Summary

Darkness descends over the survivors of the Extinction Cycle....

With nowhere left to run, the Allied States fortifies their few remaining outposts and relocates Central Command to prepare for their final stand. President Jan Ringgold and her generals know beating the enemy on the battlefield is impossible. The only path to victory seems to be taking down the leader of the New Gods, a sinister Chimera known as the Prophet, before he can complete his campaign to enslave humanity. 

While Captain Reed Beckham trains new troops, his wife Doctor Kate Lovato returns to the tunnels to infiltrate the bioengineered enemy communication network. Injured and exhausted, Master Sergeant Fitzpatrick and Team Ghost make their way back from Canada with a Chimera prisoner that might be the key to finding the Prophet and raising a new army. 

In this thrilling conclusion to the Extinction Cycle series, humanity bands together one last time against the Variants. But time has run out for the heroes of the first war to save what remains of the Allied States and, perhaps, the world.

A superb series

I would definitely recommend this series, it was so engaging and I could visualize it so well. I built an affinity with the characters and at times I burst out laughing at the statements from Big Horn. I was hooked and devoured the last three books in a week and a half.
Well done to the trio who wrote and narrated the books….RC you are fantastic!

Exceptional!!

I don't know what to say to do this book (and indeed the series) justice. I didn't want it to end but knew it had to. I've found it hard in the last few years to find a series that could capture my attention fully....until I started reading these.

This book has everything I've come to expect from both these authors. Action, edge of your seat suspense, strong characters and a story that will grab you and not let go. Once I started reading i couldn't stop. It was exceptional.

I'll update the review when I've thought a bit on how to fully express my thoughts!!! Take my word for it though, go read this series if you haven't already.

R.C Bray is an amazing narrator. He doesn't just read a book, he performs it and makes it come alive. Every character has their own tone and he knows how to read with emotion behind them.
