    About this audiobook

    The best-selling author of Daemon returns with a near-future technological thriller, in which a charismatic billionaire recruits a team of adventurers to launch the first deep space mining operation — a mission that could alter the trajectory of human civilization.

    When itinerant cave diver James Tighe receives an invitation to billionaire Nathan Joyce's private island, he thinks it must be a mistake. But Tighe's unique skill set makes him a prime candidate for Joyce's high-risk venture to mine a near-Earth asteroid — with the goal of kick-starting an entire off-world economy. The potential rewards and personal risks are staggering, but the competition is fierce, and the stakes couldn't be higher.

    Isolated and pushed beyond their breaking points, Tighe and his fellow 21st-century adventurers — ex-soldiers, former astronauts, BASE jumpers, and mountain climbers — must rely on each other to survive not only the dangers of a multi-year expedition but the harsh realities of business in space. They're determined to transform humanity from an Earth-bound species to a space-faring one — or die trying.

      Different from his other novels, which is always a problem when you bring preconceived notions of what type of books an author writes. All his novels postulate a near future world, and a host of clever tales on the use and misuse of science by society. this book differs in that it is very focused on the issues involved in the transition from space “tourism” (go to the moon, take picktures, plant a flag then go home) to actual space industry and exploitation. It’s still a fully featured world and you come to become quite involved in the flawed characters, their struggles and eventual resolution.
      Great performance by Jeff Gurney as well.
    • 3/5
      I finished all Daniel Suarez books in one go and this is by far my least favorite. It still has his suspenseful writing style and futuristic technologies but the story was rather boring. It was no comparison to the deamon series or influx.
