FROM MILLION-COPY BESTSELLER JASPER T. SCOTT

The Forerunners set out from Earth to colonize neighboring star systems

And to search for intelligent life...

The United Nations of Earth sent out the Forerunner ships to explore and colonize the four most promising star systems within 50 light-years of Earth.

Forerunner One left Earth under the command of Captain Clayton Cross, heading for Trappist-1. After a ninety year journey to reach it, the crew encountered not only a habitable world, but alien life already inhabiting it, and dark secrets lurking beneath the surface.

The revelation of who these aliens are and what they want proves more terrifying than promising, and Captain Cross is forced to make tough decisions that will affect not only his crew, but the fate of the entire human race.

This was a good book and the star of a good series

The story was great, the narration ... One thing that did grate on my ears, everytime I heard it, was pronouncing corpsman as corpse-man. The S is always silent. It was that way throughout the book. Setting that feedback aside, the narrator was skilled, did multiple voices well, had exceptional tempo, and overall created added value to the story. I would have no problem purchasing a book with the same narrator in the future, or by the same author.

A new author for me, and I loved it

Great narration. I was not sure it was going to.be the sylebof scinfin that i.like, but I was hooked right away!

Great

This book was a great beginning for a series. The development of the characters was unexpected and added to the mystery of what was going on. I really enjoyed listening to this book.

The narrator did an outstanding job of amplifying the emotions of the characters as well as the multiple voices required for the characters.

Poorly narrated

The story was good, however the narrator was so poor that it almost caused me to quit listening, after 4 or 5 chapters.

Excellent Read for for sci fi fans...

...And those who like off world military Adventure. I have enjoyed everything I have read by Jasper T Scott!!
