About this listen

He's a child raised in secret; hidden inside him is a power that could change the course of history....

Crix’s past is about to collide with his future. His past—murdered parents, his home destroyed, the key to changing everything within him meets his future when a black spaceship crashes nearby.

Driven by an insatiable curiosity, Crix is resolute in his quest to unravel the mysteries of the ship. His journey, however, takes an unexpected turn as he finds himself in a high-stakes race for survival. He must search for answers within himself as he confronts the Marcks, a relentless robotic force in pursuit of a cryptic object.

Time is running out, and hope is running low. Will he trust the alluring and sharp-witted Kerriah? Can he discover the truth in the shadows of the past?

Okay, just to get this out of the way, I received a free copy of the audiobook by Gregory Benson. He said, "Do you want to listen to this audiobook and write something about it?". So, I said "Okay!"

I must say I enjoyed this audiobook, It has that kind of popcorn feel about it. That is not to say it is a bad book ar anything like that, but it is one of those light books where you breathe, sit back and just go with the flow of the story.

The story centres around our hero, Crix.

Crix feels different from those around him, mainly because he is. He is a lone human in an alien environment. He has been raised by his guardian Hafllinger amongst the equine race of Andors, a species of equine inhabitants of the planet Troika.

Not only that, he is a Tolagon, and has an orb inside him that gives him extraordinary powers.

However, evil forces are afoot, and one day as he is out walking he sees an unidentified craft crash land. Now Crix is a bit of a curious lad and decides that he needs to investigate and makes his way over the dangerous terrain to the crash site to investigate and discovers that the pilot, a Mendac girl called Kerriah is alive and well, and that she might need a little bit of help getting out of her crashed spaceship.

He is subsequently thrown headlong into an adventure that will take him further than he has ever been before, running from the might of the evil empire of the Marcks, stumbling on ancient gods, and becoming embroiled in a prison break on a prison planet.

This book was an enjoyable read, especially as we are thrown straight into the adventure, and it keeps the pace at full tilt until the end.

I found that one of the things that helped was that I didn't have to think too hard about this book and that I just went from one dangerously life-threatening situation to the next without much in between. It has a fun-filled action-packed plot that drags you along with its flow.

If I thought about it a little bit, there were some small fissures in the gloss of the story, but I thought what the heck. let the story wash over you and just go with it. And with that, all restraints thrown off, I enjoyed this audiobook

The book is narrated by Gabriel Micheals who does a pretty good job of bringing the characters to life and injecting some verve into the story. He has such a good vocal range that gives definition and personality to each character. I was able to follow th narrative of the story and didn't get lost in the action. So, on the whole, got to say that I quite liked this and will definitely be seeking out the sequel.

A fun filled space opera
