The Brainrush Trilogy: Box Set

De: Richard Bard

Narrado por: R.C. Bray

Over 2,000 5-star reviews! Called "A Terrifically Entertaining Thriller!" by Publishers Weekly, Book-1 of the Brainrush series was named The Wall Street Journal #1 Bestselling Action/Adventure in their "Guide to Self-Published Big Sellers", while Book 2 held a death grip on the #1 or #2 slots of the Amazon Top-Rated (best reviewed) Mystery/Thrillers list for 10 straight months. This set the stage for the blockbuster release of the final book in the trilogy, which was heralded by Suspense magazine as "part science fiction, part thriller, part suspense, part love story, and part mystery. It's got it all and that's what makes this novel one of the best."

Before he slid into the MRI machine, Jake Bronson was just an ordinary guy with terminal cancer. But when an earthquake hits during the procedure, Jake staggers from the wreckage a profoundly changed man, now endowed with uncanny mental abilities. An ocean away, Luciano Battista wants a piece of Jake's talent. Posing as a pioneering scientist, the terrorist leader has been conducting cerebral-implant experiments in a sinister quest to create a breed of super jihadist agents...and Jake's altered brain may be the key to his success. But Jake refuses to play the pawn in an unholy war - and when an innocent woman and autistic child are taken hostage to force his cooperation, he embarks on a jihad of his own.

Jake and his band of loyal friends are thrust into a deadly chase that leads from the canals of Venice through Monte Carlo and finally to an ancient cavern in the Hindu Kush mountains of Afghanistan - where Jake discovers that his newfound talents carry a hidden price that threatens the entire human race.

The wild ride continues from the beaches of California to a raging underground river in Mexico, the rain forests of Venezuela, the Mediterranean coast, the Swiss Alps, and finally to a secret southeast Asia island, where Jake must lever every scrap of his failing brain to prevent an apocalyptic disaster.

Action Packed Sci-Fi At Its Best!

Brainrush Trilogy: Box Set by Richard Bard, is wonderfully action packed sci-fi Audible, that contains 3 Books in one set So, it's a really great value. I've listened to the first book in the set and am about to begin the 2nd. The book is narrated by the very talented R.C. Bray, who gives voice to each of the interesting cast of characters and expertly brings them to life. I highly recommend this exciting trilogy.

Wasn’t what I had hoped

I would have liked a lot more SF. That is why I chose it. The main reason it was tough to get through was my preoccupation with the way Mr. Bray pronounced words like hadn’t, couldn’t, didn’t, wouldn’t. It drove me nuts. I am willing to say that it is my problem, not his, but those words were not said correctly. It was like hearing Bush2 say nuc-u-ler. I winced whenever he said any of them.

Wonderful, Thrilling and Unique

I love this series! I selected this trilogy solely because it was narrated by R.C. Bray, but what a find! This author is now in my favorites!

Good value, but not for me.

This omnibus is a good value, but the story is a bit immature and predictable. The narrator does a great job. The story and characters just didn't do anything for me. I didn't hate it, but I would have if I bought the books separately.

Zero storyline

Narration is great but there’s just no story it’s just fight after fight with nothing in between and no development at all. Book one is 3 1/2 stars but book 2 is two stars and couldn’t even make it to book 3
