Event Horizon

A Modern Thriller (Alex Fletcher, Book 3)

De: Steven Konkoly

Narrado por: John David Farrell

The critically acclaimed saga continues in the "explosive sequel"!

With Boston collapsing faster than Alex Fletcher predicted, his personal rescue mission deep into the heart of an increasingly unfamiliar city reaches a critical point. Pursued by a ruthless militia group and forced to navigate a treacherous landscape, he runs a gauntlet of grim decisions and impossible odds to reach perceived safety. Perceived because nothing is safe in the world emerging after the "event".

In rural Maine, a series of lethal coincidences fuels a local militia leader's ghastly strategy to raise a private army, planting the Fletchers firmly at the intersection of his power play - and the epicenter of his rage.

The human darkness released on August 19, 2019 continues to grow, threatening to tear the fabric of their fragile society apart...until nothing remains but a distant memory of the past.

Excellent read/listen

After having listened to the others in this series I've got to say Audible has a winning series going and from what I'm seeing more of the same type of adventures, keep them coming Audible.
The story continues with the same great characters and the narrator is very good at his job.
I highly recommend this if you've already listened to first in the series you can't go wrong with any of them.

Disappointing 1/3 (or less) of story

Would you try another book from Steven Konkoly and/or John David Farrell?

This is only 1/3 of story. Obviously editors are into making money and not releasing whole stories as one book. I've listened to Event Horizon and Perseid Collapse, both books just stopping in the middle of storyline. So the story is interesting and you should get it if you are made of money. Skip it if you are not made of money. I want to know how the story ends, but I'm reluctant to buy the next book because it will do the same thing: not finishing the story. I guess great books are a thing of the past.

Worth the read

Not as good is his first novel, but still worth the read. I enjoyed it, and will probably read the next one.

A very narrow look at the community.

I enjoy survivor stories to learn more about the ideas that might apply to me. The timing of this story is hard to believe. and drugs or not - humans need to sleep. Reader did a great job of defining the characters.

This is only the first half of a bigger book.

Writing is well done. Konkoly needs to get competent consultants when writing about technical topics like EMP, ham radio, aviation, etc. Also, this book has too much violence and not enough graphic sex. You can't really have one without the other. Finally, the story does not respect law and order: under the laws of the Soviet Republic of California, it is illegal for a minor to possess a firearm and use it to kill people. Protagonist Alex Fletcher is in violation of this law for allowing his son and daughter-in-law to handle firearms. As for the daughter-in-law, I seem to envision her as a healthy looking specimen without green eyelids, black lipstick, tattoos, purple hair, nose ring, or other piercings.

WHEN WILL THEY LEARN!!

Is there anything you would change about this book?

IF YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE A SERIES USE THE SAME NARRATOR THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE SERIES !!! WHY IS THAT SOOOOOOO HARD TO UNDERSTAND ?

Any additional comments?

NOT A TERRIBLE NARRATOR BUT NOT AS GOOD AS THE ONE WHO STARTED THE SERIES , I WOULD STILL RECOMMEND THIS BOOK THOUGH

Slightly better than book 1

But who knows how many more incomplete books in this series. Picked up both Book 1 and 2 at same time, excited for something similar to "Jakarta Pandemic"... and even using the same family. Didn't even bother to read the reviews... my mistake, first of all this is a series... which doesn't have natural end spots, rather he chooses the most intense spot to stop in both 1 & 2 and no end in sight. It is a fairly clean read, but the violence is WAY more intense than Jakarta and it plays heavily into the military role post event. This is slightly better than the first... writing not as sloppy and more about the family, less about Rambo. Better books than this: "One Second After," "Equipping Modern Patriots," "Objects of Wrath," "Cyber-Storm," "Swan Song," "Alas Babylon," "77 Days in September"... and "Jakarta Pandemic." If you have to choose a never-ending series... I like "The Survivalist Series" better. Wait until more of the books are out and wait for a sale, it wasn't horrid... just not worth a credit to be left dangling.

Great book! If you liked Book 1, get it

There's "hole" in the recording at 6:13:37, it seems to skip a few seconds - by no means does it hurt the story, or even detract. Just an error in the recording.

With that out of the way, this is a REALLY good book and can't wait for Book 3. Like book 1 it leaves you hanging and wanting more. If you liked Book 1 you'll like Book 2

good follow up.

this series is pretty good. you have to start with the Jakarta pandemic though to be able to grasp the whole story line. moving on to the next one in the series.

Glad I stayed with it.

After reading the first book in this series, I was hesitant to continue with this one. Alex, a combat soldier, was wishy washy about neutralizing a clear and present enemy and as a result, good people were killed.

I'm glad I decided to give this series one last chance. Book 2 is a clear contrast to the first. Alex has seen the errors of his ways and has become decisive and pro active in defending his family and friends.
