THEY ARE COMING. THE COUNTDOWN HAS BEGUN.The discovery of objects approaching from Jupiter orbit sets humanity on edge, sending cities into panic. Most is unknown, but thanks to the popular Astral space app, everyone knows the few facts the government has tried to hide:The objects are enormous spheres numbering in the dozens, maybe hundreds. They are on an approach vector toward Earth … and they … vector toward Earth … and they will arrive in six days.
Entrepreneur Meyer Dempsey is in New York, realizing the time has come to act on all the preparations he’s made without ever consciously knowing why.

This book is an excellent read with some unforseen developments. !
Not the typical story of aliens arriving – I had to jump into the rest of the series – and the twists kept occurring – lots of fun to read the set
Not real imprested
Alien invasion is a genre I love. Trying to survive to get to their safe place was the one consuming goal. Well done and all too realistic. It was a bit of a cliffhanger but I plan on reading the rest of the series.
Somewhat silly and unrealistic.
I loved the first book and will buy the rest.
I enjoyed this book very much. I’m looking forward to completing the entire series.
popcorn book–not serious and don’t overthink it.
A fun read
This was not what I expected based on the title. I kept reading hoping that it would get to the invasion details. But it is well written and has well developed characters.
He has sensed for a long time that something BIG is coming, and has done everything he can to prepare in advance to keep himself and his family safe in a stronghold in CO. Now, alien ships will arrive in less than a week, and they have to travel from New York City to CO. The plane they intended to take is grounded, so they plan to drive instead, …
In places it was a little long winded but you still couldn’t wait to see what happened next.
so much ‘out of the main plot’ writing. Was skiping whole paragraphs to get back to the main story.. irrelevant filling of pages
Good read with a very masculine point of view.
A fun book. I liked the characters and cared what happened to them. Events portrayed seemed realistic should that scenario occur. I do NOT like the fact that this is an eight book series. It seems to be trendy to make these long series. I enjoyed this book but will NOT buy seven more books to find out what happens.
Well written
Tedious
Good story wish the word smithing matched
Throughly enjoyed this book in the main but there are parts that require a suspension of belief and the interaction between characters can be a little cheesy??
I’m hooked, I will definitely read while series.
