About this listen

Matt Kerns, linguist, archaeologist and reluctant explorer from Beneath the Dark Ice and Black Mountain returns in his first full-time adventure. And this time he doesn't have Alex Hunter to save him when the stuff hits the fan.

When a fame-hungry scientist brings an impossible, living specimen of a creature long thought extinct back from the wild jungles of South America he unwittingly brings along a passenger. Something with the potential to destroy every living thing on our planet. The infestation begins, rapidly overtaking medical resources and resisting all treatment.

One woman knows the danger: Carla Nero, chief scientist of the Centre for Disease Control. She makes Matt an offer he can't refuse and together they join a team heading to the deep jungle in a desperate race to locate the hidden place where the specimen was taken. Only by finding the location of the specimen can the team – and the world – hope to uncover the secret of how to survive the ancient, horrifying parasite that has been released.

Join the team, as they must travel to the heart of the Amazon jungle to find a world within a world – a place fantastic, terrifying and deadly.

The book stopped abruptly, and at a point that was only tenuously logical at best. It's a very short listen, about half a full size novel and definitely not worth a credit

Was that it?

Maybe its my fault... I started the book and then it finished mid bike-ride as end of episode 1.
As an overall book , I would probably have given 4+stars... but to realise that it's only first part and have to use 2 more credits, then the value-for-money drops down drastically and I give it 2 stars.

:-(... sorry

Full credit for only 5 hours?
