Amahle is a Light Chaser—one of a number of explorers, who travel the universe alone (except for their onboard AI), trading trinkets for life stories. But when she listens to the stories sent down through the ages, she hears the same voice talking directly to her from different times and on different worlds. She comes to understand that something terrible is happening, and only she is in a position to do anything about it. And it will cost everything to put it right.

Story4 out of 5 stars 32
Merritt Alder is done with Earth. The planet is polluted and overpopulated, and its people are hungry. Earth's first colony, Galena, is a pioneer world 10,000 light years away. It has clean air, unpolluted water, and continents of arable land. Anyone can start a new life…if they can get there. For Merritt, the journey is only the beginning. Obstacles arise every step of the way, forcing compromise and sacrifice. And not everyone on his ship is pure of heart. The bonds he forges on the journey will be the key to surviving on another world—a world anyone has yet to fully explore.

Erik Tarverro is a skilled blacksmith, a better swordsman—and hated for his mixed aeradi parentage. Denied mastery of his craft in the human city he grew up in, he accepts a risky contract from a dangerous stranger. With new enemies at his heels, he leaps at the chance to join his father's people in the sky city of Newport. Despite his human blood, he finds his place among the aeradi: heir to an ancient noble family. But Erik's enemies will have blood, and the peace between his people and the Draconan dragon riders is like a powder keg. All it would take is one spark.

Twenty-seven years is a long time unless you are trying to save the world. Nick was enjoying a late fall day, happily skipping his English class, when he was interrupted by a little silver ball. A ball that not only spoke, but claimed to be an alien artificial intelligence sent to warn humanity that a xenophobic alien race was on its way to wipe out every man, woman, and child on the Earth. The catch: They would arrive in 27 years.

The mark appeared while I slept and can’t be ignored. I must present myself to the consulate, and from there, I don’t know what happens. While I’ve been taught the mark is an honor, I have no idea what it means. Questioning isn’t encouraged. I must obey. My change in status exposes me to a violent side of society that I never suspected. Brings me to a strange and wondrous place known as the "surface", where I am immersed in a different way of living. I discover pleasure. I am involved in intrigue and learn about lies and different perspectives of the truth.

Cole Riker is a Slip Runner. A contractor tasked with finding alien salvage in exchange for credits. For an ex-smuggler like Cole, there’s a catch: Don’t break the terms of parole. That means doing things by the book. Find salvage, turn it in, get paid. But everything changes when a retrieval mission lands him in a previously unknown sector. There, he finds the material he’s been sent to recover, along with something more. A brand-new form of ancient alien life.

It's not as great as you'd think, living in a tourist town that's known as "the most magical place in America". Same boring high school, just twice as many monsters under the bridges and rival Families killing each other for power. I try to keep out of it. I've got my mom's bloodiron sword and my slightly illegal home in the basement of the municipal library. And a couple of Talents I try to keep quiet, including very light fingers and a way with a lock pick.

On a cold spring night in 1952, a huge meteorite fell to earth and obliterated much of the East Coast of the US, including Washington, DC. The ensuing climate cataclysm will soon render the Earth inhospitable for humanity, as the last such meteorite did for the dinosaurs. This looming threat calls for a radically accelerated effort to colonize space and requires a much-larger share of humanity to take part in the process. Elma York’s drive to become the first lady astronaut is so strong that even the most dearly held conventions of society may not stand a chance against her.

They're your basic high-spirited young adults, enjoying such pastimes as hacking matter compilers to produce dancing skeletons that prance through the low-gee communal areas, using their rocket-bikes to salvage methane ice shrapnel that flies away when the colony brings in a big (and vital) rock of the stuff, and figuring out how to avoid the ubiquitous surveillance motes.

Merritt Alder is done with Earth. The planet is polluted and overpopulated, and its people are hungry. Earth's first colony, Galena, is a pioneer world 10,000 light years away. It has clean air, unpolluted water, and continents of arable land. Anyone can start a new life…if they can get there. For Merritt, the journey is only the beginning. Obstacles arise every step of the way, forcing compromise and sacrifice. And not everyone on his ship is pure of heart. The bonds he forges on the journey will be the key to surviving on another world—a world anyone has yet to fully explore.

Captivating story
This was a very captivating and enjoyable book. The mission seen through Jeff's point of the story was very interesting. As the story unfolded different aspects and layers were revealed. I can't wait to read book 2 in the series!

Poor Audio, Depressing story.
Story felt fairly negative, somewhat depressing... Sound tech did not normalize narration. Volume constantly at a low whisper transitioning to a loud yell. Really bad and difficult to listen to in a car or any other setting with any background noise. Couldn't even hear some of the whisper. Listen to it in isolated quiet room...

Not Outstanding. Easy listen
I’m not going to follow up on the following volumes. Samuel Best is a good writer but this book did not break any patterns.

Great space adventure
Suspense and action... great. There are unknowns, eventually revealed, that add to the suspense and awe of space discoveries and the risk thereof.

Wow - a new propulsion method
A great space story. A crew of four head to Titan, one of moons of Saturn. They are using a new propulsion system that gets them to Titan in less than half the time as the normal method.
Half way there is a malfunction that gets the ship to their destination even faster. They discover another ship had already beat them and an artifact believed to be from another place in space.
The rest of the story is about the crew’s encounters with the other vehicles and each of the crew member’s way of dealing with the situations they encounter.
Great book for people interested in space travel.

Decent
Way too many technical terms and explanations to the point it got boring. The story is awesome but could definitely do without so many terms the normal person wouldn't understand. Felt like a science class.

Would make a pretty good "B" movie
I enjoyed the book, but I didn't expect a lot of deep science or deep fiction. It would make a pretty good "B" movie and, with good special effects and some big stars, it could be a middling summer blockbuster. It was fun enough, and it didn't end in a big cliffhanger forcing you into reading the next installment. So I'm happy I read it, but I'll not be checking out Book 2.

What lies out there?
Samuel Best wrote a story that leaves us wondering what's out there and is benevolent or not. I'm looking forward to the next part of the story.

get some help on the science please
The bones of the story are good, but too many details about what a trip to Titan would be like do not ring true. Like a bad scifi movie, the astronauts are portrayed as emotional, undisciplined non-team players. needs a good science editor to fix it.
