Just right

Revisado: 10-04-24

Amber Benson is quite talented. Loved all the voices. This was typical Scalzi and I'll listen to it many times.

great story

I loved this book! The narrator is great. The story kept me interested and I've gone for the rest of the series.

Odd

Revisado: 04-29-24

I loved the odd endings. They were mostly a surprise to me. Andy Weir is a great author.

Captivating!

Revisado: 03-14-21

I was on the edge of my seat throughout this entire book. As a fan of the James Bond movies, this didn't disappoint. I could hardly wait to get back to it when my own work called. I certainly hope there are more adventures for James Flynn.

Narration is irritating

Revisado: 02-15-21

I am still on book 2 in this, but needed to say that the narrator is NOT my favorite. When she is in character, it's fine. But when she is just narrating in between dialog, she reminds me of the fake Siri narration found on TikTok which absolutely grates on my nerves. I'm going to finish the books, because they are actually interesting and fun, but I will make a note of this narrator (Caitlin Davies) and avoid her in future.

Weird narration

Revisado: 08-29-20

I listened to this because it's the original story that John Scalzi used in his Fuzzy Nation book. I understand why Scalzi wanted to rewrite it. It's a great story but needed updating so current readers could appreciate it. There's a lot of sexism, smoking, and drinking.

What I didn't like: the narrator. He has some great voices but his narrator's voice sounds like an AI auto reading. It was very off-putting and I almost quit listening. However, the story redeemed itself and I couldn't stop till I finished. I did almost look for the print version though!

Not to diss the narrator completely, he is very talented and he had a different voice for each character, so I always knew who was speaking even before the story told me. I wasn't thrilled with his Jack Holloway voice but I knew who it was anyway while listening. It was only there narration that bothered me.

Read this, then read John Scalzi's Fuzzy Nation. You won't be disappointed.

Doesn't disappoint

Revisado: 05-31-20

The 2nd in the Joe Tesla books is just as riveting as the first book. I finished it in one day because I just couldn't stop listening to it. I'll get the 3rd book next month with my credit...if I can wait that long!

Kept me on the edge of my seat

Revisado: 05-09-20

I really highly recommend this book. This is my first Rebecca Cantrell solo book. I already loved her Sanguine Series with James Rollins and this doesn't disappoint either. Can't wait to read more about Joe Tesla.

I'm devastated

Revisado: 04-22-20

Partly because the series is finished, but also because it was such a powerful story. A surprise plot twist which startled me with disbelief. Wil Wheaton's narration is superb. He captures each character's dialect and nuances. You can actually tell who is speaking even before the text tells you. Please do yourself a huge favor if you like science fiction, John Scalzi, and/or Wil Wheaton. Read this trilogy!

Another great series by Charlaine Harris

Revisado: 01-19-20

This is my 2nd reading of this book to review before I read/listen to the 2nd in the series. Charlaine Harris never disappoints.
