BY MILLION COPY-BESTSELLER JASPER T. SCOTT
A DEADLY MISSION ON AN UNCHARTED WORLD RIDDLED WITH ANCIENT SECRETS
On his last job, Cade Korbin lost his ship, lost his credits, and barely escaped with his life, but it’s not over. His enemy is still out there, nursing a decades-old vendetta that has yet to be quenched. Making matters worse, his guild is coming after him for breaking their rules.

Cade desperately needs credits and somewhere to lie low for a while. To that end, he takes a job on an uncharted world, code-named Nexus, with his new partner. The mission is to rescue a team of missing researchers and to recover the alien artifacts they went searching for.

But Nexus proves to be even deadlier than its Class Five hazard rating would suggest, and Cade soon realizes that he’ll be lucky to escape with his life, let alone accomplish the mission.

Yet there is a danger on Nexus that goes far beyond hungry alien monsters: a terrifying menace has been waiting there for untold eons to emerge.

And Cade Korbin is just about to unleash it.

WOW! I didn't see that coming

Two already warring human civilizations are trying to go for the same ancient artifacts on a planet that is populated by monsters both aerial and dirt-bound that can swallow a man whole. They arrive at the spot where you just made the mistake of generating any kind of EM energy. You can't see or hear them coming because the appear right next to you through a rift in time/space. If that isn't bad enough there's a toroid shaped orbital station that is unassailable, armed with advanced weaponry, and is uncannily accurate with it's weapon systems. It is defending a particular segment of the planet that is believed by the humans to be the repository of the technology of the Priors an ancient civilization that's a million years old and at least that long gone. Whichever group can get that tech will win the war, but there is an extremely high cost in human lives to get anywhere near it. Skillfully woven into this frightening tale are examples of familial love, twists and turns in the thinking that finally leads to a very surprising villain. Please do not read this before going to bed. I guarantee you will not go to sleep easily.

Compelling and frightening

Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2021

Not like the first book at all. The first story was suspenseful and full of action. This was, also, but was over the top about half way through. From the forced recruitment to the fire fight to get to the objective, it was full of action and strategy. After the objective was achieved, it became suspenseful and scary, almost like the Aliens movie. Everything has a double meaning! Cade, as usual, was resourceful and found incredible ways to resolve problems. I am amazed at how much was revealed in the ending! Truly incredible story telling and amazing plotting. Thank you for this compelling and frightening story Jasper Scott!

Not your grandfather's bounty hunter

Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2021

Verified Purchase

Okay, this book is weird. The author wants us to get introspective about what is appropriate killing and what is not. There's the old Nuremburg issue of whether killing because of an order from your superiors is righteous or not. What if the person doesn't really die? I disagree with the author, but there is no good answer. So we start with a busted mission. Then we have to escape. There are players whose motivation are unknown. There are physical limitations on what can be done, and there are unexpected consequences. The book is essentially boring for the first half. We find a Xeno, but it's not very interesting, and it's not very smart. We get rescued from an uncharted planet under unexplained and unusual circumstances. We go for a grand invasion using the resources of people we just met, and they say yes?!? It's a bust so we get captured?!? We're off for a suicide mission, but things are strange. Then they get stranger. Everybody stabs everyone in the back, so we all become friends. All except for our old weird friend who reneges on his promise. What's up with him? No one but the Orange robot knows for sure.

Entertaining, if far-fetched

Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 2021

Verified Purchase

This 2nd book in the Cade Korbin series is certainly better than book 1. Still a lot of violence, but now it more focused and not deliberately sadistic. The story line is decent, but more than a little incredulous. Even as SciFi, it's kind of hard to follow any logic within the story.

This book does have quite a few grammatical errors. These are not proofing-mistakes, they are clearly (and repeatedly) poor sentence structure. When I see things like "…me and Joe made a dash for…" it just jolts me. Once and I'd let it be, but this happens regularly.

It is entertaining. The story makes for a decent, and fairly light read.

Absotively Awesome

Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2021

This story was definitely an action packed, topsy turvy Thrillride from beginning to end. The characters are endearing and believable with Brighten being my favorite extra-terrestrial pet since Flinx's dragon Pip. I am going to preorder the next one right now and you should read this one and see why.

A riveting story of the trails of Cafe Korbin!

Alien Artifacts kept me on the edge of suspense the entire time I was reading. It kept me intrigued in every page. Never expecting the sequence it was directing me. I could not put it down until I settled for night!
What can I say but we'll DONE! Eagerly awaiting the next chapter in Cafe's journey.

Even better than the first book!

Reviewed in the United States on March 10, 2022

Verified Purchase

Man, I was interested in the world of Cade Korbin from book 1 already, but somehow this one blew me away completely. Scott is fantastic at creating these complex but understandable webs of mystery surrounding our space-faring protagonist, and this book is just another example of it

Not 20% of the way through, I was completely captivated. The premise of this story seems simple, but those aforementioned webs of mystery are interwoven in such a way that I was on the edge of my seat trying to puzzle it all out.

I almost wished that this was the book to start off the series, but the universe establishment done in book 1 is absolutely necessary to really feel the weight of the stakes in book 2. And the first book was already fantastic, so theres no real loss here

Regardless, Im looking forward to what I'll find in book 3!

Jasper Scott delivers another page turner

Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2021

I read most books for my enjoyment. Sometimes a few business books but most are fictional books. After a few years of random kindle books I have started to be more picky. Especially I listen to myself by noticing if I read books to pass some time or if I find time to read.
The first part of the Cade Corbin Chronicles was really good (and you probably agree on since you are reading this review) new ideas and aspects of his world creation which gave me several twists in the story I did not see coming.

This second book in the installment continues the story but in another direction. For me the setting and flow of events was surprisingly different but still just as enjoyable.
The book was for me read in surprisingly few days due to he urge I had to read it. Especially if you have enjoyed the first part getting this part is a no brainer.
(spoiler alert; he survived) I really look forward continue follow Cade Korbins continued adventures in the third book.

Cade Korbin is progressing into a fantastic character..

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 18, 2021

Verified Purchase

flies along nicely and continues in the same vain as book one the bounty hunter, Its clear (to me at least) there are far more layers to strip back from the main Protagonist Cade Korbin, and book 2 starts this process bring back a few surprises from his past and resolving a few questions along the way.. The story line, as always with Jasper contains a twist or 2 along the way but not entirely unexpected and this in itself sets up for the book 3 very nicely, I am hoping Jasper expands the storyline into one off stories Like Adrian Tarn or Dirk pitt style but kept closely to the plot outlined in the first 3 books, this could be set for the bad ass version of Buck Rodgers and for me I can't wait to see what trouble he get into in future books, Keep up the great writing Jasper T Scott..

A tale spanning the universe with strong characters and an imaginative plot with the story ending on a mysterious planet guarded by ancient technology. A must read, can't wait to start the next book in the series and I wont.

Better than the first episode, and that was really good. Quite suspenseful as the plot was only slowly revealed, and a nice ending.
