Showing 1-5 of 8 (next | show all) I was absolutely blown away by this book. I'd read Erin Bowman's Vengeance Road duology and really enjoyed it. I wasn't sure if I'd love her science fiction writing as much. I definitely loved it! This book has it all - great characters, space travel, strange planet, contagious disease. I devoured this book. It was un-put-down-able. I loved everything about this book - the world, the characters, the mystery. I can't wait to get a hard copy of this book for myself. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own ( ) badwolftimelord | Jan 16, 2020 | Who is going to be the first to die? Althea Sadik... a teenage lab intern to Lisbeth Tarlow Doctor Lisbeth Tarlow, Hevertz Industries' microbiologist whose wisdom and experience kept her in a job in spite of a benign tumour which gave her hand the shakes Dylan Lowe - 23 year old forewoman for the Northwood Point crew Nova Singh, wanna be military pilot hired temporarily by Hevertz Industries to pilot the Odyssey Toby - tech administrator Cleaver - security Sullivan Hooper, Hevertz mechanic and Nova's cousin When the story begins, a severe storm is approaching Soter's ice caps, where a team of Hevertz, (a multi-million dollar drilling company) employees are conducting an environmental assessment of Northwood Point. All of the workers get evacuated onto the Muriela, except the seven mentioned above who are given company orders to fly to Achlys, a planet located in the Fringe, where a crew known as Black Quarry have lost contact with Hevertz. In spite of many misgivings by the crew, they set out for Achlys knowing nothing except that there is no known reason for the lost contact. When they arrive, it is soon evident that there are problems - they find a few dead bodies with their throats cut but no evidence of the majority of the crew. The most disturbing discovery is a note, written in blood on the floor, near one of the dead bodies which reads: It got in us and most are dead. Decklan flew for help. Don't trust the kid. The captain, determined to make a name for herself, insists that they investigate the drilling site, arguing that the remainder of the crew might have sought refuge there. As if Contagion were a movie, I immediately started thinking, 'No, don't go! Get back on your ship and fly away while you still can!' But of course, they don't. As I was reading, there were always enough unanswered questions to make me want to keep reading. I quite enjoyed Contagion but I can't tell you all the things I liked without spoiling it for you so I won't. What I didn't like, and will warn you about now is that it is NOT a stand alone and you are left with an extreme cliff hanger so if you're not up for that... don't read Contagion. At least book two, Immunity, is out already. ( ) JRlibrary | Sep 8, 2019 | Funtastic space horror, fun times, so many die, the bodies piled high. Intense action, mystery, and more dead bodies. Don't love any of them, they may be dead on the next page. You have been warned. Seriously, this was a good read for me. There was never an easy answer to their problems, only run like you're going to die, because you are. LOL I loved reading it, I even read it slow in bits because I needed to step back and reflect (relax) on what I just read. I ordered book 2 before I even finished this one. ( ) TheYodamom | Jul 17, 2019 | Ooh this was really good! I love stories about outbreaks of scary viruses and such, so this was right up my alley. It didn't start off too bad, introducing the characters and getting them on their journey to the SOS call. I liked that we got different voices throughout the story, so there were lots of angles and thoughts about what was happening. The way the infected behaved was really cool and creepy. The ending was !!! And now I'm so excited for part 2. If you liked Illuminae, you will like this story too. Highly recommend ( ) AlyP59 | Apr 25, 2019 | Contagion by Erin Bowman is an audible book I picked up from the library. I fell in love with this intriguing take right away. I like a good mystery mixed with my science fiction, throw in a deadly unknown killing factor, people who may not be what or who they say they are, crooked business or governments, and lots of suspense and that is my mind of book! This is all that and more! The narration complements the book perfectly too! Really made the book that much better! Tremendous job one voices, emotions, timing, well..everything! Can't wait for the next book! ( ) MontzaleeW | Nov 9, 2018 | Showing 1-5 of 8 (next | show all) ▼Published reviews Belongs to Series▼Common Knowledge

Contagion is expert and fascinating. Gwyneth Paltrow coughs. That's your first sign. In a film called Contagion, where you are slowly condition to fear the cough, it's important. She's on the phone, in a place recognisably 'foreign' to her, her wedding ring is prominent and the male voice on the other end of the line uses the word 'secure'.

Is Contagion On Sky Cinema
Contagion appears at first to be Scott Burns' crackling script, loaded with pay-off lines and easily boiled-down communiques on the extent and nature of the outbreak. Ian Sussman's (Elliott Gould) pronouncement that 'blogging is not writing. It's just graffiti with punctuation', is a better put down than many journalists have managed in the last ten years. Cheever's (Laurence Fishburne) assertion that 'someone doesn't have to weaponize the bird flu. The birds are doing that', is Line of the Year, 2011.Actually though, again, much of the expertise here rests with Soderbergh. Look at every actor's line delivery. No-one shouts, a few of them don't even get above a whisper. This is a disaster movie, turned down to minus-one, rather than up to eleven. Soderbergh has produced something of such subtle brilliance, he doesn't need extrovert performances to amplify the tension, the emotion or the action. The delivery here, by everyone, is no accident. It's great directing at work.
Contagion Sky Golf Course
Towards the end, Soderbergh does get lost. In what is, for the most part, a densely packed ensemble, with no real focal point, he gets dragged, with good reason, towards Fishburne's Cheevers. There are hints here that a film focusing just on him may have boiled all of the issues down into a microcosm, but the rest of the film doesn't take that route and when the director allows himself to pursue it the tone shift is jarring, where previously the film had been slyly fluid.
Jude Law's Alan Krumwiede has also been the subject of much debate, possibly rightly so. He feels less like a blogger, more like a cult leader, perhaps a deliberate choice by Soderbergh and Burns, or an overestimation of the rank of bloggers in today's society.

Those aside, this is Steven Soderbergh bringing his style to a film which is, more or less, a Roland Emmerich apocalypse drama, which is as refreshing in practice as that idea sounds in theory.Contagion Sky Gold
