Summary

People are growing ill; eyes changing color, burning up with a fever so fierce that it causes them to go crazy, attacking those around them, spreading the infection like wildfire.  

People are trying to escape the unknown sickness, but there is nowhere to run...nowhere to hide.... 

The only chance for the survival of the human race is to stay and fight. However, they're unaware of what they're fighting. What they're up against is much greater than anything they could ever imagine. This is just the beginning....

Could this be the end of humanity?

An most enjoyable book

I listen to this whilst gardening and pretty much got through the whole book in one go

A great beginning to a virus ridden world
It tells the story of various survivors each doing their best to stay alive and infection free

At the end there is an additional twist

The narrator took a while to get used to though

Looking forward to the next instalment

Couldn't finish it

It's a shame as the story seems a good one. In the end, the combination of the narrator and an infuriating writing habit meant I couldn't continue listening. The writer repeatedly writes the same sentence in the first then third person often 3 - 4x in the same paragraph. At first I thought the recording was jumping around. She felt scared......"I am feeling scared" she thought.....she hugged herself because she felt scared.....arrrrrrgh. The narrator doesn't help - he sounds like he's doing an infomercial for 5 year olds.

Great book

I loved it. Great written story which was captivating all the way through. The narrator was excellent with bringing all the characters to live. I just couldn't stop myself from listening. Can't wait to start listening to second book in a serie.

Unbiased review of Fatal Reaction:The Beginning

This story was brilliant. I found it gripping, but I found Christopher DoQui a little difficult to keep my attention. I did love the story itself. The characters did sometimes have me screaming at them whilst I was driving. Very blonde moments going on 🤣. I thoroughly recommend the book and audiobook, but people should be aware that, if listening in the car, other drivers may stare at you as though you are mad.

Fatal Reaction

This book grips you with the first paragraph and keeps you in its clutches all the way until the end. I loved hearing how the world as we know it is ending from the very beginning and how things progress so quickly within just a few days. I can’t wait to dive into the next book in this series!

Good start to series

When Flu decimates the world's population, this story tells some of the survivors' stories. The plot moves along at a good pace with interesting characters. The narrator did a decent job with the book and I am looking forward to finding out what happens next in the sequel book.
