Level 26

Dark Origins

De: Anthony E. Zuiker

Narrado por: John Glover

Unlock a new level of fear. It is well known among law enforcement personnel that murderers can be categorized on a scale of 25 levels of evil, from the naive opportunists starting out at Level 1 to the organized, premeditated torture-murderers who inhabit Level 25. What almost no one knows - except for the elite unnamed investigations group assigned to hunt down the world's most dangerous killers, a group of men and women accounted for in no official ledger, headed by the brilliant but reluctant operative Steve Dark - is that a new category of killer is in the process of being defined. Only one man belongs to this group. His targets: Anyone. His methods: Unlimited. His alias: Sqweegel. His classification: Level 26.©2007 Anthony E. Zuiker (P)2009 Penguin

Loved it!

I read this book years ago and was glad to find it here!!! It's very interesting and VERY demented!!!

Fantastic immersive story!

Absolutely spine chilling with plot twists. It made traffic my favorite time of the day!

jaw dropped!

like WTFFFFF! it's a crazy, crazy story! listen immediately! Also the production was just top tier sound effects the orator! All of it was top tier and beautifully produced.

Thrilling & On the Edge

Level 26 has been one of the most riveting and exciting books that I have "read" in a long time. The book has interactive elements which you can pause when listening and experience online but my first time through I chose to just listen an didn't miss a beat. The book has you jumping at all the right spots and screaming in others.

Your hair will stand on end. The author did an amazing job on character development and I find myself wanting for another book in this series, but it is not that kind of tale. A series could end up like a movie's bad sequel.

I recommend this book to anyone that enjoys thrillers and being a bit on edge. It will have you checking not only your doors to ensure they are locked but looking for the boogieman in all the strange places.

Excellent story

I am so glad I decided to listen to this first book in the series. The storyline flowed smoothly with great amount of detail. John Glover is an Awesome narrator. From the beginning of the story he gave me the creeps whenever he voiced the nemesis of the book. I felt like he was in the same room with me. I recommend this book to anyone who is a fan of horror, crime, and suspense.

Cyber-bridges give creepy depth

Level 26 is a cross-platform experience; it's a book backed up by some wickedly creepy online content. Honestly, though, without the cyber-bridges, I probably would have given this book only three stars.

The book was created by the same guy who created the CSI television shows, and since I tend to like dark, gritty fiction, I liked this very much. That said, there wasn't a lot of character development, and everyone fits neatly into one little box; the good guys are all good, and the bad guys are bad, and the government is shadowy and cruel.

If you like books that are both creepy and gory, you'll like this. If you like police procedurals, you probably won't, because it requires a very strong suspension of disbelief, both in the abilities of the antagonist and the ham-handed attitudes and overall incompetence of law enforcement.

This book is the gory equivalent of chick-lit; light in plot and character development, heavy in timekilling fictional fun. I enjoyed the book and the online content VERY much, and look forward to the sequel.

A. E. Zuiker Fabulous

If there is a such thing as a level 26 killer please do not alert the public it would be a disaster.

Riveting

Really Loved this book. But be aware it is very graphic. I had to listen with head phones when kids were around. I highly reccomend!

Chilling

Spine chilling thriller! A book you hate yourself for liking because it was so gruesome and detailed, yet I couldn't stop listening.

Dark and lovely

I loved the book it keep me wanting to hear more and more. Thank you
