From New York Times bestselling author Kevin J. Anderson comes Nether Station, a thrilling mix of epic science fiction and Lovecraftian horror.

Space is vast. Space is full of wonders. Space is terrifying.

In the darkest part of the solar system lies a wormhole. Nether.

Astrophysicist Cammie Skoura has joined the first research team traveling to the Nether anomaly, eager to understand the mechanics of the wormhole and to explore its possibilities as a shortcut to Alpha Centauri.

But another race of ancient beings has already been here—an impossibly long time ago—leaving remnants of their vast complexes and gigantic temples built for horrific beings beyond comprehension.

What dangers did those elder races find in the hidden corners of spacetime?

What did they unleash?

And what remains?

Now, Cammie and the crew of Nether Station must find the answers—before the darkest part of the cosmos swallows them up …

This was an ok book and some people might enjoy it a lot. It was a little juvenile in story and writing for my taste. Characters weren’t well developed. The “science” part wasn’t well developed and was overshadowed by a shaky fiction. The plot was very predictable. This was not a bad book and some people might enjoy it. It just wasn’t the style of story development and writing that engaged me personally.

Ok but Unfulfilled Potential

That the story ended. I wanted even more. I hope there will be a sequel or a follow up

The story was written in a way that a non scientific person like myself could understand And as always Scott Brick……

A good story but it left me wanting more. The ending was abrupt (my opinion). It could become a good series. Several characters, I felt, were left out in the end and did not really know what happened to them.

Always enjoy Scott Brick’s readings.

Decent beginning, want more

Generally I liked the book overall. My primary review is the author had some great ideas, it felt like a really complicated story. I found it tried to do too much, with some areas that the story never fully flushed out.

Concentrated topic

Kevin J Anderson’s Nether Station explores an anomaly at the edge of our solar system that appears to be a wormhole to Alpha Centari after a probe goes missing but sends a message back to Earth at a later date as if it had been instantaneously transported to Alpha Centari. A team led by a tech billionaire goes out to investigate and that’s where the trouble begins. The majority of the crew cannot be revived from their cyrosleep pods after the senior physicist dies in the process. Science duties fall to a younger, autistic scientist. Alien lifeforms are found around elaborate structures, and a story emerges that rather than a transportation hub, this station is defensive in nature against a powerful, dangerous entity.

Anderson offers an interesting sci-fi concept piece with alien technology operating at the edge of our solar system. Character motivations are a bit underwhelming with an autistic female physicist who is clueless about the romantic inclinations of her mentor as well as the tech billionaire who seems to imagine a huge trading opportunity with the other end of the wormhole.

Narration is excellent with solid character distinction. Pacing is smooth and a tad brisk.

I have been reading Kevin j. Anderson forever and I'm glad he's starting up again. my only disappointment is either that I've read too much science fiction and can see what's coming or he was a bit too predictable. anyways, it's a good read and a fun time

nothing better than a new space Opera

I kept getting vibes of early Alien. Good story, and fun evolution of events. I would look forward to a second book.

Gave me vibes of alien

It was good, a lot of fun, I love anything lovrcraftian and so much of it is pretty terrible so I pounced on this book. Decent characters. Not so blindingly stupid you want to kill then off yourself. Interesting ending. Definitely set up for another book or a series. Can’t wait!

Need sequel!

This was a nice book to listen too. It started a bit slow but picked up speed quickly. The author did a good
Job putting everything together and left it open for a nice series.

Very good book

Whenever I listen to a book narrated by Scott Brock I can’t tell is the book is really that good or if Scott makes it that good. I have the feeling with this one that it is an ok book made better by Scott.

Great narrator
