Historia
In 2059, two vastly different groups of people portrayed by the compelling trio of Brendan Fraser (Academy Award winner), Luke Kirby (Emmy Award winner), and Vanessa Sears (Dora Award winner) undergo cryonic suspension. While their bodies are frozen, their minds, still active and awake, are uploaded into a massive quantum computer. The first group are all astronauts, about to leave Earth on a one-way interstellar colonization mission. The second group consists of convicted murderers and volunteers who elect to serve their sentences in a virtual-reality prison.

Amazing story but leave the politics out of it….
Revisado: 12-07-24
Absolutely loved the storyline - it’s been a while since I listened to a book that just made me completely forget about time - but - the one negative thing that irked me most were the authors clear political tendencies filtering through here and there and by that I mean the references to Covid and masking (which has been proven ineffective for a long time now).Also there are other references to leftists political opinions which I happen to seriously disagree with…. But overall it didn’t kill the story for me, it just irked me …
NOTE TO THE AUTHOR:
KEEP PRESENT POLITICS OUT OF SF - you’ll get more readers / listeners…

Historia
For years, Connor and others in the colony have unraveled the mysteries of New Earth and the global catastrophes that nearly destroyed its previous inhabitants. Their work led to the discovery of other worlds beyond the known universe. It became clear that many of those worlds had been attacked by an interdimensional invader that left untold amounts of manipulation, hardship, and annihilation in its wake. It’s only a matter of time before the colony becomes the next target.

Historia
Don Rucker has seen what Mordecai The Brown is capable of. Now the second in command of his father's syndicate wants Mort's help with an even bigger job: killing Theo Rucker. Initially roped in simply as Mort's handler, Chuck's people skills become invaluable in rooting out loyalists to the old regime when even Don's trusted lieutenants are too close to be objective. Mort trims the ranks quietly, become a boogeyman to any syndicate guys not in on the plot. When the coup takes place, they hope for a quick decisive action that swiftly puts Don on the throne.

Historia
The galaxy’s worst bounty hunter just might be its most relentless hero. Esper Richelieu is a wizard with a mission: To make the galaxy a better place one lost soul at a time. Donning the trappings of an interstellar bounty hunter, she delves into the galaxy’s underworld to search out those most in need of help. Whether it’s a teenage runaway or an actor kidnapped by cultists, the victim comes first. Money is an afterthought. That confuses a lot of clients. But sometimes the best way to get someone to accept the help they need is to convince them to pay for it.

Amazing !!!
Revisado: 07-21-23
Not your usual sci-if - totally rocks - the character depths are astounding- especially if you listen to all three Black Ocean stories available here - can’t even decide which character is my favorite between Mort, Roddy, Carl, Kubu, Wesley Wesley and Esper or Tiffany - there is so much depth to each of them, even the supporting characters have lots of background that gradually gets revealed as the story progresses… anyway it’s just fun to listen to - I still chuckle just thinking about some of the things Wesley Wesley and Kubu said - totally hilarious but listen to it yourself - let the Black Ocean suck you in 😃

Where is the continuation???
Revisado: 03-10-23
So I normally read hard sci-fi but I thought I’d give this a go - it took me an hour or two to get used to the characters and the narrator but after that I was all in - totally loved it - but where is the next part ?
Help!!!

Revisado: 12-17-22
1st of four books in this saga - I have listened to this so many times now that I can’t even remember how often - the four books in this series are an absolute must read/listen if you appreciate decent sci-if - not the kind of horror type sci-fi but something that actually uses “fringe physics”, has a story line that is well thought out and has a great mixture of science, technology, adventure and intrigue built in - the main characters are very detailed and one can clearly picture each one of them and the plot itself will make you think about the possibilities and the unknown history of the Galaxy we live in - it certainly puts a different perspective on things.
I’d highly recommend reading/listening to the entire series … I now truly have “Nostalgia for Infinity”

Historia
Where did mankind really come from? Why are we here? We can't understand the past until we embrace the future. These critical mysteries take center stage as Earth emerges into a galactic society that is far more perilous than anyone could have imagined. Our history is far more complicated than we could have known. Can a few brilliant minds find a way out for Earth?

I could not stop listening from the beginning on - finally “Macho” is back - the main character sort of reminds of Archer from the same named Cartoon series …
The story has a bit of everything, plenty great Sci-Fi concepts, also touching philosophy and religion in an ever evolving plot - can’t wait to read the continuation.
