Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soilless ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter. It has been centuries since the fall of the 10 consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armor.

Publisher's Summary
A daring heroine, a mysterious alien, a wild adventure.
Hickory Lace is an empath, but her sixth sense has lain dormant for years.
When the father who abandoned her as a child formally requests Hickory's release from the Alien Corps to check out the political stability on the remote planet Prosperine, she knows he's hiding something, but what?
Hickory's superiors are reluctant to let her go after her last mission failed so spectacularly. But they agree on the proviso she checks out an alien spiritualist known as the teacher. They believe he could be the one referred to in an ancient prophecy discovered nearly a hundred years before.
Prosperine is Earth's primary source of the liquid metal Crynidium, essential for faster-than-light space travel. When Hickory arrives, she discovers a planet drenched in radiation and a revolutionary who wants to auction off the precious metal and return the planet's society to the dark ages.
Outnumbered and outgunned, Hickory is faced with a choice. Admit to yet another failure and abandon the planet to its fate or use the powerful empathic gift she was born with, and at the same time determine exactly who or what the teacher represents.

Not the Sun, but the Son!
In the 20th and 21st centuries, control of oil is paramount, a cause for global manipulation and conflict. In author PJ McDermott's future, not anti-matter but a rare metal called crynidium is the ultimate power source. But the planet on which a large supply has been located remains too primitive for full contact with the allied species of space so negotiations are delicate. Meanwhile, the non-aligned species have fewer qualms about interfering with such a large prize in the offing; there is unrest within the planetary government; and religious "enlightenment" is in conflict with the established worship. Might this be a parallel to the Christian movement on earth? Hickory Lace, sent to investigate, has to balance all these facts and factions while remaining anonymous. Narration by Lia Michelle Negron helps bring to life the action, adventure and suspense although I fear for the main characters' future brains based on the number of disabling head blows received. Several intriguing aspects of species development are explored.

Original Star Treky Feel to it
“Alien Corps” is the first book in the “Prosperine” series which I would classify as a spiritual contemporary science fiction story; written by PJ McDermott. The audiobook was well narrated by Lisa Michelle Negron who has a few Audible titles under her belt at the time of this review. As a side note, the author has also available a prequel to this story called “Born of Fire”. The book’s main character (Hickory) is sent to a newly discovered planet so she can report back on its political association along with the availability of a precious element needed by Earth’s ships to achieve faster than light space travel. Additionally, she is assigned the role of seeking out and communicate with a spiritualist called “The Teacher” relating to a prophecy discovered long ago. Not only these, but our main character is also known for her blemished past from a previous assignment, which could affect her new assignment. If you enjoy more young adult science fiction writing style and a bit of spirituality woven in, you might find this book appealing. For me, the book was a bit fractured and flat compared to others in the genre. I’m not to say it is a bad book, but I found that it was quite different than what I had expected from its description. It was neither an amazing science fiction story nor a complete disaster. I found the story, its characters and its narration somewhat mediocre based on the number of the book I have listened too. However, I would say if you enjoy YA writing style and science fiction, you might find this book appealing.
From the book’s summary description, I did not expect it to be written in a YA-style. The conversations and sentence structure were often quite simplistic and lacked a sense of depth. With the detailed world-building, I felt like I was dropped into an original Star Trek series episode and I sat back to watch it unfold. However, I was hoping both the characters and story would align to take full advantage of this great world, but I did not feel they did. Many of the characters felt non-dimensional and I could not find a character that I really related too or cared for deeply. Again, this may be based on the book’s writing and story focus. I found the religious or spiritual aspects of the book an odd addition along with some questionable theological components. While I understand this is a piece of science fiction, I think the book could have done without the spiritual underpinnings and still been a good story.
I did enjoy the continued search and negotiation for this precious element as the story progressed. You can see the struggle between the relations to the planet’s inhabitants and was it more important than the resources necessary for space travel? Yet, at times there were technologies included on this distant and foreign world that are a part of our world that felt wrong to be elsewhere. For example, the GPS (global positioning system) reference that was used to track people on the planet, I felt it should have been called something else or referred to as something like our GPS. Although I will admit this was a small thing, I do remember clearly when it was used and how it pulled me from the story. There is a need for one to suspend belief while reading this story, and if you can get past that it is well laid out. I did like the superstitions of the tribal people when they met more modern-day weapons or objects and how they tried to explain them to one another.
The book’s narration by Lisa Michelle Negron was good. She was able to easily voice the multiple characters along with a few accents giving characters their own unique personalities. Some of the narration was a bit monotone or lacking inflection which the story required. The audio itself was clean and free of any artifacts I recall. The narrator’s voice was easy to understand, and the reading was at a good pace.
For parents and younger readers, take note that this book does contain vulgar language, alcohol use, some rather graphic depictions of torture, and some sexual subject matter (prostitution and innuendos) which may not be appropriate for all audiences.
In summary, although I did not find the book overly enjoyable, it was entertaining, and the world was well crafted. Most of the storylines are closed in this book, yet it is clear that there are going to be additional books in the series released. I would have liked for the author to have carried over the complexity of the world to the characters and the story itself as I believe this would have made it much more likable. Maybe future books in the series will give us the depth and escape many of us enjoy when listening to audiobooks.

A first for me!
Sci-fi definitely not my preferred genre but I had enjoyed a previous outing by the same author, 'Small fish big fish' set in Scotland in the 1960s. I thought I would give this a go anyway and so pleased I did! A really good storyline with wonderfully drawn characters that you could get invested in. A huge plus for me as someone who gets through a lot of Audible books was the narrator, probably the best so far. She managed to capture the essence of each of the players without being irritating. I learned that a good strong story stands on its own whatever the setting so looking forward to the further adventures of the Alien Corps.

A ripping good yarn!
I was transported to the Prosperine world early on and enjoyed the adventures of the 3 main characters. Parallels with a similar biblical character of our time throughout their adventures left you guessing till the end! Looking forward to Atlantis- next in the series I reckon!
