About this listen

The stars are within mankind’s reach…but what awaits in the void may end humanity.

Mars and the Moon have been colonized, piracy runs rampant in the asteroid belts, and a thriving society grows in the depths of space. Humanity prepares to embark upon its greatest journey - the colonization of Alpha Centauri.

Then, everything changes. A deep space reconnaissance probe discovers a new Earth-like planet 12 light-years from Earth’s sun. The probe also finds something unusual, something...unnerving. A new mission is created, a space fleet is formed, and humanity embarks on unravelling the greatest mystery of all - the origins of life itself.

Can the factions of Earth remain united, or will old rivalries and animosities destroy the fragile peace in the face of this terrifying existential threat? Will exploration prove to be a fatal mistake?

If you love new technologies, fast-paced action, and gut-wrenching turns of fate, you’ll love this military sci-fi series.

Very good book. Some plot holes that could easily have been fixed in the story. Hopefully they will be answered in the following books.

Looking forward to next book

So this is the fourth series I have listened too by James Rosone and before that there was only one Irish character meationed and let's say he wasn't the nicest character. But not only where Irish characters introduced early on but they are part of the story. Now I understand that these series follow mainly Americans but it is so good as a Irish man to finally have a Irish character to root for. Can't wait to see where this series goes.

Great start to a series and Representation
