About this listen

They came to start a new life. Now they have to fight for it.

Joel Lander wants nothing more than a fresh start, far from Earth and wars that have left humanity’s birthplace in shambles. Leaving on the second mission to the distant world of Tranquility, Lander and his family plan to build a brand-new life for themselves.

Boasted to be everything Earth wasn’t - clean, unsullied, safe - Lander learns upon arrival that Tranquility is anything but. New Independence has gone dark, and it soon becomes clear that he will have to fight a terrifying enemy to save their new home, forcing him back into the very life he’d thought he’d left behind on Earth.

Experience the start of an action-packed new military sci-fi epic from best-selling authors Josh Hayes (The Valor trilogy) and Devon C. Ford (After It Happened). Starcraft meets Titanfall in a thrilling battle for survival.

Yeah. A Meh, title.

I listen to a lot of audio books.

This book, its story, its performance. None of it grabbed my attention and drew me into it.

I had to struggle to keep listening, feels like a chore to listen.

Its a bit of a cookie cutter story. The main character is typical (probably the most likeable character) everyone else is pretty much filler. The "Alien Threat" is basically Zombies with a hierarchy.

I am on chapter 30, and have 4 hours left of the book. - It's going to be a slog to finish it - I'm going to, out of pure stubbornness.

The "Rigs" or Mech is kind of cool. There was a mech battle, that so far was the high point. The rest of the book is just people arguing and complaining, freaking out, taking care of team mates who of course got infected with the zombie threat and is turning because of course he did. Then they complain, and complain.

When I finish this book, if anything surprises me - or changes my mind about this book. I will update this review.
