The Infected Trilogy

Auteur(s): Scott Sigler
  • Résumé

  • The Infected Trilogy is a three-book audio fiction series from #1 New York Times bestselling novelist Scott Sigler. "Part Stephen King, part Chuck Palahniuk, INFECTED blends science fiction and horror into a pulpy masterpiece of action, terror, and suspense.” James Rollins, New York Times bestselling author of The Judas Strain and Black Order “INFECTED is a marvel of gonzo, in-your-face, up-to-the-minute terror.” Lincoln Child, New York Times bestselling author of Deep Storm and Death Match "INFECTED is a bucking pulp pony that throws you this way and that, and just when you think you've got your balance, that ole pony bucks the other way. It’s one hell of an exhilarating ride." Joe R. Lansdale, World Horror Convention Grand Master and six-time Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Bubba Ho-Tep and Hap & Leonard SEASON 1: INFECTED Across America, a mysterious disease turns ordinary people into raving murderers who inflict brutal horrors on strangers, themselves, and even their own families. Working under the government’s shroud of secrecy, CIA operative Dew Phillips crisscrosses the country trying in vain to capture a live victim. With only decomposing corpses for clues, CDC epidemiologist Margaret Montoya races to analyze the science behind this deadly pathogen. She learns that these killers all have one thing in common – they’ve been contaminated by a bioengineered parasite, shaped by a complexity far beyond the limits of known science. Meanwhile Perry Dawsey – a hulking former football star now resigned to life as a cubicle-bound desk jockey – awakens one morning to find several mysterious welts growing on his body. Soon Perry finds himself acting and thinking strangely, hearing voices . . . he is infected. The fate of the human race hinges on the bloody war Perry must wage with his own body, because the parasites want something from him, something that goes beyond mere murder. SEASON 2: CONTAGIOUS The brutal epidemic sweeping America is driven not by evolution, but rather by some unknown, malevolent intelligence. Standing against this unimaginable threat is a small group assembled under the strictest secrecy. Hulking former football star Perry Dawsey possesses an unexplainable ability to locate the disease’s hosts. Violent and unpredictable, Dawsey is both the nation’s best hope and a terrifying liability. Hardened CIA veteran Dew Phillips must somehow forge a connection with Perry if they’re going to stand a chance against this maddeningly adaptable opponent. Working with them is Margaret Montoya, a brilliant epidemiologist who fights for a cure even as she reels under the weight of endless horrors. This trio has kept humanity in the game, but when the disease becomes contagious, it triggers a fast countdown to Armageddon. SEASON 3: PANDEMIC To some, Doctor Margaret Montoya is a hero — a brilliant scientist who saved the human race from an alien intelligence determined to exterminate all of humanity. To others, she’s a monster—a mass murderer single-handedly responsible for the worst atrocity ever to take place on American soil. All Margaret knows is that she’s broken. The blood of a million deaths stain her hands. Endless guilt and crippling nightmares chew at her, take pieces of her soul, drown her in self-hatred so crippling she can't salvage her marriage, let alone be even a shadow of the warrior she once was. But Margaret is about to be called into action again. Because before the murderous intelligence was destroyed, it launched one last payload — a soda can–sized container filled with deadly microorganisms that makes humans feed upon their own kind.

    Season 1: INFECTED — Across America, a mysterious disease is turning ordinary people into raving, paranoid murderers who inflict brutal horrors on strangers, themselves, and even their own families. Working under the government’s shroud of secrecy, CIA operative Dew Phillips crisscrosses the country trying in vain to capture a live victim. With only decomposing corpses for clues, CDC epidemiologist Margaret Montoya races to analyze the science behind this deadly pathogen. She discovers that these killers all have one thing in common – they’ve been contaminated by a bioengineered parasite shaped by a complexity far beyond the limits of known science. Meanwhile, Perry Dawsey – a hulking former football star now resigned to life as a cubicle-bound desk jockey – awakens one morning to find several mysterious welts growing on his body. Soon Perry finds himself acting and thinking strangely, hearing voices telling him to do bad things. The fate of the human race may well depend on the bloody war Perry must wage with his own body because the parasites want something from him that goes beyond mere murder. Perry Dawsey is infected. He is infected with a disease that thinks, a disease that talks, and if he’s lucky, he’ll die before it becomes a disease … that walks.

Into to the Siglerverse

This was my introduction into the Siglerverse. I listened to this novels when it first came out and am listening again. This is a story about Perry and how he deals with the issues that arise in his life. This series starts out pretty contained but opens up just like Siglers characters. Fast paced with lots of gore throughout. Definitely worth the price of admission for those who like fact checked science fiction and blood. Did I say there was blood?

A trilogy worth keeping and an amazing introduction to Scott Sigler

What amazes me most is his method of self promotion, the man is always betting on his writing skill and ability to make an amazing story that you'll want to pay for when he hands his novels out episode by episode in this podcast format. It works, I should know, I literally have all of his books here on audible.

Infected opens HARD and grabs you by the throat, really let's you know you're in for something dark and mysterious, as the story unfolds the sci-fi elements become present without overtaking the darker aspects, Sigler really knows how to use the scientific genre to ENHANCE what's there without devolving into fantasy and unmasking the "horror"

Contagious is so much fun, the "buddy cop" theme is heavy in this one and it makes sense since by this point the threat is already known, but so too grows the enemy and biological nastiness that develops among the INFECTED populace, some of Siglers best character development (In my opinion 😉)

Pandemic is total war, badass black-ops/military work and we get to really see how a relationship built on trauma can be pushed so far (😔)
