The Dark Side

De: Greig Beck

Narrado por: Sean Mangan

Hundreds of thousands of miles away on the dark side of the moon, the Russian lunar base has self-destructed – all personnel are dead, except one. Olga Sobakin, the lone survivor, seeks refuge at the rival American base.

Olga tells the Americans her base was attacked by a horrifying and nightmarish creature. The pattern was the same – people vanished, leaving nothing behind but shredded clothing and an unidentifiable waste product. The Americans are sceptical of her story at first, but then people begin to disappear ...

Back on Earth, just before the American lunar base goes completely dark, a single message is received – ‘Lifeform’. Intercepted whisperings from Russian intelligence indicate a deadly spreading attack and a rising global threat. Escalated to priority one, there’s only one team up for the task.

Alex Hunter and his elite group of HAWCs are on a rescue mission to the desolate and darkest unknown. Who, or what, awaits them on the dark side?

my review of the dark side

the dark side entertaining but certainly not one of Beck's best and a little over long and repetitive

Lots of Screaming in Space

I was interested to see where things would go given how the last book ended. The Dark Side didn't disappoint. It not only delivered a fantastic follow-up to the cliffhanger at the end of book 8, but it also took Alex Hunter to the dark side of the moon for a John Carpenter-like adventure.

Always Entertaining

No one is safe and deaths are AWESOMELY detailed, along with the scientific data to back the story up. Love how the author uses real life events to make films/TV wonderful!

I was enjoying the story till chapter 42

A conversation was held in vacuum, which totally threw my absorption into the story out the window.

Otherwise, it really needs you to have listened to previous books in the series, otherwise, you will be confused.

Enjoying the story (still listening to it)

Exciting performance

I have read several of author Greig Beck's book, all have been excellent adventures. This is my first of the Alex Hunter series. I may have to backtrack to find out more about this unique hero. If you are new to the series, I assure you that this is a complete story. At no time did I feel as if I was in the middle of some other story. The Dark Side is excellent in my opinion and difficult to stop reading which is why I also recommend the Audible book performed by Sean Mangan.

Dark Side Of The Moon

I really enjoyed this book, great characters and the thing was something that Dr Matt Kearns would love. I did feel sorry for Sophia but I think she will reappear in another book. I hope that the next book is a is a collaboration between The Arcadian and Matt Kearns whilst dealing with the offspring of the thing they though the shuttle destroyed maybe even Joshua comes into his own. Again the narration was spot on Sean Mangan is the voice of The Arcadian.

Terrifying book, fantastic listen

Another fantastic Alex Hunter book. My favorite writer currently. I devour Griegs books. Like a great movie or great piece of music. You don't want to stop watching or listening but you don't want it to end either. Fan since the first book Beneath the Dark Ice. Greigs books just keep on getting better and better. Beneath the Dark Ice was one of those books you read and think, theres no way this guy is going to be able to pull off another books as interesting or frightening but he does. My favorite Greig Beck book is always the latest aa I havent gone on the thrill ride yet.

The Arcadian

I love these books! This one is just as good as the others. I would highly recommend it!

One complaint or question

the pronunciation of the word adversary. that's all just one word but used A Lot.

The Dark Side

Loved it and hope there will be more. I kept getting the next book to see what was going to happen to Alex.
