About this listen

The breathtaking New York Times and USA Today bestseller!

Kira Miller is a brilliant genetic engineer who discovers how to temporarily achieve savant-like capabilities in all areas of thought and creativity. But what if this transcendent level of intelligence brings with it a ruthless megalomania?

David Desh left the special forces after his team was brutally butchered in Iran. Now he has been reactivated for one last mission: find Kira Miller, the enigmatic genius behind a bioterror plot that threatens millions. But when Desh learns that the bioterror plot is just the tip of the iceberg, he is thrust into a byzantine maze of deception and intrigue, and he becomes a key player in a deadly game he can't begin to understand - a game that is certain to have a dramatic impact on the future course of human history.

An enjoyable listen, good characters, good character development. I enjoyed the plot far fetched but not to far fetched.

Solid

Really good, engaging story (though the epilogue stepped a little too far into the philosophy side of things than i would have liked to see, given how conclusive it came across)
The narrator was terrible. He SPEAKS with a completely OFF the wall cadence that means the first SYLLable of a SENTence or BLOCK of words is SUPER loud while the FOLLowing words are so COMPARATIVELT QUIET and mumbled as to be UNINTELLigible. Kind of like this PARAgraph.

great story, crap narrator

Great story,
Really bad choice of Narrator, It was painful listening to this guy. Complete overacting.
He shouldn't read anything except for detective stories set in the 50's.

Fun thriller.

A bit cliche, a bit slow and confusing in parts, but not too bad overall. His writing style really improved in his subsequent books.

Not as good as his later books
