Publisher's Summary

Sam never knew his parents. In fact, he’s never met another human - or seen a sunrise, smelled a flower or eaten a regular meal. All of that is about to change. 

It’s night in the desert, but he doesn’t feel the cold. There is a building ahead. Other people will be inside. His heart skips a beat as he takes a step forward, the rocks crunching under his bare feet. He has dreamed of this moment for as long as he can remember. But that which can be found can just as easily be lost again. It would have been better had Sam’s arrival gone unnoticed. But the artificial life form known only as the Authority is not one to miss such things. 

Nearly as old as time, and almost as powerful, the Authority was built by an ancient civilisation as both an enforcer and a war machine, the destroyer of worlds. It has been watching Sam his entire life. Watching, and waiting, and judging. And now, it has decided that it’s time to act.

Easy good listen.

First of all, I was waiting for Reacher to step out and shoot someone. Some of the story sounds just like Lee Child writing and the narration is, of course exactly the same.
Story is simple and enjoyable. Good bits of comedy. It was a freebie so even better.

Fun and quirky

This is a great story, hoping to find more from the author. Funny and quirky, with a stupid army bad guy but great good guys.
