A Fold to Extinction

By: Shaun Fitzgerald

Narrated by: Kevin Howard

We assume extinction level events are cataclysmic events, but what if they were microscopic, like our history teaches us?

To the rest of the world, a random tsunami is but one disaster among other events to speculate over. Unbeknownst to most of the world, the disaster is but a single ripple caused by a clandestine experiment in the South Pacific. For one newly arranged rescue team, their mission to rescue researchers will lead them to confront terrors mankind was never intended to meet, and unravel an enigma that may be the extinction of life as humanity knows it.

Great first effort for everyone. I want more.

This review has been a long time coming. A Really long time actually. I’ve taken my time with this book. I’ve read it twice, and listened to it once. While a bit rocky at a couple points in the beginning once the story settles in on itself it really gets going. The author really shines with the military aspect of things, which lends to the fast pace nature of the story. It is a tour de force for sure, something that I feel that only the real life experiences of the author can actually enhance the story.
Giving old sci-fi tropes a blend and a twist. Wrenching them into the modern era, and forcing them into a military fiction is always fun, and mildly terrifying in some ways. I anxiously await the next installment from this author. Be it a sequel or new series. I’m hooked.
Now for the guy reading it.
I have never heard of this guy before, and looking him up I've found no other books he has read. So I assume this is his first narration. what a fantastic first job. The base in this mans voice made me turn the volume down in my head phones. He does everything I like a narrator to do. Have a wonderful pace, have a variation of voice between characters, and put effort in. I'm looking forward to hearing more from him.

Highly Engaging

I was hooked from the start. Shaun Fitzgerald has a writing style I really enjoy, and the pacing of this book was perfect to keep me listening. I only have time to "read" while I commute and I found myself looking forward to these sessions.

The narrator did an excellent job of keeping me engaged. I never felt like my immersion was broken, and his voice and intonation choices for the characters really helped paint the pictures in my mind.

The characters are well-written, the premise is exciting, and the narration is spot-on. If you're on the fence about this one, give it a listen. You won't regret it.
