De: James Abel

Narrado por: Ray Porter

Joe Rush takes on a new terror, spawned in the Amazon rain forest, that threatens to bring the world to its knees in James Abel's latest bio-thriller, now in paperback.

While studying new forms of malaria at an Amazon gold rush, Joe Rush's best friend and partner, Eddie Nakamura, disappears. Learning that many of the sick miners have also vanished, Rush begins a search for Eddie that takes him into the heart of darkness--where while battling for his life, he discovers a secret that may change the world.

Thousands of miles away, sick people are starting to flood into U.S. hospitals. When the White House admits that it has received terrorist threats, cities across the Northeast begin to shut down. Rush and his team must journey from one of the most remote spots on Earth to one of the busiest, as the clock ticks toward a kind of annihilation not thought possible. They have even less time than they think to solve the mystery, for the danger--as bad as it is--is about to get even worse.

Reseñas de la Crítica

Praise for the novels of James Abel

Cold Silence

“James Abel mines the best of Douglas Preston and James Rollins in the riveting Cold Silence...Like Preston and Rollins, Abel excels at making technological mumbo jumbo accessible to those of us without degrees in science. Cold Silence entertains as it informs, a rare feat comparable to Michael Crichton at his best.”—Providence Journal

“James Abel’s flair for dialogue and plotting kept me reading...Good, apocalyptic fun.”—The News & Observer

Protocol Zero

“Clive Cussler fans will relish the pseudonymous Abel’s sequel to White Plague...Abel nicely blends action and science in the service of a plausible, but terrifying, plot, peopled with well-developed characters.”—Publishers Weekly


White Plague

“If you like Tom Clancy and Martin Cruz Smith, then you need to read James Abel.”
—Linda Fairstein, New York Times bestselling author of Killer Look

“[A] hard-driving thriller of the modern Arctic. Fast, well-written entertainment wrapped around something to think about.”—John Sandford, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Escape Clause

Great Series Wish There Were More

Selected the first book of this series to listen to Ray Porter. Ended up binging on the whole series. Wish there were more.

Engaging!

The story was good, fluid and engaging. Ray Porter narrates excellently as usual. Waiting for the next book in the Rush series.

Beware! this book is hard to put down.

Well written and perfectly executed I finished the book in one night. I'm definitely looking forward to the next book.

Great Story as Always and Narration Perfection

I stopped what I was doing Tuesday morning when the 4th Joe Rush novel was released on Audible. I loved the first three novels.
James Abel is actually Joe Reiss and has written over 20 novels. I don't know why he chose to change his name for the Joe Rush novels, but the writing in these novels show that he's not new to the game.
Vector, as well as the rest of the Joe Rush novels, is smart and surprising and has fun twists that keep you interested until the last word.
Joe Rush is a reluctant hero who is forever getting in trouble with the establishment. He knows and speaks of his limits. He's just flawed enough to make him real and interesting and likable.
The bad guy in the story was believable and easy to hate. All of the character development was great.
The story and pace of action was fun. The ending drove right up to the last minutes of the book. I loved the ending.
Ray Porter as a narrator is so talented. I know these stories are better with him vs reading them as a traditional book.
I highly recommend Vector and all of the Joe Rush Novels.

Outstanding plot and drama

Outstanding performance by the narrator and story by the author. Surprised often and never knowing what is going to happen next. Looking forward to the next book in the continuing adventures of Dr. Joe Rush.
