Publisher's Summary

Twenty-five years ago, the Overseers conquered Earth and enslaved humanity. The time to fight back has come....

Alec works in the Detroit Overseer-factories, building a mysterious alien device. When three strangers appear, he's provided an opportunity to escape after years of servitude.

Cole, a Freeborn loner, encounters Lina after her village is destroyed by the alien Occupation. Together, they make the arduous journey to a fabled safe-zone, trying to stay one step ahead of the enemy drones on their trail.

Dex is a Hunter, working for the Occupation to track down escaped factory slaves, or Roamers, at all costs. But his latest hunt uncovers a massive secret and threatens his loyalty to the Overseers.

All their fates are bound. For the first time in decades, a secret enclave of alien resistance fighters known as the Reclaimers prepare to make their move.

Imaginative and plausible

Amazing story. Can’t wait to read the sequel. They hopefully are just as good. It’s like I’m experiencing being there myself as it is so descriptive.

You’re lucky I stopped to review instead of immediately starting book 2

Understanding this is the beginning of a larger planned series I understand that it had to cut off at the end of a significant story arc, but I suddenly look up after flying through listening to this and I’m hearing the end credits!

I felt confused. Did I accidentally skip chapters? It was over too fast!

Nope. It was 8 hours. I just totally lost track as I was taken deep into it. I quite like this story but I honestly need to start the next one in the series immediately. Luckily I can do that as they are all released.

Not much I can say about Ray Chase that I haven’t already said in other reviews. His reading style somehow makes me feel like a friend is telling me the story while he then disappears as every character becomes defined as unique individuals. That comes with his pairing with writers who know how to write dialogue and natural flowing descriptions of events and scenes along with believable character personalities.

I understand Nathan Hystad co-wrote this with Devon C Ford. I know Devon’s writing and enjoy it greatly but when I’m done this series I’m going to need to check out other Hystad titles.

occupation

I found this book on a recommended reading list. when I checked goodreads, the reviews were an average of 4.5 stars. considering that most reviews there are brutally honest, this book must be an amazing read. it was. I've been listening nonstop since I downloaded it. the characters immediately came to life for me. I dont want to spoil so I'll just say that it is one of the best dystopian books I've read. worth 5 stars.
