About this audiobook

It uses your DNA against you.

It evolves faster than you can fight back.

Lucy’s battle for survival has begun.

In the middle of the night, as the last cell tower fails, Lucy gets a desperate warning from her lover: "Worse is coming."

It started with the satellites. Then the power. Then phones. As utilities and communications fail, panic and violence spread. Lucy has just hours to get ahead of the mob. But when the first infections appear, it’s already too late.

D4 isn't a virus. It's not a weapon. It's evolution – and it's hunting us. Thrust onto the frontline of a bio-war, Lucy must decide how much of herself she's willing to lose in pursuit of survival.

Part 1 of 5.

From the #1 international bestselling saga. Packed with twists, grit, and sacrifice, the Convulsive series is an award-winning, gripping dystopian thriller, with a whole new take on the post-apocalyptic genre.

WARNING: This series cuts close to the bone. It contains strong language and depicts scenes of a violent nature. You will be immersed in a vivid, dystopian disaster, where Lucy’s life hangs by a thread. This is not a journey for the faint of heart. For Lucy, there’s no going back...

Perfect for fans of Michael Crichton, A. G. Riddle and Hugh Howey, this action-packed epic will keep you turning pages late into the night. Read the full series now, before D4 mutates again.

Part 1. of 5. of a dystopia/aftermath type story. Compliments go to the Narrator, who did really well with a story that was trying too hard to get the "Introduction" out of the way! Sadly, this just led to some very shallow Character development, especially of the two main 'actors'. Things fall too easily into place for Lucy & Dan - there's a whole load of bollocks about acquiring 'Hazmat suits' that I'd ascribe to a writer who goes off his "stream of consciousness" when at work! There is a desperate need for a good - even adequate - Editor; someone with "Thriller" novels experience. Again, sadly, this is noticeably lacking! Unless this was a "self published" effort. I'm very surprised that the Narrator, who has the same surname and is, presumably, related, wasn't aware of these faults after having read through a few times prior to recording the narration - which, unlike the story, is pretty much faultless, as she has a "good voice"; clear, pleasant and easy to listen to. 😔P0D.☘

I really enjoyed the story and it was well read. I'm not sure that I'm willing to spend money on the rest of the series just yet - but I am definitely considering it.
