Summary

They are coming. The countdown has begun.

First visible only as blips on a telescope image, the discovery of objects approaching from Jupiter's orbit immediately sets humanity on edge. NASA doesn't even bother to deny the alien ships' existence. The popular Astral space app (broadcasting from the far side of the moon and accessible by anyone with Internet) has already shown the populace what is coming. So the news has turned from evasion to triage, urging calm and offering the few facts they have:

The objects are enormous, perfectly round spheres numbering in the dozens, maybe hundreds. They are on an approach vector for Earth. And they will arrive in six days.

A bit formulaic, but the story moves along well. Good enough to make me want to read book 2.

Great story.

Very much enjoyed this book. It's my first time listening to this genre. I own over 100 Audible books and this title made it into my top 10. Im looking forward to book 2. Well written, kept me engaged, and the narrator was amazing!

I"m hooked

The story line showed great promise and held my interest, despite the poor character development. The portrayal of female characters seemed somewhat unrealistic to me. It appears that more diversity and perspectives in the creation and execution of the book would have been beneficial. I was initially open to giving the second book a chance, but I became concerned upon hearing a racial comment in the preview, which seemed unsettling and stereotypical about black men and tattoos. It would be really valuable to include an editor from a different background in future books to offer fresh insights. Books like this have a large and diverse audience base, consider that when making a book to attain more of a following. It would enrich your books and draw a larger audience.

Slightly disappointing

This book kept me on the edge of my seat throughout. Great storyline, great narration. The characters all have their own personalities, some are a little irritating, but they add to the story. I really enjoyed this book! I stayed up all night to finish it, I just couldn't put it down. I love Ray Porter as a narrator, he keeps me listening every time. I have chosen books specifically because he is the narrator, and he never disappoints.

Lots of suspense, excellent plot

Why does the narrator not only sound like Peter Griffin from Family Guy but also narrates all the women talking in a whiny voice???? I'd love to know where this story goes in the other books but I can not STAND the narration and disrespectful tone he portrays for the women. Was it the author portraying them like that or the narrator? Either way, if you are a woman or actually respect women, this may annoy you as well.

Good concept but too misogynistic
