Summary

Terry Clark grew up surrounded by his parent’s life’s work, the rescue and rehabilitation of cetaceans. Born just after first contact with the Galactic Union, he’s never known a time when aliens weren’t visiting Earth. At 10 years old, he had a normal life, until a visit from one of the aliens resulted in a ground-breaking discovery. The cetaceans have a developed and complex language...and it can be deciphered by the aliens’ translators.

When Terry’s father begins using alien implant technology to test the boundaries of the cetaceans’ language and society, though, he goes too far, and the fledgling world government becomes involved. Without warning, the scientists are labeled as criminals, and the cetaceans are scheduled for termination. In order to save the cetaceans, the researchers have to flee off-world with them.

In the Lupasha star system, Terry tries to begin a new life. While the world is ideal for the cetaceans, it’s difficult for their Human wardens. Even worse, the planet’s previous owners now want it back. As they don’t mind killing all the Humans in the process, Terry is trapped in a life or death struggle, which leads to a discovery that could change the course of humanity’s role in the galaxy.

Welcome to the Frontiers series, the first young adult collection set in the wildly popular Four Horsemen Universe.

Great Sci-fi Thriller

I enjoyed listening to this science fiction story. There are lots of twists and turns and the man narrating this was brilliant. I must recommend it.

Ad for libertarianism?

Very much a kids/young adult angle. Focus on an ethical problem as the crux was nice, but soon the book appeared to turn in to an ad for libertarianism. Very strange, and not great for young listeners. Did not finish

Best book, I ever listened to

This is a really good book. I listened to it 10 times I’m waiting until I get more credits so I can get the rest of the books but it was one of the best books I’ve ever listened to

Great concept badly written

Great concept but unfortunately written fr the perspective of a 10 year old. Story is slow and meandering and most of the content/story lines chosen are unfortunately puerile. However as mentioned the concept is brilliant, pity the storyline and characters were not better developed to grasp a wider more intelligent audience. suitable for a 9 -13 year old
