About this listen

A sudden burst of radiation is detected beneath the desert in Iran. Alex Hunter – code name Arcadian – and his highly trained incursion team are dropped into the ruins of Persepolis. All they find is an empty underground facility – nothing to explain the gamma spike. It is as if a black hole has swept everything away....

Israel is threatening nuclear war. And someone, or something, is draining the fluids from the bodies of Iranian soldiers in the desert. If a black hole has taken everything, could something have come back? And then another radiation 'event' occurs. An ancient prophecy is unraveling.

Another great listen from author Greig Beck. Gripping story line which frequently has you on the edge of your seat. The only downside is the long, rambling and (sorry Greig) frankly boring introduction from the author. Perhaps you could shorten your intro and keep it to the essentials? Otherwise I loved this book and look forward to the next in the series.

I enjoyed this but not as much as the first book. It was entertaining but I missed not having as many creatures. Im just going to download book 3!

Really enjoyed it except for the occasional time thinking the writing was a small bit too simple and wanted more detail. Honestly recommended to anyone interested in science fiction and military.

Very entertaining, couldn't put it down.

I love the Alex Hunter series, they are somewhat of a guilty pleasure for me. I don't know that this is usually my genre of books, but somehow I find them really good. There are well written characters, and I really enjoy the cameraderie between the HAWKs. There are also insane adventures and action, and a lot of cool monsters that show up throughout the books. The Arcadian himself keeps evolving and growing in every book as well.
In this book, Alex and his HAWKs are investigating manufactured black holes, and what has come out of those holes from outer space.
