About this listen

"They call us Arbiters. We arbitrate conflict to keep the peace."

In 2853, humanity has established a presence across the solar system. Linked by a network of FTL gateways called Boson Apertures, travel between the seven colonized worlds and thousands of space colonies takes only hours.

The Sol Federation is the final authority, and the Arbiters travel the system to maintain order.

Arbiters Gabriel Anderson and Tycho Barrett have just been sent to intervene in a growing crisis on Venus. Information is limited, but they know two things: Tower 7 has gone completely dark, and security androids are killing civilians.

No one knows what has become of the tower's 520,000 residents or who is responsible for the mysterious assault, but the priority of the mission is clear.

Tycho and Gabriel must breach the tower, investigate the missing civilians, and locate the one responsible…all while trying to stay alive.

Witness the beginning of an expansive sci-fi epic in this first entry to the Sol Arbiter series. If you're a fan of Altered Carbon, Dredd, or Blade Runner, you'll love this cyberpunk thrill ride.

Wham! Boom! Bang! Action was Sensational!

Chaney make sure that your amygdala is active, so that not just your fight or flight, but your fear section of your brain is extremely energetic!

good story, good narration, idiot character

this is one of those stories that I enjoy despite the main character's level of intelligence. some good action some good mystery some good surprises they all add up to a really fun story with a little bit of a twist that I can't say I've seen before. totally worth a listen.

the main character is in a weird limbo between elite military professional and high school idiot. it's only his cycling between the two that drives me up the wall.

I would just prefer more military style communications between the main characters since they're supposed to be elite units. They just don't sound like soldiers.

Other than that it's a thumbs up for sure.

Awesome

Book flowed nicely and the narration was great. The setting of the book wasn’t described in lack of detail, but it wasn’t overly detailed either. I don’t like that in an audiobook all the time, but here it definitely worked. The writing put emphasis on story, setting, and characters equally without going overboard.

It’s keeps you toned in

I like the book a lot. I can see why some people may find in annoying for some actions for the main character but none the less it was a pretty good read. The narrator did a great job in separating the voices of the characters as well.

Really enjoyed this!

This is sci-fi with a premise different from what I’ve seen before and it is a welcome experience indeed. Do yourself a favor and listen right now. You’ll be glad you did.
Now I’m going to start the second book in the series. :-)

what a ride

This book starts off a little slower than other Chaney books, but it picks up and doesn't let off the gas. I've already listened to book 2 and let me tell you, it's amazing! If you pick this one up, stick around for the rest as they only get better.

Similar premise to Dredd(2012)

If you liked the 2012 Dredd movie you will likely enjoy this story. Though the main character is no where near as stoic as Judge Dredd the arbiters fulfill a similar role to the Judges and the setting is a tower city just like the movie.
