Summary

Created to defeat the invaders. Forgotten in victory. They will rise again …

We were outnumbered, outfought. Mankind was about to fall to the alien Flock. Our only chance was a desperate gamble, transforming Tier One SpecOps agents into deadly super soldiers.

In the end, we won the war, but we lost the peace. The Flock surrendered and spent the next two hundred years making reparations, indentured to humanity, doing everything humans did not want to do. And the evolved super soldiers were consigned to an endless sleep. Ready if ever needed, but in time they became myths. Abandoned and forgotten.

And then, when we were content in our dominance, the Flock revolted against all of humanity across the whole of the galaxy. We fell in a single day.

Which is when the dreams began. People across the settled worlds began dreaming of the Sleepers. The evolved saviors. Acts of rebellion and terrorism swept the galaxy, and in response the Flock ground us under heel.

Lexi Chow, descendant of a hero of the Flock War, believes the Sleepers are real, and are humanity’s only chance against the alien conquerors. With a crew of misfits, criminals, and believers, she sets out to wake the Sleepers. Hoping they will once more save us.

If the betrayed Sleepers are willing. If the Sleepers are even human.

If the Sleepers are on our side at all …

Alpha Wave by New York Times bestselling author Jonathan Maberry and master storyteller Weston Ochse launches a new, sprawling military science fiction adventure that will span the whole of a galaxy at war!

Amazeballs

It's not often you stumble upon a masterpiece that details the cultural "defect" of humanity that is, paradoxically the very strength we rely on in times of hardship. The authors have really integrated the self interest of each character and intertwined the knife-edge balance of saving mankind and that of self sacrifice. Such an amazing book, and will be gnawing at my nail (whatever I am left with after listening to this) waiting for the next edition, kudos, what an amazing book.

Pretty good start

Good story, it will have good legs for a long line of them. I found the first half of trying to understand the timeline confusing but got it eventually. There was also some annoying contradictions dotted around in there but overall it was great.

Performance good, but story lackluster

The story to me is naivistic and long-winded. I think with proper editing (i.e. shortening it to about half its length) could have made it much better, but as it stands, both the story and interaction between characters did not convince me.
