About this listen

In the aftermath of a war, America’s landscape has been ravaged and two-thirds of the population left dead from influenza. Fifteen-year-old Stephen Quinn and his family were among the few that survived. But when Stephen’s grandfather dies and his father falls into a coma, Stephen finds his way to Settler’s Landing, a community that seems too good to be true. There he meets strong, defiant, mischievous Jenny. When they play a prank on the town bully’s family that goes horribly wrong, they find themselves in the midst of a battle that will change Settler’s Landing forever.

A better book the farther in I got.

From the get go I didn’t like the whole negative feel Stephen brought with him the whole way but made me like him more once he decided that there is a future to be had in a town.

This story would have been better if the female characters were played by females and not a high pitched man. But that’s the only “bad” review I have on this audiobook. Thank you to the guy that did the audio.

I Wish Dan Bittner Could Narrate all My Books!

The Eleventh Plague was, to me, as much about trust and loyalty as the aftermath of an apocalyptic event. The audiobook drew me in immediately...thanks to both Hirsch's writing and Bittner's narration, which was fabulous!

The book raising some great questions: How do you reestablish society after it has fallen? What things do you change? And when rebuilding society is such a precious and delicate process, what mistakes will you tolerate from others?

Interesting and thought-provoking

If you could sum up The Eleventh Plague in three words, what would they be?

interesting and thought-provoking

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Eleventh Plague?

hard to say...

What does Dan Bittner bring to the story that you wouldn???t experience if you just read the book?

the youthful voice of the narrator as the main character brought life to the story

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

What our future might be...

Any additional comments?

Although there were a few hokey dialogs, the story was intriguing. I thought the title was misleading because the plague itself is not a main element of the story; it is the aftermath that froms the basis of the story. I would have liked the story to be a bit longer; therre were many areas I would have loved to have seen developed a bit more. Nonetheless, I really enjoyed the book.

GREAT

Where does The Eleventh Plague rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I listen to a great many audiobooks. This one is a great listen for young adults and teenagers. The story is in the same vein as Earth Abides, told in a different viewpoint that is quite interesting. The twists are thought provoking. LOVED IT..

Who was your favorite character and why?

The main charector Stephen with the way he was raised and when he was raised, created a way of thinking that made me question some of my own thoughts.

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

This s th frst time that I have listened to 1 of his readings that i am aware of. He did a real good job.

Beautiful plot and wonderful, shocking story

I would highly recommend this book to anyone who has ever read the hunger games series or anybody who read The Color of my Words. This story was overall amazing and with audible it added a WHOLE other dimension that made this book amazing like if you had a tv in your mind, it was so vivid and exciting. So much that I finished the book in 2 days I couldn't wait of what would happen next and I NEVER WANTED THE BOOK TO END!!! I feel like the book was a tiny bit unfinished like did just that area and town stopped with the chaos or the whole U.S. And what happened about the plague was it infecting anybody any more? So many question were unanswered which I disliked but I really did love the story.
