Five Tribes

Course of Empire Series, Book 2

By: Brian Nelson

Narrated by: Bradford Hastings

Countdown to Doomsday

The year is 2026. The US military has a new weapon in its arsenal: an intelligent life-form so versatile that it can not only create a new generation of weapons but can become a weapon itself - entering a host’s body to manipulate (or kill) them. Admiral James Curtiss is tasked with deploying the new weapons, first in Cuba, then Venezuela, then China. But the news of the military’s breakthrough has gotten out and there are menacing forces trying to steal it.

What’s more, a single man has somehow harnessed the new power and has become something more than human - godlike and seemingly indestructible. He is known only as the Inventor, and he has a warning for humanity: abandon the new technology or the human race will face extinction. It’s a countdown to doomsday. But humanity’s final fate may be decided in the most unlikely of places: among the primitive tribes of the Kalahari Desert where a top secret military mission has just taken an unexpected turn.

Great sequel!

Be sure to start with the first book, "The Last Sword Maker."

Seamless follow on the the first book and a continuation of the same story. I am anxiously awaiting the third book!!

Top Notch Scifi

Very good performance and a great story. I truly enjoyed the first book and this book took it all in a new direction while maintaining personalities of the characters. I am excited for the next in the series.

Good sequel

This is a great sequel to an, so far amazing series I cannot wait for the next one! At least I hope there’s a next one with that cliff hanger

Five tribes

Wow...this audio book certainly had action, mystery, sci fy, and war enough for several books!! I enjoyed this and was continuously surprised by the turn of events.

Fascinating read!

Fascinating perspectives of political and cultural concepts in science and technology affecting ancient and future civilizations. I will read again and wait for next book to read more.
