Historia
The Krox have finally reached their end game, and the sector will never be the same. Their relentless fleet darkens the skies of New Texas, home of the fabled Ternus shipyards. Their only hope lies with their sworn allies, the Shayans. But the Shayans refuse to help. Only Aran and his company can keep their leadership alive long enough for Voria to bring reinforcements and the fabled Spellship. If they fail, the entire world burns, and Ternus morale will collapse with it. But the war is merely a smokescreen for something much more sinister.

This series keeps getting better and better!!
Revisado: 02-03-19
The setting is fascinating, with dead gods in space, magic and tech, space wyrms, etc. The characters continue to develop and the plot thickens. And the ending is awesome!!! (Won’t give any spoilers).
I do have to point out my favorite character so far... Nebiat!! She so insidious and wily. An all-time best villain.

Even better than destroyer
Revisado: 07-16-16
What made the experience of listening to Void Wraith the most enjoyable?
The story is great, fast paced and exciting.
What did you like best about this story?
Cool action, great intrigue, excellent characters.
Have you listened to any of Ryan Kennard Burke’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Burke's performance is excellent, as always.
Any additional comments?
You must hear Destroyer first - otherwise you are missing out!
This book is so exciting, the action is fantastic and the characters are richly detailed. The story has just enough mystery to be intriguing, without being overwhelming. Also, I want to rave about the Tigris, too, they just keep getting cooler and cooler.
It is fast paced and an easy listen. Burke's narration is excellent as always, bringing the characters to life and keeping pace with the story.
Void Wraith is just as good as Destroyer, if not better. I highly recommend this to sci-fi fans.

Historia
Set in the far, far future, Steel Traveler Of Urth is a wild combination of The Good, The Bad And The Ugly (the sunburned landscape, the characters who take it for granted that everybody's out to cheat and/or kill everyone else as they vie for treasure)and The Road Warrior (the hard-to-kill hero has suffered so many losses, he's trying to be as big a bastard as everyone else, but he keeps being tripped up by his own innate decency).

A diamond in the rough
Revisado: 07-07-15
What did you love best about The Steel Traveler of Urth?
The myriad of voices played by a full cast was just amazing.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Well, I have to say Leena has a sultry voice... but I loved all the wild and fantastic characters. I think the Caloptrian scarab-men were my favorite species, though. A close second would be Blackavie.
Which scene was your favorite?
I enjoyed the wasteland trek immensely but the final confrontation was the most exciting part.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The garden song was haunting and chilling, and the scene very well done.
Any additional comments?
First, I have to say:
This. Audio. Book. Rocks...
...But it is rough. You can tell the author produced it himself (his afterword says as much).
However that being said, it makes up for the shortcomings by having a truly amazing cast and a fascinating world. The voices are GREAT (even has a truly haunting song), the narrator/author keeps a good pace, and the story stands up well. The battle scenes are great fun as well. I can see the comparison to westerns and mad max, it definitely has those elements. The mix of magic, technology, and bug-people come together to make one of the most creative worlds I've seen in quite a while! The world feels reminiscent of the old RPG "Rifts."
While the insectoid races, timekeeping system, and different types of magic and technology are alot to take in at first, the author leaves plenty of time for it to sink in, and has some clever ways of revealing these details.The only criticism I have is that some of the voices were hard to understand, especially Ajitron the Guardian.I only listen to audiobooks in the car, and this book left me actually looking forward to my commute, so I give it 5 stars overall.

Historia
A pyramid predating all known cultures appears without warning. Its discovery throws into question everything we know about the origins of mankind. Inside lies incredible technology, proof of a culture far more advanced than our own. Something dark lurks within, eager to resume a war as old as mankind. When it is unleashed it heralds the end of our species’ reign.

Gripping story, great performance
Revisado: 12-28-14
Would you consider the audio edition of No Such Thing As Werewolves to be better than the print version?
The print version of the book is quite exciting, but the audio book takes it to another level!
What did you like best about this story?
The story has many facets. Yes it is a story about werewolves, but it is so much more. It has many elements of sci-fi and a tinge of Indiana Jones (humor and all). The characters are compelling, the action is dramatic, and the story deep and engaging.
Which character – as performed by Ryan Kennard Burke – was your favorite?
I loved Sheila!
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Yes, but I can't say without spoilers.
Any additional comments?
I enjoyed the print version of the book, but the audio book truly does this book justice.
