Andy Marino
Acerca de esta escucha
From the bizarre and audacious imagination of horror author Andy Marino comes a harrowing tale of the insect that will herald the apocalypse…
"The literary equivalent of swallowing a wasp that's crawled inside your Coke can. Do yourself a favor and read this book."–Nick Cutter, author of The Troop
"Creepy, crawly, and endlessly dark, this is Marino's best novel yet."–Gabino Iglesias, Bram Stoker award winning author
It begins with cicadas. It will end with the swarm.
When a bizarre murder case lands on the desk of Detective Vicky Paterson, it's just the start of her nightmare. On the same day, her young daughter, Sadie, is swarmed by cicadas emerging off-cycle from their seventeen-year pattern. Sadie barely survives, and her condition is critical.
Across town, Will and Alicia, two dysfunctional private investigators, are on the trail of a missing girl and the shadowy cult involved in her disappearance. But after the first wave of insects hit, they are forced to barricade themselves in a motel where they must work together with a group of strangers to outlast the invasion.
Soon the infestation is impossible to contain. Humanity rests on the knife's edge of extinction. And there is a terrible purpose behind the emergence–one that Vicky, Will, Alicia, and a small group of unlikely allies must unravel if they are to survive.
"Marino's work is unlike any other's in the genre–horrifying, complex, fascinating, and utterly unique."–Hannah Whitten, New York Times bestselling author
"Relentless, brutal, and brilliant. An apocalyptic tour de force."–Craig DiLouie, author of How to Make a Horror Movie and Survive
"Marino has taken the safety of sensations away from me. Every prickle along my arm, the slightest buzz anywhere near my ear–it's all fodder for nightmares now. Suggesting your skin will crawl after reading this unnerving novel doesn't come close. Your flesh will fly away."–Clay McLeod Chapman, author of Ghost Eaters

Historia
High up on the windswept cliffs of Pale Peak, Faye and Felix celebrate their new engagement. But soon, a chorus of ghastly noises erupts from the nearby woods: the screams of animals, the cries of children, and the mad babble of a hundred mournful voices. A dark figure looms near the windows in the dead of night, whispering to Faye. As the weather turns deadly, Felix discovers that his terrified fiancée isn't just mumbling in her sleep—she's whispering back.

Historia
The red night of bells heralds global catastrophe. Annihilation on a biblical scale. Seeing the morning is no blessing. The handful of scattered survivors are confronted by blood-red skies and an infestation of predatory horrors that never originated on earth. An occupying force intent on erasing the remnants of animal life from the planet. Across the deserted landscapes of England, bereft of infrastructure and society, the overlooked can either hide or try to outrun the infernal hunting terrors. Until a rumour emerges claiming that the sea may offer an escape.

Historia
This forest isn't charted on any map. Every car breaks down at its treeline. Mina's is no different. Left stranded, she is forced into the dark woodland only to find a woman shouting, urging Mina to run to a concrete bunker. As the door slams behind her, the building is besieged by screams. Mina finds herself in a room with a wall of glass, and an electric light that activates at nightfall, when the watchers come above ground. These creatures emerge to observe their captive humans and terrible things happen to anyone who doesn't reach the bunker in time.

Henry is a brilliant engineer who, after untold hours spent in his home lab, has achieved the breakthrough of his career—he’s created an artificially intelligent consciousness. He calls the half-formed robot William. No one knows about William. Henry’s agoraphobia keeps him inside the house, and his fixation on his project keeps him up in the attic, away from everyone, including his pregnant wife, Lily.

Historia
Father Silence once terrorized the rural town of Twisted Tree, disguising himself as a priest to prey on the most vulnerable members of society. When the police finally found his House of Horrors, they uncovered nineteen bodies and one survivor–a boy now locked away in a hospital for the criminally insane. Nearly two decades later, Father Silence is finally put to death, but by the next morning, the detective who made the original arrest is found dead. A new serial killer is taking credit for the murder and calling himself the Outcast.

Marshall is still trying to put the pieces together after the death of her husband. After she is involved in a terrible accident, her editor sends her to the small, backwards town of Raeford to investigate a clearly ridiculous rumor: that a horse has given birth to a healthy, human baby boy. When Marshall arrives in Raeford, she finds an insular town that is kinder to the horses they are famous for breeding than to their own people. But when two horribly mangled bodies are discovered in a field—one a horse, one a human—she realizes that there might be a real story here.

When two marines and their corpsman reunite after a decade apart, they find themselves caught up in the mystery of their former squad leader’s disappearance. With little more to go on than a handful of disturbing charcoal sketches and the whispers of a local legend, they plunge into the depths of one of America’s last truly wild places. But the trees themselves begin to whisper dark secrets. Secrets of trafficking and violence. Of rotten science and blood. Of something else that lurks in the shadows of the pines—something ancient, savage, and hungry.

A strange plague called the "Gets" is decimating humanity on a global scale. It causes people to forget - small things at first, like where they left their keys... then the not-so-small things like how to drive, or the letters of the alphabet. Then their bodies forget how to function involuntarily - and there is no cure. But now, far below the surface of the Pacific Ocean, deep in the Marianas Trench, an heretofore unknown substance hailed as "ambrosia" has been discovered - a universal healer, from initial reports.

Reseñas de la Crítica
"Moving with the relentlessness of a winged insect coming straight for your face, Andy Marino's The Swarm is a fiendishly compelling assault on the senses. Its procedural elements are reminiscent—in all the best ways—of horror classics like The Wolfen or The Manitou, while its more apocalyptic scenes are as thrilling as the best that subgenre has to offer. This is a weird, wild ride you'll want to revisit more than once every seventeen years."—Nat Cassidy, author of Nestlings
"Relentless, brutal, and brilliant! Andy Marino's The Swarm reads like an apocalyptic tour de force, a Michael Crichtonesque fever dream that goes all the way with its terrifying premise. A five-star read."—Craig DiLouie, author of How to Make a Horror Movie and Survive
"The literary equivalent of swallowing a wasp that's crawled inside your Coke can, The Swarm is a burst of bright, unexpected, feverish prose blazing straight across your brain-pan. If you like that kind of thing (and I very much do) then do yourself a favor and read this book."—Nick Cutter, author of The Troop

After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Connie can't deny she's nervous about meeting her boyfriend's family. Spending the weekend at their ritzy woodland summer home, Evan's already given her fair warning that his parents are cold, snobbish, and especially unpleasant toward those outside their usual social circles. So when Evan's mother warmly greets them with open arms, Connie is as confused as he is. They're so friendly, in fact, Evan himself can hardly believe they're real. Then, while helping Evan's mother with dinner, Connie overhears strange noises coming from the basement—what almost sounds like voices calling out for help.

Creepy and Fun with a Sci Fi Bent
The narrator in this one was terrific! The book itself gets a little bogged down in the details of what’s happening rather than the emotion and thrills, but still has a bunch of tense, scary moments and satisfying character work

Not Great, but Decent
There is a bug invasion. The book has significant sci-fi, horror, and spiritual elements. I liked how much the author leaned into the horror without cop-outs for people you would expect to be somehow exempted from cruel fates, but the sci-fi elements and spiritual elements were just too jarring when they suddenly appeared, and they were never explained. There is some technology that is clearly sci-fi despite the present-day setting, yet the origin of this technology is never explained.
Ms, Fitzgerald does an adequate job as narrator. It took me a while to grow accustomed to her narrating style. At some points, her performance and voice affect was a bit too "smoky," almost as if she was narrating an erotic novel rather than a horror novel. On balance her performance was decent, but not great.
Overall, the book is a decent read. It never really captivated me, It's not a 5 star or 4 star book, more of a 3.5. Kudos for the originality though.

Better and Better
What starts off as eerie and off-kilter happenings in the search for a missing girl slowly unfurl into a planet encompassing machination.
Marino may not wax poetic in order to transport the reader into chittering cityscapes but his prose truly capture the small details within frightening moments and slows them down to a degree where you find yourself hoping that the car crashes, the stomach splits and the eyes finally close.
Anything, if only the scene will change.

What a mess!!!
With over 150 audio books in my library, this is the second book I've ever DNF...
The story is dry with two unlikable main characters (the ex-couple) the story jumps around but only one story line is worth listening too (the police officer). The sci-fi religious element of the story didn't work at all. The narrator was pretty good but she was given nothing to work with... they're other bug creature feature story out there.
