The best-selling Extinction Cycle series by Nicholas Sansbury Smith first introduced listeners to a world ravaged by an engineered virus that turned men into monsters. Humanity's only hope was not a cure, but another bioweapon. When deployed it killed 90 percent of the infected, but the remaining 10 percent transformed into even more terrifying creatures called Variants. Here's a collection of Extinction Cycle short stories that explore the human spirit and the fight for survival in the face of overwhelming odds from some of the leading voices in the post-apocalyptic genre.

fun side quests
Reviewed: 12-30-24
this is a fun set of stories that tells side stories within the Extinction world. They're not written by Nicholas Sansbury Smith but they hold a similar tone. Definitely worth the listen.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 363
Before you knew him as the king or the Immortal, he was Commander Xavier “X” Rodriguez—with ninety-six dives under his belt, the most experienced Hell Diver on the airship known as the Hive. Time after time, he dived through the electrical storms, returning with parts to keep his home in the sky. Then, on a jump into Hades, the most hostile environment in North America, he sacrificed everything for mission and team. They returned to the airship with the fuel cells needed to keep the Hive running, but X was left behind.

Nice short story
Reviewed: 12-10-24
this short story covers a bit of the time where X was in Hades. it's a great intro to seeing what he experienced and suffered through. would love to see this as a full book covering all of X's and Mile's adventures before joining back up with the crew.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 52
By the middle of the twenty-first century, the major powers on Earth had fallen into a second Cold War centralized in cyberspace. The US has made considerable strides in artificial intelligence by introducing the first ALICE system to the world. In an effort to catch up, China and Russia pooled their total AI resources, hoping their combined technologies would meet or exceed the American systems.

Continuing a great story
Reviewed: 11-12-24
The story that C.W. Lamb has put together in the AL:ICE series is fantastic. I love the way he shows how Jake thinks through each problem and how he continues to show that you can't save the world by yourself. All of the people and ALs that support along the way have shown how important it is to have those you trust around you.
Without ruining anything in the book, I love the ending and how we were able to see the most complicated of problems can have a simple solution. I can not wait for the next one in the series!

The Forerunner has decimated the Vanguard Islands in a surprise attack from the Trident warship. King Kade Long—seeing no alternative—accepts a peace deal, committing to a perilous mission with X, the “Immortal,” to activate weather-modification reactors at the poles. But as Kade and X set off, the fragile peace is threatened by Gran Jefe’s one-man guerrilla war against the psychopathic knight, General Jack. Meanwhile, halfway across the world, Michael and his family begin to settle into their new life in the Canary Islands, only to discover that it’s not the sanctuary they believed it was.

what a way to end the series.
Reviewed: 08-13-24
This has been my absolute favorite series and it's such a bittersweet ending. I've loved every one of the Hell Divers books and have listened to them multiple times. RC Bray was the best choice to voice this series. I only wish there was more time with X and the team. Thank you Nicholas Sansbury Smith for the amazing series and the emotions that came with. I will continue to tell all who will listen about this amazing story.
