[Audio Review] Condition Book 1 – A Medical Miracle? by Alec Birri
Alec Birri really knows how to write a dystopian thriller that really got me thinking, “this could actually happen in the near future!” (if it’s not already that is!) That coupled with the dulcet English tones of narrator Jonathan Keeble you will really get sucked into this story.
The Story:
You are thrust back to 1966 and Dan Stewart has just woken from a coma to find himself in a hospital and covered in 100% burns, but he can’t remember anything other than he’s a pilot and there was an airline crash. He starts to try and piece things together but as the story progresses you soon come to realise that not all is what it seems for Dan and the others in the hospital,.
The first half of the book was a little confusing at times, but then I felt that added to the whole premise of what was going with Dan, the other patients and the infamous red pill, when you are presented with twists and turns it will really give you food for thought. A magic pill to cure all mental illness, seems like a great idea right? but at what cost?
The Audio:
Jonathan Keeble had the perfect voice for this book, his English accent fitted the book well and his voice was easy to listen to. You were lulled into his use of different tones, accents and it was easily distinguished between genders.
The recording was crisp and clear, with no background or white noise. and the narration flowed seamlessly.
Cant wait for book 2 this series has me seriously hooked!
