The story was well written, and the plot itself was interesting. The peformance of the mysterious Astartes was very overwrought, and the Dark Angel could have been a bit better. The human characters were well done.

Historia
As war rages in the Pandorax system, the Imperial battleship Revenge comes under attack by the dread forces of Chaos. As warriors of the Black Legion rampage through the venerable craft, Supreme Grand Master Azrael leads the First Company of the Dark Angels - the elite Deathwing - onto the vessel to eliminate the enemy. Separated from his men, Azrael finds himself trapped in the lower decks with only a tech-priest for company and one of the galaxy's most fearsome warriors hunting him: the infamous Khârn the Betrayer.

A fine audio drama for Pandorax fans.

This story takes place during Pandorax, so you're better served listening to both for full effect. The story is short but very well acted.

Historia
Eating is an indispensable human activity. As a result, whether we realize it or not, the drive to obtain food has been a major catalyst across all of history, from prehistoric times to the present. Epicure Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin said it best: "Gastronomy governs the whole life of man."

Good narrator/host, interesting and entertaining content, plus good in both single servings or a full-course experience. Recommended for seekers of lighter fare.

Historia
In what is considered one of Heinlein's most hair-raising, thought-provoking, and outrageous adventures, the master of modern science fiction tells the strange story of an even stranger world. It is 21st-century Luna, a harsh penal colony where a revolt is plotted between a bashful computer and a ragtag collection of maverick humans, a revolt that goes beautifully until the inevitable happens. But that's the problem with the inevitable: it always happens.

A Great Survey of the Energy World

It was a great overview of the energy world. It gave a global context and a local context. It reminded me to change the bulbs in my new house to more efficient LEDs.

Historia
Hollis Henry worked for the global marketing magnate Hubertus Bigend once before. She never meant to repeat the experience. Milgrim is even more thoroughly owned by Bigend. He's worth owning for his useful gift of seeming to disappear in almost any setting. baked into bone, entirely experimental, to show for it. Garreth has a passion for extreme sports. Garreth isn't owned by Bigend at all.

An excellent capstone on the series.
Revisado: 12-01-15
Would you consider the audio edition of Zero History to be better than the print version?
For my purposes as a commuter, I find it better. The narration was top-notch, and the story is received equally well when read and when heard.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Milgram. He changes from the beginning of the book to the end.
Have you listened to any of Robertson Dean’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Excellent, once again. I didn't know why he changed Milgram's voice, but it made sense after the story developed.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Global ideas, global consequences.

I loved this audio book. The content, the performance and the overall feel of the book was eye opening and made me appreciate the slow, inexorable push of geography on History.
