Publisher's summary

When the Rho Project’s lead scientist, Dr. Donald Stephenson, is imprisoned for his crimes against humanity, the world dares to think the threat posed by the Rho Project’s alien technologies is finally over. The world is wrong. In Switzerland, scientists working on the Large Hadron Collider have discovered a new threat, a scientific anomaly capable of destroying the earth - and only Rho Project technology can stop it. In exchange for a full pardon, Dr. Stephenson agrees to create a wormhole that will send the anomaly into deep space.

But his promise masks the alien agenda that brought the Rho Ship to earth. Now a trio of accidentally altered humans must infiltrate Stephenson’s wormhole project and stop it, no matter the cost. The final battle has begun - and this is one battle mankind cannot afford to lose.

Great Trilogy

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Start at the 2nd ship and then progress to end. It's REALLY worth the money. The story is very original, complex, and well thought out. The author creates situations that should only be presented to adults, without sinking into un-necessary details (one doesn't have to smell the excrement to know that it stinks). Why don't other authors do that?
I'll definitely look for other titles by this author.

Also, the Narrator does a great job. I hope the publisher doesn't do something stupid like using a different narrator to save money.

Sorry it's over!!!

Finished this 3rd book in the trilogy yesterday and I'm totally jonesing for another trilogy just like it!

I'm off to find out what else Richard Phillips has written.

Also can't wait to read this one over again in the future.

This was the most fun I've had reading scifi in a long, long time!

Great finish to a fantastic trilogy

I would highly recommend this book and trilogy to almost anyone. The pace is just right for thrills and sci-fi adventure. Most of the characters were interesting and the teens (doing some growing up away from home I guess) arent as teen-y. I have been drawn into this story from the beginning and the second and this third book keep things going without letdown.

far from average

pretty darn good for a third in the series book. Not a re hashing of the same storyline. Great book!

Liked it, liked it a lot!

Liked it for it's many mini-plots making full circle explaining information that I will need to learn about nuclear fusion, nano technology, quantum field theory, etc...
I will recommend this to anyone who is interested.

great except for all the sadomasochistic rapists

Not recommended for teenagers. I wouldn't want to be in the mind of this author.

An Entertainment

As a piece of poetic literature, the Rho Series is not…however it is a cleverly built sci-fi entertainment in the vein of the Twilight Zone, which is tongue and cheekily mentioned within the series. It reminds me of early Tom Clancy, in its descriptions of fighting and the close future extrapolations of possible technologies. It also reminded me of Tade Thompson’s writing. Enjoyable reading.

James Bond Meets Witch Mountain

This book is what you' d get if you put James Bond and the Disney Witch Mountain series into a blender. This is a great book and is actually the best of the three in this series in my opinion. This is so action packed and over the top, but it works beautifully. This ends the series well but leaves plenty to explore in the next book (which he is currently working on).

Macleod Andrews is top notch. There are a lot of characters and each sounds different. In fact, none of the myriad of voices even sound similar to characters in other series he reads. How he pulls that off is beyond me. Simply Amazing. This is a great novel and definitely worth a listen.
