About this listen
In the stillness of space, several asteroids disappear in the 82 G. Eridani System. Time passes and space wavers, and the missing asteroids reappear. They’re traveling at near-light-speed for the single populated planet. Nuclear-tipped missiles from the lone battleship fail to stop the asteroids, which crash against the planet, turning it into rubble and killing the 650 million inhabitants.
Someone has found and now tested the perfect planet killer, an ancient device that turns asteroids and icy planetesimals into world-destroying projectiles. Earth is a mere 20 light-years away. But who’s to say the hidden weapon will head there next? It can go anywhere in the commonwealth and destroy any world.
Star Watch is desperate, employing every ship, every scientist, and everyone, including the crew of Victory, to defend the planets.
Captain Maddox, Professor Ludendorff, and others must put aside every difference and concentrate on finding a weakness in the ultimate weapon, one they can exploit. Otherwise - the alternative is too stark to contemplate. It is time to pull together and think and fight like never before.
The Lost Tech is the 13th book in the Lost Starship series.

A Journey through Familiar Galaxies: Balancing Rep
As I delve into "The Lost Tech," the thirteenth installment of the Lost Starship series, I find myself traversing the galaxies of both the known and the uncharted. This ongoing cosmic journey has taken me through a range of emotions, weaving together elements of anticipation and recognition. It's a moment for introspection, pondering the delicate equilibrium between the familiarity of recurring themes and the allure of narrative innovation.
In "The Lost Tech," we are thrust into a universe where asteroids vanish and reappear, leaving destruction in their wake. The concept resonates with a mix of anticipation and déjà vu, as we've encountered similar high-stakes scenarios throughout the series. The narrative retains an undertone of skepticism towards recurring themes, particularly the concept of mind control, which has been interwoven throughout the story. This prompts a question that lingers: When does a narrative need to veer away from the well-trodden path and explore new horizons to prevent monotony from setting in?
The storytelling's familiarity is complemented by the vividness of the writing. In a tale where asteroid-laden galaxies become the backdrop, the prose paints a picture that keeps me engaged. The exploration of well-trodden themes is a reminder that, even in the heart of the familiar, there can be depth waiting to be uncovered.
The narrative's progression brings forth a different perspective, where the gradual evolution of the series across its installments offers a sense of satisfaction. It's a testament to the diversity of reader experiences, showcasing how familiarity can also be comforting, like revisiting old friends or rekindling the charm of a well-loved tune.
Yet, another layer emerges in a distinct critique – the challenge of sustaining character development within a sprawling series. Amidst the grand tapestry of plot, characters sometimes find themselves eclipsed. This critique resonates with the idea that authentic character dynamics and growth are crucial for a narrative's vibrancy.
In closing, "The Lost Tech" embodies the delicate dance between the known and the unexplored, inviting readers to contemplate the trajectory of the narrative. As I continue my voyage through the cosmos with the Lost Starship series, I'm poised for the discoveries that await, hopeful for revelations that will reignite the initial enchantment I experienced with this expansive galactic odyssey.
