Summary

Contains books one and two of The Forever Series.

Jon Ryan is irreverent, cocky, funny, and walks with a swagger. He says what he means, he says what he wants to, and, in fact, he says what needs to be said.

The cocky fighter pilot turned astronaut is also Earth's only chance for survival. The planet Jupiter, thrown off orbit, will destroy Earth in less than a century. Jon volunteers for the most ambitious, desperate mission ever conceived: His consciousness must be transferred into an experimental android host, where he'll live an immortal—and lonely—life. Jon's only companion on his 50-year voyage is his ship's irritable AI.

After successfully journeying for decades and locating a suitable human resettlement, Jon begins to discover the wonders life can hold, including the power of family and, for once, true peace. But no good deed, or good man, goes unpunished.

The US president wants him dead and is willing to sacrifice his own people to eliminate Jon. An alien species has vowed a holy war to eliminate all humans, either on Earth or wherever they might run. Only Jon can protect humans from their enemies.

With the best planet for colonization ruled by an ancient, malevolent species, there may be no hope for humans in a crowded galaxy. The limits of human technology may not be sufficient. The limits of Jon's endurance may not be enough. His endless enemies may prove to be unstoppable.

Jon may have forever, but does humanity have any future at all?

Ok I would describe the main character as Deadpool in space and complete lovable idiot.
stories interesting but I do feel like there was no plan is just write what ever came to mind by the author.
the audio narration performance was very good. it was one of the main reasons I kept listening to it and the other being hate unfinished story.
the most annoying thing about this book was the logic or the lack of it. No consistency at all frustrating.
Even with all that said its not a bad book.
I would give It 2 and a half stars many be to 3 stars all depending on your mood.

I do not understand this book.

I just feel like a lot was skipped over. The narrator perfect. The characters where likable. The story could of been so much more. Parts could of been expanded and probably this one book could of turned into 3.

Not great but far from bad.

The various storylines and characters that you follow throughout the duration of the book are brilliant. They all come together seamlessly, with you itching to get to the next chapter. As a massive sci-fi fan, ‘The Forever’ is an excellent mix of griping space adventure, comedy and emotion. A very addictive listen and fantastic narration by Scott Aiello. I hope the next series is in the works or coming out very soon!

Absolutely Brilliant Story!

Great fun. Witty, fast-paced and an easy listen, what more could you want? I very much enjoyed listening and have bought the second in the series.

A rollicking inter-galactic romp

Okay okay where to start.. maybe the narrator's effort...
This alone made it worth the listen. Each character is distinctive and unique. His perfect delivery made this a joy to listen to.

The story is well thought out and not what I was quite expecting. Having given the description a very brief scan. I was expecting the semi standard, join the space marines be a hero... run in a battle be a hero type story. This is not that book.
masterfully written whit and banter, allies, new friends, and some well thought of exploring. Throw in some brilliant twists and you have this book.
another series i look forward to finishing.

NOTHING SHORT OF BRILLIANTLY DONE!
