Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 9,122
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide.

Ashley Perrin is fresh out of college and starting a job as a community liaison for the Third District–the city’s only sector with more alien residents than humans. Ashley’s barely found where the paper clips are kept when she’s beset with constituent complaints–from too much noise at the Annual Lupidian Celebration Parade to a trip-and-fall chicken to a very particular type of alien hornet that threatens the very city itself. And if that’s not terrifying enough, Ashley is next up at the office karaoke night.

Awesome story, easy listening
This was a great listen. I enjoyed the reader and the story was excellent. It moved at a good pace and left me with questions that I will look forward to getting answers to in the next book. It definitely brought humanity into question. Definitely worth the listen 👌.

There are many interesting elements and ideas
The Earth is just one planet in the millions that occupy the galaxy. It is special in that it supports life, not just Terran life, but other forms as well, even alien ones. Unknown to Earthlings, the protection of the planet and its life-sustaining capacity are far more important than the humans who would call it their own.
The story switches back and forth between first contact in 1947 and the alien return in 2020. We learn slowly the purpose and possible fate of humanity as the story unfolds. The earlier time is when the military is trying to make sense of a captured spacecraft and the one alien survivor. The later is about the mysterious disappearance of two teens, literally vanishing into a cloud of smoke. The mystery deepens as strange crystalline tree-like structures appear all over the world. Their purpose is unknown. Some claim it is the beginning of the Rapture, others a war on humanity and still others, just an unknown natural phenomenon.
There are so many new and interesting ideas and reasons to like the story, unfortunately, the action is slowed with lengthy descriptions of unimportant minutia. The story is seemingly just getting warmed up when it abruptly ends in preparation for its sequel.
The audio is performed by Nik Magill who does a generally good job. He has a pleasant voice and is easy to listen too. The characters are clearly defined. It is subtle, but there is a kind of jaunty tone to his voice lightening the story. It may or may not be appropriate to the story, there is not enough of the plot to know how things turn out to say for sure.
This is clearly book one in a series. It does say part one of two after-all. It is under four hours long, so this seems unnecessary to split it into two parts, but that is what the author decided. It is somewhat unfair to judge only half the story, but that is what is currently available. In which case, it is difficult to recommend at this point.
There are many interesting elements and ideas. Perhaps it is better suited as a young adult novel as the main characters are teens and their inept parents.

realistic ending
Most stories end with humans prevailing. This book does not pander to our wishes. Instead it is more than likely how an encounter with advance aliens who wanted to eliminate us would end.

No contractions!!
I just started this book, and the authors lack of utilizing contractions in the dialog is driving me nuts. No one speaks that way ALL of the time! I'll try to listen a while longer, and see if I can't get past it.
