About this listen

Cassia Vici is on a one-way trip to Saturn - to help humanity reach the stars.

A towering genius who'd already solved the problem of death by making memory recording possible, Cassia leads a team of scientists and problem solvers to a station floating in the harsh winds of Saturn. Their mission: to grow interstellar ships using nanobots in the planet's material-rich environment. She called them "monsters" to help sell the project to a skeptical public.

Little did she know how prophetic that name would become.

But an unexpected death seeds doubt among the team, putting the mission in jeopardy. As her team struggles to save the future, Cassia is haunted by her past - a wife and daughter who died in the very technology that made mind recording possible.

With time running out, Cassia and her crew will need one final miracle to build the monsters that could become both their savior - and their doom.

Amazing Sci-Fi

So I was unsure about this book following the previous reviews, however I was so glad that I took no notice of them and decided to listen to this book and make up my own mind. I am so glad doing this as this book is not as long as I normally listen to but has an amazing story and the narrator does a good job........5 out of 5 for both, as like I said the story and narrator are amazing but this is in the Plus Catalogue it has to be a 5:out of 5. This is due to what I mentioned earlier but also if you are a member you get to listen to this book at no extra cost. Thank you Amazon / Audible!

Brilliant! Didn’t know where it would go, to the very end.

I was captivated from the first moment to the last. Vivid images thought provoking questions wrapped up into a short story.

The imagination is a wonderful thing

the word monsters is just dumb in the context and the cure for death is worse. its just a recording that no body would ever turn on.
its not cleverly written and the tech isnt that advanced. but the characters were ok.

great idea poorly executed
