Publisher's summary

Once in a lifetime, a writer puts it all together. This is James Patterson's best work ever.

Total

For 36 years, James Patterson has written unstopable, pulse-racing novels. Now, he has written an audiobook that surpasses all of them. Zoo is the thriller he was born to write.

World

All over the world, brutal attacks are crippling entire cities. Jackson Oz, a young biologist, watches the escalating events with an increasing sense of dread. When he witnesses a coordinated lion ambush in Africa, the enormity of the violence to come becomes terrifyingly clear.

Destruction

With the help of ecologist Chloe Tousignant, Oz races to warn world leaders before it's too late. The attacks are growing in ferocity, cunning, and planning, and soon there will be no place left for humans to hide. With wildly inventive imagination and white-knuckle suspense that rivals Stephen King at his very best, James Patterson's Zoo is an epic, nonstop thrill ride from "One of the best of the best" (Time).

GREAT STORY

Resd the book a few years ago and loved it while in the hospital I saw it in my library and thought why not re-visit the story again.
it was as thrilling as the book was and l thoroughly enjoyed the narrator telling of the story.

Totally different style

I am a James Patterson fan (Alex Cross and Michael Bennett series) and I was totally surprised with the subject of the book. I only read the book after seeing the add for the TV show on CBS this summer (2015)
Other reviews I read stated they were disappointed. I wasn't. It was a pleasant difference in James Patterson's writing style and the subject.

If you like environmental drama, this is a good book. (Don't make any comparisons to the show. It is completely different from the book all together.

I actually would be interested in a second book. The book ended without closure. (unfortunately I like to have closure to my books)

Entertaining and worth the read

This was a pretty good story and keep me entertained. There were a few very good action 'scenes' and I liked the performer's voice and performance. It was worth buying and reading.
