About this listen
Years have passed since Earth encountered its first known interstellar object: Oumuamua. Now an even larger one has been discovered, following the exact same trajectory as its predecessor. Scientists around the world theorize that this can no longer be passed off as mere coincidence - the new contact must be an artificial construct of some kind.
With an ambitious plan to build a spacecraft and attempt a manned landing, a crew is formed. Disgraced astronaut Cassie Voges hopes to get selected for one last chance at redemption. Maverick billionaire Toby Merckx wants to beat his rivals to the extraordinary secrets he believes the object may unlock. And its controversial discoverer, Charles Hudson, seeks to escape his past and be remembered for something better.
What they find will change humanity forever.

very poor
in terms of science fiction, and apart from doubling the object there is not any single interesting new idea nor a twist on an existing idea nor a good explanation of any thing scientific nor fiction. Even no insight or explaining to the main idea.
the write had a stab on the human condition, polytics, media, law, and current day society and they all failed miserably.
The physics is poor, the time passing in the narrative is inconsistent, the characters will spend 3 minutes thinking before they say something then it's very shallow. small actions is being said to take 15minutes or an hour for some slow motion mysterious reason.
in terms of the story, so many gaps and contradictories, complete incoherently sometimes, and reversal of happenings as of the author forgets what he wrote a few chapters before.
the characters are shallow, and even the narration voices are poor and week.
the worst fiction and worst science fiction I ever read. also all ideas if any are a rib off. for example think of the movie Sphere.
absolutely disappointed.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
