About this listen

"A tense, gripping SF house of horrors in space, where not all the monsters are inhuman. I enjoyed this enormously." (Peter McLean, author of Priest of Bones)

For two years in deep space, the freighter Demeter and a small crew have collected botanical life from other planets. It's a lesson in patience and hell. Mechanics Ensign Raina is ready to jump ship, if only because her abusive ex is also aboard, as well as her overbearing boss. It's only after a foreign biological creature sneaks aboard and wreaks havoc on the ship and crew that Raina must find her grit - and maybe create a gadget or two - to survive...that is, if the crew members don't lose their sanity and turn on each other in the process.

Contains mature themes.

This was a great sci-fi horror, with a compelling story expertly narrated.

The details of the heroine’s toxic relationship with her hot-headed ex-boyfriend were particularly scary, more so than the lethal alien she has to deal with. His controlling and abusive behaviour, and the way she keeps having to placate him due to his physical size and strength, made for uncomfortable listening. Necessary though, I think.

At first glance this reminds me of a novelization of a really bad 80s b-movie and at second glance too.
The author uses "swallowing bile" quite a few times in this which coincidentally I had to do on more than one occasion while listening to some of the dialogue.
In case I'm being too subtle, this is bad... very bad and if you use a credit for it then let me know and I'll try to sell you a really nice bridge.

A sci-fi book for those who don't read sci-fi written by someone who really shouldn't write sci-fi.
