Historia
What if all brain disorders were treatable? Few would lament the passing of dementia or autism, but what if the twisted mind of a sex offender or murderer could be cured, too? Or how about a terrorist or maybe a political extremist? What if we could all be "corrected"? Welcome to the Condition: The Complete Trilogy, a series of near-future fiction novels on the cusp of becoming a frightening reality.

Historia
This is the way the world ends...for the last time. It starts with the great red rift across the heart of the world's sole continent, spewing ash that blots out the sun. It starts with death, with a murdered son and a missing daughter. It starts with betrayal, and long dormant wounds rising up to fester. This is the Stillness, a land long familiar with catastrophe, where the power of the Earth is wielded as a weapon. And where there is no mercy.

It's fall 2007. A well-timed leak has revealed that the US government might have engaged in first contact. Cora Sabino is doing everything she can to avoid the whole mess, since the force driving the controversy is her whistleblower father. Even though Cora hasn't spoken to him in years, his celebrity has caught the attention of the press, the internet, the paparazzi, and the government - and with him in hiding, that attention is on her. She neither knows nor cares whether her father's leaks are a hoax and wants nothing to do with him.

Resumen del Editor
What if you knew an entire race of people was being systematically slaughtered but had to cover it up?
Fake news. Alternative facts. Truth, lies, damn lies, and statistics. Just who are we to believe? In this near-future dystopian thriller, that will be the United Nations Police “moderators”.
Thirty-year-old UNPOL officer Richard Warren has been embedded with the BBC, and not seeing eye-to-eye with journalist Sarah Dyer is just the start of his problems. News of an Ebola pandemic is being withheld, and when it’s discovered Sarah’s artistic savant brother is involved, Richard’s determination to get to the truth takes an unexpected turn. But what if the truth must never be known?
And Richard thought Sarah was a challenge. The very concept of right and wrong is about to be tested and in a way that’s going to make fake news look like quality journalism.

So how does he end up fleeing from one end of the world to the other, dodging government dragnets; evil, nightmarish monsters known as the Oni; good wizards; bad wizards; beautiful women; spies; and wizardly spells? Well, it is entirely the genie's fault....

There is a saying that when lovers fall out, a plane goes down. A Case of Exploding Mangoes is the story of one such plane. Why did a Hercules C130, the world's sturdiest aircraft, carrying Pakistan's military dictator General Zia ul Haq, go down on 17 August, 1988?
Was it because of: mechanical failure; human error; the CIA's impatience; a blind woman's curse; generals not happy with their pension plans; the mango season? Or could it be your narrator, Ali Shigri?

Mad scientists have never had it so tough. In super-hero comics, graphic novels, films, TV series, video games, and even works of what may be fiction, they are besieged by those who stand against them, devoid of sympathy for their irrational, megalomaniacal impulses to rule, destroy, or otherwise dominate the world as we know it. It’s just not fair. So those of us who are so twisted and sick that we love mad scientists have created this guide.

Still not sure
Narration was excellent. One of the best performances I’ve ever heard. Jonathan Keeble will be on my search list!
As for the story, I’m a bit undecided. Can’t say I’ve felt this way before. Some of it skipped around for lack of a better way of describing what I mean. It was interesting. I liked the way different religions and beliefs were talked about. I’m just on the fence about the overall story. Parts were really good. The writing was good. I love alternate timelines and universes and dystopian future fiction. This could possibly fall under all three. Still it wasn’t bad, wasn’t great, was just middle of the road for me. Maybe because I don’t feel it all came together in a cohesive way in the end. I’d still give this author another try. I was entertained.

Interesting, though provocative, and very creative
Interesting, thought provoking, and very creative. Really enjoyed the book. This book with a touch of work would make for a great Black Mirror style movie. This story has it all: magic, witches, nanotech, AI, gene editing, bio-warfare, and media/opinion manipulation. This is the first book I have read by Alec Birri, but I enjoyed it enough to add the first book of his other series to my list.

ALT Truths
The Story:
Birri is back with yet another story that will get you thinking, and wondering if this is really what is in store for us all in the future. Richard Warren & Sarah Dyer are out unwitting main characters in this book, and the first part of the book sees the relationship between the two build up. This story is full of so many plots and twists featuring bio warfare, and the political agenda for world peace. What I love most about Birri’s books is the sense of realness about it, how you can actually envision this world turing out this way – maybe it all ready is happening but the sheeple just can’t see discern it from all the fake new…. Definitely a book to get you thinking.
The Narrator:
Jonathan Keeble is back and once again a tremendous job of bringing Birri’s characters to life. I am do glad he was narrating this book as it is in keeping with the Condition Series. His ability to discern the characters was yet again flawless and the accents were on point. Once again the recording was crisp and clear, with no background or white noise, and the narration flowed seamlessly.
I received this audiobook as part of my participation in a blog tour with Audiobookworm Promotions. The tour is being sponsored by Alec Birri. The gifting of this audiobook did not affect my opinion of it.

Satisfying and thought provoking story
ALT TRUTHS is the fourth book I have read by the talented Alec Birri, but it’s the first of his books that I have read in print. I enjoyed The Condition Trilogy with my ears and was barely recovered from fan-girling over the amazing narration by Jonathan Keeble when the audio book of ALT TRUTHS published. JOY! Listening to ALT TRUTHS is just as satisfying as reading it.
Told in short, highly interesting chapters, ALT TRUTHS keeps the reader engaged and the story moving along at a fast clip. The character building happens quickly, too, so readers not only meet the main cast of characters, they also see them fleshed-out early on. This is not to say that Birri gives away the goods. Many of the characters are not exactly the what-you-see-is-what-you-get kind of people, so there are plenty of times that readers will be taken aback.
“Stop apologizing. Americans are so annoying like that.”
It is those “WHOA” moments that really force the page-turning pace to increase and induce some philosophical deep thinking for readers. Birri’s novel explores the what-ifs of savants, science, germ warfare, political agendas, and even mind control all in a very near future scenario (just barely futuristic given it’s only the 46th United States president in office, at times making it difficult to discern that the book is dystopian). Honestly, I had some trouble reconciling that some of the elements were feasible. Perhaps feasible is the wrong word – possible? Yes. Probable that soon? Doubtful to me. Sadly, fake news and bad cell signals are still a thing in the future, but there wasn’t a mention of selfies, so small victories there.
Birri’s writing is very good, and he does an excellent job with his descriptions of setting, allowing readers to visualize everything from the defunct amusement park and its West World-ish (original) occupants to the re-purposed military compounds and their hidden agendas. For those who are squeamish, look-out. Birri also masterfully and vividly describes the devastating and deadly effects of a virus that is ravaging the world. ICK! (But, ooooooh, so cool/gross/fascinating!)
ALT TRUTHS is divided into two parts, and it’s almost like they are two separate books. Where part one gives us realistic characters and a realistic world, part two dives deeply into the sci-fi realm and went a bit too out-there for me with the droids and the robots and the transcendental trips. Strangely enough, within the advanced technology, global crises, and conspiracies happening, ALT TRUTHS manages to infuse the strength of family bonds, romance, humor, and even witchcraft into this crumbling world. And it works! Admittedly, these elements work better in part one than part two, but the second half of the book does circle back around and grounds itself by the end for a satisfying and thought-provoking story.
ABOUT THE NARRATION: Jonathan Keeble could read a recipe card and I’d be hooked. In ALT TRUTHS, his performance of all the characters – male and female, young and old – is stellar. There is never confusion over who is speaking because Keeble manages to differentiate them so that each has a unique sound and cadence. However, for me, there’s nothing more delightful than an international accent, and sadly, there’s a lot less of that in ALT TRUTHS since so many important characters are American. I am less enamored of Keeble’s American accent, particularly Richard’s, which is supposed to be southern. (As a Texan, every time I heard “ma’am” mispronounced, it took me right out of the story.) I eventually acclimated to the peculiarities of the American accents, and Keeble knocks it out of the park with the others, so my fan-girl status is still firmly in place.
Thank you to the author and Audiobookworm for providing me an eBook and audio download in exchange for my honest opinion – the only kind I give.

A great creative journey
Alec Birri does it again in this fascinating story of government secrets, medical conspiracies and the human condition. A wonderful read full of highly memorable characters, international intrigue and a strong thought-provoking premise. The story was truly a journey that left me wanting to know more.
As with other audiobooks narrated by Keeble, I was far from disappointed. He as always delivers a stellar performance only he can deliver. Wonderful voice acting and brilliant pacing. I was kept interested throughout. Highly recommend!

Alt Truths
Getting fed information about viral diseases and pandemics can be quite scary, especially when these viruses are known to be widespread and very deadly. What would happen if someone knew more about the outbreak than they were telling the public? What if someone was trying to spread false news as a scare tactic to cover up something even bigger? Is that possible? Birri has an interesting—and quite frightening—perspective to government and the political prowess over war, which will leave readers questioning the lengths that man will travel to see a change in culture.
Richard Warren and Sarah Deyer are both truth seekers. Richard, a UNPOL officer has his cover blown after a mini explosion occurs while having coffee at the local café. Both Richard and Sarah are arrested and then bailed out by Richard’s boss, only to find himself at Sarah’s house with her family and a bunker full of nuclear weapons. What starts as mutual distaste for one another, surges into somewhat of a romantic relationship between the two. When Sarah’s autistic brother leads Richard to some questionable activity at the day center he frequents on the weekends, both Richard and Sarah agree to team up in search of the real story behind his cryptic drawings and personality changes. What is discovered to be a laboratory divested in curing the Ebola pandemic, turns out to be a cover for a much larger scheme that involves not only his boss, but even some individuals in powerful government and political positions. Only when they realize the severity of their discovery, do they find themselves in danger—danger of the genocide kind. Everyone states that they’ve not yet reached a war, but war has begun to wage on their consciences and they are faced to either speak out about what is happening or accept an alternate truth that they have been given.
Birri has a fantastic story, filled with creativity, originality and intriguing characters. The pace is very quick and the first few chapters may provide some difficulty with understanding; however, there is a turning point. Birri creates a sense of foreboding that leads up to a very detrimental plot meant to blatantly question the reader’s loyalty and ethical evaluation of themselves. The story appears to be written fairly well. Since this review compliments the audiobook, Keeble does provide a very speedy voice relay; but, it is enjoyable and differentiation in characters is present. If you are a reader of medical or scientific thrillers, this may be perfect for you.
An audiobook was provided to Turning Another Page by Audiobookworm Promotions and in no way affects the honesty of this review. We provide a five-star rating to Alt Truths by Alec Birri.

Best sick day I have had in a while.
Not feeling well enough to go to work yesterday, and feeling far to blah to do anything more energetic then Laying in bed and feeling like crap,May seen like a poor plan listening to a new audio book.
However This book was a perfect way to take my mind off my troubles.
I genuinely suck at trying to say why a book is great, without giving away spoilers.
This book had interesting people , that were believable and easy to relate to.
and anyone who has listened to an audio book should be able to tell that Jonathan Keeble, is one of the greats.
The story was just gripping, and made me think about politics in a new way.
I have received a free copy of this book and am writing this review voluntarily.
But i would gladly spent an audible credit,on the next book Mr. Birri writes.

Politics, love and the irony of life.
*I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.*
This book has an interesting and current topic that touches us all. Politics -like them or not- and love are the two things that influence our lives and decisions constantly.
The story started nicely and it seemed there would be much more to it. Although it was humorous and I agreed with what was stated in many ways, I kept thinking the last third had too many extra events that were not needed and getting distracted.
I did enjoy listening to it -the narrator was superb!- and would recommend it. Don't get me wrong, 3 stars is a high rating.
