About this listen

When Death goes on strike, some rejoice—while others await the return of his icy grip—in this dark fantasy novel from the author of Mountain Man.

In the dead of winter, on a highway in Quebec, a man crashes his car and survives. In New York, a homeless person is run over by a bus and lives. A teenager jumps off a high-rise building in Tokyo and fails in her attempt to take her own life. All around the world, miracles like these are taking place. Death seems to have taken a holiday, and humanity breathes a sigh of relief.

But over the course of the next week, some people will begin to suspect the terrible truth behind these marvels. A handful will even search it out. One man will find it. In seven days, all hell will break loose—and nothing, living or dead, can escape its fury.

The narration isn’t that bad really. Yes it’s a bit robotic and initially irritating until you get used to it. But the character voices are very good and make up for it. I’m a huge RC Bray fan but he wouldn’t have been any good for this story. Overall a good original story.

Not as bad as some reviews

So like others have mentioned I didn't think I'd enjoy the narration. The preview doesn't really do it any justice and then the top review being a negative one doesn't help. I've had this book in my wishlist for over a year and always skipped it. Took a chance this time, and I'm just sorry I didn't do it sooner. Brilliant story by Keith C Blackmore, and the narration once you warm up to PJ Ochlan was very good.

Very good

Brilliant plot, excellent characterization. Would have been happy for the book to have been twice as long.
The narrator was excellent and totally suited the theme of the story.

exceeds all expectations

Liked the story and style of writing. Read quite a few Blackmore books. The narrator here sounds out of place, as if reading a science text. Terribly offputting. Took months to read, normally zip through them!

Story Great! Worst voice for it!
