About this listen

They thought they could force her to conform. They were wrong.

Inside a dystopian school in the Singularity, the 12-year-old girl known as One Twenty-Four struggles to survive. Failure to conform means death at the hands of her teacher. Assuming her clone sisters don't kill her first.

The Terran Empire has tasked Imperial Marine Lieutenant Grace Tolliver to lead her platoon into the Singularity as a privateer. Her mission: to tear a great bloody strip off their enemies and to take anything that isn't nailed down. The collision of this unlikely pair will change the humanity in ways that no one could predict. If they survive.

Author's note: This novel takes place more than five centuries before the Empire of Bones series, and the events unfolding here have implications there.

Unfortunately it's let down a bit by the narrator. For me the reading was rather stiff and there was little to none difference in the voice between the characters, if names weren't used you would have no idea who was speaking so to speak This is really noticeable when12 Yr old 124 is speaking - its really weird having a full grown womans voice coming from someone that Grace and Co have to kneel in order to look into her eyes when talking to her. However the story itself has great potential and I'm pretty invested in Grace and Andrea (124) .I'm not sure if I will get the next two because of the narrator but don't let this put you off trying them.

Very good story

I came across this by chance while looking for the next book in the empire of bones series and it is just a good as that series is and adds to the amazing universe that Terry has put together.
The charters are great and I realy enjoyed getting to know them and the setting is great and with out to much tech talk well worth the time listening to it.

Your can enjoy this book with out having read any of the other empire of bones books
