Publisher's Summary

Late in the 21st century, Earth receives what looks like an urgent plea for help from planet Proxima Centauri b in the closest star system to the Sun.

Astrophysicists suspect a massive solar flare is about to destroy this heretofore-unknown civilization. Earth's space programs are unequipped to help, but an unscrupulous Russian billionaire launches a secret and highly-specialized spaceship to Proxima b, over four light-years away.

The unusual crew faces a Herculean task - should they survive the journey. No one knows what to expect from this alien planet.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Delightfully intriguing premise

The world of Proxima rising is both vast and tiny in scale. The author does a great job of bringing the humanity of an inherently bleak and lonely situation to the fore, all contained within a riveting story showing the tenacity and exponential growth of life.

Interesting concept but poor execution

Narrator does a good job however the story is very slow and boring. To much time is wasted on unimportant details that do not move the plot forward.
Not worth paying for. Not even worth it for free.
