Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

As an audiobook listener, I was immediately drawn into 'The First Patient'. The story is a perfect blend of medical mystery and political suspense, with a dash of naval intrigue that sets it apart from other thrillers. Gigante's narration is exceptional, with a knack for making even the most technical medical jargon engaging. The pacing is spot on, never lingering too long on details or rushing through crucial plot points. My only critique is that some secondary characters could have been more fleshed out, but this is a minor issue in an otherwise riveting listen.
