About this listen

The first installment in the thrilling, action-packed Chaos Chronicles.

When John Bandicut sets out across the surface of Triton, he's hardly ready for the storm of chaos that's about to blow through his life. The alien Quarx that soon inhabits his mind is humanity's first contact with an alien life. The Quarx, part of an ancient galactic civilization that manipulates chaos theory to predict catastrophic events, seeks to prevent a cometary collision that could destroy the Earth. But it must have help.

If Bandicut chooses to trust the Quarx, he must break all the rules - indeed, sacrifice his life as he knows it - to prevent humanity's greatest cataclysm. Leaving friends and a lover behind, hurtling across the solar system in a stolen spaceship, Bandicut can only pray that his actions will save the Earth - even if he doesn't live to see it again.

This required patience and perseverance to finish

This was a very interesting premise... I mean, who doesnt like the concept of an alien sharing your mind, and enabling you to do unworldly things... and I also get that, in order to make the main character interesting and more believable.. you have to introduce some tension.. a fatal flaw that might be his undoing.. but this was just too heavy handed in its application... The main character was, well.. just plain unlikeable and irritating.. I felt like I was forced to sit through scene after scene of hand wringing, soul crushing doubt and dispair.. Ive never met a more angst ridden "hero".. and Im sorry.. its just too much.. By the time I reached the end, I was glad to have finished it.. The hard scifi was handled well.. the plot was interesting.. but the main character was just .. too.. yuck!.... I never felt any kind of emotional connection to him at.all.. he was universally, and obnoxiously, pathetic. Sadly.. I dont want to read the rest of the books.. and I think I'll be missig out on an interesting story.. life is just too short to willingly hang out with a constantly miserable main character.. Even the brilliance of Stephen as narrator, couldnt salvage this painfully awful, overwrought main character.. Darnit.
