Butler, best seller Jody Lynn Nye, indie best sellers Chris Kennedy and Mark Wandrey, and more. Also featuring an introduction by multi-award-winning and New York Times best-selling author Larry Correia.

It is 2185 CE. Humans now live throughout the Solar System, but their most ambitious adventure is about to begin. The starship Victoria will carry over 10,000 colonists to a new world outside the Solar System. The larger-than-life exploits of those colonists will become legendary. The colonists will build a new civilization, and the actions of a few individuals will become famous - and infamous - forever marking their new colony with the Founder Effect.

The only bad thing is the front cover!

What a great book - took me by surprise. Colonisation is the theme but having several contributors gives a varied perspective and makes for a satisfying result. One of the best sci-fi audiobooks that I've listened to in a long time.

Colonisation Sci Fi at its best

Absolutely loved this audio book, it is a collection of stories about humans leaving the solar system, their adventures on the way to their new home and their struggles to settle and establish a colony. it is believable and so entertaining , totally recommend to any Sci Fi fan.
The performance of the narrators was great too , nicely done !
