The official prequel to the hit video game Mass Effect: Andromeda. Lieutenant Cora Harper joins the Andromeda Initiative, a mission to send a fleet of colonization arks to the Andromeda Galaxy, each carrying a different council race. When key data is stolen by unknown parties, Alec Ryder personally recruits Harper to retrieve it before it can be used against the Initiative. If she fails, the Andromeda mission may be crippled before it begins. Harper is a human who has trained with the asari squad known as Talein's Daughters, under the direction of Nisira T'Kosh herself. Yet her training may not be enough when she discovers that she can trust no one-perhaps not even Ryder himself. Copyright (c) 2017 Electronic Arts Inc.

I can tell how much fun the writers were having with this thing: ranging across the galaxy, upending dastardly plots, engaging in shoot outs, snapping on the gear and letting 'er rip. Mass Effect: Andromeda--Initiation is a blast, for more than one meaning of the word.

a brisk, bracing romp involving artificial intelligence, unethical scientific research, espionage, and violent shenanigans...an absolute blast - Tor.com
I loved the exciting and intense action, which kept the book's pacing rapid and engaging. At the same time, we got a level of character exploration not typically seen in a lot of media tie-in novels - Biblio Sanctum
