After Death

De: Dean Koontz

Narrado por: Edoardo Ballerini

A modern-day Lazarus is humanity’s last hope in a breathtaking novel about the absolute powers of good and evil by Dean Koontz, the #1 New York Times bestselling master of suspense.

Michael Mace, head of security at a top-secret research facility, opens his eyes in a makeshift morgue twenty-four hours following an event in which everyone perished—including him and his best friend, Shelby Shrewsberry.

Having awakened with an extraordinary ability unlike anything he—or anyone else—has ever imagined, Michael is capable of being as elusive as a ghost. He sets out to honor his late friend by helping Nina Dozier and her son, John, whom Shelby greatly admired. Although what Michael does for Nina is life changing, his actions also evoke the wrath of John’s father, a member of one of the most violent street gangs in Los Angeles.

But an even greater threat is descending: the Internal Security Agency’s most vicious assassin, Durand Calaphas. Calaphas will stop at nothing to get his man. If Michael dies twice, he will not live a third time.

From the tarnished glamour of Beverly Hills to the streets of South Central to a walled estate in Rancho Santa Fe, only Michael can protect Nina and John—and ensure that light survives in a rapidly darkening world.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Koontz's latest thriller is superbly narrated by Edoardo Ballerini.… Narrating largely from Mace's point of view, Ballerini portrays him as an unflappable, stoic loner who helps a single mother and her son escape the grasp of the boy's father, a vicious L.A. gangbanger…. Ballerini's performance of the cat-and-mouse game between Mace and Calaphas is riveting.”—AudioFile Magazine, Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award

“A master of the suspense thriller genre, After Death is still another brilliant, original, memorable, and entertaining novel [from] master storyteller Dean Koontz. Deftly narrated by voice actor Edoardo Ballierini, …[this] will have a special appeal for fans of conspiracy thrillers and science fiction adventures.”—Midwest Book Review

“Koontz has always had near-Dickensian powers of description and an ability to yank us from one page to the next that few novelists can match.”—Los Angeles Times

Wishful thinking

I don’t agree with other reviewers. I’m one sense love the way he writes never talks down to his reader but in the other sense he has made his character a judgement of all mankind. No one being has a right to be judge the way this character has no matter how right he is. This makes him a dictator. BTW never wrote a bad review of his books before.

OMG!

I loved every minute of this book. I was on constant alert. I believe that most of it is true or very close yo truth. LOVED IT!

Good but....

Am I the only one that felt like it should've been more? I felt like there wasn't enough information to actually get enjoy tthis book. Just wanted more....

Brilliant!

Missed you, Mr. Koontz. So glad you’re back! Can’t wait for your next release. Hope it’s not a year away….

another good Dean Koontz book!

I have been a fan of Dean Koontz for a long time. I can't say that this is his best book, but it's pretty good. I think the story took a while to get my attention, but it eventually did and then I couldn't stop listening. The reader was excellent!

Yep!

I actually had to check and make sure I hadn't changed audio books midway. I feel like you could of added Bigfoot to the story and it would of made as much sense.
