During a routine survey mission on an uncolonized planet, Kira finds an alien relic. At first she’s delighted, but elation turns to terror when the ancient dust around her begins to move. As war erupts among the stars, Kira is launched into a galaxy-spanning odyssey of discovery and transformation. First contact isn’t at all what she imagined, and events push her to the very limits of what it means to be human. While Kira faces her own horrors, Earth and its colonies stand upon the brink of annihilation. Now, Kira might be humanity’s greatest and final hope....

great voice, average, bloated story
Revisado: 01-23-21
really good narration. Story not so much. paolini's previous work was considered derivative. He's changed genre, but it's still derivative. This time of the Alien franchise, and he seems to acknowledge this with some awkward homages. The book is compelling at times but at other times seems like it was written with a screenplay or video game in mind. And the main character manages to be the only significant person in the universe in terms of the events, everyone else is under developed. This is soft sci fi but for some reason there is an appendix explaining the future tech at the end. Like some piece of lore you would find in an RPG game. A good writer would weave that stuff into the story, lord knows he had enough opportunity in this bloated book. Without spoilers I can't get into the finer points.

aliens attack EastEnders
Revisado: 01-22-21
it's hard to feel that galaxy traversing space opera vibe you usually get from Peter Hamilton when everyone sounds like they belong on EastEnders.

Jupiter's moon Io has an extremely hostile environment. There are hot lava streams, seas of boiling sulfur, and frequent volcanic eruptions straight from Dante’s Inferno, in addition to constant radiation bombardment and a surface temperature hovering at minus 180 degrees Celsius. Is it really home to a great danger that threatens all of humanity? That's what a surprise message from the life form discovered on Enceladus seems to indicate.

solid continuation
Revisado: 09-01-20
I want to see how the story turns out so this was kind of a necessary middle part. it's a solid continuation/ conclusion of the enceledous mission.
performance was mostly good but pronunciation of Chinese names was bad. I can appreciate that Chinese names arent easy but if you're saying a name hundreds of times in a story you should spend 2 minutes researching the correct pronunciation.

Hannah's a witch, but not the kind you're thinking of. She's an Elemental with the power to control fire, earth, water, and air. But even though she lives in Salem, MA, her magic is a secret she has to keep to herself. So, Hannah spends most of her time avoiding her ex-girlfriend (and fellow Elemental Witch) Veronica, hanging out with her best friend, and working at the Fly by Night Cauldron selling candles and crystals to tourists, goths, and local Wiccans. Then evidence of dark magic begins to appear all over Salem, and Hannah's sure it's the work of a deadly Blood Witch.

Joey Montgomery, a simple and shy girl, was forced to volunteer at the carnival her mother’s elite country golf club had organized. Her job? Just taking charge of the kissing booth and being paid to kiss random strangers. With every kiss, Joey was either feeling neutral or utterly disgusted. But everything else didn’t matter when the most popular girl in town paid a visit to the booth to get a kiss from her. Olivia Winchester, a bold and outgoing bisexual gal, went to the carnival with her friends. There, she met the girl whom she has never noticed before.

Nice story
Revisado: 04-14-19
Cute story for the most part, nothing annoying or frustrating and not too many genre clichés. Likeable main characters but the antagonists were a bit like Disney villains. I wish it was longer, there is potential to have fleshed out more characters. I guess it's a good thing when you finish and want more.
