About this listen

A debut space horror adventure in the vein of Alien, in which a starship captain must keep her crew alive while an unknown intruder hunts them.

As acting captain of the starship Calypso, Jacklyn Albright is responsible for keeping the last of humanity alive as they limp back to Earth from their forebears’ failed colony on a distant planet.

Faced with constant threats of starvation and destruction in the treacherous minefield of interstellar space, Jacklyn's crew has reached their breaking point. As unrest begins to spread throughout the ship’s Wards, a new threat emerges, picking off crew members in grim, bloody fashion.

Jacklyn and her team must hunt down the ship’s unknown intruder if they have any hope of making it back to their solar system alive.

I really enjoyed this! It was the short, unsettling alien horror that I wanted when I picked it up. I really loved that our main character was a queer Black woman. It was a nice change of pace for the other sci-fi horror that I've read. In some ways, it did feel like a retelling of the movie "Alien" and some elements ended up feeling a bit convenient.

Overall, this was an action-packed, creepy sci-fi horror that doesn't disappoint on the entertainment side of things while giving you the happy ending you want.

Short Action-Packed, Creepy Sci-fi Horror...

I was super excited about this one due to the lovecraftian descriptions people were giving it and the cover art seemed to back those claims. Sadly, there was nothing lovecraftian about it. Decent story for what it was, but I would have liked any at all description of things. VA was pretty good, if not a bit robotic. Overall it was ok.

Good, but it could have been better.

Very detailed and very well done tying all plot points together. Good description of characters. Loved the diversity of crew.

Great job!

Overall a disappointing tale. I think the novel could have used twice the time and elaborated on many items as well as strung out the suspense. The heroine didn’t seem like a strong enough character to support all she has to go through. She falls back on side characters to do the heavy lifting. I found the character of Watson infinitely more interesting. There is definitely a setup for sequels considering the ending. Perhaps further books will add to this universe.

Meh.

Looking forward to more from this author! I can tell the best is yet to come.

A short but fun ride
