À propos de cet audio

An epic first-contact story on a galactic scale.

Humans have reached the stars. There is no evidence any other species survived its own sentience long enough to do the same. Until now, when the Magellanix deep-space scout Accipiter discovers the Artifact, a million-year-old alien construct resting in a dormant volcano on a faraway world.

Now, TransGalactic has sent the Carpathia to steal it. Two ships, two rival corporations, and a race only one of them can win.

The stakes are greater than they seem. The Artifact is more than just a technological marvel. It holds the key to humanity's survival, and—perhaps—an understanding of our place in the universe at last.

Absolutely incredible, one is the most fascinating and interesting books I've read in a long time. The entire book is without unnecessary and childish theme of violence and petty conflict that must authors spend far too many pages on. I'm addition the writing is superb, a master of the English language at work here.

This book is truly a breath of fresh air and i hope hope hope this author is furiously typing up his next opus so we don't have to wait too long for more of his brilliant prose

A perfect score for the perfect narration of a perfect book

This is hard sci-fi, with classic space travel, genetic supermen, aliens (we never meet!), evil corporations, and engaging characters.

But there are too many loose ends to this story because of narrative structure and character development. I wanted to know what happened to each of them after the book ends.

But there is no sequel.

The starship sank. Get over it.

I waited for 19h for something that never came. The story in itself isn't bad, but the whole premise that they find an alien artifact that will change everything never really happens. The voice actor did a good job, but the story is 3/5. It was getting good near the end but then stopped abruptly.

It's alright
