The Terran Accord: The Awakening
When a disillusioned former Space Force test pilot Gavin Trent tries to get away from life's responsibilities for awhile, he wasn't expecting a visit from an alien emissary named Jay. And he certainly wasn't expecting to learn that an ancient interstellar civilization had been watching humanity for decades. Not to conquer. Not to interfere. But to decide its place in the galactic community.
Earth stands at a crossroads. Divided. Armed. Suspicious of itself. And far closer to extinction than anyone realizes.
An alien diplomat, from an ancient race that has been observing Earth for a millennium, offers Gavin something a starship, knowledge centuries beyond human science, and the chance to unite a fractured world before it tears itself apart.—or attracts someone that will do it for them.
But Earth doesn't want to be united. Nations guard their sovereignty with iron fists. Ancient faiths see the alien presence as blasphemy, prophecy, or both. Armed militias rise against the very idea of a shared future. And Gavin's hand-picked crew must somehow cut through centuries of hatred, fear, and pride to prove that humanity is capable of more than it has ever shown.
It's an up-hill battle—and then the stars deliver a new threat.
An planetoid on a collision course with Earth. Not a natural disaster. Not an accident. An engineered message. Gavin and his crew find themselves racing against extinction while fighting the very people they're trying to save, forced to ask the hardest question of
*Can a divided species rise to meet its greatest hour—or is it already too late?*
The Terran The Awakening is a sweeping, character-driven science fiction epic about first contact, human stubbornness, and the agonizing hope that we might still deserve the future we've been offered.

I know this author personally. So who is going to be more critical than your baby sister? Sci-fi is not my genre. And I am a huge book snob. I will not read a certain famous author because I think they write like a fifth grader. If I have to edit a book as I read I’m out. But this book is amazing. I’m shocked at how well it is written. Who knew my older brother could crank out such an interesting story. I loved it and I can’t wait to read the second book. Now, if only I could get him to write about serial killers and murderers. 🤣🤣

I’m not usually a sci-fi reader, but I really enjoyed this book. It was very well written and easy to keep up with what was happening. The plot was believable, with an opening for a second book. I look forward to more in the series.
