Historia
Ender Wiggin won the Third Formic war, ending the alien threat to Earth. Afterwards, all the terraformed Formic worlds were open to settlement by humans, and the International Fleet became the arm of the Ministry of Colonization, run by Hirum Graff. MinCol now runs Fleet School on the old Battle School station, and still recruits very smart kids to train as leaders of colony ships, and colonies.

Reboot? Same old story...
Revisado: 11-30-17
Is there anything you would change about this book?
Everything. Once again there is a brilliant child.. who is superior to all others.. just like ender.. just like bean.. I stopped after 3 hours.. it just felt like Orson Scott Card is trying for a cash grab to start another series. Please finish the 3 you already have going. I've been in the Enderverse since the 80's and this is the first book I really didn't enoy.
Has Children of the Fleet turned you off from other books in this genre?
Pretty much until something pertaining to Ender or Bean or the bug wars is complete
Would you listen to another book narrated by Stefan Rudnicki?
Yes- Love Stefan Rudnicki
If this book were a movie would you go see it?
Nope-- why another cash grab Orson Scott Card? I was so disappointed to the rush job on Ender's game.
Any additional comments?

Like listening to Ben Stein whispering
Revisado: 10-24-17
I admit that i only got into 4hrs of this book- but it was because I couldn’t get past the narrator. I swear he reads it as if he is Ben Stein in a library whispering the entire story. It doesn’t add to the “mystical/whimsicalness” of the story it just makes it annoying... and tiresome. Maybe i’ll pick up the actual book in a library and let the voices in my head narrate a better job.

Historia
The epic and highly anticipated conclusion to the listener-favorite series that had countless Audible listeners (and employees) hooked from the very first Bob - featuring, as always, a flawless performance from the inimitable Ray Porter. Being a sentient spaceship really should be more fun. But after spreading out through space for almost a century, Bob and his clones just can't stay out of trouble. They've created enough colonies so humanity shouldn't go extinct.

I loved the first and second book. But this one seemed like the author just wanted to finish the book off and move on (felt rushed). Quick convenient conclusions of everything. Still enjoyable.. just not to par with the previous books.

Did head this in the bathroom?
Revisado: 04-21-17
Couldn't get past the first 30 minutes. The reader sounds as if he is in a large public bathroom. The echo is significantly distracting to the material.

There's a reason We Are Legion was named Audible's Best Science Fiction Book of 2016: Its irresistibly irreverent wit! Bob Johansson has just sold his software company for a small fortune and is looking forward to a life of leisure. The first item on his to-do list: Spending his newfound windfall. On an urge to splurge, he signs up to have his head cryogenically preserved in case of death. Then he gets himself killed crossing the street. Waking up 117 years later, Bob discovers his mind has been uploaded into a sentient space probe with the ability to replicate itself.

What made the experience of listening to We Are Legion (We Are Bob) the most enjoyable?
When I read the initial description of the story I was hesitant. It didn't sound fun nor interesting, but i was intrigued why so many people had given it such high ratings. I'm about two hours into it and i'm loving the story. The main character Bob is relate-able and flawed
What was one of the most memorable moments of We Are Legion (We Are Bob)?
Everything.
Which character – as performed by Ray Porter – was your favorite?
Bob

It's a future where it isn't ideal. It isn't a utopia, the characters have flaws and I'm drawn into thier struggles. Great Book

Ten years ago, Calamity came. It was a burst in the sky that gave ordinary men and women extraordinary powers. The awed public started calling them Epics. But Epics are no friend of man.

A shadowy group of ordinary humans, they spend their lives studying Epics, finding their weaknesses, and then assassinating them. And David wants in. He wants Steelheart - the Epic who is said to be invincible. The Epic who killed David's father.

Good listen.. byt just cringe worthy
Revisado: 05-29-15
Overall I enjoyed the book. But the characters don't seem to mature over a 20 year period. The writer seemed to feel that a 16 year old gang member would talk and act the same when he was in his 30s and in a professional field. I was also a little uncomfortable on how the writer thought it was important to always identify the black person in the room. He didn't identify the white astronaut or latin one but made sure to identify the black one. it would have been fine once.. but it was done several times.It was like listening to my grandmother spew some racist comments and didn't even know she was. To leave on a good note.. i enjoyed the storyline and concept and look forward to see how the storyline ends.. hopefully the writer can get past his prejudices and allow for the characters to mature.
