All he wanted was a quiet place to rest.

What he found instead was the Earth.

Jim Atteberry is a single parent college professor, laboring over an endless pile of essays while indulging in his radio astronomy hobby. But when he hears an apparent distress call from the Ross 128 star system, he is hurled into a deadly mystery. And what he discovers could either save the world... or destroy it.

But Atteberry’s discovery doesn’t go unnoticed by those who lurk in science’s deepest shadows, and immediately he is forced to run from corporate militia and scientific leaders who will stop at nothing to acquire his knowledge. Aided by a troubled scientist, Esther, and a damaged Spacer named Kate, Jim must find the truth about this alien signal before time runs out.

A spellbinding near future tale set against a backdrop global ambitions, and the essence of what it means to be human, the Ross 128 series challenges beliefs as old as humanity itself...and as current as today's headlines.

Poorly edited

Plot is good story seems well written. The editing of the audio is just poor enough to pull listener away from the story.

Good Science Fiction

So i like this first of 3 books. I did detect what is possible political bias in the story that I'm unsure about. I hope the author dosen't use this to make a statement.

Decent story

I got really annoyed by how the female characters were all described in terms if what made them stereotypically attractive/unattractive to men. The author didn’t provide much physical description of male characters.

The end was more interesting than the story

all of the characters were evolving, stupid, or mean. I wanted the children to shoot them all and escape to space.

Title

What I thought would be a story about 1st contact, became a story about politics. Very predictable and boring.
