As a proposal it’s good.

Great now fill in the gaps please. I am sure there is a full length novel in there. Thanks for the taste though.
It strikes me that there is a whole new series in there somewhere.

Great synopsis, well written and spoken

Hard to write a review, without giving away the plot - but this is a nice short story, with well defined characters, and a nice pace. The author has left himself quite a few follow and back fill opportunities - I hope he takes them.

Never trust the brouchere.

A very interesting tale, the conflict of interests between crew and colonists making for a rather blieveable dilemma that could indeed come true in humanities future.

Too short!!

Thoroughly enjoyed this, it should be the start or prologue to a full story or quest.

An enjoyable short listen!

If you like his other stuff, this is a great, if slightly predictable, short sci-fi tale!

Big big themes packed into this short story

The perfect length for an early night in. Themes include;
survival, conflict, and high press problem solving.
