After the latest mission of the starship Flying Dutchman, Earth is safe not just for a year, but for hundreds of years. The ship’s weary crew wonders what they will do with their lives in peacetime, but the enemy has other plans, and there is danger on the Homefront. Starring Zachary Quinto, R.C. Bray, Kate Mulgrew, Robert Picardo, and everyone's favorite AI, Skippy the Magnificent, alongside a full cast. Includes plenty of pew-pew-pew, original sound composition, and maybe some singing by R.C. Bray.

Please don’t do this ever again
Revisado: 05-02-20
I only listened through this book because I really like the series. If you are indifferent to the series, avoid this book because it will make you hate it.
Story was just OK, but the performance was terrible. Way over produced and sound effects were particularly annoying.
I won’t buy another “Skippy Opera”. It wasn’t clever. It was aggravating. Please don’t do this ever again.

I hate this book
Revisado: 12-26-15
Every single character is unlikeable, pathetic and just plain stupid. They make stupid decisions and all seem to hate each other - yet love each other throughout the book.
The writing is average, the story arc is inconsistent. One minute a character is almost dead, the next they are fine - for example.
I listened to the end just to see if any characters were redeemable. They weren't. I won't be listening to any more in this series or by this author. Don't waste you money on this story, you'll just come away angry at wasting your time like I did.

Once the Church of God Awaiting dominated all the kingdoms of Safehold. Then, after centuries of stasis, the island kingdom of Charis began to defy the edicts of Mother Church—egged on, some say, by the mysterious warrior-monk Merlin Athrawes, who enjoys the Charisian royal family's absolute trust. What vanishingly few people know is that Merlin is the cybernetic avatar of a young woman a thousand years dead, felled in the war in which aliens destroyed Earth...and that since awakening, his task has been to restart the history of the long-hidden human race.

STOP CHANGING NARRATORS!!!
Revisado: 02-21-14
Would you listen to Midst Toil and Tribulation again? Why?
No. Worst of some bad narrators.
How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
Go back to original narrator. And stop changing them!
How could the performance have been better?
Get a new narrator.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I like the series and will suffer through bad narrators - but it grows weary.
Any additional comments?
GO BACK TO THE ORIGINAL NARRATOR!

SECTIONS OF THE BOOK ARE MISSING - DON'T BUY IT
Revisado: 04-24-13
This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
Big chunks of the book are not recorded. A lot of the story doesn't make sense. I'd like a refund.
