"Fight to survive."

The final book in the Great Dying series. After the unexplained deaths of all of the world's birds, fish and animals, both domestic and wild, the population had struggled to survive and order had disintegrated. Now, several years on, a new Sheriff and two police arrived in a small Vermont town to re-establish the law. But it won't be easy, as townsfolk go missing and wild theories emerge - like there just might still be bears in the countryside.

Jack Hill writes with an immediacy which draws in the reader quickly and the good characterization builds an empathy which ensures the desire to continue. This world post apocalyptic world without animals is not a nice place.. As the new Sheriff is told, "There's a strong chance you will die within the first six months."

Narration by Miles Meill is excellent, with perfect pacing, understanding of the text obvious in his delivery and individual voicing for each of the protagonists. A fine performance which really enhances enjoyment of the book.

My thanks to the rights holder who freely made available a complimentary copy on request from Audiobooks Unleashed. Whilst it is definitely better to have read the previous books in this series, Species could still be read as a stand alone.
