Historia
A smallpox epidemic begins in a whisper with a single death, and then the name of the victim surfaces: Abdulaziz al-Sherhi. In a nation rich in imagination, this name requires none at all. In the weeks that follow, the epidemic fears crescendo into a national roar. People panic about dying from this horrific terrorist-incited disease and clamor for a vaccination. Maggie Rider, a weary road warrior for a high-tech company, submits to the shot only to realize this is no ordinary immunization.

Beware of Technology
Revisado: 06-22-18
I listened to a free copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review. I enjoyed this book it was an great listening experience. It is centered around a husband and wife leading the charge to take down big brother as the government seeks to implant a tracking device in every human being under the guise of mandatory vaccinations. The book is filled with many interesting good and bad characters. This book is another painful reminder of the advances in technology and where we could possibly be heading. The narrator did a good job.

Shadows of Africa Review
Revisado: 06-05-18
I received this book free for an honest review and honestly I enjoyed it. I loved the way the men in this special task force bonded and depended on one another, while getting the work they loved done. I did chuckle to myself when the narrator read conversations between the men and their wives. I will definitely look for some other works by this author.

Historia
Rebecca and Daniel have never met. A 15-year-old preacher's kid and a 16-year-old atheist outcast, they appear to have little in common. And yet they both have attracted the attention of a recruiter for Angel Island, where bad kids go to be remade-or destroyed. Agents of the all-powerful New America Unity Church will stop at nothing to get them. They're building an army, a modern children's crusade, in which Rebecca and Daniel may be just the kind of future leaders they need. If not, they might be just the kind of sacrifice necessary to keep the rest of the faithless in line.

Steele Msystery Trilogy review
Revisado: 02-10-18
What did you like best about Alexander Steele Mystery Trilogy? What did you like least?
I liked the relationship between Steele and his girlfriend and the fact that he solved the mysteries so fast. The stories were so short that there really wasn't much time for me to follow the clues and try to solve the crime myself.
What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)
The endings of each storey certainly weren't predictable.
Have you listened to any of Alistair Dryburgh’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No I never heard him perform before. Although he had a great voice for this book, I thought he could have slowed down a tad bit.
Do you think Alexander Steele Mystery Trilogy needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
I think he should do a follow-up book with longer stories. Longer stories will give the reader a chance to try to solve the crime before Steele does.

Historia
In the not-too-distant future, the United States loses its status as a world Superpower. With the military cut to a barebones level and American leaders focused solely on the nation's internal struggles, the door will open for new powers to emerge on the world stage. In the wake of this power vacuum, China and Russia begin to flex their military muscles and expand their dominance in the world. They have the most up-to-date technological innovations ready for battle: railguns, unmanned drone tank vehicles, exoskeleton suits, and cyber warfare.

Prelude to World War III
Revisado: 02-04-18
What did you love best about Prelude to World War III?
The book makes you think, worry and be relieved that the book is fiction. Then it made me worry again because terrorist attacks are real these days. I came to the realization that the stage has already been set ?
Who was your favorite character and why?
Henry Stein was my favorite character; I deemed him the good guy.
What does Alex Hyde-White bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
The narrator was a perfect fit for this book. I think his reading made the drama in this book pop a little more.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I live in New York so the last scene really moved me. A lot of scenes made me shake my head in disbelief but when home is hit, fiction feels real.
Any additional comments?
I enjoyed the book I received for free in exchange for an honest review. As the title suggests, the premise is quite disturbing, however the book worked and is pretty good. It jarred me to think about what could happen in the future and it made me happy that it has not happen yet. I plan on listening again.
