Contagion

The Infinity Engines, Book 6

By: Andrew Hastie

Narrated by: Rupert Degas

In the frozen wilderness of Antarctica, a team of researchers makes a shocking discovery: a century-old ship buried deep in the ice. As they begin to excavate the vessel, they realize that it holds a dark secret—inside, they find the frozen remains of a crew, long dead from a mysterious plague.

Alerted to the event, an agent of the Outlier division is dispatched to investigate. Discovering that the ship was part of Shackleton's expedition to the South Pole and that the plague on board is unlike any they have seen before. With the help of the only survivor from the research team, they must race against time to unravel the mystery of the plague and prevent it from being unleashed on the world once again.

But as they dig deeper into the secrets of its past, they soon realise that there was a darker side to the expedition involving an ancient ritual and a powerful man who would stop at nothing to possess it. Can they uncover the truth and prevent disaster, or will they become the latest victims of the deadly plague?

Filled with danger, adventure, and time-traveling twists and turns, “Contagion” is a thrilling tale of survival in a world where the past and the future are intertwined.

Impressed with the story

I had my doubts on where the story could go after the first 4 books but very impressed with the result. Enjoyed sophistication of the layers and character development. Can’t wait for the next one.

Always something new!

It was absolutely dope, like always. I love how the crisis is always so different from the last, and I always love the new characters and their parts, giving more thrill and suspense to the story.

Another banger!

What a fantastic use of current events to introduce new characters into the story line. I thought we'd meet everyone and was simple a continuation but no. Mr. Haiste has a stellar talent for story weaving!

In this book, you will never see what comes next.

I enjoy fantasy and science fiction most when there are mysteries you cannot foresee, when the solutions are not easy to unravel. This is very much the nature of this book and the entire series. Read all of the books in order.

Wow! A great bounce back after book 5

This book brought back all the joy that the first book introduced. Multiple storylines, adventure, time travel, a weaving of history. A great way to “end” the six part series….and if you listen carefully, Dubya makes a guest appearance.

I hope Andrew Hastie provides us with more to the Infinity Engines series.
