The Last Virus Kindle Edition

After a designer virus plunges the world into darkness, those who survived have finally regrouped and are now waging their own war against the new world order. - Author Caleb Adams delivers big time with his debut literary thriller.

It is Christmas Day. Squadrons of drones have taken to the skies across the major cities of the world. Attached to some of those miniature planes are banners with the wording PEACE ON EARTH. From the other drones, snow falls like confectionary sugar. It is a bewitching sight to all, like it must have been for those inside the walls of Troy when in rolled a great wooden horse. Children stick out their tongues. Lovers embrace and twirl about. The old close their eyes and unfurl their fingers as the deadly pathogen comes to rest upon their skin.

It is Year 3. Across the globe, the Caliphate is now firmly in control. Music and art are outlawed. Sport is sin. Toys are contraband, and women are bought and sold. What was once called America is now called Ummah. What we knew to be Chicago is now known as Ayla. Most who survived the virus and subsequent invasions are either in labor camps or hiding out like rats in the sewers. There is a resistance, though. Forty feet below the streets of Ayla, in abandoned freight tunnels, Sector 4 is 1700 strong. They bring hell and havoc to the Caliphate. They, however, might have just been found.

An absolute gripping read that brings you into an underground world with the survivors of a terrorist attack that has devastated the world. Loved the chapter with the general who is a HUGE Metallica fan, and also the one with the seventeen-year-old girl who happens to be an assassin.

3.0 out of 5 stars Challenging Book
Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2020
Verified Purchase
The Last Virus by Caleb Adams has a rather dark premise, but nonetheless a timely one. A deadly virus, one that has taken over the world is at the forefront of this book. There are religious themes as well, which some may find offensive and stereotypical. The switching back and forth between characters is a little hard to follow, and the writing has an odd cadence in spots, making you go back and re-read a sentence. Some of the structure is just off. If you can get used to that flow, the story itself is interesting. Moreover, if you are prepared to be scared and enjoy reading about the end of the world, this is the perfect book to delve into. This is a frightening new world, one that the author has created well, and one that is both depressing and challenging.

I don’t understand how people could give this book anything less than 5 stars. It was incredibly dark and tragic, filled with realistic depictions of war and suffering and loss. The characters are built up and remarkably well developed, and I enjoyed how each perspective showed different aspects of the same characters. My only regret is that Caleb only has this one book. I am anxiously awaiting his second release!!

1.0 out of 5 stars Anti Muslim overtones
Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2020

This is a very hard read, my bad for seeing virus and a review mentioning the apocalypse, and not taking a minute to read the classification “terrorism”, which would have stopped me downloading. The caliphate are essentially extremist Muslims, and this bothered me throughout. I personally feel this angle is a cheap trick, and try to avoid these types of storylines where possible as they inevitably frustrate me. The focus on one extremist part of an otherwise peaceful culture simply plays on American propaganda. Why not extremist Christians? All religions and races have extremists that can be explored without leveraging of current bias to give you a helping hand.

To be fair to the author this is largely well written, though generally depressing and character switches are a little hard to follow. The story jumps forward a little in some places, enough to make it more confusing again.

In summary, if you’re looking for dystopian or apocalyptic storylines, give this a miss.

Caleb Adams' Debut novel 'The Last Virus' introduces us to the life of the humans who survived the virus. It was quite strange reading this book because with the world currently suffering in the pandemic, who knows that we may become like the humans in this book in the future. Back to the topic, the book tells the story of how the way of life changed from having freedom into controlled freedom. Quite a sad and dark story, but I highly recommend this book to everyone as the future holds frightening uncertainty ultimately because not much is known about the virus and what the future awaits us.

2.0 out of 5 stars I'm going to be harsh
Reviewed in Canada on July 9, 2023

There's not much good that I'm going to say about this ebook.

To start with, I didn't like the formatting, division of paragraph, chapters, etc... In fact, I thought that I was reading a draft of a story.

Also, I simply couldn't connect with the characters. The author didn't succeed, as far as I'm concerned, in getting me sympathetic to them or their cause.

The only thing that I found interesting was the twist near the end and the ending itself. That ending opens the possibility for a follow up with the possibility of many twists.

5.0 out of 5 stars A story that shocks but is hard to put down
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 18, 2020

Time lines cross over and the stories of various people are converging to a biblical finale of how civilization may survive.
The writing at times is crude but this was a hard to put down book.
Some of the religious fighting is not politically correct and may offend some but taken as a story it is interesting.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ambivalent about this book
Reviewed in Australia on March 30, 2021

I am not sure if I liked this book BUT I did read it all and did find it quite compelling. It read at times as though English was not the first language - not a problem although I found myself reading those sentences to make sure I got the intent. The focus shifted to various characters and you just had to guess where they fitted in. It was only at the very end that these parts of the book came to make sense. It was definitely dystopian and dark and touched on some strange analogies. What did stand out however was the 'realism' of living in an underground world, not knowing if you would be alive for much longer.
