Exodus

Salvation-1, Book One

De: Kate L. Mary

Narrado por: Mallory Fuccella

The end is only the beginning....

It’s the final days of Earth, and Tessa has made her peace with dying. Her life has never been a fairy tale, so it makes perfect sense she’d perish with most of the people on the planet. Except luck is finally on her side, as is her knight in shining armor, Ty, who puts his own life on the line to make sure she gets to Salvation-1 before zero hour.

The ship is supposed to be humanity’s chance at starting over, but making it off Earth is only the beginning.

Forty years in hyper sleep, a new planet in a new galaxy, and a whole new set of challenges. When nothing turns out out the way they thought it would, Tess and the other survivors once again find themselves fighting for their lives. Only this time if they lose, there’s no chance of escape.

outstanding story and narration

The story held my attention throughout. narrator was clear, pleasant to listen to ND sound quality was excellent.

More engrossing than I expected

Exodus is a great listen, I was pretty gripped from the start. We get to know Tessa on Earth, facing the challenges of a crumbling society alongside her sick mother and the looming certainty of their shared fate.

Except Tessa's luck changes when she wins the space lottery with the chance to escape the doomed planet and head to a viable planet light years away. With nothing left to lose, Tessa has to traipse across a city of violent and depressed individuals, looters and mad men now unhinged from the rules of law.

As with all of Kate's books, her characters are real and flawed, we get the good and the bad in society, and the space ship is tightly packed with those that made it on time.

The narration is pretty decent, even though her inflection during some of the narration is very monotonous. I have not listened to any of Mallory's other audiobooks, but hopefully she improves with experience. Sometimes it feels that she is just pushing through and not really paying attention to the words - however, in no way did it impact heavily on the story.
I will be getting book 2.

One of the best

A little more romance than I like, but not too much. Great take on the story. I will listen to the next in the series and found another Kate L. Mary book to listen to also. I suspect it will not be my last. Good job.

Definitely sci-fi romance

I wasn't sure what to expect with this book and was in the mood for some sci-fi romance. Little did I know I eould get a perk into humanity at its best and worst.
The world is about to be destroyed by a metor and so ships have been assembled to take as many of the best and brightest to a new colonized world. They want to fill every seat, so a random lotto has been held to fill the last remaining seats and our heroine is chosen but you have to make it to the ship alive. When death is imminent for everyone but a lucky few, that paints a huge target on your back. Also if you do make it, then what? Go to sleep for 40 years and hope ya'll make it in one piece. Fingers crossed xx

Just an amazing journey

Imagine Armageddon failed and you had to leave what do you find well a foreword mission but nothing goes smooth. The story is amazing. The narration is lovely. Listen and like me sign on the the next part of the journey.
