Why read it?
1 author picked The Concordia Deception as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book fits squarely into my ‘realistic space settlement’ wheelhouse. Establishing a colony lightyears from Earth will be hard…really hard. Desperation is a good motivation for early settlers; you’ll find plenty in these pages. Besides natural disasters (floods, predators, disease), our fearless heroes must fight themselves.
Suspicion fuels a rift between the final generation of settlers born on the massive colony ship (the Gens) and the scientific experts who arrived in suspended animation (the Woken). Then, the Guardians arrive from Earth in a faster-than-light starship armed with advanced weapons and technology. They seem determined to save the colony at all…
