Very interesting sci-fi

A very good and very interesting sci-fi book it was very enjoyable and very well return surprising and some moments I loved it a lot it was a very great and not so long listen a very very good book the narrator was very good as well

Perfect blend of SCI-Fi and Action/espionage.

Very interesting tale. A great combination of genres that peaks your interest and keeps the story flowing. Great characters and the tech is really cool.
Van stumbles onto some advance alien tech. He sets out on a philanthropic quest to save the world.
Some very surprising twists with plenty adventure and intrigue. Looking forward to the next book.

The narration was nicely done. Plenty of different voices with great emotional queues.

I requested a free review copy of this audiobook and I am leaving an honest and voluntary review.

Good Read

Future Discovered (Host Saga #1) was a good read by Michael J. Farlow. Van Childs’ accidentally discovered an alien cache of advanced technologies. Now he finds himself the reluctant hero. The Host is an extra-terrestrial race who visited Earth 200 years before. Van is forewarned of an invasion by the Akron, an expansionist race. I enjoyed reading this book and cant wait to read more by the author.

Interesting

This was an interesting book to listen too. I enjoyed the storyline and the foresight of the Host. It'll be a journey to see how things turn out for everyone.

Where's book 2,3,and 4

I was waiting for some good old Earth vs Allies, but the story is mostly just the prerequisite with Earth bound cloak and dagger. Now that the stage is set, I want to hear the rest.

Far far so good.....

Action packed, with lots of tech and AI!

3.5/5

I like the general premise of the story and how it started, the tech that is within, and also the pacing of the story. Things got a bit jump the shark-ish with what the MC was able to do, and I was also miffed about some of the plot devices used to fulfill a necessary action to move the story forward. I was especially miffed at the interactions of the MC and the antagonist. They walk a think line between of being Mary-Stu's, and I have no idea how any of the "stalemates" occur in the story. Like other reviews stated, this book comes awfully close to two different popular books in the genre; I partially agree, but I also believe the author steers it away by the end of the book. Also, having bigger heads/brains does not make you smarter. ;)

At the end of the day, this wasnt that bad of a read - give it chance; you may like it!
