New Worlds

Rogue Star, Book 2

By: Jasper T. Scott

Narrated by: Flynn Earl Jones

Listen to the exciting conclusion....

A rogue star dragged us away from the sun and unleashed a new ice age; we are cold, hungry, and desperate. Earth is divided: Humanity resides in the frozen wastes, while the invading alien machines, dubbed Screechers, occupy the habitable regions - and they have built a wall to keep us out. This is our new world.

Logan Willis and his family are hiding safely in Haven, an underwater colony designed by billionaire Akron Massey to be his private shelter. But Logan's son, Alex, didn't make it. Logan is desperate to get out and find him, but Haven is in the middle of Screecher territory, and leaving could expose the colony to discovery.

Meanwhile, OneZero, a friendly Screecher locked in Haven's brig, also wants to get out, and so does Akron Massey, who plans to build another rocket from the Mars mission prototype and use it to join his family on the red planet.

Together these three must find a way to leave Haven and accomplish their goals, but the world they left is not the one they are returning to: Secrets and hidden agendas abound as divergent groups vie for power on both sides of the border wall. With humanity’s fate hanging in the balance, Logan is determined to find out the truth before it’s too late.

New world review

This was a wonderful story, full of twists and turns. It kept me enthralled most of the time while listening.

Overall or was a good book

except for the break between book one and two the story was good and Congress too a logical conclusion.

Fascinating to Listen to

Aware the second book had been released, it had me wondering if Flynn was going to narrate that book as well. When I looked up the book series at the beginning of this month, I noticed the audiobook for the second book was already almost out. My heart jumped and a huge smile spread across my face.

After pre-ordering it (almost immediately) I waited patiently for the rest of the book to come out. As soon as it struck midnight on December 10, turning to December 11, I downloaded it and began listening to it. It's only been two days and I'm already on Chapter 27! I cannot stop listening to it.

I admire both Flynn and his father's storytelling skills and I love the way he expresses the character's personalities, especially when he gives them their own voice just by changing his pitch. In book 2, he does an excellent job describing the settings, how certain actions impact the characters, and overall tells a good story. I look forward to more projects!

New Worlds....book 1 and 2....

These two books, a mini series so to speak, kept me guessing until the end. Love a book that keps me on my toes, and this book series sure did that.
Loved it !! :-)

Ok for an alien invasion

There is a plot twist with the alien invasion being partly human beings from our last but not all are. Some are friendly kid are they? You have to read and find out. Pleasant reading..

one of the best sci-fi books I have ever read!!

After reading book 1 in this series, I did not want to take the time to review it because I needed to start book 2! I normally do not care for books involving aliens , spacecrafts and mind-boggling technology. I am so so glad I gave this a try!! It's an amazing read! The narrator also gave a wonderful performance. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Syfy of any kind.

if you like Earth bound sci-fi

I accidentally ordered this thinking it was more of an apocalypse Doomsday. Syfy is not my preferred genre of reading / listening, but was interesting and a relatively good listen.

The only thing I found annoying was the continued reference of an assault rifle when there is no such thing as an assault rifle. They should have referred to them as battle rifles which is more accurate.

okay

l got to the end but just barely. And that is all I have to say

I have never wanted the main character to die so badly!

The concept is awesome and the reader is pretty good but the main character is a buffoon! He never learns from his mistakes and always manages to put behind him only to make a bigger one! I guess the whole point of writing a book about this guy is to show that against all odds... Idiots can survive! That being said I did enjoy the book with frequent stops to talk myself off the ledge.

Not too bad

Great story line but the author was too descriptive and prosey and wordy. However you can fast forward a lot to get at the meat of the story. This review also applies to the first book in the series
