Publisher's Summary

It's been more than 10 years since the war with the NeHaw ended in an uneasy truce. During that time, Jake Thomas has been relegated from battlefield commander and chief to the role of interstellar bureaucrat. To add to his frustrations, he is now father to a passel of teens and preteens, all with their father's propensity for getting into trouble. However, unexplained violations around the Human/NeHaw Neutral Zone and the mysterious disappearances of people in a remote backwater town in Arizona has everyone, Human and NeHaw alike, pointing fingers and threatening war. As things come to the boiling point, it becomes clear that a powerful third party has entered the game, and it may just require former enemies to unite to overcome their common threat.

Good book

Good book but the narrator was changed and didn’t like him they need to go back to the original narrator he does much better job

Narrator change sucked

Spent the whole time listening to the sucky narration and not emerged into the story

Character Voices are Horrible!

What happened? Did the Author or production crew decide to save money and go with the lowest bidder for Characture voices? This book was almost too painful to listen to.

I love this series. but WTF?

the book felt clipped like just when it was getting interesting, it was cut to make way for the new one. totally obvious and honestly just pissed me off. I have no issue with the author. the story is still fun but the reader. I mean. wow. who picked this guy. His stile of reading particularly the strange cadance of his speach with his inability to do voices and seemingly emotionless reading that left me wanting. im super close to asking for my money back. I think I'll just buy the book

hmmmm.

the story is great. wish they didn't jump 10 years pluss. and changing voice. ahhhhhhh. you shouldn't. this narrator is to breathy on females and some of the men are to deep.

the kids getting dads abilities rock!

narrator change, really?

couldn't even get started due to the narrator. go back to David Drummond or I'll want my money back.

change of voice narrator

I was very disappointed to hear the voice had changed from 1 through 4 of the series. when you listen to almost 30 hours of one voice and build characters it's disturbing to lose that.

Good

Enjoy the story performance was great. Looking forward to the next installment. My only gripe is that the story was too short!.

Excellent continuation of the Rebuild...

At first I did not like the change of the Narrator from the first four books & this one. After some time I discovered that this narrator has a more clear & distinct voice inflection with a slightly higher volume. Once I acclimatized to the change, I went back & restarted... allowing a better immersion into the AL:ICE universe.

Good space adventure

Enjoy the book going the next one now ! Better on audio book,again great book

why has the narrator changed

I couldn't get into the flow of the story with this narration. I even tried listening through the whole series again. Why didn't Mr David Drummond read this book? Its ruined the series for me. I couldn't even finish the book.

good story but narrator change.

expecting Mr Drummond? sorry narrator has changed result female adults sound like children, teenagers sound about 6 to 8 years. Fortunately part way in he drops the higher pitch adult female voice.
I have previous books so to me its not as good.
new to series? You will probably not mind.
Story itself is okay a bit of revisiting the back story which new listners may need.
