Genesis (First Colony #1) – Ken Lozito
A mission gone wrong. Innocent lives have been lost.
Escaping wrongful imprisonment wasn’t something Connor had in mind, but being put into stasis aboard Earth’s first interstellar colony ship was something he couldn’t have prepared for.
For three hundred thousand colonists, the new colony brings the promise of a fresh start…a second chance. Connor might be the wrong man for the colony, but he’s the right man to see that it survives what’s coming.
A new world with new challenges, but the mission has changed.
If you loved Old Man’s War and Ender’s Game, you’ll love Genesis – First Colony , a new military science fiction series.
My Review of Genesis (First Colony #1)
(4 / 5)
This was an excellent beginning to what I have no doubt is going to be a fun and exciting series! I read that there are 5 books in total at the moment and I can’t wait to delve into the next one! I listened to the audio version on audible.
Connor is the leader of an elite military group. And he is having a rough time. First he is framed for the death of millions of people, then he is sneakily smuggled aboard a colony ship travelling to another star system… And then when he wakes up he discovers he has been asleep a VERY long time. Now he is stuck on an alien world, with a bunch of untrained colonists and there is something a bit strange happening on this planet, and there is some local wildlife that are not very friendly…
This was an extremely enjoyable book that I got through very quickly. It wasn’t too long and had heaps of action to keep me hooked.
I really enjoyed the premise. Most of the characters were awesome! I loved the group of cadets that Connor put together. I really enjoyed the whole universe that they put together. And that ending! The next one is going to be super exciting with a bunch of new characters! I can’t wait to see how the syndicate fits into future books too!
Did I enjoy the audio version?
Yes the narrator was excellent! His female voices annoyed me a little bit, but overall it was a really enjoyable performance!
Would I recommend Genesis?
Yes for any sci-fi fans or fans of military fiction set in sci-fi settings! It was really enjoyable and full of action and adventure! Can’t wait for the next one!
I purchased Genesis at my own expense at audible.com.
