Primordial Threat

De: M.A. Rothman

Narrado por: Tim Campbell

The year is 2066, and the world is oblivious to the threat it faces.

The fate of humanity lies on the shoulders of Burt Radcliffe, the new head of NASA's Near Earth Object program. He's been rushing the completion of DefenseNet, a ring of satellites that are both part of an early-warning system, as well as the means to eliminate incoming threats.

Yet Burt knows that despite the world's best efforts, nothing can be done about the alert he's just received. Coming out of deep space is a danger that's been approaching since the dawn of time. A black hole. An unstoppable threat that promises death for all in its wake.

Dave Holmes was a modern-day Einstein. As the original architect of DefenseNet, he'd had visions of this Primordial Threat before he disappeared, yet he'd left behind no details on how the problem might be solved. Can Holmes be found, and if so, will his solution even work?

The world has less than a year to find out.

Wow ... what an amazing suprise.

OMG, I have not read or listened to this author before and had no real expectations. I thoroughly, thoroughly enjoyed this. I have just finished listening to it and cannot wait to listen to the sequel. What a beautiful setup for a sequel. Yup, loved it. I hope it is made into a movie it would be a great one.

Prepare to suspend disbelief and enjoy the ride

Rothman stretches science and human nature to spin a positive tale that is vastly entertaining and still leaves plenty of room for a sequel if not an entire series.

Kept my interest

Just enough suspense to keep me listening, but not so thrilling that I had to worry about my driving
