The narration was outstanding. It will keep you entertained! The author did an amazing job with the character builds and plot! I look forward to reading more books from this author! I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

This is one of my favorites

I really hope this keeps going for at least 4-5 books. I have told people about Dorris and got them listening to the series. I wouldn’t be surprised if 1/2 of this is true.

Good Continuation of the Story Line

I was given this free review copy audio-book at my request and have voluntarily left this review. This review is for the audio copy of Midnight Zone-A Cade Rearden Thriller, Book 2 by JK Franks and narrated by Lee Strayer. Book 2 doesn’t disappoint. The characters were consistent; the story was exciting and full of thrills and adventures. This was a good continuation of the story line and I highly recommend it. Lee does a great job of narrating and doing the different voices. He made the story come alive in my mind. I am anxiously awaiting more Cade Rearden adventures!

Modern Science Meets Cthulhu

At the start of the Midnight Zone, the world is a more fragile place thanks to the AI war detailed in State of Chaos. America’s financial institutions have been damaged, confidence in government has been reduced, and the other nations of the world—enemies and allies alike—are moving to take advantage of America’s weakness. Unfortunately, those are only the obvious problems facing the United States as our heroes from the previous book become aware that the Janus AI from State of Chaos was only the opening gambit from a secret group of megalomaniacs determined to save the planet by reducing its population by a few billion people. And that’s not even the scary part!

These megalomaniacs have discovered that aliens—truly horrific monsters that inspired the Cthulhu mythos of H.P. Lovecraft—have visited our planet and they are trying to tap into the knowledge those creatures left behind to bring about their doomsday scenario. For most authors, that would be more than enough to drive his thriller, but J. K. Franks always takes his books to another level. He mixes modern science with Cthulhu and sends his teams to the remote corners of the world—the bottom of the Caribbean and the heart of Antarctica—to piece together the secret history of the planet’s first couple of billion years as his heroes try to understand how the monsters of the ancient past are returning to reek havoc today. Lots of authors have played with the Cthulhu mythos, but none that I am aware of have done anything like what Franks has pulled together in the Midnight Zone.

If you want a thriller that really pushes the boundaries of the imagination, get yourself a copy of the Midnight Zone.

I received this book for free from Audiobook Boom in exchange for an honest review.

Well constructed story line

Extremely plausible and well researched story. I really enjoyed the amount of research. The JK Franks puts into every book. Additionally, I enjoy stretching the current status of technology. Can’t wait for the next books. thanks.
