minutes a bit more. Will listen again.

Very Enjoyable!
