About this listen

The war everyone thought was over is just beginning.

Kira Forrest is a survivor. She's risen above the pain of her beginnings to become a war hero only to leave it all behind in the pursuit of a simple life. Now a salvager, she makes a living sifting through the wreckage of dead alien ships from a war that nearly brought humanity to its knees.

After her ship takes damage, she's forced to re-route to a space station where her past and present collide with dangerous consequences.

Kira's existence holds the key to a faltering peace treaty with the Tuann - a technologically advanced alien race who dislikes and distrusts all humans. Winning her freedom should be easy, but a powerful and relentless Tuann warrior stands in her way. Deceiving him seems impossible, especially when he strays dangerously close to secrets she struggles to hide.

Can Kira reconcile the pain of her past with the possibilities of her future? The fate of two races depends on her success.

Although the main character, Kira, makes some incredulously stupid decisions that seem more.ADD informed than as a responsible captain alone w one nonorganic crew member in the middle of space, something about Kira drew me in. And the book slowly told me why. The author's slow reveal of critical aspects of Kira's history and that of her closest friend, reveals about the new culture in which she is embedded, all well done. The romance isn't pushed, amd is tastefully grown, although I think it is outdated and harmful to refer to women as 'quarry' by the romantic interest in the 21st century.

The world building is really fantastic, with clues laid down that I hope are developed in the later books. The physicality of the world, its creatures, architecture, and more, are carefully wrought and compellingly described. I was there!

Some things are overlooked, e.g. when Kira leaves all her belongings, where does she get clothes and other sundries? How does her friend recharge? surely chargung ports aren't universal across species? Why isn't she given a crash course on her birthright culture? Why doesn't the Overlord demand more investigation into the assassination attempt?

The performance / reading was very good when it cane to the oppositional main character, and her bantering bestie. Not sure why almost all the male characters and a few of the female ones sound like annoyed, heavy smokers. It was often hard to tell who was speaking from the actual voice. For someone like me w brain injuries, that meant I had to scroll back a lot to keep track. Others may not have that difficulty.

An entertaining read / listen all in.

Having listened avidly to this book and been thoughrouly transfixed by the story I cannot wait for the sequel as the writer has left me suspended in air in anticipation of the continuing story line. I do hope that audible produces the next chapter and eagerly wait its publication. I can honestly recommend this book to any avid science fiction fan it is a fascinating listen.

Great book cannot wait for more

I wasn't a huge fan of the narrator, the male lead sounded smoke damaged. But the story itself is so good, I'm gonna get the next one any way!

Awesome hook!
