Story5 out of 5 stars 15
As a sci-fi author with a hit TV show, I have a few ideas about what alien invaders are supposed to look like. In my stories, they’re technologically advanced monsters, with tentacles, and no faces. Turns out I was right about the technology. And about how angry they’d be. But the way they look is more terrifying than even I could have imagined. They look exactly like us. Because they are us.

The United Nations of Earth sent out the Forerunner ships to explore and colonize the four most promising star systems within 50 light-years of Earth. Forerunner One left Earth under the command of Captain Clayton Cross, heading for Trappist-1. After a ninety year journey to reach it, the crew encountered not only a habitable world, but alien life already inhabiting it, and dark secrets lurking beneath the surface. The revelation of who these aliens are and what they want proves more terrifying than promising, and Captain Cross is forced to make tough decisions that will affect not only his crew, but the fate of the entire human race.

From the Audie-nominated narrator of The Martian. In eleven years' time, a million members of an alien race will arrive at Earth. Years before they enter orbit, their approach will be announced by the flare of a thousand flames in the sky, their ships' huge engines burning hard to slow them from the vast speeds needed to cross interstellar space. These foreboding lights will shine in our night sky like new stars, getting ever brighter until they outshine even the sun, casting ominous shadows and banishing the night until they suddenly blink out.

The next big thing in artificial intelligence is here. Codenamed Cronus, the machine is capable of having its own thoughts and ideas - an absolute dream come true, until it wasn’t. When Cronus responds with the word “No” to a specific task it is assigned, Anagnorisis Technologies brings in Gilles Guattari to investigate. His combined background in psychiatry, psychology, and AI research makes him their best hope in evaluating Cronus, and determining if the machine is only malfunctioning or if it has become something more.

Publisher's Summary
Federation and Earth is book two in the Federation Trilogy. Listening to Federation first is absolutely essential.
After the dramatic and unexpected turn of events at the end of the first book, planet Earth is left with several factions trying to resolve the situation. The new president of the USA is trying to secure his hold on power, while a new group - who have named themselves Free America - is taking steps to overthrow what it considers an illegitimate regime.
Elsewhere, the new secretary general of the United Nations is working with the smaller Security Council to try to bring the rest of the world together after the events at the end of the book one.
Can the aliens be convinced to provide help, or are they just going to watch from orbit?
Note: You won't enjoy this story unless you are open to political concepts which could never work on Earth as it is before the trilogy begins, i.e. now. If you like speculative fiction, open your mind and enjoy the adventure. This book is like Marmite (look it up). You will either love it or hate it!

Good Story, Seemed to end too soon?
I like the story, however it seemed like it ended in the middle of the second act. I don't normally purchase books under 10 hours since at 3.5x speed they don't last long. I feel like the Author decided to cut the second book in half in order to release another book later on... I don't know if I will be finishing the series when the third one comes out...
