Story
When the end of the world arrived, it came not with a bang, as most expected, but with more of a "pfft" instead. Humanity has been torn asunder and brought to the edge of total annihilation in less than an hour. For those who died, it was a quick death, so fast that their brains didn't have time to process the pain signals from their nerves. For those who survived, the true horror is about to begin as they struggle to not only stay alive, but come to grips with the shocking realization about what - and who - was responsible.

It was just a random mutation - one of a billion that happen in viruses every day. But this one was different. It exploded out of Somalia and spread across the oceans before anybody thought to look up from their cell phones to see what was going on. The infected breathed the virus into the air around them, spreading it through the cities faster than anyone thought possible. Hospitals were overwhelmed. Police lines crumbled. Quarantine sites disintegrated. Cities started to collapse.

Good but
I disliked how the wife was treated by the author. For a husband who we are supposed to believe is always prepared, keeping his key partner in the dark the way Alex did was a recipe for disaster. In that sort of situation allowing your spouse to remain woefully ignorant of potential danger would be horrible.
And her use of the walkie talkie just to "check up on him" would have been stopped by anyone in real fear of their lives. She was one misplaced "I love you be careful" from getting him shot while he was hiding. Overall, even with those things considered it was a good book.

Gun Crazy
I do not like the extensive use of guns as the story. However, when seconds count, the police were hours away in this story. There is no alternative to the use of deadly force to protect self, family, and community against those with no regard for the rights of others. As a result of reading this work, I have become a gun owner and am stockpiling essential supplies for any future disaster. I am a liberal who believes in civil rights; I don’t understand why many liberals oppose the gun culture. It is not a liberal/conservative issue.

Very near reality, a good preparation for today
The Jakarta Pandemic is thought-provoking. Not your run of the mill thriller formula, it keeps you at the edge of your seat. The pacing feels a little off because it isn't a standard formulaic thriller, but the aspects of reality regarding the situation in which we find ourselves today can be fruitful as well as harrowing.

Great read, the Fletcher story begins
I really enjoyed most of book. The characters are well done and the situations and reactions seem very human.
I feel the pacing isn't as good as some of the other books by Konkoly, and there were times where I felt like I was spending minutes on non-value added fluff.
Overall it is a great addition to the post-Apoc genre. I am generally sad to say I am up to date on following Alex Fletcher's story, and look forward to any other offerings from Konkoly in this genre.

Alex Is An Idiot!
Overall a very good story...
But the protagonist Alex Fletcher comes off like a buffoon for the sake of moving the story forward.
As things progressed I constantly found myself yelling at my player "WHAT?! Why are you doing/saying that??!!!!" It's these stupid "mistakes" that further the tale though.
While frustrating it doesn't deter from a good story. More of a TEOTWAWKI story than I was anticipating. Lots of good prepper discussion; I'd just note Alex's mistakes and try not to repeat them!
