Summary
The end…is only the beginning.
After a mysterious global event known only as “The Change”, six strangers wake up in an underground research facility where they learn that they’re part of the Extinction Trials - a scientific experiment to restart the human race.
But the Extinction Trials harbors a very big secret.
And so does the world outside.
From A.G. Riddle, the Amazon Charts and Wall Street Journal best-selling author with over four million copies sold worldwide in 20 languages, comes an epic stand-alone adventure with a surprise ending unlike anything you’ve ever heard before.

Unexpectedly enjoyed this!
I'd never read or heard any of A. G. Riddles books before and took a punt on this one. I have to say, I really did enjoy it. I'm sure some folks can find fault with the plot and plausibility of it, but I liked the premise of it. The characters are interesting and believable and having listened to this I'm now a fan of the author's work. I like John Skelley as the narrator too. This was a big plus point to the overall enjoyment factor.

A wonderful listen!
I love A.G. Riddle novels, and this definitely didn't disappoint! It follows the same lines as his previous novels, and I love the character interaction and the interesting link/twist at the end of The Extinction Trials. The whole concept of this book is definitely one that makes you think, especially with the Covid-19 Pandemic still going on now in 2021 and the clear imbalance of power and resources throughout the world (the 1% vs the 99%, companies/rich owning governments, ideas such as The Great Reset and eugenics all sprung to mind while reading this novel). At times it became a little difficult to follow with Owen seeing patterns that others didn't, but they are generally explained afterwards. A very well thought-out and thought-provoking tale! John Skelley's narration was spot-on, and I love that he changes his voice for the different characters; it really helped to follow along in the story. With thoughts of our own world's future in mind, I'm really looking forward to the next A.G. Riddle novel!

Boring power fantasy.
The main hero is the smartest, kindest and has more musculus than anyone else... The main heroine has no concerns but being a good sidekick that makes hims look good and her primary concern is obsessing over him... Lots of plot holes, lots of circular logic.
It's the main hero who formulated Moore's law of course... That should tell you all you need to know about the book really.

Complex and epic
Not something I would usually read but I'm glad I did. It was an epic read to say the least, being complex and a little difficult to follow at times though came together amazingly at the end. Very interesting, certainly makes you think.

Great sci fi
Another great sci-fi adventure from AG Riddle, to the standard you would expect. Innovative with twists along the way. Well read by the narrator.
