The Living

A Novel: The Immune, Book 2

By: David Kazzie

Narrated by: Liz Krane

The thrilling sequel to The Immune!

The end of the world was only the beginning.

Thirteen years have passed since the Medusa plague wiped out nearly 99 percent of the world’s population and pushed humanity to the brink of extinction.

Climate change triggered by nuclear skirmishes in the last fevered days of civilization decimated agriculture and livestock, and the hardened survivors battle for what few resources remain.

Will Callahan is one of the lucky ones. In his small community in Nebraska, he and his family have access to food, clean water, weapons, and medical care.

More importantly, he is the only child known to have survived infancy since the plague. But everything changes when someone comes looking for him.

Enjoyed

I was looking forward to this book 2 and have a feeling there will be a book 3. Interesting story, but hard to get used to the lady reading it. Like the first book, it takes about half way thur it before you get accustomed to her voice. Once you get past that a good book. The female character in it is pretty stupid though. No way she's lasted as long as she has. Hopefully if there's another book to follow, the author tries to wise her up. Overall a pretty good book. Wouldn't pay full price for it though, bought it during their big sale in november along with about 15 others. Should keep me busy for the next several months

Big bad wolf

The narrator lowering her voice for male characters took me out of the story every time. Made me think of someone reading a bedtime story and making the big bad wolf voice. Please just read in your normal voice. The listener can imagine a male voice in their mind.

Much better than the first book

Much better than the first book. Story more developed. Could there be a third? At first I didn’t care for the narrator’s voice but she grew on me.

Good story line

Great addition to the Immune but making the 11yr old boy sound like he was 5 was annoying.

I loved it

I'm not sure why the other reviews didn't care for the narrator. I think she was awesome. her males voices were a little weird but she rarely used it. I really liked her voice for Will.
I really enjoyed both books to the fullest. I hope the writer puts a 3rd out from Will's life . I'd like to see what future this ending yields.
