Causes of Separation

Aristillus, Book 2

De: T.J. Corcoran

Narrado por: Sean Runnette

The first US / UN invasion of the renegade lunar colony of Aristillus has failed - but the powers-that-be in Washington and elsewhere can't give up. Their political careers - and an escape from the economic decline of Earth under a command-and-control economy - depend on conquering the lunar expats.

A second - and final - invasion is planned. The lunar settlers prepare to repel the onslaught, but what can a small population of 1 million do against the combined might of billions on Earth - especially now that the PKs have the secret of the antigravity drive, and sleeper cells embedded inside the very heart of Aristillus? Open source software, markets, big guns, combat robots, and uplifted dogs let the rebels punch far above their weight - but is it enough to even the odds?

Great Series!

Started off with great character development and ended with a twist that I never saw coming. Could not put it down!

Turns out Ayn Rand is a genre, this book is great one in it

Funny, good action, good sci fi world building, solid characters and great exploration of challenges in building a libertarian or ancap society

Great Googly Moogly This Is GOOD!!

Okay, so I meant to say GREAT! The second in the Aristillus Series will not disappoint! I promise! O know I sund like a fanboy, and I suppose I am, being both male and a fan, but so what?
This book is a rich tapestry of great science, "what if" science, genetic manipulation, space battles, intrepid pioneers, shady government dealings, corruption and retribution and dogs. Not just your standard dogs either. Oh, and an AI with mysterious motives.
Mr. Corcoran has done a tremendous job of weaving a tale that is frighteningly possible, provided we invent one or two things. (Personally, I'm optimistic. Jules Verne was a visionary with some of the fanciful items he filled his stories with. Look what happened a few years after he wrote of submarines.) Could it happen? Who knows?

All I know is, I'm rooting for the dogs.

I thoroughly enjoyed

The story was great and the performance was also. I highly recommend. I feel this deserves a second listen which I don’t do often.

Amazing

Absolutely awesome. I loved every minute of it! it has everything, space dogs, love interests, power struggles, guns in space!
