Stranded

Starship of the Ancients, Book 1

De: A.K. DuBoff

Narrado por: Greg Tremblay

Shipwrecked on a distant planet. Mysterious alien relics. His fresh start just turned into an interstellar conspiracy.

After an undercover investigation goes bad, ex-soldier Evan hopes to forge a new life on a remote colony world. But when the transport ship explodes in orbit, his plans for a peaceful early retirement go out the airlock.

He crash-lands with a small group of settlers, away from the target site, and with limited resources. Unable to call for help off-world, Evan and the mission's xenobiologist Anya race for survival in the dangerous wilds—until they realize they aren't alone on the planet.

Evan's investigative instincts tell him that nothing about this colony mission going awry is an accident. When evidence points to an ancient alien starship hidden somewhere on the planet, he realizes that solving the mystery will be the biggest case of his life.

Can Evan survive the hostile planet long enough to uncover the truth?

Stranded is the thrilling first installment in the Starship of the Ancients series. If you like suspenseful space adventures with dynamic characters, alien worlds, and escalating interstellar intrigue, then you'll love this riveting new space opera by author A.K. DuBoff, creator of the Cadicle Universe.

Ok - convenient and predictable

Characters seem like a “first date” . That said the underlying story is interesting. I will continue listening to the series

Pedestrian

Splendid, top drawer narration. Conversations came across as written, rehearsed lines, not real world. Technology blend was an inconsistent, odd mix of old and new. Not delving further, this series.

Good story!

I liked the storyline but thought the conversation between Evan and Onya, while crossing the planet was unnecessary. Their goals were very dangerous (killer animals, vines and people), yet they kept having time to talk to each other like they were on a first date.

Good story and we'll worth the read

The narration was noteworthy, and made the entire story sing with excitement. I hope the rest of the series is narrated as well.

Twists and turns

I thoroughly enjoyed this work and looking forward to the next book on audible. The twists and turns were unexpected?
