About this listen
A Fascinating New Twist in the Post Apocalyptic Genre
"One of the best social commentaries of our time, wrapped in a whopping good tale."
"Can't believe it's a first effort! Very suspenseful! The thought that something so 'every day' and beloved could cause such chaos is chilling. I was actually frightened by the possibilities raised here and can see how something trivial can be twisted or corrupted to wreak havoc! Good job! Fiction or prediction of a possible future scenario? Scared me to think about it." – Laura L.
"I read a lot of books, mostly sci-fi or adventure. This is the best book I have read in a long time. The story is creative, original, and the more I hear about people in this world, the more I can see that it is possible and maybe probable and making me think strongly about stockpiling. The book was well written and leaving you wanting more. I will certainly read the next volume in this (hopefully) series. I give it 5 stars." – Illiad5
The twisted world of mainstream news and social media becomes the catalyst for social upheaval, entangling Steven Bryant in a frantic fight for the lives of his family and friends. A news story goes viral, causing their once normal lives to take a dangerous turn when a flawed medical research study suggesting man’s best friend might be his worst enemy.
Chaos erupts and a near total collapse of society looms in a perfect storm of government corruption, political correctness, and social justice movements. Steven unwittingly finds himself the leader of a struggle for survival as America's civil structure and social fabric is exposed as a house of cards. Sworn enemies become allies when faced with a common cause and friends and family members become bitter enemies as they confront hunger and widespread violence in a threat to their very survival.
Life will never be the same.

From the Audie-nominated narrator of The Martian. In eleven years' time, a million members of an alien race will arrive at Earth. Years before they enter orbit, their approach will be announced by the flare of a thousand flames in the sky, their ships' huge engines burning hard to slow them from the vast speeds needed to cross interstellar space. These foreboding lights will shine in our night sky like new stars, getting ever brighter until they outshine even the sun, casting ominous shadows and banishing the night until they suddenly blink out.

Story
Already cited on the floor of Congress and discussed in the corridors of the Pentagon as a book all Americans should read, One Second After is the story of a war scenario that could become all too terrifyingly real. Based upon a real weapon - the Electro Magnetic Pulse (EMP) - which may already be in the hands of our enemies, it is a truly realistic look at the awesome power of a weapon that can destroy the entire United States.

Just a generation ago this place was called America. Now, after the worldwide implementation of UN-lead program called Agenda 21, it's simply known as the 'Republic'. There is no president. No congress. No Supreme Court. No freedom. There are only the Authorities. Citizens have two primary goals in the new Republic: to create clean energy and to create new human life. Those who cannot do either are of no use to society. This bleak and barren existence is all that 18-year-old Emmeline has ever known.

Political Thriller
I did enjoy listening to the book but found it to be more of a military/politics apocalypse thriller than a medical thriller. The narrator did great job. It definitely was written recently with the characters mentioned. It is scary what our government could cause.

Well done and thank you Mr. Walker.
Interesting and unique story line. I was anticipating something quite different, but the story and Kevin Pierce soon had me interested and paying close attention. The story begins with a government medical report conveying the result of their research that dog dander was the cause for 90% of the cancer cases in the U.S.. With this information the government issued orders that all dogs should be confiscated and put to death. This is the basis for the title of the novel and the trigger that caused civil unrest throughout the country and the beginning of a potential civil war. The tale proceeds as a commentary on social media, government overreach and corruption, and the struggle to preserve our rights, freedom and the Constitution. This debut novel by a new author was well thought out and executed. Well done and thank you Mr. Walker. Kevin Pierce’s performance was flawless as usual. The tale certainly comes from a libertarian mind, but that’s alright by me. It highlights and warns of possibilities and potential problems straight from today’s headlines, television and radio broadcasts. Caveat emptor!

Wasn't expecting the homosexuality theme to pop up
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
Not really
What was most disappointing about Burt Walker’s story?
I was put off by his psychoanalysis of one of the chatacter's homosexuality, wasn't sure where it was headed, didn't stick around to find out.
Any additional comments?
Not my kind of book. Didn't finish it.

A enjoyable book filled with suspense
What did you love best about Canine Plague?
There are a lot of books in the survivalist vein. Most center around a few story lines ; EMP/Virus/Terrorism/Economic collapse. This was different it centered around unfounded fear and the herd mentality
Who was your favorite character and why?
Steven was my favorite. The reluctant hero that did the right thing even though it put himself and others at risk
What about Kevin Pierce’s performance did you like?
The narrator was and is one of my favorites. His voice fits the age and characters with good diction and emotion when needed. He adds a lot
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Not really it is pretty long. I used the sleep timer and I listened to it for an hour before sleep. A great way to look forward to the next nights sleep!
Any additional comments?
If you like strong characters, a bit of social commentary and an overall the good guys win book this is a good one. I enjoyed it and will look forward to others by the author

Awesome!
I had no idea what to expect with Canine and a post apocalyptic world...but it was a great twist! I loved it, the characters and the communities! I am hoping to find additional books by Mr. Walker! His writing style and knowledge was perfect! And Mr. Kevin Pierce, as always was fantastic and really brings the characters to life! Definite 5 stars!

Politically fueled bad science
Any additional comments?
Enjoyable, interesting, intriguing and entertaining.
Unusual and original premise for the plot line.
Political views enough to irritate just about everyone. And little snippets to offend everyone else. It depends on where you stand politically to how offended you may feel. The timeline for the story takes place in 2016 and there are several prominent names used and many that just by description you have a pretty good idea who the story is referring to.
The story is based on the premise people will believe just about anything if it's packaged right. Considering how dependent people have become on social media this is not far from the truth. The sheep/herd mentality aspect of the story is completely believable. Throughout the story he does bring up many good points about the world we live in and makes you think about what you would do in a similar situation.
A senator with Alzheimer's - that's a really scary thought.
Pushing a particular political agenda- that's done all the time.
Kevin Pierce did another great job with the narration. Great job on all the different characters. He has the perfect voice for this type of story. Kevin pierce is fast becoming on of my favorite narrators. There is just something about his voice, you can listen to him for hours on end. Even if your not into a book he keeps you listening.
Thoroughly enjoyed this book and I am looking forward to reading more from Mr. Walker in the future.

A different survivalist story
Talk about different... A survivalist situation caused by the possibility that dogs may be causing cancer. Wow! I didn't see that plot coming. I was a little skeptical at first, but when you think about it, it's not that unrealistic. This really could happen. Any dog lover will easily get sucked into the story. The politics got a little heavier than I like, but the story line moves quickly enough that I could ignore the politics.
Kudos, as usual, to Kevin Pierce, for doing an excellent job on the narration. I would gladly listen to him read almost any book. .
