Murmurations

They wanted him to start a war. Instead, he became a God.

Daniel Lyon lives his life in virtual reality. His days are filled with games and friends and a family that loves and cares for him. Until one day, when terrorists rip it all away.

Motivated by an unrelenting desire to even the score, Daniel leaves home and enlists in the Defense Force. There, he learns to pilot some of the military’s most secure intelligence collection assets: robotic Starlings that look and sound like the real thing.

Two years later, after discovering the DF isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, Daniel meets a rich, eccentric man with plans of his own for dealing with the terrorists. The payoff is great but so is the price. Daniel must leave behind everyone and everything he knows to journey to Geb, the terrorists’ home planet.

There, he teams up with a striking young woman with first-hand knowledge of the terrorists and together, they embark upon the most audacious mission in the history of warfare, one that promises to end the conflict once and for all, if everything goes according to plan.

It doesn’t.

What happens instead is far more outrageous and terrifying and Daniel Lyon has no idea how he’ll live through it.

Very captivating story! Reader was excellent!

This very captivating story held my interest from start to finish. Reader was very talented-characterizations were excellent-his reading for the protagonist, the reluctant terrorist, was particularly good! I can highly recommend.

How to be a terrorist in 10 easy lessons

Only the book isn’t NEAR as exciting as that sounds. In fact, it’s fairly boring.

The main character is a bit of a putz.
It’s a cynical story of a guy with the maturity of a 12 yr old and the language of a sailor. (If you can think of a cuss word, it’s in here.)

As he gets older, he doesn’t get much better. Nor does the story.

The book’s moral? The end justifies the means.
