About this listen
An explosive new science fiction series by New York Times best-selling author Kevin J. Anderson, Hidden Empire is the first volume in The Saga of the Seven Suns, modeled after the Star Wars and X-Files universes. Anderson has become the foremost science fiction writer of the century, bringing to life vivid characters and worlds that delight his fans across the galaxy.
The Klikiss, a now-extinct alien civilization, left behind vast technological information that has been discovered by two xenoarchaeologists. One discovery, a device that converts gas planets into life-giving suns is quickly put to the test with unimaginable results. Arising out of the test is a new alien species that threatens every human. Mankind is left with the dim reality - either fight the new alien life form or face humiliation, death and extinction. This riveting adventure swings you from one wondrous realm to another as the Hidden Empire is sought after and exposed.
Anderson has created a gripping beginning to what will surely be his best series yet. George Guidall has returned a stellar performance and brought these characters to life in vivid detail.

Oddly old-school
I had to do a spot of online research about the author and narrator to put my feelings about this book in context. Admittedly I thought it was a new release, as in 'just been written'
What I got was a book that felt like it had been written back in the 70s by someone's grandpa.... Then narrated by that dudes grandpa...
I'm no kid myself - in my 6th decade- but some of the language, and hints of the authors personal world view coming through, made me think I'd picked up a book I'd somehow missed when I was a kid!
The book itself is fine in terms if world building etc but super light in terms of credible science. "He powered up the turbochargers on his Stardrive" (maybe not verbatim, but close enough that you get the idea)
Should be gathering dust on a shelf somewhere next to John Carter
Have a listen, tell me I'm wrong...
I'm aware this author and narrator are both legends in their respective fields. 'Respect'
This is just one guys opinion
