About this ebook

THEY ARE COMING. THE COUNTDOWN HAS BEGUN. The discovery of objects approaching from Jupiter orbit sets humanity on edge, sending cities into panic. Most is unknown, but thanks to the popular Astral space app, everyone knows the few facts the government has tried to hide: The objects are enormous spheres numbering in the dozens, maybe hundreds. They are on an approach vector toward Earth … and they will arrive in six days.


Entrepreneur Meyer Dempsey is in New York, realizing the time has come to act on all the preparations he’s made without ever consciously knowing why. For years Meyer has been preoccupied by a dreamlike sense of coming peril and knows where he must take his family … if, that is, they can make it before society eats itself alive with fear. 

This relentless, page-turning tale of apocalyptic dawn is the first in the Alien Invasion series by masters of story Truant & Platt, authors of The Beam, Robot Proletariat, and many more.

I enjoyed the realism I felt as I read how the world slowly goes bad when the news that aliens will be arriving soon. The characters are well developed and more or less act in a realistic manner. I didn't like that there got to a point where it felt as if the "good guys" were never in any real danger, sort of like you know the protagonist in a movie will never die. Also keep in mind that this is just the first part of a seven book saga, so don't expect the story to progress that much.

This book was horrible. So glad I got it free rather than paying money for it. You know how women's romance novels are almost always complete and utter trash? This was the men's version. Characterization was shallow, plot was trivial. There are so many better apocalyptic novels out there. Pass this one by!
