Reach for the Stars

Rise of Mankind

De: John Walker

Narrado por: James Patrick Cronin

Humanity has always looked to the heavens, curiosity urging them to take flight.

After a failed mission to go beyond the borders of Earth’s solar system, a new fleet has been built ready to tackle any threat they may discover. But sometimes danger seeks out victims, and just as they are preparing to depart, two ships arrive on the edge of their space. Unsure if these invaders are friendly or hostile, the Behemoth, the flagship of the fleet and only real military vessel, prepares for battle. When one of their space stations is destroyed, they must come to terms with the possibility that they may be outmatched and outgunned...for these intruders seem intent on violence. After getting no answers to requests to talk and seemingly no offer for quarter, humanity must face the very real possibility of extinction.

Amazing story

A great story that was over WAY too soon. I can't wait to dive into the rest of this series!

Good start

A good start. Hopefully it will ratchet upon the continuing story. So far very predictable.

Good Short Story

Time well spent. Sometimes its nice to find a short story when you have an hour to spare.

Good performance.

Ready for more

Good action, interesting storyline and family friendly. Really enjoy narrator, that's why I listened. Ready for more!

Great Start

John Walker takes his readers on an action packed adventure! While only an hour and fifty minutes, his attention to details to the characters, setting, and emotion is not lost.
I will be sure to continue listening to his novels!
James Patrick Cronin has been in my ears awhile now and each story he tells is entrancing. I'm sucked to any story he does!
If you enjoy science fiction, aliens, space action, and Star Wars, this is right up your alley.
