Zero Point

The Owner, Book 2

By: Neal Asher

Narrated by: John Mawson, Steve West

Earth’s Zero Asset citizens no longer face extermination from orbit. Thanks to Alan Saul, the Committee’s network of control is a smoking ruin and its robotic enforcers lie dormant. But power abhors a vacuum and, scrambling from the wreckage, comes the ruthless Serene Galahad. She must act while the last vestiges of Committee infrastructure remain intact and she has the means to ensure command is hers.

On Mars, Var Delex fights for the survival of Antares Base, while the Argus Space Station hurls towards the red planet. And she knows whomever, or whatever, trashed Earth is still aboard. Var must save the base, while also dealing with the first signs of rebellion. And aboard Argus Station, Alan Saul’s mind has expanded into the local computer network. In the process, he uncovers the ghastly experiments of the Humanoid Unit Development, the possibility of eternal life, and a madman who may hold the keys to interstellar flight. But Earth’s agents are closer than Saul thinks, and the killing will soon begin.

Intense and complex

Great reader with terrific ability to switch voices. Everything is thrilling and stimulating. Sometimes though I had to reply sections due to confusion.

Much improved

Much more enjoyable than the first book in the series. The writing is more smoothed in this one and rapidly catching up to the quality of the story.

Great science fiction saga

Neal Asher is easily becoming one of my favorite authors. Zero point is an amazing continuation to book one of The Owners Trilogy, just when I thought he couldn't do any better, Asher outdoes himself again. Well written and full of action from beginning to end. Well narrated by West and Mawson. Worth it.

Truely outstanding Sci-Fi

This entire series of books is incredible. Wow -what an adventure. A dynasty of progressive outcomes are related and exposed as the eugenics programs that the are.

Edge of Your Seat Story

This his was such a riveting story. The narrator does a fantastic job with the different voices and the way the story switches between different characters, it really left me guessing what would happen next.
