The author narration really makes the story extremely engaging. I was listening to this at work, and couldn't wait each day to settle down at the office to start listening. And it does live up to Shadowpublications' motto: 'We don't believe in happy endings'. Only problem, now I have to wait for the third novel in series which is due for release in 2016. I loved the fact that the author wrote an entire book about events that were hinted at in the first book. The author is getting a bit better about making you feel for the characters, which is a definite plus. They're still cookie cutter though, which is why I couldn't give this book 5 stars. The evolution of the creature is interesting; I can't wait to see how it all plays out over the next books. The involvement of the CDC and other government agencies was a nice twist; I hope we get to see how that all places out as well. As before; we need movies based off this series. The Black: Arrival is a paraquel, that is it runs concurrently to The Black filling in more aspects of the story. It is set on the American side of events at the testing facility where the barrel of oil from the exploration rig in The Black has been sent. As one can imagine from events disclosed in The Black, namely that there's some sort of cryptozoological nightmare fuel that kills 70 odd people accidentally brought up from the ocean floor that's then sent on to a oil testing facility in Houston, Texas which is later quarantined, there's plenty of action to be had in Arrival. From the get go it's interesting giving the perspective from the other side of the events which unfolded in the earlier book and as things progress you find yourself flipping through the pages waiting to see how it all goes wrong. A solid addition to the series. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Gehört zur ReiheThe Black (2)
The crew of the deep-sea exploration rig Leaguer discovers oil sweeter, purer, and sure to be more easily refined than anything that's ever existed. To confirm their own analysis of their billion dollar find, a test barrel is flown from the drill site off the coast of Papua/New Guinea to Houston Analytical Laboratories (HAL). As the unsuspecting scientists at HAL await the arrival of the oil, they ready their lab for what they know is an important job. They've seen the test results from Leaguer; this find could make history. While the barrel is on its way to Houston, an "infection" breaks out on the far-away rig. And as life aboard the rig descends into chaos, the scientists at HAL make their own discovery-what Leaguer found is indeed historic; it just isn't oil. Instead, they've brought up a dangerous organism that could threaten all life on earth. Trapped in their labs, the scientists must find a way to fight a creature that defies chemistry, physics, and biology. The Black: Arrival, a parallel story to the Amazon Horror Best-Seller The Black, is a page-turning suspense novel that will fill you with claustrophobic terror. Now that The Black has arrived, will humanity survive? Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

By Paul E. Cooley
I just finished reading book one which dealt with the horror of the "Black" at the oil rig. This book shows the reader what happened to the sample at the company's lab. It's just as crazy plus they have the CDC involved. Pretty good read. ( )
