Ultima Thule by Mack Reynolds ~ Full Audiobook [scifi]

Ultima Thule by Mack Reynolds audiobook. Genre: scifi Ronny Bronston has spent his whole life dreaming of an off-world posting with United Planets, the sprawling interstellar authority that promises peace, progress, and a place for ambitious young men to prove themselves. When he finally lands a provisional slot in the Bureau of Investigation, Section G, he expects glamorous diplomacy and clear-cut heroics. Instead, he is dropped into a maze of interviews, procedures, and quiet political pressures where every promotion has a price and every official slogan hides an inconvenient reality. His first case is the kind that can make a career or end it: track down Tommy Paine, a long-rumored agitator whose name is linked to uprisings and ideological contagion on world after world. Chasing a man who may be terrorist, prophet, or manufactured myth forces Ronny to confront how empires maintain order, how revolutions spread, and how easily truth can be packaged as policy. As the hunt pulls him farther from the safety of headquarters and deeper into contested cultures at the edge of human space, Ronny must decide what loyalty actually means when the system itself may be the most dangerous mystery of all.
