an amazing read by Peter.

Revisado: 02-19-25

I'm only a handful of chapters in so far and I'm absolutely loving the job that Peter is doing on his narration of this book. Ryan's story is enchanting, and Peter's narration just turns it up to a whole nother level.

frustrating at times

Revisado: 02-19-24

nothing new happens. it's the same as the last couple books, but with less new interesting locations. I'm done with this author.

I got bored

Revisado: 10-28-23

after a crash in the beginning, a whole bunch of nothing happens for several chapters and I got bored. there's an exciting crash that happens right in the beginning, but you have no connection to it so it's almost completely uninteresting. then some people have some meetings and talk about what happened. The terrorists talk about how they were so successful, and what should they do next so you're not left with any kind of mystery whatsoever. The only character development so far has been a CEO hooking up with a reporter. I don't think my life experiences really mesh well with that. I'm glad I didn't have to pay credit to listen to it.

in a word, dumb

Revisado: 07-11-23

in trying to throw all the tropes out the window it seems it took anything interesting along with it. some characters die for no discernable reason. and the ones left over just aren't very interesting.

way too slow for me

Revisado: 08-17-22

i guess i was expecting a little more action and mystery, but what i got was a whole lot of navel gazing. there is one scene where it took i think, three chapters for the main character to watch a bad guy walk across a small room while the author filled in as many digressions and ramblings as possible, presumably to fill out his weird count.
the book is an interesting premise but i can do the execution.

The fun continues

Revisado: 08-05-22

Every bit the "page" turner as the first book. the characters feel like real reasonable humans and not some kind of action hero. There are plenty of humorous moments and moments that will make you cheer. there are also a few solid kicks to the fourth wall in an almost Pratchett way.

I'm really looking forward to the next book.

I tried

Revisado: 03-02-21

i got thirteen chapters in and the entire thing seems totally implausible. no real plot has developed yet and the author's voice is amateurish at best.
the narrator was ok, but it felt like he was reading to a six year old the entire time, except when he was literally yelling into the mic. not terrible, but you gotta lean back and let us hear what the room sounds like instead of blowing out eardrums.

bottom line, I'd say give this one a pass.

Where's the beef, err, hook?

Revisado: 07-31-19

I got a few chapters into this book and just never got grabbed by anything. All I got was some guy lost in the mountains, and an old guy torturing a confession out of some other guy. At no point did I feel like I give a crap about anything happening. Some books grab you with the first line (try Ender's Game), some take a few pages, or a chapter or two. But this one just never did it for me. I think I'm going to have to get a refund on my credit for this one. Your mileage may vary!

enjoyable and informative

Revisado: 11-30-18

this is a novel idea to get across the core concepts of advanced physics. I know there is a lot more to it, but I can speak intelligently about these topics now.

I had to do a double take when I first started playing the book since it is the same narrator from the fantasy series I was just reading (the cycle of arwan/galand). the voice of a particularly snarky character kept sneaking through, and I really didn't mind after getting used to it.

Roxanne really puts dinner life into this book.

Revisado: 01-25-18

I just have to say that it feels strange that Dan Wells writes teenage girls so well, so I'll give a lot of credit to the narrator, she did a great job.
