Germline Audiobook

" Set in a science fiction world, Germline is a war story to the bone. Cutting and brutal, no punches are pulled as Oscar Wendell covers the world's latest war. Trying to exorcise some of his demons only leads to the creation of new ones as Oscar charts the course of the war. Gritty and plausible, this book is definitely worth picking up. "

" War war and more war,Great read!! "

" Not terrible but unremittingly grim and doesn't really go anywhere. The book charts the changes wrought in a drug addicted journalist as he proceeds through a moribund campaign in a bizarre near future war. It's billed as military sci fi but that doesn't excuse the dearth of ideas. It could be a lot better "

" Just met the author at Nan Film Festival and he gave me a copy. It was a difficult read (very dark) but incredible. "

" A clear and graphic look into a war were the U.S.A is the losing aggressor. "

" A bit grim and unrelenting. Could war in the future be anything else? Enjoyed the journey of Scout none the less. "

" This was a real find. Basic military sci-fi but where the author captures the stresses of war on the soldiers. Will read the others in the series. "

" Not that big a fan of military SF. In many ways it is a good book, but it needs the right audience. "

" Had no idea what to expect from this, grabbed it from the library after checking it in one day - very impressed. Not the best written thing in the world, but an absolute ton of emotion in there, and some very cool ideas. Very much looking forward to checking out the others, now. "

" It is a gritty, fast read. Not for everyone, but I enjoyed it. I am curious about the next book in the series. "

" Good military scifi book. More of a war novel than anything else that tells the story of a frontline reporter who becomes part of a war that eventually has no meaning other than survival, and a chance at redeeming a lost soul. "

" This is quite an unusual book, and I think the author has quite a storytelling gift, but for me it hasn't quite taken off as a story (maybe there's too much violence for a girrrl). I have to take it back to the library, so unless I finish it tonight I won't. "

" One of the grimmest books I've ever read but I can't remember the last time I was so captivated by a story. "

" Pretty good. Not much to say about this one. Kinda repetitive but I still liked it. Took a little bit to get into though. "

" After over a hundred pages I finally gave up on this one. I just couldn't get into it. The premise while interesting was much more of the same...page after page...and I couldn't develop any find of attachment to the main characters. I just couldn't bring myself to care whether he lived or died. "

" Full review to come: fast-paced, gritty, dark, this book really surprised me, especially at the end. "

" Review forthcoming; an intriguing & intense exploration of a drug-addled reporter in a warzone. "

" Just met the author at Nan Film Festival and he gave me a copy. It was a difficult read (very dark) but incredible. "

" was so good read it in one setting :) cant give higher praise than that. "
