The Reckoning

The Earthburst Saga, Book 8

De: Craig A. Falconer

Narrado por: Scott Aiello

I thought I'd seen it all. Talk about your all-time wake-up calls...

Earth is teeming with alien larvae.

That reality has just crashed down on us like a ton of contaminated space rocks.

Every time I close my eyes, I still see the huge spider-like monster rising up.

I killed that one just in time, but we know that more could hatch at any moment.

Even worse... we know that if any of them reach their final form, they'll be indestructible.

Now, our only hope of saving Earth from this ticking time-bomb lies on the distant world of Eden.

The problem? We have reason to think the natives engineered this stuff.

If there was any other route forward, we'd be taking it.

We wouldn't be blazing this uncharted path to potentially hostile territory.

But with one card left to play in a game we can't afford to lose, I can't keep my mind from fixating on one unshakeable question:

Are we racing towards Earth's salvation... or on a one-way trip to oblivion?

Series keeps improving on itself

This is a great series, it does not jump stories around too quickly but does not drag out a single storyline.

Too much unnecessary chatter

The story is is good but ruined by a main character that is barely tolerable. Why the author chose to stuff his mouth with so much dialog, but I found myself yelling for him to shut up frequently. Had I any better series to go to, I would have booted this one, but alas, I trudged on. If you don't have anything better, this will pass the time.

A good story

A good read. It’s a long series but interesting. If you like sci fi stories, there are a lot of twists and turns in the series

Adventure!!

I just love the whole series. No spoilers though. Falconer does justice to sci-fi again!

getting really boring

the issue here is that the story is very good but how the book is written is like trying to make last week soup last for 10 days....
really everything up to here could have been just 2 books...
so many things repeated that i am so bored by now that i will give back the entire serie !!!
Scott is amazing as usual !!!
