About this listen

Maggie Barnes is at the end of her rope. She’s young and broke living in New York, and her newspaper job has been taken by robots. When she’s offered a job aboard the first civilian space colony, Maggie thinks it’s her lucky break.

For Jonah Wyatt, the Space Force is his last shot at a military career. After years of tracking down the members of a deadly cyberterrorism ring, he was discharged from the army and stuck working one menial job after another. Now this disgraced combat specialist is headed to space.

At first glance, Elderon seems to be a futuristic utopia: Bots do the laundry, meat comes from a lab, and the latest technology expands the scope of human capability. But as Maggie digs deeper, she realizes that Elderon is not at all what it seems. When she receives a tip from an unknown source, she’ll go undercover to learn the truth and place herself in the crosshairs of an all-out war.

Entertaining and plausible

An entertaining sci-fi story. Maggie a struggling reporter get a huge break when she is offered a position on colony one mans first space habitat. Something seems odd and her investigative heart drags her into a risky undercover assignment. This is a well written scarily plausible story with great believable characters. Starts slowly and then ends with a bang, leaving a cliffhanger. Jacqueline DeGraff does an excellent job with the narration. I received a complimentary copy of the audio and am leaving a honest voluntary review

A great start.

I was given a free copy of this book and I'm leaving an honest and voluntary.
I was instantly drawn in by this thrilling book. The story is well though out and delivered perfectly. The characters are great and easily likeable. the progression of the characters only makes them more believable. The deeper the story took me the more immersed I felt.
The narration is flawless and brings this story to life, making the the whole experience all the more enjoyable.
I'd definitely recommend this book to anyone.

Sci-fi, robots, hacking and a space colony!

I'm a sucker for sci-fi and the blurb of this book picked my interesting.

I must say I thought about DNFing about half way through. The pace is painfully slow. Ao much so that the blurb basically tell you the whole story, it took about 40% until something other than what's in the blurb, to happened. And even so, it's not very important to the story, although it was fun.

But I'm happy I continue because the story pickup the pace after 60% and became very interesting, as well as the characters. I'm curious about what's gonna happen next!

The narrator is new to me and I really enjoyed her work. She has a good pace, a nice voice and the characters are distinguishable.

Quite enjoyable

This was quite enjoyable to listen too, it takes a while to get going but once it does it flows at a decent pace, I did think not too much happened until the last few chapters but then thinking that it’s a series then it’s understandable why and how long it takes for character building. The narration was quite good too.

If you enjoy your space dramas I’d highly recommend this audiobook

I was given this audiobook free for a fair review !
