Kevin Pariseau
Kevin Pariseau elevates this near-future sci-fi tale with a pulse-pounding delivery, narrating the science, the suspense and the horror of this all-too plausible tale from New York Times best-selling author Douglas E. Richards.
When a small alien spacecraft lands in the Amazon jungle, the world's most powerful nations race to retrieve it and harvest its superior technology. The dense rain forest renders traditional military vehicles useless, so the United States sends in a single operative - a powerfully enhanced human sporting revolutionary technology. But the interstellar visitor has arrived with a secret and gory purpose of its own. Seeker will have listeners running for cover.

The author is fond of overexplaining and of providing a TON of unnecessary detail. This book should be half the size to become entertaining. As an example, there were 10-15 minutes blackouts periods when I would fall asleep, wake up and continue listening without the need to go back because nothing actually happened, as the characters were reciting trivia facts and re-stating the obvious.
If I were reviewing this book as a publisher, I would advise the author to do some heavy editing. Tighten up the scenes, avoid too much padding with the info and over-explanations.
Another thing, the chemistry between the main characters is diluted by their constant assessment of each other's IQ and their braggery about their enhancements. It seems like a childish dream of the author about reaching immortality and "total recall" memory (insert eyeroll of a biologist here). And just to add pet peeve - I really do not like when people try to insert a real technique in a book without understanding what the technique is about. Just no. Sure, 90% of readers might have never heard of CRISPR, but the 10% who know what it is, are forced to deal with this constant eyeroll thing and desire to quit the book that mangles biology.
Three stars, which in my personal grade system means that the book has potential and is ok to listen, but needs lots of improvement to become "good".
Too much unnecessary info/trivia
