Resumen del Editor

The Rift has opened.

The aliens invaded.

The Eureka is on the other side.

Flint, Wren, and Ace, along with Charles, are now members of the Eureka, a state-of-the-art vessel heading for a world in the far reaches of a new galaxy. Sixty years ago a colony ship was sent there, along with someone close to their benefactor.

But when they arrive, they find getting to the surface isn’t as easy as they thought. With a crash-landing, and news that shocks the entire crew, they must collectively find a way to get the Pilgrim off-planet and into the fight against the Watchers.

One of the crew leaves from orbit, spelling betrayal, and the others know time is against them. They must create a virus and bring it to the enemy’s home world, but not everything is as it seems.

Join our heroes as they fight for the future, knowing an all-out war awaits them back home, on the other side of the Rift.

Revenge is an exciting tale of comradery, risks, infiltration, and surprise twists.

The adventures contines

I fully enjoyed this the second book of the series, I have ordered the next book the last in the series, It's a great read, I thought it was very good, how the author told the story from different perspectives of the people. It worked wonderfully. Recommended

The writing is a bit cheesy at times, many times

Overall it’s an okay book. The story is interesting, but sometimes the writing gets so cheesy and cliche I want barf, that being said I will finish the series out.

Keeps you routing for the human race

As the second book in the series it adds to the story whys & wherefores. The characters become stronger & blend in the challenges they face. There are hidden agendas & a multitude of surprises as they get closer to the "return".

Good performance of those doing the characters.

Starting the Return now. Hope for the conclusion to be as spell binding as the 1st two books.

I liked the story but will pass on the agenda

I really love listening to sci-fi audio books. My collection at this point is made up of hundreds of books purchased over years. However, I’ve started to notice a trend a feminist trend. I get that the books are sci-fi and designed to be out of this world but there should be some realism to them. What I realized is that these books and others are now written to portray men as incompetent, emotional, unreliable, role reversible with women. We have thousands of years of history to establish mens standard of behavior and women’s. What confuses me is I doubt women are buying these books in mass. So the only logical train of thought would be that they expect to convince young men to think this about themselves. I’m starting to think being a man in America is a bad thing. You need to aa feminine man who is submissive to women. 22 years of military service and then this.

Great second book in the series

Great addition to the series. Enjoyed the story and it is nice to have several voice actors.

good listen

I hate being forced to write words when there are ranking questions... now for fifteen words...

Great storyline. Not just a rehash of familiar sci-fi

I got used to the different readers but it took a bit to keep me listening.

This a serial not a novel.

Nathan Hystad must be really hungry. Most multi part stores at least pretend to sort of stand alone with the characters moving on to new things in the next part. This reminds me of going out to see a Saturday afternoon movie back in the 1950's. Before or after the main feature they would show a continuing serial "Buck Rogers" or "Sky King, etc." they would end with the girl tied to the rail road tracks and the train would come roaring down the tracks while the hero tried to untie her . The next thing you see is the train roaring by with the girl and hero no where in sight. If you went the the same theater the next Saturday you would see the hero rescue the girl and step off to the other side of the train just as it arrived. Often the serial would then quickly finish what they started the last week and go on to start something else then leave than without a finish.

My point is neither part one or part two can stand alone. Audible used to take a long novel like this and charge more credits for it. Now they suck you in one credit at a time.

Having said all that I am sucked in and am going to buy the third book. I hope book three has a solid ending. After that I would welcome more books with these characters just start new story lines.

Good story Bad narration

Good story but no reason to have so many narrators. And several narrators were terrible from the always desperate to the monotone. Additionally volume would noticeably change between chapters. One good narrator would have made all the difference. Now at the end of this book just don’t care what happens to any of the characters. A good book gone bad.

This series is not looking up!

One reviewer said this should be a YA book and she/he was right. I, too, had to wonder how a 16 year old could be such an outstanding fighter pilot and had to continuously save one person or a group of people. AND how about Jarden who's 110 years old but he's in such a hurry to see his family, after 60 years, that he insists on taking off at a RUN in the dark, on a world that they just arrived on, having no idea what might be filled with aliens or killer animals. Other than that this was a decent book, but it could have been better AND it was another cliffhanger. Like so many others I'm tired of authors who leave a book to where you have to buy the next one to find out what happened. I'm not sure I'll read the last book since I'm sure the Earth kills all the Watchers, and I'm not sure it's worth my time to read another one about a kid who saves the world again and again.

No romance and no swearing. Definitely YA.

As for the narrators: Another reason why I'm not sure I'll listen to the next book. First of all there should never be more than one narrator to a book, if they are going to be doing the same voice. Now, we have 7 narrators and it was terrible! If they can't even try to sound masculine or feminine they should NOT call themselves narrators. Men sound like women and women sound like men! How can any of you call yourselves narrators?
