Publisher's summary

At the end of the world, who will escape?

Operation Redemption, the final desperate mission in taking back the planet from the Organics has failed. Captain Rick Noble and his soldiers have been captured and imprisoned on an alien ship. But not all is lost. Their sacrifice allowed Doctor Sophie Winston, Doctor Emanuel Rodriguez, and their small team to escape in the NTC Sunspot - their destination, Mars. The perilous journey to find a lost human colony may offer Sophie and the rest of humanity a chance at life.

Those left on Earth are caught in a life-and-death struggle. Corporal Athena Rollins of the NTC Ghosts of Atlantis submarine still believes they can beat the aliens with the help of AI Alexia, but time is running out. The oceans are draining, the temperatures are rising, and the other pockets of survivors are perishing every day.

Trapped on the Organic ship, Captain Rick Noble is desperate to escape and save his crew back on Earth. As he waits for his opportunity he finds an ally in the most unlikely of places.

The fight for Earth may be lost, but the fight for Mars and the future of the human race may have just begun....

REALLY SOLID ENDING BUT...

So, this was a long series. This is book 4 of 4. Book 1 so great well written, moving story, good plot set up and character develpment. Then book 2. Also great. This book is of course well written, moves the story along allowing so much to be possible about the way distant ending of this story. People pass you wouldn't believe would this early. Just crazy details about vivid scenes...really well done. Book 3...really major plot twists. Really great descriptive scenes with a slower moving timeline with more heartfelt detail of characters and such. However, when it ended, I was still dying to know how the story might possible end...and then came book 4. It is well written, wonderful narration. The story really is noticeably dragging on. I'm thinking..."ugh, there couldn't possibly be yet another tragic or action packed sequence prior to finding out at least some of what is going to happen.." but then nope...it WAS another action sequence and it took really long to get to the end of this one. Also, the ending was really "nice". Like clean and tidy with a small idea that someday maybe there is a threat...maybe way later. Like..??? Really was hoping for something different than...They all lived happily ever after...for now. Dun Dun DUNNNNN! But good and wrapped up and not a waste of a minute. The whole set was great overall!

Great book!

NSS is one of my favorite authors with titles like Hell Divers, Extinction Cycle, Trackers and Orbs he has taken me on some wild adventures. Throw in Anthony J. Melchiorri and this book topped of the Orbs series nicely.

Enjoyed this book, enjoyed the series

Nicolas did a masterful job in telling this story. I can only hope he choses to continue with Sophie, Emanuel, Balma, Holly, Diego, Jeff, and David's growth. How they build their new world, and of course what new foe will threaten the new colony's way of life. W. C.

I hope there will be one more book in this series!

I’d love to hear a follow up story...this is too interesting to leave on just a happy ending. I’d like to know more about the colony and all it’s settlers. More about the new planet too.
What an imaginative adventure this series takes the reader on. This has truly been one of my MOST favorite series. I will revisit it again from book one-four to savor all it all over again.
