With the help of a command AI, the hole in the Daedalus has been fixed by Hazel and her friends. But in the process, they have antagonized the Yi, the aliens who are actually controlling the Daedalus. After a daring escape from the Yi, Hazel and her friends now must convince the people of the Daedalus villages and the village leaders that the Yi exist—and that they must fight back in order to survive. This proves tricky, as those in power don't want their authority challenged.
In order to produce proof of their dire situation, Hazel and her friends have to return to the forward section of the Daedalus to find another surviving command AI so they can find where the Yi are hiding and what their goal is. What Hazel and her friends discover is the terrible secret of the Yi, and what they have been doing on board the Daedalus for the last five hundred years.
The Captain's Daughter is a thrilling continuation of the story that unfolded in A Hole in the Sky, Peter F. Hamilton's first YA novel, that will appeal to all his legions of fans.

Listeners might expect a Jane Austen novel when they first hear Elizabeth Klett's elegant voice. But this is actually a sci-fi story, told from the point of view of 17-year-old Hazel. Hazel loves reading Austen--when she's not fighting aliens. Klett is energetic, with a hint of uncertainty, as Hazel rallies villagers to the cause. Hazel and her friends--who mostly have thinner voices to contrast with Hazel's commanding tones--are aboard the DAEDALUS, a spaceship that's been an Earth-like habitat for a roughly 900-year journey that is nearing its destination. Klett makes listeners feel Hazel's emotions--fear when aliens could be lurking or rage when she's attacking them. The audiobook immerses listeners in Hazel's world, paving the way for more to follow in this series. J.A.S. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine
