A Blast! Forward & Back!

Well done Gray Man story, true to his character and legend, and sufficiently convoluted that the answer doesn't start peeking through until 3/4 or so of the book. Some new character additions (Suzanne) need a lot more fleshing out, but very entertaining.

Historia
Will Robie may have just made the first - and last - mistake of his career.... It begins with a hit gone wrong. Robie is dispatched to eliminate a target unusually close to home in Washington, D.C. But something about this mission doesn't seem right to Robie, and he does the unthinkable: He refuses to kill. Now, Robie becomes a target himself and must escape from his own people.
Fleeing the scene, Robie crosses paths with a wayward teenage girl, a 14-year-old runaway from a foster home. But she isn't an ordinary runaway....

Story Is OK. Performance, Not So Much.

Overly complex, but entertaining
Revisado: 01-19-15
A few too many story lines to weave together realistically. Nevertheless, endearing characters and exciting action sequences pulled it through. Narrator/ narration is great, sound effects use of music, not so much.

Historia
alaxy. Humanity was slowly making their way out from Earth to the planets and asteroids of the Solar System, exploring and mining and founding colonies. The mining ship El Cavador is far out from Earth, in the deeps of the Kuiper Belt, beyond Pluto. Other mining ships, and the families that live on them, are few and far between this far out. So when El Cavador's telescopes pick up a fast-moving object coming in-system, it's hard to know what to make of it. It's massive and moving at a significant fraction of the speed of light.

The beginning- or a plot filler
- De Don Gilbert en 08-22-14
The more time passes, the more things stay same
Revisado: 10-29-12
What made the experience of listening to Earth Unaware the most enjoyable?
Narration with character voices and accurate personalities
What did you like best about this story?
Fleshed out details of asteroid mining and realistic limitations on human space travel.
Have you listened to any of the narrators’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Unsure
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Glimpses of humanity in the character flying the corporate ship.
Any additional comments?
Not very original story lines - corporate vs. the little guy, daddy war bucks manipulating the lives of his kid and underlings, resentment of the wealthy - but narration and technology details made it worth hearing.

unexpected
Revisado: 08-27-07
Not what I expected from O.S.Card, even from the Audible synopsis, and an unfamiliar genre for me. In any case, it maintained my interest and made credible jumps to incredible places.

Historia
A young Yale academic is summoned to Ireland to claim the contents of her grandfather's safe-deposit box, in which she finds only one thing: a nonfiction manuscript by James Bond author Ian Fleming. The manuscript, detailing Fleming's own involvement in British espionage during World War II, contains evidence that the Duke of Windsor was in a treasonous plot with Hitler, information so confidential that people are willing to kill to continue its secrecy.

Unbelievable
Revisado: 08-27-07
The details of Ian Fleming's life, whether true or fictional, sustain the story and keep one listening. The vessel for the delivery of the story is poorly developed and not convincing as are those pursuing and supporting her. I was disappointed.

intriguing, but tedious
Revisado: 08-27-07
I listened to the unabridged version and had some difficulty sticking to it. The story was interesting and unpredictable, but moved pretty slowly. Psychological details were very well done.
My biggest complaint is my own personal dislike of stories told in the first person, and I believe that it made this story that much more tedious. The story is also somewhat unsatisfying due to the unpleasant outcome for the main character.

When CIA "fixer" Micah Dalton's friend and mentor turns up dead, he's put on a collision course with a killer who has a penchant for intricate knife-work and Native American mysticism, a sadist who is killing ex-CIA agents. The victims are hard-nosed field men whose only link to one another seems to be a global surveillance operation called Echelon. The murders appear to be acts of retribution. But for what?

Keeps your interest...
Revisado: 04-07-07
I agree with whomever said "must be a pen name" or this guy has quite an editor. The story did not drag, the character development is deep and believable and the pace is adequate to maintain interest. The twists in the tale are confounding at first because you truly don't know where you are going or how things will hook together, but in the end it enhances the tale as the reader "remembers" connections as the lead character does. Very fulfilling book.
