*I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Bray finds himself revisiting his past and family on Earth, after several years away, while hiding from the Foundation and trying to figure out what to do. He needs to get off Earth, but the Scientist brought his computer here. Bray saw it when leaving Alpha, Foundation's ship, and knows he needs to get it. The computer holds the information that could help save Gryffin from the malfuctioning implants, but he has to break into Foundation headquarters and get it then get off world. Bray will have to get word to others off-world about what Foundation has in weapons and man power that could destroy the place he's come to love like a home.

Keith is one amazing narrator. I love listening to his work. I looooove his voice. Okay, serious stuff now. He voices the characters with their own voice through tone, accent, and heart. The inflection he puts in each character brings them to life as their own whole person. Wow. I'm drawn into the story and forget he's a narrator because the characters come to life as individuals. That's amazing work!

Bray and Garvan. Yes ma'am. And thank you. These two characters were growing to be some of my favorite secondary characters in the previous two books. Well, they aren't the only ones. So to get the treat of them together and fighting to survive along with learning about their pasts, sign me up! I was thrilled to get into this story with them.

This story is more emotional with memories of the past, and Bray working through everything from when he was young through now. The feelings he felt toward his parents and his brother were those of a child that didn't see or know the whole story. Then, he has to tell his uncle and cousin about his family in the here and now. I was touched by what Morgan told Bray of his mother and father. Bray didn't remember or see the adult side of things and it was touching to hear about them.

We get the story from Bray's POV on Earth. We also get sections from One's POV. These sections are very, very insightful. One is on the council that's behind all that's going on. We get to learn about their new colony they were trying to build. I'm not 100% sure about this colony and where it's at, but I'm sure it's going to be something mentioned more in the future. And the biggest piece of information.... One's behind Garvan being put in prison. Garvan knows something that could destroy One and everything he's working for. This puts a target on Garvan's head. We also get scenes from Garvan's POV, which are important moments when things start moving in their plans.

I think I mentioned in the previous book that I was growing to like Garvan quickly. And I was right. I absolutely love him as a character. There are times he brings a huge smile to my lips with his personality and responses. They aren't the quick clip one lines, Garvan is more one to talk and leave the hint in what he says, almost a genuine sarcasm. I do love him. Garvan knows a lot about the scans and equipment used on Earth to identify people. He really grew on me in the last book, and I really like him here. This is part of what his job was before he went to prison. And his story! We learn his back story here too. Oh Garvan...

The beginning felt slower, because there wasn't much Bray could do on Earth. I had an idea but wasn't sure how he was going to take on a huge Foundation headquarters on his own. But we get personal with Bray and Garvan. Then it all comes together and we get to what the Hunters do best. Fight.

This is another wonderful addition to the Nomad series. I always enjoy the writing and narration in the biggest way. I look forward to more books!

Nemesis
Nomad Series, Book 2
By: K.A. Finn
Narrated by: Keith Michaelson
This is an audible book I requested and the review is voluntary.
I loved this series! I read them out of order and don't suggest it. I read book 3 and then went back and read 1 and 2. Now I have to re-read book 3 again so it will make more sense! Read in order! You will get more pleasure out of them. This is such an intense and action packed series with a kick-ass cyborg, a touch of romance, great characters that you can't help but hate or love, wonderful plot, and so much action that it is never dull. I love this series!!! Going to check to see if there is book 4!
The narrator is tops! Voices, emotions, keeping the flow going, all CHECK!!! Wonderful job!

Ares
Nomad, Book 1
By: K.A. Finn
Narrated by: Keith Michaelson
This is an audible book I requested and the review is voluntary.
I loved this book! Wow, I am hooked! I had listened to a later book but I needed to know the start and boy, it is amazing to know how all this started for Griffin. Wow. This is such a great sci-fi novel. Griff is taken as a 10 year old boy and experimented on and made into a cyborg. No one knows he is alive. All the others that is kidnapped and experimented on died, he is the only one that lived. Somehow he got away, his number is 35. It is so exciting. I don't want to say anything more about the book except that it is so exciting, lots of action, touch of romance, adventure, suspense, and a must read/listen.
The narrator was perfect! Wow, he does the women's voices so well, I was so surprised! Great job.

Perses
Nomad Series, Book 3
By: K.A. Finn
Narrated by: Keith Michaelson
This is an audible book I requested and the review is voluntary.
I didn't read the other two books so my advice is to read these books in order! I loved what I heard here in this one and wanted to kick myself for not having heard the others first. I was given some to get by without given a spoiler. (which I appreciate) What I did get in this book was an exciting read and the premise was awesome. I apparently missed a great deal of excitement in the first two which I hope to remedy. The world building was great, although I would hate to live there, and the characters were well developed. I want to continue this story because it sounds intriguing.
The narrator was excellent and could do all kinds of accents, voices, and kept the emotions and flow of the book going well.
