Publisher's Summary
After 25 years serving as the human Monitor of the Interstellar Ark, Hermes, Orion is scheduled to be placed back into hibernation with the other crewmembers.
Knowing he'll die there and be replaced before the ship's voyage is over, he decides that he won’t — can’t — accept that fate.
Whatever it takes, Orion will escape Hermes and see what's beyond, even if it means defying the regulations of his only friend — the ship-wide artificial intelligence known as Dan.
From the Washington Post and number one Audible best-selling duo, Rhett C. Bruno and Jaime Castle, comes a harrowing science fiction short story that will leave you questioning exactly what it means to be alive.

Ray is the man
My only regret is that it wasn’t longer.
I’d have liked to have gotten to know Orion better.

Great short story from the Children of Titan series!
Ray Porter delivers an excellent performance of this short story. A nice part of the Children of Titan series, although it can be enjoyed as a standalone audiobook. Highly recommended!!
