By: Michael Banas

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Phillip Drummer is a chief surgical resident at the Philadelphia General Hospital. After five years of intense training he stands atop the surgical pyramid, poised to graduate in six months. His final clinical rotation places him under the direction of Dr. Frederick Riles II, the esteemed chairman of the Department of Surgery. Dr. Riles is in the midst of completing his life’s work, a landmark study investigating Lysovage - an experimental drug designed to combat painful abdominal adhesions. Through a series of random events, Phil is drawn into the project and introduced to the marketing machine of Union Park Biotech, the pharmaceutical giant sponsoring the venture. He is soon exposed to the power and wealth of Union Park, whose influence penetrates deep into the core of the medical center. A series of complications involving the wonder drug suddenly threatens to derail the project, along with Phil’s developing relationship with a pharmaceutical spokesperson. Powerful egos, corporate influence, hospital politics, romance, and financial gain all collide in a climactic product launch, jeopardizing the careers of everyone involved. As the situation unfolds, the future of Dr. Phillip Drummer becomes uncertain, as does his chance of ever graduating from the Philadelphia General Hospital. The Chief Resident is book three of a trilogy capturing the surgical training of Doctor Phillip Drummer and his colleagues. It is the sequel to Pennsylvania’s Finest and The Center of Excellence.

Virtual voice

The virtual voice was bad. I know it’s cheaper but it definitely needs work. Many mispronounced words.

Phils preservence

That auto voice has no passion ni dire !! Monotone . Does not change for female characters .

Poor virtual voice

Virtual voice was terrible - really distracted me from the story
Story was weak and somewhat predictable
Would not recommend

Epic Fail

The story was good but the AI narration was horrible. Words pronounced incorrectly and constantly putting emphasis on the wrong word in a sentence. It was so bad that at times I had to laugh. It ruined a good book for me. So wrong!

Great Story Line

The best thing about this whole book was the constantly evolving storyline. You never knew what was coming next actually, the protagonist were all really good and well defined. The narrator did a great job of keeping your interest.
