Summary

Earth is not alone. There is a towering civilization out in the galaxy, far greater than anything we can imagine. But we are isolated from the galaxy...until now.

When a bunch of interstellar scavengers approach Earth intending to abduct a few dozen humans and sell them into slavery in the darkest, they make the mistake of picking on Steve Stuart and his friends, ex-military veterans all. Unprepared for humans who can actually fight, unaware of the true capabilities of their stolen starships, the scavengers rapidly lose control of the ship - and their lives.

To Steve the captured starship represents a great opportunity, one to establish a new civilization away from Earth and its increasingly oppressive bureaucracy. But with the aliens plotting their revenge and human factions suspicious of the new technology, it will be far from easy to create a whole new world....

Interesting Twist on Space Travelers

I really struggled with this at the beginning. However, stuck with it and now really enjoyed it. Bit too much libertarianism for five stars, but interesting take on aliens arriving and realistic narration.

Gets better

The story is a little week in places. I think I would have liked a little more technical and a little more drama concerning the people in the story. i did find the story a little weak in places. Things seem to happen too easily. However I still enjoyed this SiFi and want to listen further. it could improve all to easily. The narrator was perfect sdding what life there is to the characters.

Good SiFi

A few massive plot holes gleefully ignored, and you have to like libertarianism Montana-style, but an enjoyable and rather addictive listen based on wish fulfilment if nothing else! Will buy the second instalment, just to see if the main characters grow a little depth now that they are effectively immortal...or are they?

Good fun
