About this listen

Before the story continues, there's another which must be told..."Space is nothing but a graveyard..."

These were the words uttered by leader of the Utopia mission, Admiral Harry Ransome, in the year 2342. It was the last transmission he ever sent. 150 years later, he is discovered on a distant frozen planet, very much alive having barely aged a day.

This story tells the tale of what happened to Harry Ransome between the sending of that fateful message and the end of 'Horizon.'

although this book is the prequel, listen to it after book 1. It's related, but you need some of the background from Book 1 to understand the world and get some of the background. I listened to this first, the Book 1, and honestly, I was a bit list in this book. It all came together when I listened to Book 1.

I listened to book 1 before getting this Prequel, but does not hurt or spoil either of the books. This one just elaborate more of the background story and how things in book 1 actually came about. Narrator does a good job with the various characters and the entire storyline.

Received the audiobook from the narrator to review, this is an honest review. Once again Brandon J. Peterson delivers a gorgeous and harrowing performance that elevates author's David W. Adams Ransome to nightmare levels. This is story of of the Utopia program that admiral Harry Ransome finds himself leading the valiant Odyssey into the deepest of space to save humanity before it all collapses. But it every turn, any ally the crew find only ends up delivering continuous pain and grief that's consuming their very souls. And for Harry, what his hardened crew and himself endures is all the more devastating as himself being seduced by vibrantly beautifully alien woman Drucilla sets into motion all of the horrors everyone witnesses. Even for Dru herself is caught up into the hell that this mission she designed to so it the end of it.


The best science fiction horror story that's bristling with visceral descriptions that keeps you captivated.


Highly recommended.

I enjoyed this book almost as much as the first one. I hope there will be another book in the series because I’m completely invested. The same narrator did an outstanding job on both books!

Giving details about Harry Ransome and his crew as well as the fate of the Odyssey, this prequel was excellent. Parts of the tale felt predictable because it occasionally felt like a rehashing of Horizon. In order to find out what happens to the survivors and address certain unanswered problems, I am eager to pick up where Horizon left off.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

It was alright
