A Dubious Peace

Destiny's Crucible, Book 7

By: Olan Thorensen

Narrated by: Jonathan Davis

A planet’s future is about to take a dramatic turn.

Joseph Colsco, Mark Caldwell, and Heather Chen. Cast away by aliens onto a planet inhabited by humans, transplanted there by a second alien race thousands of years in the past, and for reasons unknown. Each of the three found themselves left naked on beaches scattered across the planet Anyar. Each struggled to survive as strangers amidst humans with technology centuries behind Earth’s. Each lived through years of adjustments, trials, dangers, and new lives beyond anything they could have imagined - or feared. The aliens who left them to fend for themselves wanted them far enough apart so they would never meet, assuming that as individuals they would have no impact on Anyar’s civilizations.

Only now they have come together, and nothing will ever be the same.

Should have been 50% shorter

This book dragged a bit with a lot of what I considered unnecessary details and subplots (if you can call going into excruciating detail about early industrial revolution era machining a plot). It only really perked up towards the last 10% of the book.

Awesome as always for Olan!

Another amazing opportunity to immerse into the world of Joseph Colsco. I prefer Olan's deliberate pace that allows for full immersion. I alway lose myself in this series. Great job once again!

I liked it, but...

it is slow and overly detailed. I did find myself skipping over parts. It is definitely not for everyone.

I like this series.

Story is interesting. I always look forward to the next book. The story keeps evolving well.

I couldn't stop listening!

A brilliant story who's characters you cheer for. I can't wait till the series continues.
