When Rigg and his friends crossed the Wall between the only world they knew and a world they could not imagine, he hoped he was leading them to safety. But the dangers in this new wallfold are more difficult to see. Rigg, Umbo, and Param know that they cannot trust the expendable, Vadesh - a machine shaped like a human, created to deceive - but they are no longer certain that they can even trust one another. But they will have little choice.

Brilliant concept and plot
Revisado: 06-01-24
Adult worthy. Deep. Caters a lot to kids, though, and the relationship challenges they’d find themselves in. Seems he’s on a bit of a Mission. A ton of characters to keep track of… Pathfinder’s and time shifters are pretty novel concepts, as OSC presents them.
He’s a really sharp guy.

Backyard Starship series.
Revisado: 08-24-23
Entertaining story in a grand tradition.
I hear shades of Heinlein. Love the Iowa farm connection. Is humorous, and the story moves along quickly. One comes to appreciate the quirky different characters.
I’ll keep listening, while also seeking other, a little more hard, sci fi books, my forte.
A Quite respectable work, though.

Travelers often become enchanted with the first country that captures their hearts and gives them license to be free. For Wade Davis, it was Colombia. Now in a masterly new book, Davis tells of his travels on the mighty Magdalena, the river that made possible the nation. Along the way, he finds a people who have overcome years of conflict precisely because of their character, informed by an enduring spirit of place, and a deep love of a land that is home to the greatest ecological and geographical diversity on the planet.

Increible
Revisado: 02-06-23
Passionate, scholarly, so well researched and told. Of great import to those who seek to understand one of the most complex and important areas in the world. Geography, ethnographic, you name it. Dystopian w. a bright glimmer of hope. Changed me.

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.

A good ending to the Interdependency trilogy
Revisado: 05-19-20
Scalzi doesn’t disappoint. If you’ve made it this far, you know what you’re getting into. Kiva Lagos is on point again, my favorite insult from this book is calling her 2 captors “Chuckle and F**kle.” I’ll get some good mileage out of that one.

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
Owning this book, buying it to listen to was a spur of the moment decision. Make sure to listen to the sample and listen to the poor narration before purchase.
Any additional comments?
Don't misunderstand me, this a great book by the greatest Samurai of all time. Worth the read or listen, just not this one.
