Podcast Description
In this podiobook: The Earth has gone silent. John Mark Ellis and the crew of the Sanson are sent to investigate. When they arrive, they find vast alien machines known as Clusters in orbit. Fearing the worst, they land and discover that the once overcrowded, polluted Earth has become a paradise of sorts. The problem is over half the population is dead or missing and the planet's leaders don't seem to care. As Ellis works to unravel the mystery, sudden gravitational shifts from the galaxy's center indicate something even worse is in the offing. Can Ellis save the galaxy from the heirs of the new Earth?"This is a well-crafted and thoughtful piece of science fiction. Highly recommended." Mark Anthony Brennan, Author, Editor and Publisher"In Heirs of the New Earth, David Lee Summers has come up with a creative vision of the future." S. Derrickson Moore, Las Cruces Sun-NewsPresented in association with LBF Books and Hadrosaur Productions.

Excellent ending to the trilogy!
If you haven't listened to the first two books you need to before this one. Don't let the dated clunky music in the first podcast put you off the story is worth listening to and the first book was recorded some time ago. The books just get better and demand your attention. All credit to authors who put their work out there for free.
