Three 20-somethings are all that stands between an otherworldly threat and the survival of Earth in the latest thrill ride by Dennis E. Taylor, author of the Audible and New York Times best-selling Bobiverse series.

Jack Kernigan is having a bad day...a bad year...a bad life. After being booted out of MIT, he’s back in his Ohio hometown, working for the family business, facing a life of mediocrity. Then one day, out on a delivery, his truck hits...something. Something big...something furry...something invisible. And, it turns out, something not of this Earth.

Fate can play funny tricks. Which is why Jack suddenly finds himself the planet’s best hope to unravel a conspiracy of galactic proportions that could spell the end of the human race. All Jack and his best friends, Natalie and Patrick, have to defeat an alien threat is their wits, a lot of coffee, and a rather snippy AI named Sheldon. Plus, their own spaceship.

After all, if you’re going to rescue the world, the least you can get out of it is your own spaceship.

An enjoyable story which as an avid fan of both DET’s Bobiverse and CA’s ExForce series felt very familiar, especially being read by Ray Porter!

It certainly lacked some of the depth of the Bobiverse series and felt a little rushed to a conclusion. Without spoiling anything I would like to here a follow up focusing on the open threads (revenge, Pete & suitcase).

Worth the credit!

The love child of Denis E Taylor and Craig Alanson

Another easy and fun listen, story jumps straight into action and builds the characters well. Love the banter between characters.

Ray Porter and Dennis E Taylor are perfect match for audiobooks. Loved Bobiverse and now going through Taylor’s other material and have not been disappointed.

Fun as usual.

A fun trio, two alien species in earth, and a sassy sentient AI. What more could you want?
If you know Taylor you know what you're getting into, and this doesn't disappoint; if you don't then this is a perfect toe in without committing to the big series.

Amazing fun and a great story.

Ray Porter once again delivers Dennis E Taylor story perfectly. No failure in the storyline, pace and humour as you can expect from the author of the bobiverse. Only sorry that I waited so long before getting into this book

excellent
