Story
Timothy and Jonah, wealthy entrepreneurs with a spoiled son, hide sins from their past—one involving a death on a cruise, the other a crime in Bali. Nathan and Samantha, the hot ex-nanny turned trophy wife, grapple with infertility and a shocking paternity secret. Bartosz and Angelika (he’s a chef, she’s a former sex worker) carry debts to the other couples they don’t even realize they owe. Over fourteen days, the couples bond—but their pasts are too deeply intertwined to stay hidden. The sly concierge, Putu, knows more than he lets on.

Story
Annie has always had high hopes for her future. But the reality of her life just isn’t measuring up. She loves her fiancé, Greg–doesn’t she? She’s going to get her degree and open her own business–won’t she? Then, a strange old woman shows up outside her house, and she seems to know a lot about Annie. An awful lot. Annie could tell the old woman to get lost. Yet there’s something about her Annie just can’t shake. And what she learns could change her life forever–but is it the life she envisioned?

Story
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Story
The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

Story
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Story
Who is Audrey Hoedemaker? It's a question her sister Maureen has heard more times than she can count, and she doesn't know what the short answer would be. Little sister, troubled teen, backpacker, musical theatre coach, con artist, childcare worker. Murderer. A tragic, traumatic childhood casts a long shadow on the Hoedemaker sisters. Maureen has worked hard to move beyond the violence of the past and build a good, honest life for herself. Audrey, however, just can't seem to do the same, careening from one state of chaos to another.

Great Christian Science Fiction
I enjoyed this book. This novel displays a lot of research by the author and he does a great job of setting an authentic tone to a story which centers around NASA in the mid 1970's. It is an alternate history novel and I found it fun to hear how the Apollo 19 mission might have turned out. I was interested from the opening scene until the explanatory climax. As an added bonus, there is an Author's Note at the end of the book which gives some interesting insight into both the novel's factual and speculative details.
I found this book under the Audible category, "Fiction: Religious & Inspirational" so I was not surprised by the Christian theme of the book, though I would personally stop short of calling it "proselytizing." One of the minor storylines does involve the spiritual introspection of a central character, Logan, but this does not develop prominence until the end of the book. Frankly, I enjoy listening to well written science fiction novels which have Biblically based, Christian ideas. Good authors such as Shane Johnson are few and far between.
I gave the audiobook 4 stars because I found the narrator to be a bit choppy as he spoke. It took several hours to get used to his staccato tempo, so I could never quite shake the feeling that I was being "read to." I always listen to the audio book sample before buying, so I was prepared. I suggest that prospective buyers do the same. Overall, however, I highly recommend this book to sci-fi lovers - especially those of the Christian faith. This is an entertaining ride with a twist ending that most readers will never see coming. Give it a chance; I don't think you'll be disappointed.

ICE
This novel starts off slow, in narration and content, but quickly captures your attention. The end result is thought provoking. It is well worth your time.

Great story badly narrated
I have this story in print and was eager to hear the audio book, as it's one of my favorites. It is a very well told story, with an interesting twist on history and the Bible. A great "what if" story. However, the narrator was almost painful to listen to. He has a very gravelly voice, and it didn't feel like he was putting much effort into giving the story life. I hope that a better production will be made available. If so I will definitely get it!

I like it, but I can't really recommend it
I really enjoy this one, but I can't really recommend it - I enjoy it each time by focusing on the cool space scenes, shutting out the unrealistic and overly maudlin Earth stuff, and stopping the book just after a professional astronaut makes a really dumb move that is too much for me to swallow. There's an interesting sci-fi exploration story here, but it's buried in a heavy-handed Christian tale that departs further from reality the more you listen to it. Of course, YMMV - I can only say that MY enjoyment is highly conditional, and based on that, I can't recommend it.

Religious Prosletyzing in the guise of Fiction
Don't buy this book unless you want to get endlessly hammered with CHRISTIAN prosletyzing. It could have been a good story without the over-the-top christianity shoved down the readers throat. Save me from the bible thumpers.
I had to give it one star because the software won't let you rate it lower, like -2.
