Controversial

I really liked this story, my imagination enjoys this kind of writing. If something like this ever did happen, you better believe there would be a lot of people trying to cover it up.

a bit slow to start. but great characters.

Great story but a little disappointed with the cliches.

Reader was a little too dramatic a times, felt cheese and unbelievable. Story was strong, but got a little too cliche with the tall religious fanatics…would have liked something more rational…no meed to go so extreme to have a believable enemy.

Really fun book!

I’m am invested! I really want to know what happens and I am excited for the next in the series. The narrator does an amazing job! His pacing is perfect and he conveys a lot of emotion in moments of intensity. My only complaint is the gawdawful long pauses between chapters. I don’t know how many times I checked my phone to see if it was still playing only to find going.

The story is a bit slow to begin with and there are a few errant threads that don’t seem to get tied into the main story, and I would love to know a bit more about the background of the antagonist. He’s scary to be sure, but really his backstory is still pretty shrouded. Once the book hits it’s peak though, it’s hard to stop. Nice job and looking forward to the next one!

Very suspenseful and timely story.

I really enjoyed the characters and storyline. I feel that climate change and what is happening to our planet is something we should all be concerned about and although the story is fictional the things that are happening to our planet are not. The story kept me very engaged and left me wanting more and being a bit disappointed when it was over. I am looking forward to book 2. The narration was beyond excellent! Good read!

The investigation inside the space ship.

I love the story, immersive and thrilling. The character of Sam and Julia was very relatable.

A bit preachy

I like the overall topic of the story but the underlying climate change rants and semi Christianity bashing was a little much.

The Sky is Falling!

It’s a good story in-spite of the frequent advertisements for the Global Warming Hoax.
The seas are not rising,
The planet is not warming.
Some glaciers are shrinking, others are growing.
Man has had no effect on climate that is not overwhelmed by each and every volcanic eruption.
No Climate Change Clown has ever been right about anything, ever!

Really looking forward to the next book!

An extremely intriguing and exciting story that makes you think. Can see the movie version. Definitely got hooked and will read the next two. Also thoroughly enjoyed the narrator. A really great performance!
