À propos de cet audio

A modern-day Lazarus is humanity’s last hope in a breathtaking novel about the absolute powers of good and evil by Dean Koontz, the #1 New York Times bestselling master of suspense.

Michael Mace, head of security at a top-secret research facility, opens his eyes in a makeshift morgue twenty-four hours following an event in which everyone perished—including him and his best friend, Shelby Shrewsberry.

Having awakened with an extraordinary ability unlike anything he—or anyone else—has ever imagined, Michael is capable of being as elusive as a ghost. He sets out to honor his late friend by helping Nina Dozier and her son, John, whom Shelby greatly admired. Although what Michael does for Nina is life changing, his actions also evoke the wrath of John’s father, a member of one of the most violent street gangs in Los Angeles.

But an even greater threat is descending: the Internal Security Agency’s most vicious assassin, Durand Calaphas. Calaphas will stop at nothing to get his man. If Michael dies twice, he will not live a third time.

From the tarnished glamour of Beverly Hills to the streets of South Central to a walled estate in Rancho Santa Fe, only Michael can protect Nina and John—and ensure that light survives in a rapidly darkening world.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“Koontz's latest thriller is superbly narrated by Edoardo Ballerini.… Narrating largely from Mace's point of view, Ballerini portrays him as an unflappable, stoic loner who helps a single mother and her son escape the grasp of the boy's father, a vicious L.A. gangbanger…. Ballerini's performance of the cat-and-mouse game between Mace and Calaphas is riveting.”AudioFile Magazine, Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award

“A master of the suspense thriller genre, After Death is still another brilliant, original, memorable, and entertaining novel [from] master storyteller Dean Koontz. Deftly narrated by voice actor Edoardo Ballierini, …[this] will have a special appeal for fans of conspiracy thrillers and science fiction adventures.”Midwest Book Review

“Koontz has always had near-Dickensian powers of description and an ability to yank us from one page to the next that few novelists can match.”Los Angeles Times

A Fine Adventure

Well paced, interesting characters, entertaining. Definitely worth a credit. I do feel that Mr. Koontz could have developed a better story around the concept. There are also some loose ends that need to be worked on.

Interesting Concept: bio-technology

Dean Koontz is a genius. This is a story that I needed to hear. Without giving anything away, this book gives characters to to cheer for, dissects evil, has huge imagination woven into this novel and enchants with back story, dialogue and insights.

This one is a Winner!

The story starts off quite interestingly as the protagonist is introduced and details of his abilities are revealed. Although, about halfway on it takes a change to something that resembles a TV series where they need some filler episodes. The end seemed a bit phoned in.

Started off with a very intriguing story/ premise

I enjoyed the story and the telling of it. It took a while to understand what the story was as it took a meandering course through the slums and gangland world to get to where it was going but all in all it was worth the (read) listening to.

Entertaining and un-predictable

Never developed or captured reader. Pretty awful. I expected much more from Dean Koontz but was left wanting more from this story.

The story had potential

I normally like dean koontz but I couldn't get the gist of the story, as the narrator was pretty much same tone while reading

the narrator he was horrible

Not his usual flare. Starts off good with a plot that holds promise, then peters out to fillers and boring long useless descriptions.

Boring
