Extinction Horizon

The Extinction Cycle, Book 1

By: Nicholas Sansbury Smith

Narrated by: Bronson Pinchot

The worst of nature and the worst of science will bring the human race to the brink of extinction.

Master Sergeant Reed Beckham has led his Delta Force Team, codenamed Ghost, through every kind of hell imaginable and never lost a man. When a top-secret Medical Corps research facility goes dark, Team Ghost is called in to face their deadliest enemy yet - a variant strain of Ebola that turns men into monsters.

After barely escaping with his life, Beckham returns to Fort Bragg in the midst of a new type of war. The virus is already spreading. As cities fall, Team Ghost is ordered to keep CDC virologist Dr. Kate Lovato alive long enough to find a cure. What she uncovers will change everything.

Total extinction is just on the horizon, but will the cure be worse than the virus?

Finally! Great Journey

Characters are believable with human emotions - not just the brave "hero." Storyline is captivating with just enough science mixed in. Different take on the normal zombie using bio weapons as we all really think they are being used now. Story moves very fast but author knows how to make you connect with each one.
I want to see what happens next.

Fast-paced twist on the zombie genre

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yeah, I think it's a great way to distract myself from my commute--definitely makes the time go by quicker.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Extinction Horizon?

The first encounter in the military labs... terrifying and great.

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

Way more emotional timbre and characterization, I think. It certainly adds to the ambience of the book.

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

I'm not sure if I can pin down a specific moment, because Kate's story had several poignant twists--don't want to ruin them though.

Great entertaining story!

Good modern apocalyptic horror... This would make a great movie! Guns, bullets, and non stop action from start to finish!

Exciting book, very likable characters!

This is not a usual read for me, although I love horror movies most of the books that I listen to are fantasy or mystery, that being said I really enjoyed this book and I may start expanding different types of novels that I listen to now. I felt this book was very hard to put down I was always left curious about what would happen next. It was almost like watching a movie but with insight into the characters minds.

Excellent character development

I loved this book. The character development and relationship building left me wanting more when the book ended. I really felt like the story was unfolding in my head in high definition.

I hate to say it but Bronson Pinchot left me feeling like he held the story back. I didn't feel he captured the author's intent for some of the character's personalities and much of the reading felt very monotone.

Even with the bland narrative I was captivated. y the story!
