Summary
Kenneth Johnson plunges listeners into a day-after-tomorrow thriller about an imminent global catastrophe and explores how ordinary people respond to extraordinary circumstances.
When the icy shards of a rogue comet fall to Earth, they bring an unknown virus that accelerates evolution to extremes. Suddenly, infected plants grow stronger, choking out those uninfected. Animals turn aggressive and deadly. The eyes of loved ones go cold, and infected neighbors begin exhibiting signs of brutal domination.
In a small Georgia town, 14-year-old Katie McLane sees her neighbors changing, one by one.
Dr. Susan Perry, an epidemiologist at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, uncovers the frightening scope of the menace. The infected aren’t just evolving. They’re conspiring to alter the very nature of what it means to be human.
Katie and Susan become fugitives because of what they know, encountering bitter betrayals and lethal dangers, but also loves ignited and inspiring camaraderie, as they fight to prevent a viral conspiracy from creating a terrifying brave new world.
Narrated by Emily Adams, Eric Pierpoint, Erin Chambers, Francesca Ling, Gary Graham, Jeff Marcus, Jenny Gago, Susan Appling, Katharine Jay, Terri Treas, David Henne, Mat Hayes, Stephen Mendel, John Duffy, and Kenneth Johnson

A good listen
Thought I would give this book a listen, very pleased I did
A tad slow starting, it jumped about a bit, but carried on, then suddenly your hooked. Plenty of twists and turns. I really enjoyed the narration, the mix worked extremely well together.
Well worth a credit. This is a book I will listen to again. Recommend.

disappointed
having listened to The Man of Legends twice I was expecting a book of equal enjoyment but sadly I found this book to be difficult to finish. I had to push myself to repeatedly pick up where I left off.

really enjoyed this book
really enjoyed this book. It wasn't what I was expecting but it was a great story and very well written and narrated. Having different voices for each actor is a brilliant idea.

Boring
Couldn't finish this book, not sure why we needed to know the boring backstory of so many inconsequential characters. Is there anything more dull than listening to multiple backstories of people that don't even matter to the story at all? Actual storyline should have been interesting but the way it's been told is not at all.
