About this listen

A secret too terrible to keep. And too dangerous to reveal.

In the depths of an ancient Egyptian tomb, archaeologists make a baffling discovery: the mummified body of a man clad in a space suit.

Halfway around the globe, exobiologist Dr. Katherine Shepard and intelligence officer Colonel Devon Peters are summoned to the site of a downed UFO. To their amazement, they find one of the occupants alive. Even more shocking, he appears to be human.

As Shepard and Peters delve deeper into the enigma, they expose a chilling truth: aliens have inhabited Earth far longer than anyone could have imagined, and they are not alone. An ancient, hidden war is being waged, with humanity’s survival hanging in the balance.

Thrust into a perilous world of shifting allegiances and veiled motives, Shepard and Peters must race against time to decipher the aliens’ true intentions and shield humanity from a revelation too shocking to comprehend.

The Fifth Kind is a gripping, high-octane hard science-fiction thriller that will leave you listening late into the night.

I enjoyed this story. I liked most of characters and their interplay was great. I liked Mr. Tiedemann's reading. He did a good job of bringing Mr. Prescott's characters to life.

The story was nail biting at times. The plot thickening to put me on the edge of my seat. Awesome.

Thank you, Mr. Prescott, for a great beginning to a new series. Thank you, Mr. Tiedemann, for bringing the story to life with your voice.

I only finished this book because the story was interesting. Narrator was disappointing. I will not buy another book narrated by him.

I listened all the way through but not really for me. The story seamed scattered and jumbled. The storyline just really didn’t come together for me.

Scattered…

What I liked most (without telling the story) is the reason aliens live among the humans. It was different.

I also liked the doomsday event that would end earth. I was always convinced that’s how we would go.

They live among us

This reading started out fine but slowly disolved into schizophrenia...time for the tin hats and tinfoil the windows! Could not finish..and I bought the audio..big regret!

started out ok however..

I wanted to like this book. Parts were decent, but overall everything was outweighed by shallow characters, weak plots, and odd interactions.

More of a teen book…

I call this one a popcorn flick. You know those summer movies that are tons of fun as long as you don't think too much about them. And I do not mean that as an insult at all. There are just times when you want to check out of reality and enjoy some fun. Author James Prescott might have gone a bit heavy on throwing most sci-fi tropes in The Fifth Kind, but it's still a fun time. Fast paced action and a wild story. The book in narrated by the talented Gary Tiedemannn who does an outstanding job, as he always does.
