Kill Zone

By: Kevin J. Anderson, Doug Beason

Narrated by: Roger Wayne

Power duo Kevin J. Anderson and Doug Beason team up in Kill Zone, a perilous disaster thriller for the modern age.

Deep within a mountain in Albuquerque, New Mexico, a Cold War-era nuclear weapons storage facility is being used to covertly receive more than 100,000 tons of nuclear waste stored across the US. Only Department of Energy employee, Adonia, and a few others, including a war hero, a senator, and an environmental activist, are allowed access to perform a high-level security review of the facilities. But Hydra Mountain was never meant to securely hold this much hazardous waste, and it has the potential to explode, taking with it all of Albuquerque and spreading radioactivity across the nation.

This disaster situation proves all too possible when a small plane crashes at a nearby military base, setting off Hydra's lockdown and trapping Adonia and her team in the heart of the hazardous, waste-filled mountain. Now, the only direction for them to go is deeper into the mountain, through the tear gas and into a secretive area no one was ever supposed to know about.

Good page turner

This thriller reveals the pitfalls of the US government bureaucracy which could easily turn into a disaster for the country. The story kept me on the edge until the end. And the end worked well for me, not letting me hang with a lot of unknowns. It had a good message and I am glad I read it.

A Romp with Good Science!

Kill Zone was non-stop, a story set in believable science. It made an excellent diversion. I hope they make it into a movie.

the story grabs you by the throat from the beginning and doesn't let go! very well done both on a technical level as well as a thriller!
