Dan Delgado is a private investigator. He’s unenthusiastic, and unmatched. As a former San Francisco detective, he misses more meaningful work, but he hasn’t had the heart for it since his wife’s death five years prior. That is, until a phone call from a distraught mother, an illegal immigrant who can’t go to the police, puts him on the hunt for a missing little girl. By the time he reaches the mother’s small home, she’s missing, too. Then a team of heavily armed mercenaries arrive. Delgado and crew are plunged into a dangerous world of corporate competition, UFO lore, and government cover-ups.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 1,097
On a cold spring night in 1952, a huge meteorite fell to earth and obliterated much of the East Coast of the US, including Washington, DC. The ensuing climate cataclysm will soon render the Earth inhospitable for humanity, as the last such meteorite did for the dinosaurs. This looming threat calls for a radically accelerated effort to colonize space and requires a much-larger share of humanity to take part in the process. Elma York’s drive to become the first lady astronaut is so strong that even the most dearly held conventions of society may not stand a chance against her.

Harmony House is more than a “special place for special people.” It’s a think tank where high-functioning autistic savants harness their unique abilities for the benefit of society. Resident Eddie Parks’s contribution: an “echo box” that can re-create never-recorded sounds using acoustic archeology. All Eddie wants is to hear his late mother’s voice. But what he’s created is inadvertently posing a threat to national security. To Harmony House’s shadowy government backers and radical extremists, the echo box is the ultimate intelligence asset - an end to the very concept of secrecy.

Publisher's Summary
The ships came at dawn. Dean’s wife is dead. Her last words: When the ships come...wear the necklace. Then the ships arrived.
Cities all around the world reported strange alien vessels descending. Some saw them as the heralds of a new age; others fired everything they had at them. All were taken as the beams lashed down and drew them into the sky.
Dean was left behind, seemingly the last man on Earth. A trail of clues left by his dead wife guides Dean on a perilous journey across America and beyond to learn the truth behind the mysterious ships and save humanity from its doom.
But not everything is as it seems.
The Event is the epic first novel by Nathan Hystad, creator of the best-selling Explorations anthology series.

Did not inspire me to get the next book.
The Event – The overall story was good, but moved rather slowly. The characters were not as well developed as I would have liked. Luke Daniels did a great job but had less intensity in this book than he had in others. Unfortunately it did not inspire me to get the next book.

Worth the purchase
Listened to the first three books and will be grabbing the 4th & 5th as they become available on Audible. Save humanity,save earth,menacing aliens,secrets hidden in antiquity. What will you do? No pressure aye. :)
I found it a fun listen & Luke Daniels is always a good choice for narrator. It looks like this author's 1st series on Audible. I'll be looking for more in the future.

First contact might be the end...
Getting a copy of this book was kinda a no-brainer...
A first-contact story? Ummm... ✔
Whispersynced? Ditto ✔
Narrated by Luke Daniels... Yup! Yet another ✔
So I went ahead and grabbed it...
It turns out that this first alien contact maybe the end for the human race... For some strange reason, Dean wasn't taken by the alien's people-snatching beam! Dean teams up with his neighbors dog, and they find themselves rushing to Machu Picchu try to save the human race... The premise is a bit sketchy but there were enough twists and plot turns to keep me entertained... and I did enjoy the end of the adventure!
Luke Daniels, as per usual, did a great job on narration with this audio tale!

Great read and awesome narration..
I enjoyed this book a lot. It was about an invasion and the few people left on earth to save the billions of people taken by the aliens and put in containers and sent toward the sun so they could have earth.
The characters were great; Dean and Mary, Magnus and Natalia, and Mae near the end of the story, and Carey, Dean’s neighbor’s dog. A neighbor who didn’t make, along with billions of others.
Of course, this book left it open for the next book because Dean told everyone that “it wasn’t over, yet.”
There was no swearing to speak of and no sex so this book was definitely G-rated. And, unfortunately, G-rated books are really not my thing. In real life I’d expect a lot more swearing than “s**t” used two times when people are getting into all kinds of scary-crazy-dangerous-deadly situations. A good read but I won’t be moving on to the next book. This was written for YA and teens.
As to the narration: YAY! Luke Daniels! He’s simply wonderful. With voices and emotions.

Waste of good premise
The premise was ok in the beginning, but then the story got boring and predictable. A Lot of logic/science/reality errors. Characters were without any depth. I will not continue with this series. The performance was good (as expected from Luke Daniels), but it was not enough to save it.

A book that pulls you in!
I wasn't sure if I was going to enjoy this book after reading the reviews. But decided to go for it anyways. And I am glad I did. I love Luke Daniels and as always his performance was exceptional.
I found myself staying up late just to listen to one more chapter, which then lead to another one. I usually don't write reviews, but felt that I should because if you enjoy science fiction...and aliens, then this is the book for you.
Next in the series here I come 😁

A fun little story
This was a fun story about a boy who meets his future wife, who turns out to be an alien scout for a race of people who want to take over the world. I enjoyed it alot. This book was full of funny ancidotes and even brought me to tears a couple of times. The narrator nails the accents in the book and you have no trouble figuring out who is speaking. All in All a really fun listen.

Excellent first contact !!!
Nathan Hystad have written an excellent first contact book full of unexpected twists and Luke Daniels narration performance have perfected it into a masterpiece of an audiobook.
Absolutely full heartedly recommend this audiobook.

Slow start to the main plot...
Although I listened to this entire book from start to finish, (it took me 3 days to get through) and it was enjoyable enough to listen too, I didn’t really feel any connection to the lead character, Dean.
In fact, I felt more interested in the story arc of two side characters (who turned up much, much later in the plot).
Honestly, the story started slow (way too slow) for the longest while. Yet the overall plot has just enough interesting side-plots/twists to keep you interest for a while.

It was OKAY
Excellent premise but I felt it was poorly executed. Didn't prompt me into buying the second book in the series - at times it felt like a chore. Started to slow down significantly as the story went on, and became somewhat predictable.
Narrator's performance was on point but the book didn't give him any justice.
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

From my perspective, a terribly written novel!
Absolutely poor. I stuck with it till the end but the story just got worse.
