About this listen

The stars are within mankind’s reach…but what awaits in the void may end humanity.

Mars and the Moon have been colonized, piracy runs rampant in the asteroid belts, and a thriving society grows in the depths of space. Humanity prepares to embark upon its greatest journey - the colonization of Alpha Centauri.

Then, everything changes. A deep space reconnaissance probe discovers a new Earth-like planet 12 light-years from Earth’s sun. The probe also finds something unusual, something...unnerving. A new mission is created, a space fleet is formed, and humanity embarks on unravelling the greatest mystery of all - the origins of life itself.

Can the factions of Earth remain united, or will old rivalries and animosities destroy the fragile peace in the face of this terrifying existential threat? Will exploration prove to be a fatal mistake?

If you love new technologies, fast-paced action, and gut-wrenching turns of fate, you’ll love this military sci-fi series.

Great narration. Story line was a bit simple at times but I’m heading for book 2 so overall it was a good listen

I've been looking for a book that is similar to the expeditionary force that will pull me in and entertain me. Into the stars, it's a fantastic read. And I can't wait to listen to the rest of the books.

The expeditionary force has found its equal.

As someone who is a beta reader for James Rosone, I have seen this book in the early stages of its life. The world-building is so intriguing and thought-provoking. The spaceship designs are so awesom. The characters are just what you'd wish for, and the nods to the current trends of science are on point!

Now, it feels so great to see it be brought to life by a talented audio production. This narrator fits the narrative style perfectly. For the Irish Space Pirate, it sounded like he gave his best Liam Neeson impression (I mean, of course!), while also taking the initiative with character voices.

Be sure to check it out! This will be one of many, so start now.

An epic start of a thrilling series!
