Stefan changed the world when he discovered a technique that allowed people to hibernate. But when his wife suffers an overdose, he must try to find a way to wake her.

With Dauntless, Angela Cavanaugh has opened the door to an intriguing and thought-provoking new series. Her characters are well crafted, with clear and compelling motives. She also has a talent for constructing a scene. From the lavish, even absurdly decadent gala to the clinical futuretech of Keene’s laboratories, her settings have an authentic, immersive quality that puts the reader in the middle of the story. - LTS

Future life extension

I have liked everything I have read by Cavanaugh so far. I like the straightforward writing style, descriptive scenes, intuitive futurism, logic, strangeness and pace. The science fiction concepts are always solid and the structure drives me through the story anticipating the next revelation. This is just the beginning of a story but has done it's job, I want to continue.. Well done.

In reading Dauntless you believe that a medical means to immortality is right around the corner

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 19, 2015

Verified Purchase

In her latest foray author Angela Cavanaugh further explores societal elements through the metaphor of speculative fiction. Her writing reflects the raw energy of a new author and I was again taken by her fresh approach to older tropes. In reading Dauntless you believe that a medical means to immortality is right around the corner, and you also believe that only a few could benefit from such a technology. I look forward to the next in the series and recommend this story to fans of speculative fiction and adventure.

A thought-provoking introduction

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 17, 2015

Dr. Stefan Keene has invented a procedure that prolongs human life in ways previously thought impossible. After attending the annual gala preceding the treatment, he, his wife Ava, and the rest of the guests are placed in the hibernetic slumber that makes this miracle treatment possible. Upon awakening, however, Dr. Keene discovers something has gone terribly awry. Can he devise a cure before it’s too late? Or has the process he pioneered outpaced even him?

With Dauntless, Angela Cavanaugh has opened the door to an intriguing and thought-provoking new series. Her characters are well crafted, with clear and compelling motives. She also has a talent for constructing a scene. From the lavish, even absurdly decadent gala to the clinical futuretech of Keene’s laboratories, her settings have an authentic, immersive quality that puts the reader in the middle of the story.

More importantly, though, Dauntless raises important questions about the human condition and the ethical dilemma presented by medical advances designed to expand natural lifespans. At what point does prolonging life become playing god? What happens when the procedure’s creator is no longer capable of controlling the outcome? These questions and more will no doubt loom large as the series continues, and I for one look forward to discovering how it all plays out.

Excellent Start to a New Series

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 19, 2015

I received an electronic copy of Dauntless by the author, in exchange for an honest review. This Sleep Saga would fit perfectly into the realm of the television show "The Twilight Zone." Stefan is a doctor who has perfected a technique to allow people to hibernate and, therefore, slow the process of aging. When he is awakened after one such hibernation cycle, he finds that his wife Ava cannot be revived and is in a coma. Stefan embarks on a scientific quest for answers, with the hope that he can save his wife from perpetual sleep. Dauntless features a fast moving plot and great characterization. I was drawn into the world that Angela Cavanaugh created and found myself wishing that the book was longer. Although this was a quick read, it was definitely worthwhile. I look forward to reading the next segment of this series and recommend Dauntless highly.

Keep up the amazing work!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 25, 2015

Ms. Cavanaugh writes another great story, that really makes you think about what would happen if you could hibernate and stay young forever. Of course, the only people who can afford it are the rich. And they use it liberally....and yes, something goes wrong!
Ms. Cavanaugh's characters are well thought out and written. The scenes were well developed and full of imagination.
However, there were some errors that could have been fixed if a thorough read by a proofreader could of been done.
Keep up the amazing work!! I would like to thank Ms. Cavanaugh for a copy of this book in exchange for a honest review!

A most promising start to the series

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 19, 2015

I’ve just finished reading an early copy of Dauntless (Sleep Saga Book 1) by Angela Cavanaugh. This story tells how people react when they are given the ability extend their life through a period of hibernation, obviously only the rich can afford it. period of being young – if they can afford the price. In this case, only the very rich can afford the treatment and do so liberally. Until something goes wrong .....
The novel and concept is the first In an intriguing and thought-provoking new series. The characters are well crafted, especially the main character, with clear and compelling motives. The author is able to construct wonderful, elaborate scenes, some which are lavish and absurdly decadent, and others which are constructed in the clinical futuretech of Keene’s laboratories. The settings have an authentic, immersive quality and readers are drawn into the story.
Dauntless raises deep questions about the ethical dilemma of current and future medical advances designed to expand natural lifespans. At some point one must ask, are we playing god? What happens when the creator of this technology loses control of the outcome? is no longer capable of controlling the outcome? These questions and more will no doubt loom large as the series continues, and I for one look forward to discovering how it all plays out.
On the flip side, I found the writing to be contain many grammatical and typographical errors, which did sometimes lead to confusion on my part and sometimes made the writing style seem awkward. I think al, that is required here is a really good proofreader, and this series will blossom even more. Still worth the read though!
