About this listen

They are coming. The countdown has begun.

First visible only as blips on a telescope image, the discovery of objects approaching from Jupiter's orbit immediately sets humanity on edge. NASA doesn't even bother to deny the alien ships' existence. The popular Astral space app (broadcasting from the far side of the moon and accessible by anyone with Internet) has already shown the populace what is coming. So the news has turned from evasion to triage, urging calm and offering the few facts they have:

The objects are enormous, perfectly round spheres numbering in the dozens, maybe hundreds. They are on an approach vector for Earth. And they will arrive in six days.

Started off good, but I'm struggling with this one.

The narrator is putting me off. His normal male voice sounds like Brian from Family Guy, his female voice for Heather sounds like a female Jack Black.

The way the narration plays out Myers (main male character) is way too serious compared to everyone else who acts likes it's a vacation.

I'll try and get through this one.

But, feel as though I’m being ripped off buying into the long-winded series. First one is free, great, but the other 6 books could have been edited into 3 books, which (imho) is acceptable.
Message to publisher: don’t be greedy.

I enjoyed the book, but

They just really grated on me, not sure if it was the narrator doing the female voice badly or doing a shrill nasal voice perfectly but either way I listened about half way and lost interest.

This is a fantastic novel with great narration. The apocalyptic Alien invasion is a theme that recurs often, but somehow this one has been done better than most. My only criticism is that it was a bit short. That could just be because I'm used to reading epic novels now, but to be fair to the authors, this is a series and I already own the next two books.

Apocalyptic alien invasion of Earth yet again, but this time done much better!

The story of this book is great. Filled with edging story. I'm going to get the next book right now.

Great and gripping story.

If you're going to listen to this book it's best to keep it to this one, it's the most interesting one and the other gets really boring after it and what makes it worse is the narrator changes to a guy that can only do one voice. it's so bad I realised I listened to a whole book and didn't hear a word. This one is good others not so much.

Just this one

A very good story delivered in a magnificent performance. Ray brings all the characters to life and delivers a thumping rendition of the action. Debaters will be looking out his other work.

Ray Porter is amazing,

Picked this up through the Plus catalogue. Looked interesting so decided to try it.

Set a little in the future it comes across well. Its not even really about invasion, its about a journey.
Engaging characters, anyone who has teenagers may well recognise the youngsters.

Unexpected twists and turns, suspense builds, resolves then next problem....

I enjoyed it enough to add the next book in the series to my wish list, eventually to buy and listen.

A surprising find!

I liked this and will certainly get the next book, it's really just the prelude to the actual invasion and how they deal with humanity going crazy!

The realisation they are coming and the escape
