Starborn: The Lost Colony of Earth

Starborn, Book 1

By: Jasper T. Scott

Narrated by: Jonathan Davis

From bestselling author Jasper T. Scott.

They are not from Earth—yet they rule it from the shadows.

When Aldric Vale, a lone freelancer for the Interstellar Concord, follows a mysterious signal to an obscure star system, he expects to find a dead outpost—not a thriving world of eight billion people. The inhabitants call it Earth.

By rights, the planet should have rejoined the Concord centuries ago. Instead, its existence was buried by a cabal of immortal elites who use Earth as their private paradise, while its people remain oblivious.

After a deadly encounter cripples his ship, Aldric is stranded. Trapped on a world that isn't supposed to exist, he must infiltrate the cabal to escape—and expose the truth.

Then he meets Lena Hart, a fearless journalist chasing clues she never should have found.

Protecting her forces Aldric to make an impossible choice: free an entire world of unwitting slaves… or save the one woman who has made this forbidden planet feel like home.

Best new sci-fi book in a very long time

I love this book. I get bored really easily with a lot of sci-fi. This one is original and fresh. I can’t put it down.

Great start to a new series.

This was well written and well read. I really enjoyed it. Story is pretty much non-stop action and the characters are easy to love and hate. Some fun twists. A fantastic listen overall. Already looking forward to the next book on Audible.
