About this listen

Mankind's first alien contact tears into Earth: Projectiles launched from Jupiter's moon, Ganymede, vaporize whole cities. Under siege, humanity gambles on one desperate counterstrike. In a spacecraft scavenged from scraps and armed with Vietnam-era weapons, foot soldiers like 18-year-old Jason Wander-orphans that no one will miss-must dare man's first interplanetary voyage and invade Ganymede.

They have one chance to attack, one ship to attack with. Their failure is our extinction.

good read, little lacking on substance but worth the read all the same. I,'ll pick up the next in series to see how it pans out.

good read,

The story might be great but I can't get into it because of the terrible performance. The guy reads like he very rarely reads anything, with practically the same irritating intonation in every sentence- giving no sense of the tone the book was meant to be read in. Do better, Audible.

Sorry but I couldn't finish it. (performance 👎)
