The galaxy is mired in a cold war between two superpowers, the Illyrican Empire and the Commonwealth. Thrust between this struggle are Simon Kovalic, the Commonwealth's preeminent spy, and Kyle Rankin, a lowly soldier happily scrubbing toilets on Sabaea, a remote and isolated planet. However, Kyle Rankin is a lie. His real name is Eli Brody, and he fled his home world of Caledonia years ago. Simon Kovalic knows Caledonia is a lit fuse hurtling towards detonation.

I Liked It
Revisado: 02-07-20
I liked the book. 4 star review because its not the best I've ever heard, but I found it entertaining and well worth the credit.
Not sure where the poor review of the narrator is coming form. A couple of the accents were boarder line, but he was easy enough to listen to. I had no problem with him.

When Earth intercepts a message from a long-extinct alien race, it seems like the solution humanity has been waiting for. The Undying's advanced technology has the potential to undo environmental damage and turn lives around, and their message leads to the planet Gaia, a treasure trove waiting to be explored. For Jules Addison and his fellow scholars, the discovery of an ancient alien culture offers unprecedented opportunity for study...as long as scavengers like Amelia Radcliffe don't loot everything first.

Any additional comments?
A couple of plot elements didn't seem 100% logical to me, but overall I thought this a good book with a very interesting story that captured my interest. Narration was great. My only complaint was the rather sophomoric romance between the two main characters; I think that element could have been handled/written better. I overlooked this because I really did enjoy the story, but the reason for 4 stars instead of 5. Looking forward to book 2 in the series.
