The New York Times and USA Today best-selling series.

Humanity has finally found a new home, but the price is blood....

After a long, perilous journey, Hell Divers Xavier Rodriguez and Magnolia Katib discover the Metal Islands, a sunny, habitable zone where thousands of people live by fishing and farming. But this "paradise" is really a violent warrior society ruled by the cannibal King el Pulpo. For the first time in X's life, he is forced to lay down his arms and surrender.

Back on the airships, the Hell Divers are recovering from a gruesome discovery at Red Sphere, where they learned the truth about World War III. Now, they must fight another war - this time for what remains of their own endangered species. As the battle approaches, alliances will be forged and others broken.

Forced to fight in the Cazador army, X faces his toughest mission yet. Will he help his people come down from the sky and claim the promised land, or will humanity go extinct?

Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time


The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

This series is a literary masterpiece. This is sci-fi at it’s very finest. I discovered this in late May 2019. I’m already waiting on book six. I marathoned this series. Bought credits, lost sleep, became antisocial for about a week...and I’d do it again. Start with book 1...you won’t regret it. Sci-fi fan or not. Take a dive.

And he does! But this is a must read book for fans of this series. I became very invested in the X character and his dog Miles. Wonderful character development.

I was very hesitant to read this book because I didn’t want X to go through more ordeals.

By far one of the best storylines out there. A thrill ride from start to finish.

Thanks for the Ride

Overall the story keeps you hooked from beginning to end! My only complaint is that the story was a bit short- but again it’s worth the read. Hopefully it’s not the end of the hell divers series.

Another great addition to series

I absolutely couldn't stop listening. I felt compelled to listen on and I was drawn into the look from the beginning. Best out of the series so far. This is a excellent book that I can see myself listening to over and over again. If your reading this, you MUST read or listen to this book. You won't be disappointed. But don't start here! Work your way up from the exciting beginning to the emotional ending.

Book Five in the Hell Divers series does not disappoint! Heart pounding action, as a rescue mounts. I screamed in anguish. I cheered triumphantly! Tears rolled down my cheek as I recovered from fear. The characters become real, and have over the entire series. You feel their emotions. You can even feel the tension in Miles, X's dog as he's held in captivity too. But there is hope in this book, of a different future for them all. There are not many books or authors that can keep you turning pages like Nicholas Sansbury Smith. Already pre-ordered book Six!

Another Five Star book in a Five Star Series!
