Time Bomb: A space opera adventure (The Ungovernable Book 3) Kindle Edition

4.6 out of 5 stars 195 ratings

Someone’s hunting the Ungovernable. And they’re not going to stop until every one of the crew is dead.

When an enemy from ex-smuggler pilot Jez’s past reappears, determined to extract revenge, the crew of the Ungovernable have two options: fight, or run. But when a hyperjump gone wrong leaves the Ungovernable crippled, her weapons down and her cloaking disabled, their options become scarce indeed. As they scramble to repair the ship with rapidly-dwindling supplies and even more rapidly-dwindling oxygen, their pursuers are inexorably closing in. And if they’re going to survive, each of the crew will have to confront dangerous secrets from their past, before those secrets come back to destroy them.

Time Bomb is the third book in R.M. Olson’s science fiction space opera series The Ungovernable. With a crazy, close-knit crew, plenty of humour, and loads of action, Firefly meets Ocean’s Eleven in this fast-paced, kick-ass, wickedly fun series.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

R.M. Olson writes feel-good space opera featuring diverse casts, found families, and loads of action. R.M. has ridden the Trans Siberian railway, jumped off the highest bungee jump in the world, gone cage-diving with great white sharks, faced down a charging buffalo bull, and knows how to milk a goat. Currently they reside in Alberta, Canada with their four children, three cats, and a dog the size of a small bear. R.M. goes hiking and skiing more often than they probably have time for, eats more chocolate than is probably good for them, and reads more books than is probably prudent.

    Pilot Jez and the rest of the crew of the Ungovernable are being hunted. After several attacks, the ship is crippled and they are scrambling to find parts for repairs, as well as being left with a limited supply of oxygen and supplies. Throughout the story, the crew is struggling with one misfortune after another, and it looks like their options are running out and they may not make it. But working together, they become closer than ever, and find out just how much they’ve learned to care about each other when trouble strikes. At one point it looked like the crew was going to split up, there were issues with each other and they all couldn’t seem to get along. But there’s nothing like adversity to get people thinking about survival and making it work, rather than fighting over petty arguments. It looks like they are all tighter than ever, now that they know what they’re fighting for, and the next book should be another great adventure.

    I like the character development and the sci-fi space western style. Looking forward to more books in the series. Enjoy!

    Further building and forcing the crew to work together under life and death circumstances again, showing the technology and more skills and backgrounds. I'm enjoying Jez and want to get more than a glimpse at her past.

    Honestly, I'm hooked to the series. Great found family. Finished the first book on a whim on a flight. It hooked me so well, I grabbed the next two that same day. A great blend of characters, emotion, and action

    It seemed the characters were too odd and predictable. Now though I’ve become hooked on this series and yea I’m going to read the next one too.

    My husband & I love this series. There is almost more action than I like, but the characters pull me in. The warmth and family feeling that is developing within this team is my favorite (favourite?) part. I like also that the series has a conclusion. I don't know what the conclusion will be but I'm counting on happy. Thank you for sharing your imagination with us.

    The best teams are created by pressure, just like diamonds. Masha and the group she has assembled deal with intense and continuous challenges. Another great chapter in the saga. Starting the next book in the series soon.

    This book is SO GOOD. A "bottle episode" of a story where literally everyone will die unless this team can work together. Not to mention a romance I've been shipping this whole time finally heating up!!! *squeeeee* I cannot WAIT for the next book!!!

    Been a while since I've found an author who could totally get me absorbed in a world, laugh and cry just with their words.
    This series is exceptional and I am thoroughly enjoying it.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 3, 2020
    Having read the first two books in this series using my Kindle unlimited account I had to purchase this the third book in the series.
    A fascinating series of characters developing throughout the books and with plenty of room for future books which I will look forward to. If you like a good science fiction adventure story with strong characters I recommend both this book and of course the earlier ones in the series.
