"When you open the pages of a Michael Palmer novel, you know you are in the hands of a pro." -The Huffington Post

Great Book!

The Narrator makes the book so easy to listen to. Would definitely recommend him! I’ve always loved Michael Palmer’s story’s.

Very good

It's been quite a long time since a fiction really caught my attention and didn't represent an offence to one's intelligence. This one's really good.

"Reasonabley Resistant"

Certainly not a literary masterpiece, in fact, far from it. I reads along at a fair pace and is written in a straight forward workmanlike manner, which does not excite one for its skills in prose. Nevertheless, it was an OK book in it's genre, without getting too excited about it. I occasionally enjoy these types of semi medical sci fi stories about killer bugs, and if you do too, you will probably enjoy this well performed book as well.

I enjoyed that one

Good , interesting read. Great narrator. I hope to see more of Lou Welcome books. As good as two previous books

Would have been better without the cussing.

I liked the story, but could have been told without the cuss words. The rest was good.

Suspense and mystery

Palmer does a great job keeping the story going. Narrator performs the story with just enough variation to keep you listening with interest.

Good story but overly dramatic narration

The book was well written and I enjoyed the main character. The narration was a bit dramatic but not so much that I couldn't listen.
