Star One: Neutron Star

By: Raymond L. Weil

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

It is the year 2044 on Earth. At the Farside observatory complex on the Moon, a startling astronomical discovery has been made. A survey for pulsars has found an x-ray source in a region of space where none has been detected before. Upon further investigation, they find that this x-ray source is just outside of the Solar System and is approaching at over 300 miles per second. The astronomers are paralyzed by what they have found knowing what its disastrous ramifications might be. A neutron star is approaching the Solar System. It appeared out of a small dense dust cloud that was shielding its approach. Armageddon has arrived; the star is on a trajectory that will take it through the center of the Solar System. Life on Earth will not survive its passing. The only hope for survival will be on the massive Star One space station at the Earth-Moon Lagrange point or possibly in Tycho City deep beneath the Moon’s surface. It will be a race against time to save a fraction of the Earth’s frightened population. A power struggle will erupt on Earth over who is to survive. On Star One and at Tycho City they prepare for the worst, unfortunately, the threat from Earth might be just as dangerous as the approaching neutron star. 102,000 words. This is the first of a two part story. Star One: Dark Star will be out in June.

All of them,, There was no killing in it, I did miss the tycho discovery it not in the readers is there a reason for that

nothing I loved all of them an wish that all of them were in Audible, think you for all the great reads

Well written but meandering and incomplete

The story is written very well, and stays interesting despite going on several descriptive side stories that I assume become relevant in the next book. There were a few things that threw me off- leading amongst them the repeated descriptions of women’s breasts and skimpy outfits- often after discussing the end of the world. Lastly- AI still can’t tell a story.

Overall, I appreciate the book. It’s written well and the story is engaging- but it’s clearly part of a larger story that isn’t completely told here

Boring and repetitive

The writing isn’t terrible. The plot slogs and takes a whole book to simply set a cardboard background for the what, supposedly, be interesting in the next book. I listened to the whole book wondering when it was going to get interesting
