Koinobi Trilogy, Book 1

By: Reid Minnich

Narrated by: Benjamin Cole

How far would you go to help a parasitic insect from the stars?

Tweeskzaht nudges human civilization and technology forward from the shadows. Unaware of the war in the stars above it, Earth is in the cross-hairs of both sides. To save her adopted home, she must reveal herself to a small band of humans. Will Mike's self-sacrifice, Kindra's cunning, and David's intelligence be enough to save Earth from becoming a hunting ground?

Surprisingly Good

Took a bit to start, and got going and never slowed down. I'm almost done with book 3 and don't want it to end. I hope there is more to come.

A Fantastic Science Ficton Adventure

This book understands that importance of science in science fiction. it's a fantastic adventure staring interesting and complex characters, well thought out alien species which are significantly different from humans.

the narrator for the book was fantastic, and was able to make it very clear who is speaking at what times. he has a good sense of pacing, when to slow down or speed up to stay within the scene.

overall a highly recommended book for all science fiction fans, who have wanted something in the same realm as Star Trek but with the human condition of today.

a new twist on a saturated genre

good listen all the way through. was different than most sci-fi's I have read and I appreciated that. the narration was great. it's worth the credit!

was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Challenging instinctual responses to the strange

This is a well-written YA story that lays out the advantages of not responding to the strange or unusual as if it were an automatic threat. The author uses a symiotic insectoid alien with a sweet and generous nature to drive the point home. The idea of having an alien bug living inside you is instinctively revolting to us (I think I can speak for the human race, here!), but not all our instincts are useful once we’re past hunting and gathering.

We often seem hardwired to respond to the unusual as if it were dangerous, and this book illustrates how we must rise above our evolutionary instinctive settings to behave in a civilized manner with others.

I received this free audiobook and voluntarily left this honest review.

A well written novel

The book as a vary good overall good approach to creating; an atmosphere, intelligently aliens, character motivation, and excellent world building. The characters views and motives are vary well designed made not are not blatant, creating a vary interesting what will they do next feel.

I would highly recommend this for anyone who is a Science fiction fan.
