About this listen
Captain Sass Collier can’t die. A century ago, the Colony Corps carried her away to the stars. Because Earth was doomed.
She returns with tech advances from the colonies, hoping to restore the one best planet for humanity, and save isolated pockets of desperate survivors.
Instead her motley crew from the boonies finds not one, but three surviving worlds — Earth, Luna, and Mars. And she’s with the invading aliens.
Her homecoming starts with a bang.
The Northern League tyrannizes Earth now. They capture Sass and her ship separately, to hold them hostage against each other.
Can Sass save her crew from its most powerful foe ever – the mother world?
Join Thrive’s family of misfits for hard science fiction with rivets, and fresh page-turning space adventure! Book 1 — new to Thrive? Start here! The series is now complete.
Suggested for those who love the ensemble found family of Firefly and Lindsay Buroker's Star Kingdom, plus the AI possibilities in Dennis E. Taylor’s Bobiverse.

AI Narration
The story seemed to be very good, but the A. I that was narrating didn't do different voices for different characters and lacked any real emotion during events, where emotion would be normal?.

Stories Worth Hearing
Very interesting stories involving space colonists returning to the Sol system. I was able to enjoy even though I had not heard chronologically earlier stories apparently available by the same author. It has the prefunctory gender and orientation inclusions for modern novels, and though they don't add much to the story they also don't detract from it. The related elements that explore the boundary between biological and artificial life do add a lot to the story however. The virtual voice does fairly well with this story. Not too many distractions there.

interesting story
AI narrator is difficult to follow as it doesn't distinguish which character is speaking as humans narrators do.

A fun story hidden by terrible narration
The narration was really bad - it makes the story hard to follow and takes away from what might have been a really enjoyable experience
