About this listen

Children are not supposed to rescue their parents, life is supposed to be the other way around. And rescues aren't supposed to be needed on the trip out to the new colony planet Valhalla. Slow, yes. Boring, yes. Dangerous? No, the trip is not supposed to be dangerous, never has been.

When thieves attack the transport ship to steal an ancient alien artifact, and young Kaylee and her brother, Manny, are cut off from their parents, they have to stop the thieves from getting what they want, because once the thieves have the artifact, they're not leaving any witnesses.

Wow

I came here due to Craig’s other books. This is good but more for a younger audience. It doesn’t have the same humour and sarcasm that I have really enjoyed with his other series.

A good teen space adventure

Craig's first I think. A good story but not the same level as Expeditionary Force which IMHO has set a new bar for SF. Still worth a listen.

Good Story. Very well performed
