About this listen
In a society where social credit scores dictate worth, the Newman family faces a waking nightmare when their low score lands them in a sixty-day house arrest. Trapped in their home, they're bombarded by an AI named Babble, through their government-controlled "smart devices," indoctrinating them with progressive values. As their resources dwindle, their struggle for survival takes a terrifying turn when they clash with the "Bulls of Bashan," a group of radicals intent on eliminating those deemed unsafe.
In The Fear Protocol, Brad Newbold crafts a gripping dystopian tale probing the consequences of an ideology equating beliefs with violence. With pulse-pounding suspense and timely social commentary, this novel challenges listeners to confront the dangers invading our world, and the erosion of truth in the pursuit of societal acceptance. Prepare for a riveting journey as the Newman family fights for their humanity against forces determined to erase it.

Story
Five years into a multi-decade deep space mission, a team of eight scientists—four women, four men—explore a dwarf planet near the Kuiper Belt, loading soil samples, rocks and artifacts onto their spaceship, Gretel. Inadvertently, they bring aboard a stowaway, an unseen entity which has grown exponentially in a very short time, and is trying desperately to escape from Cargo Hold 4. The ungodly howling, hammering and screeching coming from the hold on Gretel becomes unbearable, affecting the crew's sleep and work cycles, and threatens the integrity of the ship itself.

Story
Franc Sousa's life is virtually perfect. In a future San Francisco, where the most important determination of success is the quality of the computer chip inserted in your nervous system, Franc has the best. His chip provides him instant access to all the information and entertainment the world has ever produced, and to a virtual game environment that feels more real than his actual life. But when an accident dislodges his chip, he begins to question everything he's ever known. He can't accept the doctor's explanation that the beautiful girl he saw after his accident was only a hallucination.

Story
In a future where the Earth has been savaged by overpopulation and over-farming, robots are considered more valuable than humans, and sand must be altered to create artificially fertile soil. Ex-convict Knowle Noland, the hallucinating sea captain of the Trieste Star, finds himself wrapped up in a plot to incite a global war that will wipe out millions. War, it seems, is the only way to drastically reduce the population and create a better world for those who survive.

Story
When betrayal cuts his plans of freedom short, Ex stands to gain more than what he has to lose by helping a mysterious and equally dangerous woman escape from the clutches of zealots. But even after throwing every caution aside, he can barely stay on this enigmatic stranger's trail. He must wonder, is he helping or holding her back? In his twenty years, Ex has never let Mars beat him. Not after being cast out or when he watched a loved one die.

Born to a Magical Fantasy Princess and a nine-to-five Supervillain in the most superhero riddled city in the world, Perry's never felt...adequate. He's got no talent for magic, and not a scrap of superpowers to his name. When The System boots and unlocks his powers, it forces him to follow in his father's footsteps, but he'd rather take after his mother... Maybe there's a way he can do both...

Dang! This is scary….and funny!
So I started listening to this and it seemed a little wild. But it was entertaining and the story was interesting and I persisted. At first I thought the narrator sounded a bit AI - ish but after I got into the story, it really worked. This story is written in a way that’s both horrific and humorous. The author has nailed the source of what’s wrong with America today. When you follow the story (and the American story) to the natural conclusions, the result is terrifying. It definitely gives you lots to think about. Read this book. It’s not a waste of your time.

Thrilling!
It seemed like a very realistic story that could possibly happen in the near future. Felt like I was watching a Hollywood blockbuster hit!

The best book I’ve ever written
Please don’t blame me if this all comes true. As far as I know I’m not a prophet.
