The X-Files: Ground Zero

By Joseph Wood Krutch

Dr. Gregory, a renowned nuclear weapons researcher, is not only dead -- he's been charred to a radioactive cinder. Since this is a death on Federal property, Mulder and Scully are hastily called in. As FBI agents who specialize in unexplained phenomena, they are the investigators of The X-Files, strange and inexplicable cases which are also mysteries that the FBI doesn't want solved. When a second victim, completely unrelated to nuclear science or Dr. Gregory is obliterated in the New Mexico desert, and then a third dies the same way in Washington, DC, Mulder and Scully begin to focus on the frightening dimension of their task. The bizarre deaths cannot be a coincidence. And as they work to uncover the secret unifying element that unites these deaths, it becomes clear that this twisted puzzle has fatal consequences for the entire world.

The best of the audio books!

I really enjoyed listening to this story. Gillian did a great job narrating the story, and K. Anderson did a great job writing the story. It sure brought back memories of "Teller National Lab's" (aka LLNL). Any X-Files fan should buy this one!

Could this be the X-Files movie...?

I suppose being the die-hard X-Phile that I am sort of makes me a bit biased. Yeah, well it certainly doesn't hurt. If you've seen the show enough you can almost hear the voices of our paranormal protagonists speaking their written lines here. I found it to be one of the more far out plots that the X-Files has supplied us with, but since the X-Files movie is due in '98 all we can hope is that THIS will be it. This seems to...
