Publisher's summary

Seven years ago, Rachel gave her heart to a dark, intense stranger who left her broken and alone.

Every day since then Rachel has thought about Dex, her memories refusing to be silenced.

Now, Dex is back, but this time he is not alone. He has brought a formidable army - their sole purpose to conquer. Fate will bring Rachel and Dex back together, but on opposing sides of a war that threatens to obliterate her world.

Pitted against the power of the elements, Rachel and her friends must survive tsunamis, earthquakes, tornadoes, and fire, all the while being hunted by a powerful enemy who will stop at nothing to pillage her planet.

Fleeing for her life amid the chaos of a raging, burning city, Rachel realizes man’s only chance of survival lies in the hands of the very person who betrayed her all those years ago.

Earth is destined to fall, but Rachel is determined to save mankind, no matter the sacrifice.

Great!

Another great read by Melissa Delport. It makes you think, what if the human race really isn't confined to Earth? What if, as in this book, other intelligent life in the universe is humanoid in form? This novel is both thought provoking and entertaining. Packed full of action, with a side of romance, to keep the reader's interest.

The audio quality was great, as is usual with this author.

I received this audiobook in exchange for an honest review from the author/narrator/publisher via my own request.

The story

I could not finish the bookthe narrator just put me to sleep now granted this is probably a great book and a great story but I couldn’t listen to it because the narrator put no life into it it’s like she was reading it from a page no motion you need a motion thank you

Another good series from Melissa Delport!

The Traveler, my fifth read/listen from author Melissa Delport (Lissa Del) & the first book in a series was absolutely excellent! I don't restrict my reading to any particular genre. Instead, I'm a sucker for anything with memorable characters & a story that keeps me on the edge of my seat until the end. Narrator Leah Sponburgh’s narration added greatly to the book’s enjoyment. I was given an Audible copy of this book & am voluntarily reviewing it. I have to admit there were times I sped up the book because I couldn't wait to see what happened next. Well-written romantic/suspense, with well-developed characters. I’ll be reading more from this author & look forward to the rest of the series! (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

I want more.

This was an alien story that I never expected. I really enjoyed this story and it was set up very well for a sequel. I really hope there is another book, because I really want to see what happens to the characters.

I loved this!

This storyline is great, and not at all the recycled plot so many books today are. Twists and turns of the story are well planned out and easy to get sucked into. I'm looking forward to the next in the series.

Great Introduction to the Series!

This was my first Melissa Delport's book, and won't be my last. I love the cover! This is the first book in The Traveler Series, an amazing Sci-Fi story. This is a great introduction to this Series. Rachel and Dex are great character. Rachel is strong and beautiful. Dex is a great character, powerful and intriguing. The world building is well done, intriguing, and original. The storyline is fast-paced, action packed, captivating, and breathtaking. The secondary characters are great, and they have an important part in the story.Leah Sponburgh did an outstanding job with the narration. She has a beautiful voice, well paced, and really easy to understand. Her voice is really pleasant to listen to. Now, I can't wait for the next book in the Series.

Loved This Exciting Story!

I really enjoyed listening to this book. There were so many surprising turns that it was hard for me to break away from listening to the story. The author keeps you guessing at what will happen—will they or won’t they… The ending has surprises that will lead you to want the next book. I voluntarily reviewed this after receiving a free copy.

Wow!

Narrator is awesome! Doesn’t make it boring and is at a perfect pace. The story line is amazing from the beginning to the end. Left with a cliffhanger. Definitely worth it. Enjoy!

New YA PNR series

This was is a new to me author and narrator, and the story is a new PNR YA series with no graphic sex, so its suitable for younger readers. Don't let that deter you from this series, its a unique story and its engaging. The story of Rachel and Dax is very engaging and I was hooked within the first few chapters of the book. I'm looking forward to the next books in the series.
