About this listen

The nanotechnology was designed to fight cancer. Instead, it evolved into the machine plague, killing nearly five billion people and changing life on Earth forever.

The nanotech has one weakness: it self-destructs at altitudes above ten thousand feet. Those few who've managed to escape the plague struggle to stay alive on the highest mountains, but time is running out. There is famine and war, and the environment is crashing worldwide. Humanity's last hope lies with a top nanotech researcher aboard the International Space Station -- and with a small group of survivors in California who risk a daring journey below the death line...

"Harrowing, heartfelt, and rock-hard realistic." (James Rollins, New York Times best-selling author)

Just did not hang together for me. Sounded like everyone was doubled dealing every one. Ending was just flat.

In the first chapter, Carlson wipes out nearly 6,000,000,000 people on the planet with the Nanotech plague. What follows is a wild ride between political powers and the few who wish to advance the technology to save humankind. Anyone who dives into this three book series is in for a wild ride.

“They Ate Jorgensen first.” Brilliant and spellbinding!

Initially I was taken aback by the story line. It built nicely and I enjoyed the writer’s style.

plague year isn't your typical flesh eating virus story. the concept is interesting but it just didn't have enough thrill to keep me going. i finished the book but won't be purchasing the next.

Lacking thrill factor

I had a hard time keeping up with who is who Ass well as the team members. So generally I understand the story

Great concept

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

None of the characters really seemed worthwhile. I kept waiting for them to become more likeable, so I care about what happened to them, it never happened.

Just did not grip me

This book was pretty good if you are a big fan of sci-fi stories! I was hoping for more about the people who survived the diseases.

I had to restart the book three times in an effort to figure out who they were talking about. I gave up after my third attempt. The narration is really bad but honestly, a better narration wouldn’t have made this a better story. It was just all around poorly done.

Bad narration and confusing characters

Seems like a good plot but I can’t get past the monotone narration. Very dark and grim so far but five chapters in is as far I’m willing to suffer.

Poorly executed
