Under Darkness

By: Jasper T. Scott

Narrated by: Ben Jaeger-Thomas

From the USA Today best-selling author of Dark Space... a series of unrelated stand-alone sci-fi novels; no sequels and no cliffhangers

The sun vanished and darkness fell in the middle of the day, and then the meteors began to fall....

Bill Steele is in the trenches, trying to survive in the competitive world of luxury vacation resorts on the island of Kauai. Today is a particularly bad day; the water main burst and his guests are demanding refunds and promising bad reviews. In the middle of this, a dark shadow falls over the island. It’s not a lunar eclipse, because Bill can clearly see the crescent moon shimmering on the water. This is something else.

Moments later, the meteors begin to fall. One of them lands in the water just beyond the resort. Everyone flees screaming to their rooms, expecting a wall of water to follow, but the tsunami never arrives. Bill and his daughter watch the news from the relative safety of their third-floor suite. The anchorman is fleeing from his hillside vantage point with his cameraman in hot pursuit. Their muffled screams are the last thing anyone hears before the signal is lost....

If you liked the movies Alien and Independence Day, you’ll love Under Darkness.

very exciting

I enjoyed this story because it was really good and it came to an end. so I don't have to keep spending credits on another story. that is good. the narrator was good , sometimes I would get confused with specific characters but nothing really bad. the narrator did a fine job.

slow and no real substance

there are better books out there about first Contact and alien invasion this was just a short story with weak characters. i expected better

Nice surprise

I am pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed this book. I am looking forward to reading more of this authors book.

Great story. Better than Independence Day

I really enjoyed this novel. Only marked it down because the narrator did not know how to pronounce irradiate and nuclear, Both important words in the story.

GOOD BOOK

I had no expectations on this book. I really knew nothing of the book or author. I bought in on a whim because it was on sale. After listening to it I was glad I bought it and would have been happy if I had paid full price. I will be getting more from Jasper T. Scott since this book kept my attention all the way through (that's a difficult thing to do).
