Publisher's summary
FOR MILLIONS OF YEARS, SATURN HID AN ALIEN SECRET. IN 2065, HUMANITY WILL FIND IT.
Carpenter Lowell is a disgraced Marine assigned to a remote US research station on Saturn's moon Enceladus, where scientists have made an extraordinary discovery in the ocean below. A special forces team, led by Lowell’s murderous former commanding officer, shows up to investigate. Almost immediately, everything begins to unravel. Something beneath the surface has been activated.
Soon every space force on Earth — American, Chinese, Russian, and more — is converging on the tiny moon, ready to start a war. But when a young archeologist with a knack for dead languages makes an amazing discovery of his own, Lowell realizes the stakes are higher than anyone could’ve imagined. He soon has no choice but to disobey orders and fight soldiers he helped train as he races to stop an unimaginable chain reaction that threatens the entire solar system. The countdown has begun...
Artifact, the first book in the Saturn's Legacy series, is a sci-fi thriller full of mystery, intrigue, and epic action from the depths of the ocean to the edge of outer space.

A Captivating Listen!
While technically falling short of perfection, the story is as addictive as a space opera can get! And the ending doesn’t disappoint! ‘Though I have to admit that it didn’t quite end the way I was expecting it to.
I can’t wait to sink my teeth into the next book in the series! I’m hoping that it will answer some questions that were left unanswered by this book!

Gripping Sci-Fi Thriller
I was entertained by book one of the "Saturn's Legacy" series. This was one of those stories that gripped my attention from the very beginning until the end. It was difficult for me to shut off the audiobook to go to sleep, and I couldn't wait to get it started again, once I had some free time. There was plenty of action. The political machinations kept my interest. The characters, Carpenter Lowell and the young archeologist Peter Chang, were fun. I liked their character arcs and their interactions as the story progressed. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series. Paul Heitsch's narration was extraordinary, and his performance added to my enjoyment of the story. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review which included my opinions.

Started strong, then the writing declined.
I really liked the first half or so but as the story continued, the dialogue was just juvenile. The conversations the main characters have during tense scenes made me grimace. It was like the author thought some comedy would help enhance the plot but all it did was pull me from the story. I’m about 60% through the book and can’t decide if it’s worth continuing. Did I buy a young adult book and not realize it?
