Summary

Searching for a new home....

The Galahad, a faster-than-light spacecraft, carries 50 scientists and engineers on a mission to prepare Kepler 452b, Earth's nearest habitable neighbor at 1400 light years away. With Earth no longer habitable and the Mars colony slowly failing, they are humanity's best hope.

After 10 years in a failed cryogenic bed - body asleep, mind awake - William Chanokh's torture comes to an end as the fog clears, the hatch opens, and his friend and fellow hacker, Tom, greets him...by stabbing a screwdriver into his heart. This is the first time William dies.

It is not the last.

When he wakes from death, William discovers that all but one crew member - Capria Dixon - is either dead at Tom's hands, or has escaped to the surface of Kepler 452b. This dire situation is made worse when Tom attacks again - and is killed. Driven mad by a rare reaction to extended cryo-sleep, Tom hacked the Galahad's navigation system and locked the ship on a faster-than-light journey through the universe, destination: nowhere. Ever.

Mysteriously immortal, William is taken on a journey with no end, where he encounters solitary desperation, strange and violent lifeforms, a forbidden love, and the nature of reality itself.

...he discovers the infinite.

Jeremy Robinson, the master of fast-paced and highly original stories seamlessly blending elements of horror, science fiction, and thrillers, tackles his most ambitious subject matter to date: reality itself. An amalgam of the works of J.J. Abrams and Ridley Scott, Infinite is a bold science fiction novel exploring the vastness of space and a man's desire to exist, find love, and alter the course of his life.

Terrible sci-fi

I was genuinely quite excited to read this as the opening premise of a disaster befalling a generation ship leaving a sole survivor sounds really interesting. Boy was I disappointed.

The first bad sign is that the back-story doesn't make any logical sense, and as more is revealed the less sense it makes. Then the author takes you through a plot with several large 'twists' but these are executed clumsily with no foreshadowing or dramatic buildup, so while they are a surprise they also lack any impact. The fact that these twists are often completely unbelievable doesn't help.

The main character is ok, he feels like a cross between the protagonists of Ready Player One and We are Legion (We are Bob), but he does do some pretty inexplicable things that aren't well explained and there is some really ham-fisted character building later on.

As science-fiction it's pretty terrible. I can live with magical technology but the universe is not internally consistent the and the author has a tendency to just invent and introduce some new piece of magic just when he needs it so it's full of 'deus ex machina'.

Overall the book feels like a low-budget Hollywood action film. There isn't any substance here and even the action manages to be dull.

R. C. Bray is great as always.

Press through to the end - skillfully written

About half way through this book I was ready to give the story 3 stars - too many inconsistencies and logical plot holes (you know - the ones that make you shout out). But I pressed on. Without giving spoilers the author has in fact managed to play with your sense of disbelief and bring you into the mind of the main protagonist, skillfully playing with your perceptions. Just when you start to think "hang on a minute" the narrative manages to distract or influence you into new avenues.

I am still not sure whether the narrative and plot techniques employed enable easy cover for sloppy plots and logical errors or whether that was always the intention to give you hints and whisps of clues. But at the end I felt like I really understood the mind of the main character and what they had been going through. The outcome / denouement was obvious in some ways but the author manages to keep you guessing and turning one way and the other. After all - what he proposes is entirely possible...

Insanely fast-paced!! Love it!!!! :)

It's not going to win any literary awards and... yes... there's holes in the story, but WOW! If you can imagine riding an insanely mad roller-coaster for 10 hours then you've got to listen to this. For sheer mind-bending, rip-roaring si-fi entertainment and narration from the amazing R.C.Bray this is must!

I’ve just had my mind blown

Absolutely outstanding performance by the ever amazing R.C. Bray,

Jeremy Robinson creates an amazing story of struggle, romance, success and loss and builds a perfect world, in which you can get enveloped in, leaving you asking yourself some of the same questions.

Absolutely amazing!

Thought provoking

Found this as listening my way through all of RC Bray’s audio performances. Loved it. Great premise, how do you live forever without going insane. Wonderfully performed by RC Bray as usual. Would totally recommend.

Fantastic

An incredible story spanning time and space! Although slightly predictable in some places it doesn’t take away from the fresh plot and fantastic voice acting. I didn’t want it to end!

This book got me hooked on Jeremy Robinson.

This was the second book I Listened to by Robinson (the first being NPC). While NPC left me Intrigued, Infinite well and truly dug its claws into me. There was something about the over arching premise of the story that reminded me of the film Passengers but past the first act the story takes an unexpected turn that left me unable to stop listening! The way Robinson paces this story it felt like I was listening to 4 sci-fi films back to back only with the ending leaving me wanting more, which apparently we will get in March as a sequal is in the works! Seriously if you like sci fi and good story telling buy this book you will not regret it!

Loved this story and didn't see the ending coming. Well read and escapism at its best.

A great adventure

Great original story. Narration was a bit monotone but was ok with the different characters.
