Description

The thrilling conclusion to The Extinction Files is finally here!

A code hidden in the human genome...will reveal the ultimate secret of human existence.

And could hold humanity's only hope of survival.

In 2003, the first human genome was sequenced. But the secrets it held were never revealed.

The truth was discovered 30 years ago, almost by accident. Dr. Paul Kraus had spent his entire career searching for what he called humanity's lost tribes - human ancestors who had gone extinct. When Kraus compared the DNA samples of the lost tribes with our own, he found a pattern of changes: a code. At the time, the technology didn't exist to unravel what it meant. To protect the secret, Kraus hid his work and disappeared. Now the technology exists to finally understand the mysterious code buried in the human genome, but finding the pieces of Kraus' research is more dangerous than anyone imagined.

Dr. Peyton Shaw and her mother have obtained part of Kraus' research - and a cryptic message that could lead to the remaining pieces. They believe his work is the key to stopping a global conspiracy - and an event that will change humanity forever.

The ultimate secret, buried in the human genome, will change our very understanding of what it means to be human. For Peyton, finding it may come at an incredible price. She must weigh the lives of strangers against those she loves: Desmond Hughes and her mother. With time running out, Peyton makes a fateful choice - one that can never be undone.

As infuriating as it is dull... the worst of Audible

This is part two but I’m really talking about both parts, since they are one story that was likely split in two by the publisher, if we give the benefit of the doubt to the author.

Never before have I been so angry and frustrated with a story I bothered to finish. And Audible Originals has some ghastly quality control. This thing should be exciting. It blends a global conspiracy, a global pandemic, a global scavenger hunt, science fiction and a commentary on humanity’s destiny and the dangers we face as a species.

But the storytelling is truly horrendous. Just awful. A few decent characters and a great idea do not a good story make. You can’t, or shouldn’t promise a big reveal of a single idea that most every character knows already, and stretch that out over two books. It’s one thing if the big reveal is a mystery the listener discovers bit by bit with the character, but towards the mid-way point of the second part, everyone knows the truth except the listener.

The decision to keep the truth from the audience, or at least leave the truth unspoken and unverified, is purely superficial. It’s manipulation and dishonest writing in the worst way. Padding one simple story needlessly to make it two books and sell more copies.

What makes the asides and science and backstories so terrible and the storytelling that much weaker is the fact that it’s all very stupid and patronizing. The characters and author speak about common philosophy and basic scientific principals as if they are insightful or groundbreaking.

It’s Michael Crichton if a high schooler was writing fan fiction. There’s no research into how something like Rendition or Rook could work, or fascinating insight into real science that people working in VR, nano tech or biotech are really doing. It’s lazy, repetitive and it’s boring.

The resolution isn’t quite as bad as I’d feared, but it’s morally dubious at best, and again, overly simple and mindless, while framing itself as enlightened and clever. It’s offensive to the senses.

This might be the worst book on tape I’ve ever finished.

The narration isn’t great either, because 3 of 6 main characters are women, and the voices for these characters are grating.

Seriously, do yourself a massive favour and skip this series completely.

Excellent conclusion to an engrossing series!

Eduardo Ballerini is an extremely talented narrator. I particularly enjoyed the way that Riddell builds this story layer by layer and memory by memory to its engrossing conclusion and still somehow manages to end with the ultimate mind-bender as his very last word.

okayish

Narration is better than the story itself. Interesting premise but too many cartoon characters for it to truly work.

I really enjoyed this series

Overall this was a very good series. The narrator was excellent.

One must definitely suspend disbelief but some of the scenarios do a a small ring of truth.

Loved the story. Made driving and housework a lot more pleasant. Enjoyed the characters but I found the ending came across as a bit of an afterthought
