    About this audiobook

    In the year 2050, Earth makes first contact. By 2052, the war is over. We lose. 

    Soon after the generation starship Pioneer leaves Earth's orbit the ship is struck by a rogue asteroid. At first, Captain Tyson Grant believes the accident is minor. But when a by-the-book investigation of the damage ends in disaster, he realizes he was wrong.

    Very, very wrong.

    With the ship suddenly in grave danger, Tyson turns to Sergeant Joseph Cross and his team to bring the situation back under control. As the nature of the threat becomes more apparent, what once promised to be an uneventful journey across the stars descends into a desperate fight for survival. A fight that leads both Tyson and Joseph to realize that the greatest menace to humankind's future may not be the unknown, but themselves. 

    And some terrors are impossible to escape…

    If you like your sci-fi with a healthy mix of action, thrills, chills, plot twists, and characters you'll both love and love to hate, don't miss Exodus, the first novel in the Forgotten Starship series, a gripping new military science-fiction epic from million-copy bestseller M.R. Forbes.

    What our readers think

    Readers find this title to have an interesting scenario, but the writing and dialogue are lacking. The narrator's tone and inflections are distracting and make it difficult to fully enjoy the book. It feels like the narrator is trying to turn it into a sappy romance novel, which is frustrating for listeners. Overall, the narration takes away from the potential enjoyment of the story.

      The narrator is awful. He’s describing a battle with aliens in a tone of a bed time story. Completely pulls you out of the story.

      Great books, but the narrator for this series has some very strange inflections that would be better in romantic dialog than action sequences.

      The scenario is interesting. But the writing and dialogue are pretty cardboard. The narrator makes this a pretty rough listen though. He slows down and adds a downward inflection to the end of every sentence. It feels like he's trying to turn it into a sappy romance novel. Also he makes the captain sound like Zap Brannigan, monologuing at a far off horizon. Very strange and frustrating to listen to. I had to put it at 1.2x just to make it sound semi-normal.
