Fatal Error

Repairman Jack, Book 14

By: F. Paul Wilson

Narrated by: Christopher Price

Length: 11 hrs and 15 mins

Publisher's Summary

Munir Habib’s life has become a nightmare. His tormentor has warned Munir not to report the kidnapping of his family, or they will pay a terrible price. But a friend realizes something is terribly wrong and tells Munir he doesn’t have to go to the cops. There’s a guy who fixes situations like this - Repairman Jack.

Jack is backed into helping Munir despite his ongoing involvement in the cosmic shadow war between the Ally and the Otherness. Or perhaps because of it. He’s chafing at being forced into the defensive role of protecting the Lady, the physical embodiment of the consciousness of the planet Earth.

Meanwhile, the Septimus Order and the Kickers are seemingly working in concert on a plot to extinguish the Lady and open the way for the Otherness to take over our reality. To top it off, Dawn Pickering finally goes into labor and delivers a baby she only glimpses as it’s whisked away. She’s terrified by what she sees. Later she’s told the baby died, but she doesn’t believe it. Neither does Weezy Connell. Neither does Jack.

All these interlocking plots mean doom for humanity. But Jack never gives up or gives in.

The Otherness Attacks The Internet

If you could sum up Fatal Error in three words, what would they be?

I will use 3 compound words here:
Gut-Wrenching
Fast-Paced
Jack-Centric

What did you like best about this story?

The kidnapping plotline was exceptionally gripping.

Have you listened to any of Christopher Price’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have. My complaint about Mr.. Price is that his accents tend to be mostly the same.Southern red-neck drawl, fairly generic average person, and some unknown stilted sounding accent that is used to convey Russian, Italian, Arabic, and undetermined accents. They all sound exactly alike to me.

Who was the most memorable character of Fatal Error and why?

Jack, who gets shine in this book. Less about what the bad guys are doing and more about what Jack is doing.

Any additional comments?

A nice change from the last couple books that were very bad-guy centric. This time we see almost all of it from Jack's side. I did not realize how much I missed that. Recommended.But be aware that the kidnapping plotline is pretty graphic/violent. (However you do end up with a large smile when the kidnapper see's his interrogator.)

great progress

the story has grown so much ,now close to the end of the series its getting better and better

RJ and his team

This is one of my favorites. The whole team works together. Can't wait for the next one.
