À propos de cet audio

When out-of-shape IT technician Roen wakes up and starts hearing voices in his head, he naturally assumes he’s losing it.

He isn’t.

As of last night, he has a passenger in his brain - an ancient alien life-form called Tao, whose race crash-landed on Earth before the first fish crawled out of the oceans. Over the millennia his people have trained human heroes to be great leaders, to advance our species at a rate far beyond what it would have achieved on its own. Split into two opposing factions - the peace-loving, but under-represented Prophus, and the savage, powerful Genjix - the aliens have been in a state of civil war for centuries. Both sides are searching for a way off-planet… and the Genjix will sacrifice the entire human race, if that’s what it takes.

So now Roen must train to be a hero worthy of his unwanted companion. Like that’s going to end up well.…

An unlikely hero gets invaded by an ancient alien that is millions of years old and finds out that mankind has been manipulated by them for all of history and gets involved in a war he didn't even know was happening. of course there is the requisite love interest. this is quite an entertaining book, particularly at the beginning when Roan is still trying to lead a normal life. it kind of runs out of steam near the end when it starts to get all action hero and the ending is quite predictable. Still it is worth a listen. I particularly like the past reminiscences of previous hosts at the beginning of each chapter.

An interesting concept, predictable ending
