The Last Plague

by Dawn C. Crouch

Narrated by: Daena Schweiger

Production: Dawn C. Crouch

Deadly Virus!

This book, written by Dawn C. Crouch, is an action-packed medical thriller with a created virus, clones, a couple of power-hungry fiends, and intrigue!  A possible vaccine to prevent chronic illness and prolong one’s life longevity is really a man-made virus that wipes out 80% of the world population.  A clone whose DNA signature is changing is at the core of trying to right the wrongs and find a cure.  The Last Plague has a well-developed plot with significant twists and interesting side characters.

Crouch is methodical and clear in her writing.  She does not make any huge plot leaps that could leave the listener confused.  The story flows smoothly as does the dialog and character development.  Each step of the book is detailed and realistic.

The narrator, Daena Schweiger, gives a solid performance with rich voices and the right amount of tone inflections.  Her voices project the right amount of personality so that one can feel the weariness, the pain of childbirth, and lost love to name a few.  Schweiger gives a straightforward performance with just enough of a storyteller style.

This is a good book, one that captures the feelings and experiences of today as well as leaving one hopeful with the ending.  No spoilers here!  I would encourage anyone who enjoys forensic or genetic thrillers to give this book a listen.  You will not regret it.

The production quality is clear and succinct.  There were no issues.
