Story
In the not-too-distant future, a 21-member crew launches from Earth. Their mission: to establish a temporary colony on Mars. Little do they know that colony will become permanent–and the last stand of the human race. Because, without warning, every single person left on Earth simply...vanishes. Now, a thousand years later, the resources needed to sustain life are running out, and the very existence of the Mars colony is threatened. Humankind has only one option–to return to its home planet.

Great mix of mystery and time travel. Acting and ambiance are 5☆ too!

I wasn't sure what to expect when I sampled this book (? play ?). In the first few minutes, I knew the characters were great, actors were great, but even BETTER, the STORY was GREAT. Thank you for making my commute livable...

I like the premise, a generation ship meets up with the outcome of terraforming and genetic manipulation. Good character development especially the non-human characters.
I'd recommend the book. I'm tempted to get the next book in the series. Curious to see what's next. Isn't that the main reason we read 😎

He would avenge the traitorous plot against his noble family and would bring to fruition humankind's most ancient and unattainable dream.

Herbert's Words are still Awesome
Reviewed: 08-05-24
I hadn't re-read Dune in 15 years. Frank Herbert's story remains topical, with political messages as clear as those of John Steinbeck. I highly recommend the original words and story.
The audio actors were spot on.
Thank you ðŸ˜?♥ï¸?ðŸ˜?

The whole book was a good listen. The Epilog was beautiful, some of the best writing in the series. At least from my perspective, and undoubtedly that of T. Rex.

I really enjoyed these short stories.
Nothing complicated, but very well written.

The fun continues fighting America's wars on new and distant planets. I enjoy the new characters introduced in this issue, and have to admire Reach and the rest for their tenacity.
I admit to laughing out loud at least a few times in each chapter. Bodie is as much fun as Skippy, but different. All 80s all the time Rocks. Really.
I'm a rotten writer. Just know I really enjoy your books. I convince others they're great books,
