Historia
Seventy years ago, the interstellar supercarrier Ark Royal was the pride of the Royal Navy. But now, her weapons are outdated and her solid-state armour nothing more than a burden on her colossal hull. She floats in permanent orbit near Earth, a dumping ground for the officers and crew the Royal Navy wishes to keep out of the public eye. But when a deadly alien threat appears, the modern starships built by humanity are no match for the powerful alien weapons.

Historia
There's no two ways about Les Norton - the carrot-topped country boy who works as a bouncer at Sydney's top illegal casino. He's tough and he's mean. He's got a granite jaw, fists like hams, and they say the last time he took a tenner from his wallet Henry Lawson blinked at the light. Lethal but loyal, he's always good for a laugh. In this, the third collection of Les Norton adventures, Les gets his boss off the hook. But not without the help of the boy from Binjiwunyawunya. Les then finds himself in a spot of bother in Long Bay Gaol then in a lot more bother on a St. Kilda tram in Melbourne.

What did you like best about this story?
I like the laid back writing style. The stories travel at their own pace.
What does Dino Marnika bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Good ozy accent and a style that is not rushed but still very interesting.

Les being the main character still stand out.
Any additional comments?
If you are after a fast moving adventure you may be disappointed BUT with the way that it is written I was not bored at all and really enjoyed the style of writing.

Historia
Donnchadh and Gwalcmai were birthed on a far-flung planet in the Milky Way - a human breeding colony with the purpose of churning out disposable foot soldiers. But the masters of the colony, the Airlia, created humans with one fatal flaw: an insatiable thirst for freedom. Though Donnchadh and Gwalcmai become God-killers in the bloody revolt against their seemingly omnipotent creators and captors, their planet is already doomed.

Not what I expected
Revisado: 08-13-14
What did you love best about Nightstalkers?
Bit disappointed with this story, since it was under the umbrella of the area 51 story I expected that is would be connected to the story line. Apart from thaw fact is based at area 51 it has no other connection to the area 51 series of books.
What did you like best about this story?
Saying that I enjoyed the story and characters. The premise is good. This is more of a military kick arse type of story
Have you listened to any of Eric G. Dove’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I had seen reviews criticising this narrator before. Found him very listenable and had no problem following his narration.
Any additional comments?
Will I buy the other books....... I might as I do like Bob Mayar story lines. I just feel this should not have been listed with the area 51 series

Historia
The half-breed known only as Nosferatu has existed since ancient Egyptian times as part of a group of bioengineered beings that served the old gods. But those gods are no more - eradicated by human efforts - so now Nosferatu schemes to thrust himself into the resulting power vacuum. In order to achieve this, he requires a piece of leftover alien technology known as the Holy Grail. With it, he can grasp true immortality, be freed of his need for human blood, and reunite with the lover the gods took from him so many years ago.

Still a great story
Revisado: 08-08-14
What did you love best about Area 51: Nosferatu?
This is a vampire love story. This does not continue from "The Truth" put is a side story that continues to fill in more info concerning alien intervention through out history.
What other book might you compare Area 51: Nosferatu to and why?
this is far better than any of the vampire chick flicks on at the movies
What about Eric G. Dove’s performance did you like?
Easy to listen to, master of his art.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
This book is quit bloody and graphic concerning the habits of vampires, verges on too much blood and gore but the history aspect is fascinating.
Any additional comments?
I can listen to this story again, it is a complete story with villains, victims and allot of nasties in the area 51 world. Even though a side line adds to the area 51 story. This is a very clever story, I enjoyed it.

Historia
Dr. Lisa Duncan and Special Forces officer Mike Turcotte know better than anyone that no secret is safe for long - especially one that offers untold power. Case in point: No sooner does Turcotte’s elite Area 51 team uncover a dormant alien ship in Earth's orbit than a group of alien-human hybrids seizes it and uses its technology to commandeer a satellite array bristling with nuclear missiles. Now they’re demanding that humankind hand over the key to an ancient stash of alien technology…or watch an entire continent be reduced to atomic rubble.

Historia
Hidden deep in the Amazon rain forest is a place shrouded in mystery. It is called The Mission. And in nearby villages people are screaming in pain as they die from a virus more deadly than Ebola. They can't escape it. They can't cure it. They can't stop it from exploding into a worldwide epidemic poised to kill us all.... Scientist Lisa Duncan and Special Forces Officer Mike Turcotte suspect this new "Black Death" is actually a biological weapon in an escalating war between us...and "them".

Historia
Deep in the Nevada desert is the most secure compound in the United States: Area 51. The most chilling experiment of all time is about to begin there. The president doesn't know about it. Just a few scientists and military personnel working for Majestic-12 do, and they are about to make a very big mistake.

Revisado: 08-07-14
Would you consider the audio edition of Area 51 to be better than the print version?
I had read this book first as I could not get the audio on tape or cd as it was published many years ago. For me audio is always better.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Area 51?
The build up giving you info about area 51, very visual.
What does Jeffrey Kafer bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
He is an excellent narrater, he has a very descriptive way of telling the story.
It flows very well. Shame he did not do the whole series i.e. The Grail
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I think its when the military with all their tech come across the phew Fighters
Any additional comments?
I would recommend this series of 10 books. the story finishes at "the Truth" but the rest really add to the area 51 universe. "The Grail" apart from the worst narration I have ever heard is an excellent story so you have to suffer to get the full story.

Historia
Mythological artifacts become a modern arsenal in a millennia-long interstellar battle. On one side stands the alien race that styled itself as gods to secretly steer human evolution. On the other is an elite team of Area 51 commandos, dedicated to freeing humanity from their interstellar overlords. Special Forces officer Mike Turcotte and his former lover Lisa Duncan are among the few who know the truth about the extraterrestrial threat - and have the power to fight it.

What made the experience of listening to The Truth the most enjoyable?
this concludes the story so far. It answered all the questions.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Truth?
What can I say.....the ending!!
Have you listened to any of Eric G. Dove’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
His ability to tell the story is exceptional. I have collected and listened to stories for over 30 years. i know a bad narrater. This narrater tells the story, easy on the ears .....PRO!!!!
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I DID!!!!
Any additional comments?
This story is a collection of books that must be listened to, apart from one book and a really bad narrater it is a journey worth traveling. It is on par with Dark Skies where conspiracies are linked to an alien story line. I have enjoyed it so far immensely.
