About this listen
The last fragments of the human race are forced to adapt to a dangerous new world or face extinction.
When starship mechanic, Denton Castus, is caught in the destructive path of a devastating war, he abandons his home and seeks refuge on a distant planet. However, this new safe haven has undiscovered threats of its own. Eliana Veston, a scout preparing the planet for the refugees, struggles with a deadly pandemic that is killing off colonists. The hunt for a cure unleashes a new threat to humanity - the Sirens - mysterious beings with incredible powers and a deep hatred for invaders.

A Thrilling and Engaging Sci-Fi
4.5/5 Stars rounded to 5 Stars
In The Orbit of Sirens is a thrilling Sci-Fi that pulls you into a struggle for humanity’s survival. The perfect mix of imaginative worldbuilding, captivating storytelling, along with spine chilling moments that kept me on the edge of my seat!
A SPSFC finalist, space opera, and a bit of horror too. It all comes together beautifully in an accessible writing style.
This is book 1 in the Songs of Kamaria trilogy and what a way to start the series! There is so much in this book, from a variety of unique species, robots, mystery, action, first contact, exploration, memorable characters, and self-discovery.
We see a range of different characters, both human and non-human through the story. Though two characters stand out throughout, Denton and Eliana. My personal favourite character by the end was Talulo, a young auk’nai. Among the rest of the cast, many were memorable, felt well developed and we even see a mix of rivalry and found family.
With the story being told over the course of 300 years, we see jumps between times and perspectives. This allows the reader an in-depth look of the various scenarios and a better idea of the characters stories with natural progression.
Not only does T. A. Bruno capture the imagination, but he also manages to build scenarios that keep you at the edge of your seat. I found myself curious one moment, creeped out the next and lost in action after that. The pacing was medium to fast depending, but it all flowed well with the story.
There was one area that slowed down in pacing, had a different tone and was a bit trope heavy (for my liking) within that scene but overall, it does work with the story and expanded on the characters.
I listened to the audiobook along with the ebook and Michael Reimer did a great job at capturing different characters and bringing across that creepy vibe.
Overall, a fantastic high-stakes sci-fi, in an amazing world that I’d recommend to any sci-fi fan out there.
