Revisado: 02-07-22
Great narrator, and the story was a lot more focused than in the first book. Rather than feeling like a bunch of strung together episodes, the narrative held throughout the whole book.

Historia
Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Decent story, great narrator
Revisado: 01-28-22
Largely a basic heist story within the setting of the moon base Artemis. Great main character, but thebside characters are a bit flimsy. A fun book if you like heists.

Good narrator, mediocre book
Revisado: 01-24-22
Struggled a bit to finish this one. If it had been much longer, I probably would have quit. There are some interesting world building bits and a few points of intrigue, but the POV of the main character is inconsistent and the foreshadowing is ham-fisted. The book hops back and forth between an epic narrative about an assassin fighting for her freedom in a classic tournament of champions and an unexpected romance. The back-and-forth of these competing story lines is constant, and detracts from the story rather than enhancing it. I will not be reading the rest of the series.

Historia
Deep inside Fairchild Air Force Base, Project Eternal Vigilance has continued to watch and wait for the Andromeda Strain to reappear. On the verge of being shut down, the project has registered no activity - until now. A Brazilian terrain-mapping drone has detected a bizarre anomaly of otherworldly matter in the middle of the jungle, and, worse yet, the tell-tale chemical signature of the deadly microparticle. With this shocking discovery, the next-generation Project Wildfire is activated, and a diverse team of experts hailing from all over the world is dispatched to investigate.

Let Down Sequel
Revisado: 07-17-20
This did not feel like a Michael Creighton work at all. The science was less convincing, and the ending was just a massive sequence of far-flung plot devices that read like the script to an action movie.

Revisado: 02-02-20
The performance is fine, but the book is so badly chopped up that nothing makes sense at all. There are MASSIVE gaps, and absolutely no coherence between chapters.

Great book, but weird narration
Revisado: 07-25-19
Robert Jordan's writing is superb. He uses a poetically descriptive voice that seems rare amongst other fantasy writers. However, the narration was off. At some points, it actively took away from the pace and content of the story. Perhaps I have been spoiled by Taylor Anderson, but the narrators for this book were only okay at best.

Historia
The Value of Everything argues that American companies have for too long been valued according to the amount of wealth they capture for themselves rather than for the value they create for the economy. In fact, Pfizer, Amazon, and other companies are actually dependent on public money, spend their resources on boosting share prices and executive pay, and reap ever-expanding rewards without offering the market value.

Just Okay
Revisado: 05-01-19
Much of the book is dedicated to the history of economic thought which was a bit dry. Additionally, the self-stated reason for publishing the book was to spark thought about how we value things. This is all well and good, but it was an awfully long-winded way to say that GDP and market price are poor indicators of value created. Overall, the ideas are good, the writing is okay, but the book is just repeated ramblings.

Historia
The long-planned raid on the heart of the Grik Empire has grown more ambitious - and dangerously ill-defined. Only Matthew Reddy, commander of the old destroyer USS Walker, seems focused on its original intent. Many Lemurians see an opportunity to reconquer their sacred homeland, which was stolen long ago, and have no intention of simply striking a blow and then pulling back. Others, Lemurian and human, have their own agendas - which may not be in the best interests of the Alliance.
