Publisher's summary

Governments across the globe have failed to stop the spread of the Oni Agent. The biological weapon continues to wreak havoc. Those that are infected become abominations known as Skulls, a fate worse than death.

Captain Dominic Holland and Meredith Webb have made it to Fort Detrick. The Army base was once a bastion for America's biodefense. Now, swarms of hungry Skulls prowl outside the walls. With Fort Detrick's resources, Dom and Meredith think they may finally have a chance to slow the spread of the Oni Agent.

But with the United States military in disarray, the situation outside Detrick's walls grows bleaker. More and more civilians succumb to the Skulls - or become them. Dom leads a desperate mission to establish a safe zone for civilians fleeing the nightmarish creatures.

Despite this apocalyptic new world, Dom and the Hunters are determined to succeed. New threats and discoveries challenge them every step of the way. But they soon find potential help from an unlikely source...if they can survive long enough to receive it.

Series continues to deliver

This is the second book in The Tide series. Dom and Hunters are hell bent on rescuing survivors and working towards finding a cure for the Oni agent.

Just like in the first book, I am really enjoying the detail with which the story of each battle is told. I find that I'm fully engaged in every move that the team makes as they fight for every little bit of success.

Can't pinpoint why but I just can't get into this series...

I'm really unable to figure out why this series bores the heck outta me. The zombie/post apocalypse type books are great and I love the ocean and boating/sailing. Listened to the first book and hoped the second one would get better... Unfortunately I bought all 3 of the series at once which means I've gotta listen to the last one as well. The narrator is great but the storyline is so incredibly slow.

Another excellent entry in the series

This is pretty much the epitome of apocalypse genre popular fiction. It's not trying to be anything except what it is, but it's being that thing very, very well.

Fast-paced, scary monsters, humans being humans for both bad and good. Add in solid writing and a skilled narrator and you've got a win.

Even better than the 1st!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Hell yes, this is one badass series that combines several of my favorite genres. The author uses real science to make it even more frightening and his character development gets even better.

What other book might you compare Breakwater to and why?

Anything by Michael Crichton.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

It only took a few sittings to finish this one. Very fast paced and exciting.

Any additional comments?

Looking forward to the next book!

I think it could be even more enjoyable with better narration. the narration was not bad, there's just room for improvement there. Looking forward to reading the next book.

A kittle wooden , but not a bad read

The characters were a little one dimensional more what you you would expect in youth books. Thus was made worse by narrator. overall though it was an inventive story.
