About this listen
When the starship Defiant is attacked by a Draxx warship, Jessica King finds herself fast-tracked to the position of Captain out of necessity and duty.
Facing a crisis unlike any she has experienced before, King must prove she has what it takes and lead her crew to safety. But the Draxx are an unrelenting enemy. It will take everything she has to stay one step ahead—and the fight for survival will take the crew of the Defiant further from home than they could have ever imagined . . .
Follow the adventures of Captain Jessica King and the crew of the Defiant as they find themselves pulled into a black hole and thrown from everything they have ever known. If you liked Battlestar Galactica, Star Trek and Star Wars then you will love Far From Home, an epic adventure unlike anything you've ever read!

They find the pilot dead, but the sentient ship AI is very much alive—and she needs their help. The friends decide to embark on an adventure into the unknown.

Book 4 of The Galactican Series takes place in 2151 in which Roy Stone is charged with the security of 3000 galacticans and 300 space-adapted humans aboard SIS Jonathan Lunine en route to Saturn's moon Enceladus. The ship, 7.5 km loa, is powered by fore and aft mounted Deuterium-3Helium fusion drives enabling her to reach Saturn from CisLuna--a distance of 8.5 AUs--in a mere 279 days using a hyperbolic trajectory. Legacy chemical rockets like Titan IVB/Centaur rocket that carried Cassini-Huygens back in 2004 required nearly seven years with numerous gravity-assisted flybys along the way. ...

Hella is a planet where everything is oversized. The trees are mile-high, the dinosaur herds are huge, and the weather is extreme - so extreme, the colonists have to migrate twice a year to escape the blistering heat of summer and the atmosphere-freezing cold of winter. Kyle is a neuro-atypical young man, emotionally challenged, but with an implant that gives him real-time access to the colony's computer network. When an overburdened starship arrives, he becomes the link between the established colonists and the refugees from a ravaged Earth.

Story4 out of 5 stars 40
A planet in the endless emptiness of space, far from the warmth of any sun. And yet there are people who populate its vast caverns, living, working and loving. Since time immemorial, they have been on course for Andromeda, the neighboring galaxy of the Milky Way. This is the prophecy of the ancients, the one goal that unites them all, their cult. But then the unthinkable happens: the journey stops because the planet enters the orbit of a mysterious object that can't be seen in any telescope.

A company of Army Rangers is sent on an interstellar colony ship to secure a foothold on a dangerous, alien planet through violence of action. Leaving behind a warring Earth flung headfirst into a conflict of mutual assured destruction, the Rangers and the accompanying crew of first colonists are guided on a 40-year journey by an unprecedented artificial intelligence. But when they emerge from the frigid embrace of cryosleep, they awake to a nightmare, finding themselves greeted by the same ruthless enemy that brought about the ruin of Earth.
