Good Book

This is not something I would typically read, but I enjoyed the story. The crux was like "Alien", but set here on earth.
The book was a little slow in places, but the overall enjoyment made up for it. The narrator was fantastic! He was easy to follow as the characters changed. I will read/listen to more books by this author and narrator..

Exciting thriller

This book caught us by surprise as we were not thinking it would be a sci-fi in the beginning. It turned out to be a captivating thriller that we hope never comes true!

I give it a 3.5 overall.

Fast-paced but a bit too melodramatic and fantastical

Love the Orphan X books, but not this book. Too fantastical, predictable, and even predictable.

Good listen

Whenever you have a great Narrator even a repeated storyline is worth it. Great characters.

Not his best but not bad.

Good: a few interesting characters
Bad: they died early
Good: good story if you can suspend disbelief
Bad: you’ll have to suspend a lot of disbelief
Good: It’s was pretty evident who would survive
Bad: Made sense for that character to survive but didn’t really care… character was boring.
To be fair, I expected Orphan X and it wasn’t that. This more sci-fi than thriller.

Overall, I’m giving it 4 stars. Worth a credit but not in my top 50.

Even though story was not my cup of tea it was still enjoyable.

Not the type of story I would have listened to, but Greg Hurwitz wrote it. Lots of interesting characters. But most did not make it to the end. Strike one. The military team ended up with no weapons. Strike two. The team ended up with no transportation. Strike three. How they ended up without weapons and transportation….. strike four. Other than that it was a triller ride of survival.

Great Performance by Scott Brick

I have gotten to select books not just by the author but by the reader. Scott Brick has made every book I have listened to a wonderful experience. As far as this book I thought it was good and would recommend.
