About this listen

Titan's war for freedom rages in the shadows. But to claim it, they'll need a leader.

Kale Drayton knows his place. As a Ringer born on Titan, he's used to keeping his head down and his mouth shut--no matter how much the Earthers abuse him or his own kind berate him. So, when he's caught stealing from a wealthy merchant, he's lucky to be sentenced to low-paying maintenance work on a gas-harvesting ship instead of life in a cell... or worse.

But when his mother is quarantined, Kale finds himself backed into a corner. To pay for her medicine, he needs money--the kind of money he'll never make sweeping floors and cleaning ships. When he receives a mysterious offer asking him to do a simple job in exchange for his mother's treatment, Kale takes a chance once more. All he must do is upload a program onto his employer's ship and all of his problems will disappear.

What starts as a straightforward smuggling gig soon reveals its shattering repercussions. The people who hired Kale are more dangerous than he suspected -and he's more important to them than he ever could have imagined.

Grab the exciting sequel to Titanborn, which will transport you to the other side of the conflict on Titan, and the Ringers' fight for independence.

Critic reviews

“A relentless sci-fi thriller with characters that leap off the page and a chilling ending that will leave you breathless.” (Nicholas Sansbury Smith, USA Today best-selling author of Hell Divers and the Extinction Cycle series)

“Bruno uses skillful worldbuilding and rising tension to construct a fast-paced, action-packed tale of the far future.” (Publishers Weekly)

Most relevant

Titan's Son, formerly titled Ice to Ashes, does not follow on from where Titanborn finished. instead, it overlaps with, and interweaves into, that also excellent story providing depth and greater understanding by, in effect, giving the 'other side'..A young man, a Ringer and former thief, desperate for cash to provide good quarantine conditions for his sick mother, is recruited mysteriously to take a package aboard an old gas harvester ship on which he had worked for the previous two years. Who had requested this he didn't know, nor could he tell what was in the package or why he was to deliver it. But he needed the credits desperately ...

Beautifully written, this book is a joy, exciting, with good characterisations of people to care about. Rhett Bruno has become one of my favourite authors on the strength of this book alone. Highly recommended as, too, is the also stand alone companion story, Titanborn.
New edition, New name, New format: audiobook.
Titan's Son, is still as thrilling and vibrantly exciting as the first time I read it many months ago. In fact, it's even better with the excellent narration of R.C.Bray breathing even more life (if that is possible) into the already well developed characters with individual voicing for each. He also reads the story to perfection, his gentle voice following the tensions of the text and the excitements as they occur without taking anything away from the beauty of Rhett C.Bruno's writing. A perfect pairing of Author and narrator.

This time, I have read the first two books of the trilogy in the order given ( this being book two) but it still remains the same as before - read book one, Titanborn, first, or this one. doesn't matter. Both illuminate the other and yet stand completely apart. But whichever order you choose, if you have any fondness for science fiction, or strong characters in an uncomfortable world emotionally stretched almost to the limit, or excitement, thrills, adventure, and imaginative writing, read them.
Just read them.
