Resumen del Editor

China is book one of The Flense quadrilogy, an international technothriller from the bestselling author of <>Gameland.

Hundreds die in a fiery train crash in northern China. A cargo ship smuggling refugees is lost to calm seas off the Libyan coast. Entire villages in Ghana are abandoned overnight.

Contracted by an apocalypse prepper group to investigate a series of seemingly disconnected global tragedies, a young medical investigative reporter, Angelique de l'Enfantine, uncovers a disturbing pattern to the tragedies. Are they harbingers of an impending biblical catastrophe? Or practice runs by a fanatical organization bent on global annihilation?

An incredible story.

What did you love best about China?

The many unique and seemingly random situations over the world that were brought together in a way that I never expected

What does Doug Greene bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

While I enjoyed the reading very much there were a few issues with the reader not pronouncing medical terms correctly. Most people would not notice it, but as a nurse that is something that should be looked into before a story is made into an audiobook.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Angelique's refusal to give up in spite of the odds. Her desire to find justice for all who had lost their lives was commendable.

Intrigue and deception, trust no one

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
If you like suspenseful stories about government cover-ups, black ops groups and more cover-ups then I recommend this story. It has it all

What was one of the most memorable moments of China?
The end scene was an eye opener for the main character, Angelique. Slightly disturbing and fast paced.

Which scene was your favorite?
The village scene when Angelique was waiting for the town to come back from the burial ceremony. You could feel the intensity and panic.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
See above. No Spoilers.

Any additional comments?
This is a long story, but worth it. Doug Greene did a very good job of narrating. The only issue I had with him was his voice being slightly staccato at times. It also sometimes lacked warmth when necessary. Overall a very good story.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

Perhaps we can take medical experiments too far

You may find this macabre in places, but it may yet come to pass, as there are some twisted minds in the world.

Fantastic

Kept me listening until I finished, there was no stopping until the end. The narrator was just wonderful, easy to listen to and understand

Loved it!

Very intriguing story. I can’t wait to read more of the stories in the Flense series!

whoa!

ok angelic is a crazy medical investigative reporter who starts with one story and ends up in the middle of some intense scary situations. what's up with 6x? who do the Americans work for? who does Nordstrom work for? oh my God!!! these questions are going to drive me crazy lol there is violence due to no witnesses, no survivors being the name of the game but there is no adult content

AN ENJOYABLE LISTEN

Filled with mystery &amp; medical intrigue an enjoyable read/listen that makes you want to read more from

Promising story but a little slow at times.

This is the first volume (really the first 3 volumes of what I believe is a 12 part story). I must admit there is plenty to like, interesting characters, a mysterious storyline, but at times it seemed a bit slow with chapters that didn't really seem to add to the story. But overall there is definitely more good than bad, and I'd really like to see where the story leads.

This is the first time I've heard Doug Greene's narration and while he has a pretty good voice, he has a rather odd delivery style, with strange random pauses. I swear at times it reminded me of the bizarre way William Shatner paused while portraying Kirk on Star Trek. And as odd as it might sounds, I can't say I hated it, it made me laugh, though I'm fairly confident that wasn't his intention. Would I .......listen to him again? Yes, yes I would.

Thrilling first in a series.

Thrilling first in a series that keeps you wondering what is going to happen next. I like the characters and can't wait to get the next book. There is a lot of violence, senseless death, and cruelity... so be warned. I Voluntarily reviewed this audiobook after receiving an advanced copy that I requested.
