Discovery

Publisher's Summary

Exploring New Earth should be a thrilling undertaking. Instead, the more the colonists learn about the planet, the more alarmed they become. Alien ruins hint at a species who fought great wars among themselves and disappeared centuries ago.  

When Connor Gates discovers a hidden bunker, he finds something he never expected. Everything the colonists have learned about New Earth’s previous inhabitants is wrong. Connor must race to unravel the mystery. The colonists must face the possibility that they are not alone and that New Earth was never theirs for the taking.

Slow unraveling of New Earth mysteries-Disappoints

Emphasis on slow. A book so short shouldn't have such a slow start. One of the mysteries in the book involve wondering why the main character, Conner is Mayor as well as principal explorer. We gradually discover(with Conner) mysteries associated with the NEIIS (New Earth Indigenous Intelligent Species) apparently pronounced "Newies" and Ryclar. The archaeological techniques using thermite explosives, shovels and hands seem more akin to Schliemman(who used similar techniques to excavate Troy in 1875) than a space-faring archaeologist. Disappointing.

I absolutely love this series. I am eagerly awaiting the next installment. And Scott Aiello does a marvelous job, as always.

good

good book and the story!!!!!!
to de go toe it to but green blue to be bead

Looks like some thing are still kicking around

This one puts us back in Connor's shoes and it's a welcome change. So if book 4 put you off this one will bring you back.

Shallow and Predictable Characters.

I have to say, this will be the last book I read from this author. I really like the concept but, the characters are just too shallow and predictable. The conflict seems forced and, in some ways, unrealistic. This feels like something a teenager would write.

Great Story

I love how this story is progressing. I can't wait till the audio is ready for the next book.

Excellent Series

I found the first book in this series as a buy Kindle get audible book so it was basically $2.98 for both books. I proceeded to download the rest of the series one after the other. They have been a great listen I've devoured the whole series in a week. The first chapter is the hardest then it's impossible to put down. I can't wait for the next book on audible. There is lots of action and new discoveries through out. I got so caught up I didn't want to even sleep. Try it you won't be disappointed.

Very good Concept - back to Connor Gates

I thought this book was an excellent continuation of a series that has really gone far. All books so far have been totally unique, but the saga and the new world has really expanded. This one really focused back on the original Connor Gates - he is mostly featured and his role in this book is perfect. Back to being a badass and back to being the focal point; but this story is much more. It really show the progression of the storyline, where the story can go, and keeps you guessing. yea there are some frustrating characters written in - but you have to paint the picture somehow as a writer. I think this is one of the best, but I think that after each title in this series. Keep it up, you can expand this "universe" in many different directions.

Better than Book 4

Enjoyed the book .Strongly advise to read the previous books before this one .
Nice one
