Publisher's summary

The greatest discovery in human history may also be our last.

Dr. Jack Greer's startling discovery beneath the Gulf of Mexico proved to the world we were not alone in the universe. But when images from the Voyager One space probe reveal an alien doomsday ship hurtling toward the Earth, the human race seems marked for extinction.

As news of the approaching ship spreads panic around the globe, signs of a sinister plot begin to emerge - one that threatens to unravel the already fragile fabric of society and everything Jack and Dr. Mia Ward have fought for.

But could a mysterious signal emanating from inside Greenland's ice sheet unlock the secrets hidden within our genome and prevent humanity's destruction?

From the frozen fields of Greenland to the bustling Indian subcontinent and the cobbled streets of Rome, the race is on to stop the deadliest countdown to extinction the human race has ever known.

Awesomeness! Science, intrigue, Aliens, suspense!

Extinction Countdown
Ancient Origins Series, Book 2
By: James D. Prescott
Narrated by: Gary Tiedemann
This is an Audible book I requested and the review is voluntary.
I loved the first book and this one is just as good. Something triggered the death of millions of people since the last book. The alien ship is sighted coming toward Earth. Secrets are revealed, so many twists and turns, corruption everywhere, and new connections between the aliens coming and the changes to humans are made. Lots of suspense, intrigue, government corruption, science brain food, and great imaginary possibilities!
The narration was terrific! Wonderful performance from start to finish!

Solid part 2

Very good follow up to book one, The mystery continues and the characters are likable.

Great second book

I loved the first book in this series so this book had a lot of expectations to live up to and it delivered. A lot happens in this book, it was like being on an adventure park ride.

The story is excellent and it's well executed, there are plenty of twists and nothing can be taken for granted. I've come to care for the characters, they're so well written it's impossible not to want them to survive and thrive.

I love all the tech, especially Anna who is developing so quickly as an AI.

This book left me desperate to know what will happen when the aliens reach earth so I'm definitely going to be getting my hands on book three.

I received a free copy of this book from the author and/or narrator and/or publisher and I voluntarily wrote this honest review.

excellent adventure

Excellent second installment!

The story picks up right where the last one left off. I personally listened to the first again before beginning as it had been awhile. Another site is located, this time in Greenland and another ship is found in space, heading for Earth. Society begins to collapse and the crew fights to figure out how to survive by exploring in Greenland. Mia heads off on her own mission and new characters and some old make an appearance. As always Gary Tiedemann does and excellent job with narration! Highly recommended series! Cant wait for the next!! I received a free review copy of this book at my request and have voluntarily left this review! Thank you!

Rapid pace keeps you listening!

Start listening for the narrator, stay for the story. For those who scoff at the science in this series, please remember this is sci-fi! We are having fun here, remember?

Yes I would have loved to have experienced deeper character development, and overall, the bones of the story could have been fleshed out further. This is well worth a listen, and I imagine I'll listen to it again. Can't wait to get to book 3.

The series continues!

The second book in the series is as good as the first. Well thought out plot and narration was very well done. A delightful mix of history/science fiction and current events with a twist thrown in. Well worth the time and credit.

This book was provided at no cost for a fair and honest review.

Extinction Countdown

This story is fun, the characters are enjoyable. What I love about this author is his unpredictability. Many times you know exactly what the plot will be right away when you are first reading a book.

great 2nd book of the series

I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

I thought this was an excellent follow up to the first book. The author and narrator do a good job of picking up where they left off in book 1. I would recommend starting with book 1, but this is a series worth checking out.
