Historia
The Carryx—part empire, part hive—has waged wars of conquest for centuries, destroying or enslaving species across the galaxy in its conflict with an ancient and deathless enemy. When they descend on the isolated world of Anjiin, the human population is abased, slaughtered, and put in chains. The best and brightest are abducted, taken to the Carryx world-palace to join prisoners from a thousand other species. Dafyd Alkhor, assistant to a prestigious scientist, is captured along with his team.

I couldn’t take it.
Revisado: 04-17-25
If you’re not fully committed and completely focused on this book, you won’t follow all the characters or even the storyline. And if you are that focused, it will be too boring to keep your attention.
Characters aren’t introduced and developed well enough. There is no sense of action or involvement in the storyline. What should be amazing events and scary situations float by like some dream because the listener doesn’t feel involved or they it is developed well enough to seem realistic.

Slog. Not worth the credit.
Revisado: 02-14-25
The writing was junk, Nowhere did you did you feel like you were immersed in this world. The narration and the writing were like someone who just woke up from a sleep and tried to tiredly tell the story of their dream - no depth or relatable reality at all. The story was like a shallow dime-store novel from the early days of science fiction, predicable and unoriginal.

Historia
When summoned to a fantastical world and granted powers by a broken System, most freshly minted protagonists would strap on their big-boy boots and get ready for their stats to start climbing. But Fischer isn't like most MCs. In fact, he doesn't want to be a hero at all. Fame? Fortune? Power? He had enough of all that in his old life. Discovering forbidden fishing techniques and petting every cute animal that comes within scritching distance? Now that's a good time.

Historia
Dan Delgado is a private investigator. When it comes to finding cheating spouses, corporate thieves, or runaway teenagers, he’s unenthusiastic, and unmatched. As a former San Francisco detective, he misses more meaningful work, but he hasn’t had the heart for it since his wife’s death five years prior. That is, until a phone call from a distraught mother, an illegal immigrant who can’t go to the police, puts him on the hunt for a missing little girl. By the time he reaches the mother’s small home, she’s missing, too. The circumstances are strange....

Wow he must hate Mormons. Storyline is immature, and unbelievable. RC Bray did a great job as usual, but why does he narrate such junk? Skip this one.

Historia
Rock and roll in the BC (Before Cooper) era was a tamer, milder world. In Who I Really Am, Cooper’s latest addition to Audible’s Words + Music series, we learn how the boa-wearing (not the feathered kind) maestro arrived at a show and sound - let’s call it AC for After Cooper - that has entertained millions of kids while terrifying parents in equal measure. Cooper drew inspiration from Saturday matinee horror movies, applied a "no such thing as too much" attitude, and hitched it to a kick-ass rock and roll band.

The music is incredible, almost acoustic, his voice has changed a little, but still so good and real to his style.
The story is great, stories I’ve never heard and funny.

Historia
The collapse of The Flow, the interstellar pathway between the planets of the Interdependency, has accelerated. Entire star systems - and billions of people - are becoming cut off from the rest of human civilization. This collapse was foretold through scientific prediction...and yet, even as the evidence is obvious and insurmountable, many still try to rationalize, delay and profit from, these final days of one of the greatest empires humanity has ever known.

Seems like this book was just there to wrap up the series. Just didn’t do much for me. Wil Wheaton’s performance was great though!

Historia
The world watches the sky with trepidation. The insanity of Xenocide knew no bounds, and all will soon suffer the effects he had planned for a millennium. Though none know what is to come, they all know it isn't going to be easy to survive. The Master has a plan, one that can give the world at large a way to escape the onrushing desolation. It may be on the bleeding edge of morality and what he needs might prove too difficult to secure, but the Master asks for trust. Cal and Dale both have their role to play as the world hurtles toward destruction.

Jarring change of narration
Revisado: 10-19-19
Luke Daniels is one of my favorite narrators. But this did NOT work. The characters are not the same - I found the "main" voice in this narration sounded more like a different character of the previous books, so it's a confusing listen. Vikas Adams did better female voices too, so when Danni the dungeon wisp was speaking it sounded like a different male character. Good story, A rather odd ending, but in the end, the narration ruined it.

I love the MHI series, but this didn't do it for me. These seem to be stories from earlier in the series that didn't make the edit into the books the were intended for. Oliver Wyman does a fantastic job as usual. I would only recommend this book if you're really hard up for MHI.

Lost its way.
Revisado: 05-21-17
This series is going down-hill. Just not interesting anymore. Not enough action and too much discussion about nebulous plot-lines that don't get developed or resolved. The same goes for the characters, opining about character motivations that don't add to the story.

One of the all-time best books of this genre
Revisado: 08-19-16
Great story-line with a plot that takes you down several paths without being disjointed. Owen, the main character is likable and funny. Fantastic action. The first hour will have you on your seat edge!
Oliver Wyman does a masterful job at narration bringing the characters to life in your minds eye and makes the different characters distinct, all with enjoyable personalities.
