    • A wonderful, imaginative book so realistic you forget it is sci-fi
Rarely have a listened to a book that made me wish my hour-long morning commute wasn’t quite so short. I am not a sci-fi fan so when someone suggested I read Impact, I was fairly certain I would struggle to get into it. I was wrong. I purchased the audio-book version and by the end of chapter one, I was hooked. The characters are well developed and so personable and authentic they felt like new friends I wanted to find out more about. The science was quite technical, but I felt like the author did a pretty good job of explaining complex problems and their equally complex solutions without diving so deep as to lose those of us lacking the intellect of a NASA engineer. Mark Owen makes his imagined world seem so plausible and so relevant to our own, at times I forgot it was supposed to take place in the future. You do not have to love sci-fi to love this book. You just need to love a good story that leaves you waiting anxiously for the sequel…… and wish you didn’t have to wait for some future person to invent “wine sticks”. ... show more

    • Good writing, good premise, good characters.
While I am not a sci-fi reader- I think this is written well. I like the characters & their conflicts & triumphs. It’s a good reminder for us about friendships and commitment. Good exploration of doing things for the good of all & our future on this planet we call home. Interesting that many of the events are not that far fetched for current world issues. Author definitely has set this up for a series and possible movies. ... show more

    • Space debris, asteroids, and alien attack...oh my!
I spent the entire night reading this book. Yes, it is very technical, and I felt like the dumbest person in the room compared to these characters, but the story fascinated me. Initially a North Korean shuttle pilot shows off his piloting skills to frighten Japanese ISS (International Space Station) crew, and the net result was that he was not the hot dog he thought he was. He crashes into the station and starts a chain of death and destruction. The debris from the damaged station orbits the earth and destroys satellites as it travels, adding to the debris cloud in a Kessler-type debris storm. There are survivors on the ISS, but they won't be able to last long. Re-supply for both ISS and Moon Base Veritas is impossible as long as the debris storm continues. Ultimately ISS is destroyed by the debris. A supply ship, assembled from every relic still held by space museums and a few other bits and bobs, is destroyed by the debris on its attempt to get relief to Veritas. The entire satellite array overhead is destroyed, impacting earth industry, communications, security, and more. Online banking, GPS navigation, and ever so much more goes away for the time being. Somebody has to figure out how to clear the debris cloud that is whirling around earth like the Great Pacific Gyre. The Pan National team of scientists originate from a humanitarian effort to rescue orphans worldwide, place them in foster homes and educate them, giving them the goal of improving humanity's way of life, building futures that these adults make real. These Lost Boys and Girls are now a tribe of their own, clannish, but effective. Each of them select a specialty, and one has been enthralled with mining the asteroids all of his life. This has to be set aside until the Kessler cloud is solved. Or does it? Essentially this is a story about problem solving. The problems keep getting bigger and bigger. I can't wait for the next volume, and wish I had discovered this book a year from now so that I could move right into the next stage of the story. ... show more

    • Great science fiction, rooted in current facts
The story kept me captivated from start to finish. It is fast paced with plenty of twists. I enjoyed the characters very much as I've not run across protagonists quite like these - they're unique and interesting. And with the scifi story not so far removed from today's science facts and today's geopolitical realities there's some very thought provoking things to mull over. All together quite enjoyable. ... show more

    • Intriguing Scenario
An engaging story with likeable characters, told with creativity and imagination. Somewhat technical but still kept my interest to the end. Looking fotward to the next book!

    • Interesting characters, gripping story
Pithy philosophical statements, many from the journal of Dr. Kohlrabi Trust, which serve as epigraphs to each chapter, balance the countdown to impending doom in Impact. I found a welcome rhythm in taking a moment to ponder these thought-provoking statements before jumping back into the story of the top secret, technical problem-solving efforts to keep a rogue comet and it’s attending space debris from careening toward and obliterating Earth. The characters taking on this problem range from creatively brilliant to a tad socially stunted to efficiently strong (I want Laura Jasper to be my president!) to wisely collaborative. I grew attached to many of the characters, and hope to see them in sequels. I hope NOT to see the crisis portrayed in Impact, but was amazed how close to scientific reality some of this science fiction is, thanks to the author’s notes at the end of the book. ... show more
