About this listen

The witnesses are legion, scattered across the world and dotted through history, people who looked up and saw something impossible lighting up the night sky. What those objects were, where they came from, and who - or what - might be inside them is the subject of fierce debate and equally fierce mockery, so that most who glimpsed them came to wish they hadn't.

Most, but not everyone.

Among those who know what they've seen and are forever changed by it are a pilot, an heiress, a journalist, and a prisoner of war. From the waning days of the 20th century's final great war to the fraught fields of Afghanistan to the otherworldly secrets hidden amid Nevada's dusty neverlands - the truth that is out there will propel each of them into a labyrinth of otherworldly technology and the competing aims of those who might seek to prevent - or harness - these beings of unfathomable power. Because, as it turns out, we are not the only ones who can invent and build and destroy.

Featuring actual events and other truths drawn from sources within the military and intelligence community, Tom DeLonge and A. J. Hartley offer a tale at once terrifying, fantastical, and perhaps all too real.

What the critics say

"Twisted. Explosive. The best thriller of the year!" (Faith Hunter, New York Times best-selling author)

Loved it. Skeptical at first but it quickly drew me in. The characters are realistic and well-developed. DeLonge and Hartley take what most would scoff at as crazy UFO bullshit and present it as something not only serious and believable, but as a logical and rational conclusion. I look forward to experiencing more of this multifaceted project.

Captivating story. Great performance.

Taking known real life events and then having a narrative with interesting characters intertwined. I enjoyed it and will check out the next book. Mr. DeLonge let's get cracking on releasing some more big news.

A recommended SiFi novel. I esecially enjoyed the author's ability to "think outside the box" of war-in-space novels.
Yes, some audio glitches that should be fixed.

Interesting

Narrator was whistling his "s" loudly for certain parts of the story, making it a little annoying at times. I'd lower the volume but couldn't hear the rest well enough. Story gets interesting quickly, looking forward to getting to the other books of the series.

Good book, some audio annoyances

New All time favourite

Others have said it and I'll confirm. Narration is good, or even great, but there are some pops on the s's. You will most likely have to listen to the books volume a little lower then normal.

The story is a little cliche and leaves you hanging on what the pilot ends up seeing in the end. I also find it somewhat frustrating when a book keeps ending chapters right at the good part.

That being said, the book was entertaining, so mission accomplished! I didn't put it down and finished it very quickly.

cool story, good narration

if you're interested in learning about what's going on in the world and figuring out some stuff for yourself it's a good place to start.

unfortunately the narrator whistles his S's and while this is tolerable man does it get annoying at times.

loved it.
