Resumen del Editor

Beginning of the End

They call it Pandoravirus. It attacks the brain. Anyone infected may explode in uncontrollable rage. Blind to pain, empty of emotion, the infected hunt and are hunted. They attack without warning and without mercy. Their numbers spread unchecked. There is no known cure.

Emma Miller studies diseases for a living - until she catches the virus. Now she's the one being studied by the US government and by her twin sister, neuroscientist Isabel Miller. Rival factions debate whether to treat the infected like rabid animals to be put down, or victims deserving compassion.

As Isabel fights for her sister's life, the infected are massing for an epic battle of survival. And it looks like Emma is leading the way....

ooof

Isabel is just dumb first they warn her about her sister so she goes in trying to get emotion out of her twin when they told her she wouldn't have any. then she goes and tells her older brother who then tells his wife. I understand telling family but the way she went about it could have just been like hey there is a virus that does cause brain damage and it's best to get prepared. instead she says it's the end of the world. there are better ways to spread knowledge. Noah because he's panicked doesn't take the time to calm and think rationally instead he sells all his bonds and holds to get money. sure I can understand that. what I would have done was rebuilt the whole basement by bricking up windows and boarding windows. sure getting food would be the next thing. don't just go to one store go to several. and instead of saying end of times I'd warn others by saying there is a disease that cause brain damage saying zombie makes people not wanting to believe you. once you warn others then finish all your prep. that's how I would go about it. consequences be darn with the no telling others rule. everyone deserves a chance to live.

I didn’t want it to end

I dip in and out of this genre, but this hooked me straight away. Really made you think out how government would handle a global epidemic.
Please listen to this book, you will love it.

Theory of consciousness

I’ve been listening to this genre of audiobook since I started my audible membership. This book (and hopefully this series) does not disappoint. Although the beginning might suggest it’s just another frozen virus exposed in Siberia zombie thriller, it’s far more than that.

By examining what a virus could damage to make someone behave like a zombie, the book’s author creates something believable. Loss of sense of self makes infection equal death on some level. While off of emotional response including to pain make the infected frightening. Swarm/pack behavior and out-group/in-group dynamics add a layer of philosophical depth.

Magnificent read.

Solid Apocalyptic Medical Thriller

For old school apocalyptic fans, a new book by the author of Arc Light, should be, well… something. I was a bit surprised when I heard that Eric L. Harry, a man who has released 4 books since his debut in 1994, was starting a series. The set up sounds a bit samesy… A deadly pathogen is released in the melting snow of Siberia that makes people turn violent and attack without fear of pain or death. It’s basically another “it’s kinda like a zombie but not” novel. When Pandora: Outbreak tries to be a apocalyptic novel, if feels like every other apocalyptic novel, but when it focuses on the science and the interesting relationship between the twin sisters, one infected and one not, it becomes a compelling read. It feels a bit bloated at times, like Harry took the long path on purpose, but despite that, as the reader, you don’t quite mind since the path is scenic enough to be interesting. For fans of apocalyptic medical thrillers, Pandora: Outbreak is a smart thriller that will keep you invested, but if your looking for a zombie shoot ‘em up or action packed survivalist story, there are other options that would better suit your taste.

This was only the second book I’ve listened to narrated by Morgan Hallett. While she won’t wow you with verbal gymnastics, her performance hit all the right notes. She took on the task of handling the twins wonderfully, managing to differentiate in ways that were true to their character. He voice and timing drew the listener in and kept them solidly implanted in the story. While Pandora: Outbreak probably won’t stand out among the glut of apocalyptic fiction it’s a solid enough entry, with fascinating science and a strong performance by the narrator, and worth the listen.

Different take but I enjoyed

It started a bit slow but was a refreshing take on the apocalypse. I’m now happily on to book 2. Good read and narration.

Pretty good

The main female character was a bit annoying- it’s difficult to tolerate a supposedly, highly intelligent person being dumb and not aware of the obvious.
I’m assuming the second book will actually have the crisis come to fruition. This first book was all about groundwork and a whole lot of stuff that almost might or might not maybe or maybe not happen.
The narrator did a very good job. Of course any human narrator is preferred over an AI virtual voice narrator. This narrator expressed appropriate tones and created appropriate emotions. She did a good job distinguishing characters and the male and female voices were done well. She did a fantastic job at making annoying characters actual Be annoying as well lol.

No action

A LOT of talk about what's GOING to happen, but nothing does. I made it a bit over halfway through before I let this one go

Eh

Interesting concept that was completely lost in the execution. There's not a lot of action, but there are many discussions about action. There are also way too many pages devoted to how the mind / brain works, along with numerous reminders of how pretty the protagonist and her twin sister are. I won't be buying the next installment.
