Ruination

Viral Apocalypse, Book 2

De: Michael McBride

Narrado por: Cassandra Arnold

The second book in the internationally best-selling series!

A deadly contagion has spread across the country, turning the afflicted into violent monsters and the streets into battlegrounds. The government has fallen. Once great cities lay in ruins. And those cursed with immunity have braved the chaos to take shelter in military bases unprepared to withstand the continuous attacks of the infected.

But that’s not the worst part.

An ancient evil intent on bringing about the end of the world has awakened. Fortunately, a Hopi elder who’s spent his entire life awaiting the fulfillment of the prophecies foretelling its return has traveled the highways, leaving signs summoning the chosen to the site of humanity’s last stand.

If they can reach it in time.

An FBI agent and a prescient teenage girl need to fight their way down the west coast. An expert on indigenous languages and a woman with precognitive abilities must battle inland from the east. And a pair of scientists have to escape from a doomed research facility so they can share a discovery that the entire world needs to know: The virus runs its course in 72 hours. All the immune have to do is survive that long.

And pray the forces of darkness don’t find them first.

Great Story

Narrator a bit shaky but not enough for me to lose interest in the story. Loved it. definitely a different take on the apocalypse.

Narrator is horrible

The story it’s self is good but I have struggled to finish as the narrator is the worst I have ever encountered. I am still not convinced the narrator is not AI. I hope they bring back the narrator from the first book as I am not sure I would be willing to purchase the next book. It really is unfortunate as the narrator from the first book truly brought the story to life.

Great story but …

The narration was awful. Was it computer read. I had to ignore it for a good story.

Machine Reading or SPEAK AND SPELL?

Damm good story line but the narration of the story was that of old SPEAK AND SPELL spelling computer. At times I thought a. machine was reading this story. I struggled to finish it due to the voice. I hope for the final reading they get the first narrator.

Great story Loved it!

I think Michael’s take on “zombie apocalypse” is incredible unique and fresh! I love all the descriptive details.

The change from a male narrator in the first to a female in the second was little jarring at first, but I thought Cassandra did a good job with it. I happen to like narrators who enunciate well and thought it was good.

Definitely looking forward to the next one!
