    About this audiobook

    When it first appeared, the astronomers named the asteroid Keanu.

    A Near Earth Object, from a distant constellation, it was headed directly toward our sun.

    But when we went to meet it, it turned out to be far more than a huge rock hurtling through space...

    The two teams of astronauts sent to explore Keanu discovered it is, in fact, a spacecraft, a giant ship with an alien crew. A ship that had headed to Earth with a mission and a message: Help Us. A brave new frontier beckons. But we are about to learn that it comes with a price...

    Without warning, the aliens transport small groups of humans from the competing scientific communities of Houston, Texas and Bangalore, India to the vast interior habitats of Keanu. Their first challenge is to survive. Their second; to discover why The Architects-the unknown, unseen aliens controlling the asteroid-brought them there. And soon a third emerges: they must find a way to take control of Keanu.

    Because the NEO is moving again-away from Earth. The Architects are headed home...

      A little confusing in parts. Since I read the 1st book nearly a year ago, I had to catch myself up.
    • 5/5
      Very good second instalment. Interesting how they try to bring a society together on Keanu. Good mix of characters (as in pro team work, teenagers, loners, doers etc), and character development. More on the mysterious Sentry race etc with glimpses of how Keanu should work and what it's purpose was. More explanation of the revenants. Very interesting concept of how the dead can be 'brought back to life'. Maybe we'll have that tech one day.

      OK follow up to the first book. We finally learn much more of what is really going on.
