What a great start to an action packed Sci-Fi adventure series. The story is well thought out and well written. It has a cast of likeable characters that worked well with the plot and enough science to satisfy my inner nerd. A bit of fiction and a bit of science equals my idea of reading pleasure. 💙📖💙
