Historia
In Atlanta, Dr. Peyton Shaw is awakened by the phone call she has dreaded for years. As the CDC's leading epidemiologist, she's among the first responders to outbreaks around the world. It's a lonely and dangerous job, but it's her life - and she's good at it. This time she may have met her match. In Kenya, an Ebola-like pathogen has infected two Americans. One lies at death's door. With the clock ticking, Peyton assembles her team and joins personnel from the Kenyan Ministry of Health and the WHO.

Sometimes the worst storms aren't from Mother Nature, and sometimes the worst nightmares aren't the ones in our heads. Mike Mitchell, an average New Yorker already struggling to keep his family together, suddenly finds himself fighting just to keep them alive when an increasingly bizarre string of disasters starts appearing on the world's news networks. As both the real world and the cyber world come crashing down, bending perception and reality, a monster snowstorm cuts New York off from the world, turning it into a wintry tomb where nothing is what it seems.

Historia
In a locked Honolulu office building, three men are found dead with no sign of struggle except for the ultrafine, razor-sharp cuts covering their bodies. The only clue left behind is a tiny bladed robot, nearly invisible to the human eye. In the lush forests of Oahu, groundbreaking technology has ushered in a revolutionary era of biological prospecting. Trillions of microorganisms, tens of thousands of bacteria species, are being discovered; they are feeding a search for priceless drugs and applications on a scale beyond anything previously imagined.

It’s the largest oil spill in history: a crashed supertanker in San Francisco Bay. Desperate to avert environmental damage—and a PR disaster—the multinational oil company releases an untested “designer microbe” to break up the spill. It's an “oil-eating” microbe, designed to consume anything made of petrocarbons: oil, gasoline, synthetic fabrics, and of course plastic. What the company doesn’t realize is that their microbe propagates through the air....

The drought - or the Tap-Out, as everyone calls it - has been going on for a while now. Everyone’s lives have become an endless list of don’ts: don’t water the lawn, don’t fill up your pool, don’t take long showers. Until the taps run dry. Suddenly, Alyssa’s quiet suburban street spirals into a warzone of desperation; neighbors and families turned against each other on the hunt for water. And when her parents don’t return and her life - and the life of her brother - is threatened, Alyssa has to make impossible choices if she’s going to survive.

This new stand-alone survival thriller thrusts the most dynamic city on Earth, New York, into darkness as North America is bludgeoned by the sun's ferocity. Scientists promised a beautiful aurora providing the city that never sleeps with magnificent hues of blue and green. For three days, New Yorkers took to the streets, parks, and rooftops to enjoy the awe-inspiring spectacle. As the power grid failed, the city of New York collapsed with remarkable speed. The thin veneer of civilization was laid bare as man fought one another for survival.

ISIS delivered a devastating attack, crippling not just one city, as on 9-11, but the entire country. The government, while disbursing critical supplies, decided that this was an excellent time to consolidate power, and for one senator, the chance to lock in the presidency. An opportunity to bring the right-wing, anti-federal-government gun fanatics to heel. The government moved quickly to disarm the populace, using control of food and fuel as weapons, but things did not go quite as expected.

Resumen del Editor
What if bacteria turned all the gasoline in Los Angeles into vinegar? Carmageddon doesn't begin to describe it; Petroplague does.
UCLA graduate student Christina Gonzalez wanted to use biotechnology to free America from its dependence on Middle Eastern oil. Instead, an act of eco-terrorism unleashes her genetically-modified bacteria into the fuel supply of Los Angeles, making petroleum useless. With the city paralyzed and slipping toward anarchy, Christina must find a way to rein in the microscopic monster she created. But not everyone wants to cure the petroplague - and some will do whatever it takes to spread it.
From the La Brea Tar Pits to university laboratories to the wilds of the Angeles National Forest, Christina and her cousin River struggle against enemies seen and unseen to stop the infection before it's too late.
Set in the mountain-ringed Los Angeles basin, this terrifyingly plausible science thriller about good intentions, unexpected consequences, Peak Oil, climate change, experimental biofuels, and the astonishing power of microorganisms will give you pause every time you fill up your car.

Feels like a made for TV movie
Petroplague is an interesting variation on the biodisaster theme of microbes eating oil. Scientists working on microbial remediation for hard to extract oil deposits are the unwitting target of ecoterrorists that results in bacteria consuming gasoline as well as oil in the ground underneath Los Angeles. Natural gas and coal can still generate electricity, but cars become worthless. To make matters worse, the the pressure buildup from underground munching microbes creates earthquakes. A young graduate students races against time to save LA.
The science elements are well done and solid; both the strategy for improving oil recovery as well as the potential solutions that are sought. It's the overall story that has major deficiencies: there is simply too little offered to make the action believable. Even though individuals right now are able to DIY natural gas conversions of vehicles, segways become the only option for police. Only a single scientist (and his graduate student) work on this problem and can't envision the PR nightmare ahead. With LA quarantined, the US president can only offer food drops. One phone call from a biotech official about "having the cure" has the mayor offering assistance (as if no one else would be making similar claims). One phone conversation with an accusation of murder brings an immediate arrest warrant. One phone call initiates an arrest while there's a suicide victim hanging in the backyard. Finally, the slow crawl to the climax is one unlucky escapade after another. While the sci-fi elements are great and the overall plot is sound, there is simply too little flesh on the bones to make this a meaty morsel.
Finally, the narration is exceptionally suboptimal. The reading pace is slow with unacceptably long pauses between chapters. There is a severely limited range of voices with females performed especially poorly. To infuse some distinction, there are nasally renditions and almost comical accents that convey inappropriate impressions of the characters.

Fast Paced Science Thriller
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes I would. I will admit that some of the science went over my head but it was an enjoyable listen.
Who was your favorite character and why?
The mayor was pretty cool.
How could the performance have been better?
The narrator tried too hard on the female voices.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
There were several action scenes that were riveting. For instance, the scene in the police station where one of the good guys is in a handcuff chain with a bunch of bad guys. The chase scene with the police on Segways chasing an eco-friendly experimental car that only goes about 25 mph was funny.
