About this listen

In Conquest of the New World, the inevitable moment arrives—humanity’s century-long broadcasts into the cosmos are finally answered. But as an alien ship enters Earth’s orbit, claiming peaceful intent, the world is on the brink of unprecedented transformation—or catastrophe.

This brilliantly crafted thriller blends the geopolitical depth of Tom Clancy with the scientific precision of Arthur C. Clarke, creating a narrative that is as much about international power struggles and crisis management as it is about the philosophical and existential dilemmas of First Contact.

As governments scramble to control the narrative and scientists work frantically to decode alien transmissions, Samantha Torres and Adam Green, two researchers at the center of the discovery, realize this is more than just a scientific breakthrough. The arrival of extraterrestrial intelligence is an event that will shatter economies, upend religious institutions, and destabilize world powers. And as the world reacts with fear, hope, and suspicion, a terrifying possibility emerges—this may only be the beginning.

What makes Conquest of the New World stand out is its uncompromising realism. Every element is meticulously detailed, from the global stock market crashes and military posturing to the quiet, creeping fear that civilization may be too fragile for this moment. This is not just a novel about First Contact—it is a strategic, high-stakes game in which the fate of humanity hangs in the balance.

This book delivers in every way for fans of hard science fiction and near-future thrillers. With the relentless pacing and real-world detail of a Tom Clancy novel, combined with the grand cosmic perspective of Arthur C. Clarke, Conquest of the New World is both a cautionary tale and a gripping exploration of what might come next for humanity.
