Summary

The first installment in the thrilling, action-packed Chaos Chronicles.

When John Bandicut sets out across the surface of Triton, he's hardly ready for the storm of chaos that's about to blow through his life. The alien Quarx that soon inhabits his mind is humanity's first contact with an alien life. The Quarx, part of an ancient galactic civilization that manipulates chaos theory to predict catastrophic events, seeks to prevent a cometary collision that could destroy the Earth. But it must have help.

If Bandicut chooses to trust the Quarx, he must break all the rules - indeed, sacrifice his life as he knows it - to prevent humanity's greatest cataclysm. Leaving friends and a lover behind, hurtling across the solar system in a stolen spaceship, Bandicut can only pray that his actions will save the Earth - even if he doesn't live to see it again.

Started well. Then got very very very slow. Then ended disappointingly

A good concept. But this writer doesn’t seem to know how to move a story line along in a way that isn’t drawn out and boring.
I endured the book only to find at the end a “to be continued “. Unbelievable! I definitely won’t bother reading another one of this authors books.

too much of a struggle

I might be jaded and bitter..but theres too much " you can't just " and " this isn't right " in this story.
I'm loathing the protagonist. A painful dousche throughout.

So much so I'm giving back a book that was given to me for free.

sorry Jeffrey
Realistically anxious disbelief and manipulation aren't big emotional hits when one is looking for escapism.

Not quite the roller coaster

The story has a very linear approach with a bit too much focus on the protagonist. Not enough character development for the other people in the story. The romance seemed a bit rushed and shallow.

But overall the story is somewhat unique and the hero is absolutely believable as he's just an ordinary guy with justifiable fears and realistic flaws.
