About this ebook

Facing the enemy at the gates

All her life Cariad had one dream: to participate in humanity’s colonization of deep space. After topping her field as a geneticist, and then spending 184 years in cryonic suspension, she’s achieved her goal.

But the new planet is not the paradise the scientists predicted. Alien predators come out at night, ready to feast on the new arrivals, and saboteurs have stowed away aboard the ship, determined to destroy the new colony.

To defeat the settlers’ enemies, Cariad must enlist the help of the disgruntled Gens, last in the line of generational colonists who lived and died on the long journey to the stars, and who hate the Woken scientists.

Infighting and strife plague Cariad’s efforts. If the colony’s factions don’t pull together, the flame of hope for humanity will be snuffed out.

The Concordia Deception is book one in the compelling, provocative space colonization epic adventure, Space Colony One.

Ratings and reviews

I've read a lot of space themed novels. From generational ships to far flung colonies to interdimensional pirates. This book has some things in common, but it definitely stands on it's own. Wonderful world building both literally & metaphorically :> Also love the surprising twists revealed at just the right times.

I like the idea of what a deep space colony could be like and exploring the possibility of human nature being instinctual or learned. Sometimes the book was a little boring but then it would pick up again.

Not normally a book I would read but it kept me interested, characters were fairly average but story line was good, worth a read.
