One surefire way to hook your listening audience is to begin with a scene rife with terror, delivered by a narrator who can stretch out each horrific moment in an almost-slow-motion quality. Johnathan McClain does just that, plunging listeners into a supernatural survival story, starting with a blow-by-blow account of a plane crash. The narration moves between members of a teen robotics team--Javi, Molly, Anna, and Yoshi--who, along with four others, are now stranded in an alien environment. McClain alters the tension, tempo, and emotions of each survivor to create a wholly believable group. This nonstop action fest will have listeners on the edges of their seats and craving the next installment. M.F.T. © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine [Published: MAY 2017]
