About this listen

What started as a flu outbreak on a military base proves deadlier than Ebola and more contagious than the Spanish Flu. Sympatico Syndrome is unlike anything the world has ever seen. Victims' behavior is changing to accommodate the rapid spread of the virus.

Former Navy epidemiologist Cole Evans is well aware of the rare, infectious diseases the military studies. He also knows, first-hand, the government's stance on sharing information with the public, so if the media has already learned about the disease, then it's far too late to contain the outbreak.

Cole's only chance to save his family is to establish a safe haven. Isolated, hard to reach, and with enough space for his brother's family as well, he has the perfect location - if only they can all reach it before they're infected.

Infection

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

'Infection' is intense, with a story line that reflects life that we fear will come to pass. I'm torn between listening it all at once, or stopping during the intense scenes just to catch my breath. I always feel a sense of loss after finishing books of this genre.
I received a free copy of the audiobook in exchange of my review.

Meh...story was okay, narration was tough to enjoy.

The last three books I listened to were narrated by Will Patton. He was great. Compared to Will Patton, it was hard to get into Scott Berrier. The story was interesting enough to stick with it and finish the story.

Sympatico Syndrome Book 1

I enjoyed this series. Ever since finding The Last Tribe by Brad Manuel non violent Post-Apocalyptic stories are my new favorite genre, unfortunately they are few and far between. The negative reviews mainly seem to be about the lack of violence. Give this or The Last Tribe a chance. The narrator took some getting used to. Speeding up the narration helped.

it was a typical survival story.

it's probably just me but ive heard so many of these before and this format is seems so tired. if you really liked the first Day by Day book and haven't read the same story over and over you may like this.

Very good book!

I usually don't read this type of genre but glad I did because it was a very good book and it had just enough of everything thing in it, not to much but not too little. I'm glad theres more books to this series and can't wait to continue with the next book.

Enjoyable

Would you listen to Infection: A Pandemic Survival Novel again? Why?

I enjoyed it, but I don't know I'd do a repeat listen. It's rare for me to listen to most audiobooks more than once though, so this isn't a reflection on the book itself.

Have you listened to any of Scott Berrier’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have not heard any of his other narrations, but I would definitely give them a try.

Any additional comments?

I enjoyed the book, but some parts were a little slow for me, although the ending seemed pretty abrupt. I am planning to listen to the next book in the series though.

Not Bad

This was a decent start to the series. I loved the interesting take on a world ending virus.

No character development

It's a great concept but I honestly found it hard to get through. I didn't care about the characters at all. The story didn't draw me in to want to know what happens next cause I could careless if they all died.
