From Above - A Novella

By: Jeremy Robinson

Narrated by: Jeffrey Kafer

Far in the future, the Earth is surrounded by a half-mile thick layer of space junk, some of it trash, some of it giant advertising billboards, some of it space-winni vacationers. But Priest, a sexist narcotics detective for The Authority is more interested in the terrorist group whose strange new weapon took a pot shot at his city and atomized everything inside its target area--including his arm.

Priest finds himself partnered with the tough and sexy Rehna, a fellow Authority officer, and Gawyn, a brilliant little girl whose gruff attitude matches Priest's. The three of them track down the terrorists, and their weapon, while Priest looks to deliver his unique brand of justice and get compensation for not one, but two ruined Tac-suits.

Critic reviews

"Rocket-boosted action, brilliant speculation, and the recreation of a horror out of the mythologic past, all seamlessly blend into a rollercoaster ride of suspense and adventure." (James Rollins, New York Times best-selling author of Jake Random and the Skull King's Shadow)

"With Threshold Jeremy Robinson goes pedal to the metal into very dark territory. Fast-paced, action-packed and wonderfully creepy! Highly recommended!" (Jonathan Maberry, NY Times best-selling author of Rot & Ruin)

"Jeremy Robinson is the next James Rollins" (Chris Kuzneski, NY Times best-selling author of The Secret Crown)

Awesome characters!

Really great short story, the characters are interesting and likable. (come on JR, let’s see them again!). The story is action packed and well thought out. This is a world that should have “future” possibilities!

Good but too short

The story is good but far too short, there was lots of room for expansion. The wasn't enough "mystery" and clues. Where this could have been several hours of hunting, finding, and world building a lot of it is just kind of slung out there, and moved on from it.
Still good story, lots of fun. Perhaps it can be expanded into more of a novel / series later on. JR is a great author.

A quick, fun listen

I really enjoyed listening to this short story. The first person narrative was different and the characters were entertaining. It's a quick but fun listen. Kafer does a great job bringing he characters to life.

A fun quick listen

As usual Jeremy tells a good story and finds just the right narrator. A great short listen.

I received this free review audiobook and I am voluntarily leaving this unbiased review.

Snarky fun

Watch out for invisible things from above. Wow, it only took us 3000 years for things to stay the same. Cute story, too short for a credit but buy it. You will not be disappointed.
