Infected

A Novel

Across America a mysterious disease is turning ordinary people into raving, paranoid murderers who inflict brutal horrors on strangers, themselves, and even their own families.

Working under the government’s shroud of secrecy, CIA operative Dew Phillips crisscrosses the country trying in vain to capture a live victim. With only decomposing corpses for clues, CDC epidemiologist Margaret Montoya races to analyze the science behind this deadly contagion. She discovers that these killers all have one thing in common – they’ve been contaminated by a bioengineered parasite, shaped by a complexity far beyond the limits of known science.

Meanwhile Perry Dawsey – a hulking former football star now resigned to life as a cubicle-bound desk jockey – awakens one morning to find several mysterious welts growing on his body. Soon Perry finds himself acting and thinking strangely, hearing voices . . . he is infected.

The fate of the human race may well depend on the bloody war Perry must wage with his own body, because the parasites want something from him, something that goes beyond mere murder.

Great Book BAD NARRATION!!

This was such a great book but the narration was horrible. I contemplated only giving it 3 stars because of that, however, I really loved the story. I have read other reviews for the sequel "Contagious" and everyone says that Mr. Sigler does a better job narrating it, I truly hope so. Still, all in all, the story is good just buy the book with an open mind!!

Scott Sigler should stick to his day job

Good story overall but Scott’s performance made this book almost unlistenable. At times his reflections made it sound like he’s reading a children’s novel.

Wow get this book

Scott sigler hits a home run with this book if you are on the fence about getting this book take the leap worth the credit one hell of a bloody ride

This is sci-fi...NOT horror

I really thought I was going to fall in love with this one but I just couldn't get into this series. I have a great imagination however, I like to feel like what I am reading is happening around me, as I progress through the book. The triangle thing is too far-fetched for me...I mean, even triangle-shaped irises??? Triangle things attacking the military??? If it hadn't been for that, the narrator's attempts at transitioning between characters by changing his voice would have been waaaay more tolerable. Everything else was heading in the right direction, right down to the gore factor. Lol, I think I would have appreciated the book more if I had known it was sci-fi so that I could have set it aside for a day I felt like that type of read. I was looking for an apocalyptic horror novel because I am not yet bored with the contagion-wreaking-havoc-on-humanity type of fiction.

No bout a doubt it, it was Awesome!

Filled with a great plot, relatable characters and plenty of action, I highly recommend Infected!
