Set 300 years after the events of Alien: Out of the Shadows and Alien: River of Pain, Alien: Sea of Sorrows deals with the rediscovery of dormant Xenomorphs (Aliens) in the abandoned mines of LV-178, the planetoid from Alien: Out of the Shadows, which has now been terraformed and renamed New Galveston. The Weyland-Yutani Corporation, reformed after the collapse of the United Systems Military, continue their unceasing efforts to weaponise the creatures.

Not much: a pulp Alien story
Revisado: 03-12-25
It filled the drive time. If you’re looking for an Alien revelation, keep going. This is the basic formula story. Not bad, just not overly exciting.

Historia
The planet of Kiln is where the tyrannical Mandate keeps its prison colony, and for inmates, the journey there is always a one-way trip. One such prisoner is Professor Arton Daghdev, xeno-ecologist and political dissident. Soon after arrival, he discovers that Kiln has a secret. Humanity is not the first intelligent life to set foot there. In the midst of a ravenous, chaotic ecosystem are the ruins of a civilization, but who were the vanished builders and where did they go?

Nice concept of alien evolution
Revisado: 02-23-25
This author continues to entertain me without “epic battles “ or silly “hero’s journey” retellings. Truly thought provoking tales with “real” aliens to learn from.

Historia
The Malazan Empire simmers with discontent, bled dry by interminable warfare, bitter infighting and bloody confrontations with the formidable Anomander Rake and his Tiste Andii, ancient and implacable sorcerers. Even the imperial legions, long inured to the bloodshed, yearn for some respite. Yet Empress Laseen's rule remains absolute, enforced by her dread Claw assassins.

How confusing the storyline is
Revisado: 01-31-25
I feel like the story has promise, but it’s damned near impossible to follow without taking notes. The Silmarillion is easier to follow

Historia
Lolth has come out of hibernation with a plan that may seem too ambitious even for her, and to pull it off she'll need the help of a drow who's betrayed her at least once already--a drow she's transformed into the demonic Lady Penitent. The shocking conclusion to a trilogy that will change the Forgotten Realms world forever.

The incessant mispronunciation….
Revisado: 11-11-24
This series is a clear example of the sunk cost fallacy. Listening to the narrator was frequently maddening as she has such a poor, grasp on the English language, The story itself was average. Like many dungeons and dragons based stories, it dwelt too much on combat scenarios. 20 minutes of combat description becomes tedious. However, some of us must know how the story ends. This narrator needs to find a new line of work.

The narrator’s poor performance was distracting
Revisado: 08-15-24
While the story itself was typical “Forgotten Realms,” decent but not award winning fantasy, the narrator made this truly difficult to listen to. Debating if I’ll continue the series.

Historia
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Really was prepared to dislike this book but thoroughly enjoyed it. Liked the the odd couple effect and the conclusion.

Wonderful conclusion to a fabulous trilogy
Revisado: 09-05-23
Often times shows and books don’t end well (GoT, I’m looking at you,) but Harrison did a fine job with this series. While I’m left with the desire for more, none is necessary and I can feel this alternate reality’s truth.

Really good speculative fiction

I like this story set in a prehistoric arena. It ages well unlike other fiction that gets trumped by real tech advances.

Though the other book in the books of the north are all very close. A bit different than the Black Company, but excellent writing nonetheless

Historia
A siege is approaching, and the city has little time to prepare. The people have no food and no weapons, and the enemy has sworn to slaughter them all. To save the city will take a miracle, but what it has is Orhan. A colonel of engineers, Orhan has far more experience with bridge building than battles, is a cheat and a liar, and has a serious problem with authority. He is, in other words, perfect for the job.

Fun, plausible ways to examine a city under siege. All the snarky writing you could want. Just a fun listen.
