I love audiobooks and was thrilled to receive this one from the author.
The Omega Strain is a virus that is going to wipe out mankind if Mitch Herron does not stop it. At first he fails in his mission and is captured but that is just the beginning. He escapes and teams up with another prisoner who is a scientist from the CDC. They race against time to kill all the carriers and stop the spread of disease.
This audiobook was very well done with no glitches. The narrator was excellent. I like to hear the characters speak to get a better idea of their personalities. Tom Jordan did this well.
This book kept me on the edge of my seat and I can’t wait to read the other books in this series. Thanks Steve!

Mitch Herron is on a mission to stop the release of a virus that will kill millions. One by one he must kill the carriers of the virus and then kill himself as he is also a carrier.

This is a short sharp action book with plenty of death in only a few pages. In some places it feels a bit rushed and the actions of the main protagonist do seem a bit silly but overall it's still an nice entertaining distraction.

This one I won it on a raffle to review it and omg, it didn't let me down, I want to know what else will happen with Mitch.

Mitch is not you usual antiheroe either, a hitman gone superhero was quite interesting for me or maybe it was just Mitch personality he was pretty cool and pretty I don't know sarcastic maybe, he was a very complex guy.

The addition of the doctor that will be like a side partner to him was something I actually liked, made him more human, and I like that Mitch wasn't just killing for the money but for doing some actual cleansing in this world.

I think I will stay with Mitch a long time or at least until I finish all the books he on, they're super fun and amazing.
