Summary

The breathtaking New York Times and USA Today bestseller!

Kira Miller is a brilliant genetic engineer who discovers how to temporarily achieve savant-like capabilities in all areas of thought and creativity. But what if this transcendent level of intelligence brings with it a ruthless megalomania?

David Desh left the special forces after his team was brutally butchered in Iran. Now he has been reactivated for one last mission: find Kira Miller, the enigmatic genius behind a bioterror plot that threatens millions. But when Desh learns that the bioterror plot is just the tip of the iceberg, he is thrust into a byzantine maze of deception and intrigue, and he becomes a key player in a deadly game he can't begin to understand - a game that is certain to have a dramatic impact on the future course of human history.

Good story, quiet reader

The reader was too quiet at times, the whispering especially made it hard to listen. But the story itself was guaranteed quality from Richards.

Meh

I'm not sure I've ever slammed a narrator but this one is bad. He whispers, as other reviewers have said, but worst of all there are times when you just can't differentiate between two characters in a conversation.
Anyway, the book is average with hints of Understand by Ted Chiang and The White Plague by Frank Herbert.
I'm afraid I just can't face the sequel since it has the same narrator. Frightened of looking to see if he has narrated any of the unread books in my library.😬
