Story
Dr. Tyson Klein is a quantum physicist who has dedicated his entire life to his research. At CERN, he analyses data generated by the Large Hadron Collider, the world's biggest and most powerful particle accelerator. Now, Ty believes he's found a pattern in its output. It looks like an organised data stream, being broadcast over what he calls a quantum radio. Could it be a signal from another universe? A message sent from the future? Or something else entirely?

Seventy thousand years ago, the human race almost went extinct. We survived, but no one knows how.
Until now. The countdown to the next stage of human evolution is about to begin, and humanity might not survive this time. The Immari are good at keeping secrets. For 2,000 years, they've hidden the truth about human evolution. They've also searched for an ancient enemy - a threat that could wipe out the human race. Now the search is over.

Publisher's Summary
Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Only Human by Sylvain Neuvel, read by a returning cast.
We always thought the biggest threat to humanity would come from the outside. We were wrong.
As the human race picks up the pieces of destruction left behind, a new world order emerges. New alliances are formed. Old divisions are strengthened. And with a power struggle fuelled by the threat of mutually assured destruction, nothing is certain.
At a time when the world's nations should have been coming together, they have never been more divided. With the human race teetering on the brink of total war, Rose, Vincent and Eva must choose sides. But doing the right thing might mean making the ultimate sacrifice.

Some performances were irritating beyond belief
I’ve enjoyed this series. Unusual storyline, some great characters and some quality voice performances.
But this third book was bizarre.
- One of the protagonists had a Puerto Rican accent in Book 2 then a false Jersey accent in Book 3 for no apparent reason. Plus she used made-up ‘alien’ curse words that were tedious and felt forced.
- An antagonist female (supposedly a high ranking Russian military enforcer) used the most grating nauseously facetious, singsong, mocking voice constantly that made me want to punch the my device.
- An entire chapter was read in a computerised alien voice (imagine a 5 year old doing robot arms and saying “su-ren-der hu-mans”) so hit the skip button repeatedly.
Unless this book gets re-recorded, I’d suggest you find another read.

entire series ruined by a single character
Major Catherine Lebedev ruined the entire series for me. Couldn't even finish this book because of her. Voice actors are universally brilliant, but my god. I wanted to smash my phone after 30 seconds of her lines. Awful.

Great first two books.
Didn't need the third. Generally good voice acting except the change with Eva really made it hard to listen past the start.

It's not a plot device if there's no plot.
The readers did as well as they could work the whiny drivel they were given. The vestiges of a plot left over from the previous book were not enough to make another volume so it was padded with puerile monologues to meet the word count. No redeeming features. Don't waste your money or credits on this one.

Twas okay!
I'm glad I powered through. It was a bit rocky to begin with, I could not stand Eva's new accent. It was still a good story in the end. But it was a slog in the beginning. all the recasting was very jarring.

Cool story, bad voice acting
The story is kinda cool but has it’s logical fallacies imo. Voice acting is really bad on some important characters. Too bad.

Worst of the three so far
The previous book finished on such a high, this entry in the series is jarring in how it changes gone. Focusses on more development of the alien race, which is neat, but is a lot more of a political drama than a sci fi action. Could be for some people, not for me

Less interesting than the first two.
Eva's new voice actor had a completely different accent and annoying made up swear words.
A new character Catherine is permanently the sarcastic good cop, which becomes grating fast.
The setting for one half of the book is just not that interesting, and all decision making by everyone in positions of power come across as irrational.
