Publisher's summary

The clock is ticking in the struggle for galactic independence

Once rebels themselves facing off against the Earth Confederation, the United States of North America is now the dominant force in negotiations with the interstellar Sh'daar Collective. But just as the marines root out the last violent dissenters, an alien ship of unknown origin suddenly flees Earth's orbit. Is it mere coincidence... or a terrifying omen?

President Alexander Koenig watches with great interest as USNA forces chase the runaways down. But upon first contact, it's not apparent where - or when - the crew is headed. For this bizarre species has somehow mastered the power to manipulate time itself. Now Koenig must decide whether he's dealing with angels of astonishing technological prowess... or the agents of humanity's destruction.

No more repeats!

He finally quit repeating the same info over and over again, not a single reference to how Sandy got his name!

A engrossing listen!

This may very well be his best to date. Once I started this I could not stop. Be warned, that may very well happen to you,

Sci-fi and real science

I just love how the author integrates real science within the context of sci-fi. Not only is it entertaining but also informative and educational. Just the way I like.

Good story, poor reader

Would you consider the audio edition of Deep Time to be better than the print version?

No

What was one of the most memorable moments of Deep Time?

When people in-story start noticing the pervasive decision making of AIs.

Would you be willing to try another one of Nick Sullivan’s performances?

I would not avoid a book due to being read by Nick, but given an option between Nick and another reader I would probably take the other.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No

Any additional comments?

The reading was very odd. Spoken dialogue was almost monotonous, but descriptive prose was read in an overly-emotive tone (almost like those boring movies in school).

Good ending, but the beginning was slow.

Where does Deep Time rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Ian Douglas is my favorite sci-fi author. I think this would have been a better story with less time on Earth in the beginning. I hope there is a book 6!
