Book 1 of Plague Wars - listen to it or Book Zero, The Eden Plague, as your introduction to the best-selling apocalyptic military sci-fi thriller series.

When U.S. Marine Sergeant Jill Repeth's blown-off legs begin to regenerate, she thinks it's a medical miracle. But the breakthrough that's healing her war injuries is exactly what the government desperately wants to contain - by any means necessary. Hunted, she must cross an America wracked by strife, to try to find a family who may already be dead, searching for the inhuman secret of what started it all.

Reaper's Run is an origins story and apocalyptic novel, the beginning of one warrior's journey from tactical cop to freedom fighter and beyond. It leads the listener into the acclaimed Plague Wars military science fiction series.

Would have preferred female reader as main character is female - volume kept fading slightly in and out and was distracting

enjoyed

I would have liked to listen to this in one sitting, but kept being interrupted.

I wasn’t even thinking of the irony of my title until I started to write up my review. Reaper’s Run follows Jill — a Marine who has had her legs blown off while fighting for her country. Jill was quarantined on a cruise ship with other “Sickos” who they think had the Eden Plague. I won’t go into too much more detail so I don’t spoil the story — but the story follows her as she tries to figure out what life will be like now that the world has turned upside down.

Sometimes a book just falls a bit short and it’s really no one’s fault. Sometimes you hear about a series or you see a synopsis or cover on Amazon or Audible that just really catches your eye and the book isn’t what you were expecting. I try to go into books with as open of a mind as someone can — and I did that with Reaper’s Run. But it just wasn’t exactly the story for me.

The funny thing is that I liked the story, but I didn’t love it. That’s why I’m giving it three stars. It was a good story with a good plot and a seemingly enjoyable main character. She seems a little green and a little bit too caring (and forgiving) to be the typical bad-a “chick” fighter. I’m not sure if that was a choice by VanDyke or if that’s just how her character played out.

I’m a little intrigued to read the first book. I would love to hear a little bit more about the virus/plague and figure out how it was released and by whom, but I don’t know when I’ll get around to reading it.

The narration for Reaper’s Run was done by Artie Sievers who does a pretty good job. I’m not sure what the wood knocking noise was for (I assume it’s when an author puts in the ellipses or stars in a book to signify a change of character or time). But, it ended up being kind of distracting. A lot of times it would have been obvious that time had passed and the story was just moving on. But a few times I did think it was helpful as it was moving the story along at a quick pace. The only other knock that I’ll give Sievers is that there were basically three voices for characters: a normal everyday speaking voice, a slightly higher pitched voice for Jill, and then a hick-ish sounding voice for pretty much everyone else. It made it hard to pick out different characters. Overall, Sievers did a good enough job that I didn’t stop listening to the story, but there is room for improvement.

Overall, Reaper’s Run was a semi-enjoyable story. There were parts that I liked and some that I didn’t like. It’s the first take it or leave it story I’ve read in a while.

A book that fell a bit short

I'm not a fan of dystopian future books. But I like this story. The characters seem relatable

This story better than the first one.

The book was well written and through most of it had a good depth of detail to keep the listener/reader engaged. However the last couple of chapters seem like a hasty end and left far too much unresolved.

Good book, performed well, Just ends abruptly

The story got intense enough in a couple spots that I had to put it down to let my pounding heart stay in my chest! I can't wait to read/listen to Book 2. Too bad about Python but it was a good end.

Damn! What a Great Story!

Very good storyline would. What would happen if one day you or I were on the rightside of tha law, then no fault of our own, the status quo abruptly changed? Now imprisoned seems to be too good for us. in short order all we grewi up believing in isn't anymore and we are societies created a fear. What would happen?

A techno thriller worthy of your time and miine... just to answer some fears ... What would happen?

It was fine, enjoyed it , but wouldn't read it again. Hate being forced to wrote a review.

It was all right.

I'm glad she survived the cruise ship. I'm glad her legs have regenerated. I'm sad that she can't be the bad-a$$ Marine she once was since the Plague kills violent urges. Our girl teams up with a gang banger and cures him. This book ends on a cliffhanger with them separated in Mexico.

I'm not sure where this scenario can go. Uncured people kill all the cured? Cured people give the cure to the rest against their will? That cure is something else-- a kiss will deliver it, and it works immediately.

I will read Book 2 to see where this is leading, but I am holding reservations.

Doesn't stand alone
