About this listen

The Terran Alliance looks to the horizon as they explore the far reaches of the galaxy!

The Korvil have attacked Earth, setting into motion a full-scale war that humans have little hope of surviving on their own. In the heat of battle, the Shiravans come to their rescue, turning the tide of the enemy invasion. This forms a tentative peace between the two races, but there are many more steps before reaching a full alliance.

The aftermath of the attack on Earth leaves millions dead and mixed emotions between the earthbound nations and the spacefaring Alliance. Tensions rise as governments try to infiltrate the organization in order to gain an upper hand in world politics. However, the Alliance has bigger fish to fry as they learn more about their new enemy - the Korvil. Like something from a science fiction book, the massive, bear-like creatures know nothing of peace or mercy, only of power and war. They will stop at nothing until they are the alpha race of the galaxy no matter who they have to kill - even their own.

As the war continues, Kitty Hawk, Herald of the Terran Alliance, accompanies a few ships to the Shiravan homeworld in hopes of cementing their partnership to defeat this threat. As she reaches the alien world, she realizes there is more than meets the eye with this peaceful race. Will the leader of the Alliance be able to come to terms with the Matriarch, or will humans now face two powerful threats instead of one?

This series of books is definitely building momentum in my view, I can’t wait for the next instalment!

The series is getting better and better

Really enjoyed the first two books, this 3rd one is ok, a little drawn out, there are some rather unbelievable actions from main characters that I found difficult to "believe". Mark Boyett saves the story with his usual excellent performance.

Not as good as the first two books

While I enjoyed the first two books, I had to give up on this one. I stuck it out for as long as I could, and was surprised that I lasted through 2/3rds, but I just couldn't stomach the repetitive nature of the dialog any more. It seems every main character, plus a few thrown in just for the act, had to repeat the same plot explanation over and over again. To existing characters who should have already been aware, to new characters added seemingly to be a set of ears, and to themselves. Again and again. There are a couple of interesting battles that are too short-lived, but other than those there really isn't much of a plot for this book. It reads as though the author had to hit a word-count for this book, and a number of books for the series, and is trying to pad for time/length until something can be resolved in later books. Maybe I'll return for book 4… but if I do I will be sure to stop earlier if the same signals are there.

Half an idea dragged out for a lifetime
