Predators of Eden

Horizon Alpha, Book 1

By: D. W. Vogel

Narrated by: Jay Benson

"There's plenty of jet fuel for the imagination. The pace is fast, the stakes are high, and the safety of no one is guaranteed." (John Burris, author of Brothers)

“We never would have come here if we’d known.”

Two hundred years ago, the great Ark Horizon Alpha escaped a doomed Earth and went searching for a new home. The passengers landed on Tau Ceti e expecting paradise, but instead they discovered a planet stuck in its own version of the cretaceous period. The humans’ one defense against the dinosaurs ravaging the planet is an electric fence, built from the remains of the shuttles that brought them there.

But Eden base has only days of power left.

With most of the adult men dead, rookie soldier Caleb Wilde and his unit of teenage boys leave the electric fences of Eden in search of a reactor core lost deep in the jungle.

The last remnant of the human race waits behind the electric fence for their return. The dinosaurs wait, too - for the electricity to die and the feast to begin.

"I've often dreamt of trying to survive on a new planet and pitting myself against nature. My dreams were never this chilling, nor the ending as thrilling. I highly recommend this high energy adventure and would place it between Isaac Asimov and Arthur C Clark." (Reid Minnich, author of Koinobi trilogy)

YA but a good story

This book was entertaining and easy to follow. Really appreciate the plot, the author and the narrator. Good job guys 👍

Pretty Good As A YA Story

I’ll read the next one when/if it is published. It was an enjoyable break from my usual fare. I will expect the next one to be even better.

Loved it!

Exciting and imaginative! Kept me on the edge of my seat! I normally listen to two or three audiobooks at a time, but I listened to this one straight through.

This is young adult but I love it.

I bought this thinking it would be guns blazing, but it's not. It is a good story of a teenager becoming a man. There are a lot of dinos, wolves, and other scary monsters. This book could have been 15 hours long, had the author wanted to fill our minds with her version of this world.

If you want a little science fiction, not a lot of technical jargon and a break from your regular reading, this is it. It was like a vacation for my brain. Anyone 10-100 can take a break and walk in the woods with this character. Can't wait for the next one!

Wow just wow but not good

I have no idea how this got a high rating. Worst performance and story I have ever wasted my time listening to. Just wow. You’d have to work hard to write such a trite cliche piece of fiction.
