The Caldwells have one goal in life: to be left alone. They’ve been living on the backwater planet of C’dar for years, smuggling and scavenging their way to a comfortable life on their homestead. But you know the saying about all good things - they come to an end.

The civilization wasn’t content with falling apart the first time and has finally caught wind of the ol’ boys and girls on their little rock in the middle of nowhere. Ain’t nothing much they can do about that, though...except fight ’em.

It all comes down to three generations of Caldwells - Luke “Drifter” Caldwell, Woodrow “Appetite” Caldwell, and Cassie “Kindle” Caldwell - as they fend for everything they call home.

What is isolation worth?

This was a very entertaining and interesting audiobook that I listened to on my 12 hour car ride and it was great. If you are bored on a long car ride this is a great book for you.

Very interesting

So the narrator threw me off initially because to be honest it is not what i was expecting. That being said the narrator was perfect for the storyline.

The storyline. somehow it drags you in and forces you to really love this hillbilly mutant family and their interfacing and outsider struggles.

This storyline puts you in a place where you have to want the next book because you become invested.

if you're looking for something different with depth. but still fun...this is your next listen/read.

I loved this book and the narration is excellent. Folks who like the family aspects and/or audiobook narrator of Kings of the Wyld or the dramatic tone and wild-west-esque atmosphere and landscape of the show __Justified__ (but with mutants, bionic humans and space guns) will enjoy this one.

Both the author and narrator are new to me. The story is an action packed space western centered on the Caldwell family who have made a home on a new planet. They survive by whatever means necessary and mostly keep to themselves, that is until some higher ranking Bluecoats come to the planet with a specific goal in mind.
Both characters and scenes are well written and draw you in to the Caldwell family's predicament.

The narrator is a perfect fit in my mind. He narrates this book and the characters with a deep growly backwoods southern drawl (fellow southerner myself) bringing a spot on voice to the description of patriarch Drifter Caldwell.

Such a cool and solid story! The premise and setting were unique and the writing was solid and polished. The various characters felt rich and the history and the origins were well done. I really enjoyed the combination of the scrapyard-backwater family of the Caldwells set in a futuristic dystopia fighting the cutting-edge androids. The Caldwells are like the Bad News Bears version of the xMen up against the ‘Bluecoat’ Terminators.

The story takes the action of Shapeshifters, berserkers, soothsayers amidst the swamplands and hills of the Dusk Mountains to a very well executed ‘grand battle’ from multiple POVs and unique characters. The seemingly invincible villain leaves the question of how they’re going to defeat it up in the air.

A solidly constructed multi POV tale of unique characters and the importance of family as well as the sacrifices of progress.

Great new voice in Sci-Fantasy
