For years, Filio Amorosa has had one goal, and only one goal: getting back to Mars.

All that matters is finding out what happened on her mission there, and why she can’t remember any of it. But when she finally discovers the truth, it blows her whole world apart.

Meanwhile, on Earth, Agatha Devenworth and Pano Hofer have a new mission: Travel from the Human Foundation’s secret underground base to New York to uncover what the enemy is plotting. Can they find a way forward for humanity in the midst of this clash of otherworldly forces?

I listen to lots of sci-fi. It's my favourite. Naturally, as with any interest in life, it gets boring as you wade through books from authors all trying to be different yet annoyingly ending up with the same basic stories only with different character names and different locations. This author, however has a wildly deep level of human understanding which is then applied to the craft of writing, expressed as sci-fi. This episode in the 3 episode series is damn good. The epilogue where Hortat speaks is such wonderful writing, it really just makes me love what this author has tried to convey and stands as a tall poppy in a sea of short flowers vying for your sci-fi reader attention. I loved this.

Sci-Fi writing at it's best

A great second installment one where we get to understand the Builders better as well as a twist one doesn’t usually see in an Action Fiction story.

A surprising story

It was a good, well-thought-out story. I didn’t like the use of “President Harris” and “USS Barrack Obama” as there was no need to include leftist political overtones in this story.

Good overall

Vol 1&2 could have been condensed. Won’t read 3. Near end became simply a platform for the author on climate change, politics, etc. especially the epilogue. While hope of new tech might unite the world, humans remained manipulative and driven by power.

Too long

I thought was good. Kept me waiting to listen. I thought that it was well done.

It moved along well
