Acerca de esta escucha
Commander Lisa Chao works in the US Navy's Strategic Planning Center in Pearl Harbor.
When tensions rise with China over Taiwan, she has to unravel exactly what's happening in the Pacific and why. What she uncovers leads America to war—but not with China.
Bullets and bombs are no match for an extraterrestrial warship that can fly between stars, but perhaps the answer to the coming war lies not in the present but in the past. Could Sun Tzu's The Art of War provide humanity with a fighting chance against a technologically superior alien enemy?
First Contact is a series of standalone novels that explore humanity's first interactions with extraterrestrial life.
Includes a special note from the author.

Historia
Mankind has long dreamed of reaching out to live on other planets, and with the establishment of the Mars Endeavour colony, that dream has become reality. The fledgling colony consists of 120 scientists, astronauts, medical staff, and engineers. Buried deep underground, they're protected from the harsh radiation that sterilizes the surface of the planet. The colony is prepared for every eventuality except one - what happens when disaster strikes Earth?

Historia
Hazel is a regular teenager growing up in an irregular world overrun with zombies. She likes music, perfume, freshly baked muffins, and playing her Xbox - everything that no longer exists in the apocalypse. Raised in the safety of a commune, Hazel rarely sees Zee anymore, except on those occasions when the soldiers demonstrate the importance of a headshot to the kids. To her horror, circumstances beyond her control lead her outside the barbed wire fence and into a zombie-infested town.

Historia
Daniel Rice is a government science investigator whose specialty is solving seemingly intractable problems through scientific inquiry. But Daniel's intellectual strength is sorely tested by the bizarre realities he finds in the quantum world. Extra dimensions of space trap the unwary, probability replaces cause and effect, and time isn't what anyone imagined. The other side of the mirror is a place full of dangers, but it's also somewhere a dedicated scientist can uncover secrets that connect humans with something greater.

Historia
No one has ever ventured deeper into space than the four astronauts of Shepherd-1. The aim of their mission is to witness the creation of the cosmos. Using the sun as a lens, they are to align a flock of probes in such a way that the moment of the Big Bang becomes visible. For astronomer Christine, this is a dream come true. So she is bitterly disappointed when the first images are obscured by a kind of veil that prevents any insight. She works obsessively to find a solution, but when she finally succeeds in lifting the veil, she sees something that would have been better kept hidden...

Equipped with the entirety of human knowledge, a sentient ship is launched on a last-ditch journey to find a new home for civilization. Trillions of miles. Tens of thousands of years. In the space between, the AI has plenty of time to think about life, the vastness of the universe, everything it was meant to do, and—with a perspective created but not limited by humans—what it should do.

Merritt Alder is done with Earth. The planet is polluted and overpopulated, and its people are hungry. Earth's first colony, Galena, is a pioneer world 10,000 light years away. It has clean air, unpolluted water, and continents of arable land. Anyone can start a new life…if they can get there. For Merritt, the journey is only the beginning. Obstacles arise every step of the way, forcing compromise and sacrifice. And not everyone on his ship is pure of heart. The bonds he forges on the journey will be the key to surviving on another world—a world anyone has yet to fully explore.

Historia
Decades after the last footprints were left on the Moon, the US was preparing to return to the Lunar surface in a new class of rockets, when the mission suddenly became much more urgent. It would have to be a rescue mission. Unbeknownst to the rest of the world China had sent its own Lunar expedition. A manned expedition. Until a distress call was received, no human outside of China even knew that the mission was manned - or that their ship had crash-landed and couldn't take off again.

Well based on realistic science.
Breath sounds after most sentences. Reader was good otherwise.
Story was well worth tolerating it.

Mixed feeling but worth a summer read
I think it was interesting enough... the disappointment is during the conclusion... no give aways... but didnt go far enough. Too much about the aliens is unexplained. However over all I enjoyed the story and the presentation.
I wont say too many cliches... however,... if you have read many fiction books.... I dare say, it predictable. Again mixed feelings... even being predictable, I found it enjoyable. Unfortunately, any thing I mention specific is a give away, and Im hoping you give it a read or listen. I did enjoy, the explanations about, the possible whys and whens and about life on this planet.
I think serious sci fi readers will call this a read for the beach , quick, fun, and worth the effort
thank you

One of his best books
I've listened to most of Peter Cawdron's books and in my opinion this is one of his best. It's a plausible sci/fi first contact situation with plausible reactions from world leaders, it's relatable.

creative idea, science plausible, well-narrated
this was a really fun read. I had never heard of the author before, but he writes very well, the characters are developed but not overdeveloped, there was drama and suspense, and the concepts were reasonably plausible. The narrators we're excellent as well. I will pursue the rest of this First Contact series. The idea of this series to explore how first contact might happen at different times in human history is creative.
