About this audiobook
Mankind's first contact with extraterrestrial life led to an incredible revelation. Their last may lead them to extinction.
Twenty years have passed since the mysterious Near-Earth Object nicknamed Keanu appeared in the night sky and transported an assortment of humans from all over Earth into its interior. There they discovered that Keanu was an immense long-range spaceship-and they were not its only inhabitants. They joined forces with the aliens called the Architects, who had come from a distant galaxy to seek help in fighting the vicious Reivers. And they defeated them--or so they thought.
Now Keanu has reestablished contact with Earth-and discovered that the Reivers have, in fact, taken over the planet, placing most of the population under their dominion. A few scattered pockets of humanity, constantly in danger of being assimilated, have mounted a resistance.
As the Reivers prepare a devastating strike against the Architects, Rachel Stewart, who grew up in Keanu, leads a small band of human survivors in an attempt to infiltrate the massive Reiver fortress in the American West. But their only hope for victory may yet be somewhere inside the NEO.
If the men and women still in Keanu cannot find it, humanity will be finished. And the galaxy will be next.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Excellent read. Very good sf, wanted more, find out what happened on Earth next and what happens to the folks on Keanu. Narrative style was a little hard to get into in all the books but after the first couple of chapters wasn't a biggy. Loved the idea that curiosity, friendship and other feelings isn't just limited to humans but machine too - despite programming. This is what ultimately saves the day for Earth (I think! Where oh where is book 4???). Enjoyed that they brought Dale back. Same guy but somehow more human after his attempts to converse with Keanu. Fitting development of his character. That the other characters would not listen to him, didn't quite match as they were meant to be better people than Dale - open to ideas, able to work with others despite disagreements. Something happen that didn't make it to the final book edit?
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5The beginning was kind of boring and the ending was very problematic: so many things happen that don't make any sense or that are way too coincidental. The prose of the book was fine, but the story itself left a lot to be desired overall. I finished it because it was the end of a trilogy, but I really don't think I would go back to this series if there is a follow up book.
