Summary

For eons, the truth about human evolution has remained hidden.
Until now....

Extinction Code

Geophysicist Jack Greer believes he may finally have found the resting place of the meteorite that wiped out the dinosaurs 65 million years ago. A few miles off the Yucatán coast, Jack and a team of scientists tow an aging drilling platform over the impact crater with the aim of securing a sample. But buried deep beneath the earth lies a shocking discovery that threatens to shatter everything we think we know about our species.

A world away, geneticist Dr. Mia Ward receives a mysterious delivery from her former boss and mentor, Alan Salzburg. In it are clues of a dire warning hidden inside the human genome, one which foretells man's very extinction.

His instructions to Mia are simple: Keep the information safe and, above all, trust no one - words all the more chilling after Alan turns up dead. But who wrote the message and what does it mean? Only Jack Greer holds the answers, but can she reach him in time to save the human race?

Extinction Countdown

Dr. Jack Greer's startling discovery beneath the Gulf of Mexico proved to the world we were not alone in the universe. But when images from the Voyager One space probe reveal an alien doomsday ship hurtling toward the earth, the human race seems marked for extinction.

As news of the approaching ship spreads panic around the globe, signs of a sinister plot begin to emerge - one that threatens to unravel the already fragile fabric of society and everything Jack and Dr. Mia Ward have fought for.

But could a mysterious signal emanating from inside Greenland's ice sheet unlock the secrets hidden within our genome and prevent humanity's destruction?

From the frozen fields of Greenland to the bustling Indian subcontinent and the cobbled streets of Rome, the race is on to stop the deadliest countdown to extinction the human race has ever known.

Extinction Crisis

With the doomsday ship only days away from impacting the Earth, humanity's demise seems all but assured. In every corner of the world, news of the impending destruction has led to chaos, looting, and the collapse of the rule of law.

As the foundations of civilization crumble around them, Jack and Mia must race to find answers to perhaps the most important questions of all time. Why have the Ateans repeatedly eradicated life on our planet? And could the key to ending the cycle of extinctions be locked somewhere within the Salzburg Chromosome?

Unraveling the mystery will mean journeying deep into the heart of a perilous alien world and facing off against the very beings who created us.

The theory that our existence is part of an evolutionary trial is fascinating.

Nothing about this series was bad. Loves every minute of it and am looking forward to similar titles

Pacey

Short chapters and everyone a cliff-hanger! A decent listen but if you think the dialogue in the first half is a bit naff then brace yourself, it gets very cringy indeed. And when the baddy makes a speech there is a disappointing lack of Mwahahahaaa.
Good fun though, a real comic book boys own romp.

Fast paced entertaining listen

Stitching together some interesting new discoveries and ancient fringe hypothesise to create a fast moving tale. Enough science to give it a hint of plausibility. Entertaining listen.

Awful

Bad writing, no understanding of science or technology, overused tropes, laughable cultural stereotypes.
The performance was decent.

Load of drivel - another credit wasted

Just not good writing, the pace is so fast and so constantly going off on tangents like an inexperienced writer was just making it up as they went along.

A ship hundreds of millions of year old, mummified corpses, nonsensical plot lines.

I struggled at first with the narrator too. Not that he was bad just too softly spoken and monotone often.

I liked the initial premise of the book but it just got ridiculous. It felt like the author had no hard science background at all and it was just a high level romp that you had to completely suspend disbelief completely.

I bought the 3 book set and feel like I wasted a few hours trying to get into this.
