Summary

Mankind's first alien contact tears into Earth: Projectiles launched from Jupiter's moon, Ganymede, vaporize whole cities. Under siege, humanity gambles on one desperate counterstrike. In a spacecraft scavenged from scraps and armed with Vietnam-era weapons, foot soldiers like 18-year-old Jason Wander-orphans that no one will miss-must dare man's first interplanetary voyage and invade Ganymede.

They have one chance to attack, one ship to attack with. Their failure is our extinction.

Sorry but I couldn't finish it. (performance 👎)

The story might be great but I can't get into it because of the terrible performance. The guy reads like he very rarely reads anything, with practically the same irritating intonation in every sentence- giving no sense of the tone the book was meant to be read in. Do better, Audible.
