Summary
From astronaut Tim Peake and best-selling author Steve Cole: exciting action-adventure rooted in cutting-edge space-age science and technology.
When Danny is kidnapped by Adi - who can run through brick walls and make cars drive on water - he realises that all humans are in danger. Adi is part of a super-advanced hive mind, the Swarm, which intends to protect the Earth from the environmental catastrophe caused by the human race.
Adi - Alien Digital Intelligence in the form of a girl - can bend the laws of physics and control digital data, but as a digital being, she wants to know what it's like to be human. Which is where Danny comes in.
But what exactly is the 'help' the secretive Swarm is offering? Can Danny and his friend Jamila help Adi stop the Swarm Agents and give humanity a second chance?
This audiobook also contains an exclusive interview with Tim Peake and Steve Cole where they discuss their inspirations for writing this book covering everything from important environmental issues, exciting tech and superpowers!

Great concept, story and narration
The narration was excellent, really natural movement between the characters' lines. I loved the concept, and the explanation by Tim at the end of how human long distance space travel might more likely happen was fascinating. I've learnt quite a lot from Tim and Steve through this story.
Favourite part was the narration of the binary message near the beginning. That really made me laugh. Brilliantly read!

I really I noted this book and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys the extra terrestrial and sci-fi
I think the title speaks for itself
Ok well it’s a 15 word minimum so
My opinions are to just say random stuff
