I had nothing better to do, so I snagged the first one. The claim is that "they tried" to move the asteroid with no success.
Halfway though the book, I'm getting a real "To Serve Man" vibe from it, so I suspect that after spending Book 1 getting to the Atlantean planet, the remaining books will be...
2. Main character being put through the grinder on the Atlantean planet (can't tell yet if they want humans as cannon fodder or gladiators) to try to save her family on Earth.
3. Main character fomenting an uprising against Atlantean overlords.
4. Story of the rebellion winning, and the main character finding a way to subvert Atlantean technology to save Earth after all.
