Publisher's summary

“The Earth will be conquered, and humanity enslaved.”

This is the warning delivered to Will Ryder by the alien spaceship that crash-landed in his backyard.

But there is hope.

With the ship's AI guiding him, Will must rebuild the craft in his barn and take to the stars to prevent the cataclysmic invasion.

Time is running out, money and materials are low, and the government is suspicious. Will’s destiny is across the galaxy, but getting off Earth alive may be his biggest challenge.

Great

A very good start to the series, waiting for the next one! Nice development for a series, spent time laying down the details.

Building a spaceship and going to the stars is or has been a dream of nearly every scifi believer.

The author touched on all the basics needed in creating a spaceship from obtaining finances to having robots to help build it. Spicing the story with a meteor in the back yars. nosy neighbors, and fbi to build reality was a nice touch.

I love this type of story.

Great character development
the narrators are very good, the AI kept making me think my car navigation was breaking into the story. no issue with it.
was sorry I found this without having a second or 3rd book finished for Audible.

Great Listen, Highly Recommend

A classical science fiction tale. Excellent narration with a somewhat expected outcome to the story, but it's beautiful like a painting that's done in black and white with just hints of blue here and there. A story not unexpected from the title, yet the characters and flavor and quality audio production put this in the top 10% of my library of about 300 titles. It's simple, elegant and fun.

why only book 1 on audible?

I find this title I like that has 9 books in the series then find out only book 1 is on Audible. And there's apparently no one that can be contacted to find out why. why??? This is the kind of thing that makes you write off an author. Seriously what the hell?

Really great story.

Performed fantastically by the narrator. I honestly didn't expect to like this book but man was I wrong. Will is a pretty good representation of the Everyman.
