It’s not Buffy. So don’t go in thinking that. But it is enjoyable. The plot meanders and the story is probably too long, but I enjoyed hearing those voices again after so long. Worth a listen, just don’t be frustrated that it’s DIFFERENT.

It’ll do a great job amusing you while you’re doing other things. It doesn’t require deep attention and you’re not likely to be wowed. But the actors are good, and Neil Gaiman is always a joy to hear.

Luke Daniels makes it worth your time

The story is…amusing. I can’t deny that it’s a creative take on first contact and it’s not the genre you’ve likely read (listened to) when told with the irreverence and silliness only Scott Meyer can add to a story. I think I would have put the book down, but listening to Daniels made it worth it. His voices and humorous personalities add charm. Give it a listen. You probably wont cherish it always, but the book will certainly feel good in the now.

Uninspired and predictable, with little to no real humor. The female narrator brings some talent and light to the story, the male sounds patronizing and gruff. Overall, the story isn’t really romantic or comedic, and you’ll guess the entire plot within minutes. Nothing “hot” about the storyline.

I gave it over an hour. It went no where and I’m disappointed I blew a credit on this book. I suppose if you’re very into tech and Silicon Valley you might eventually find something enjoyable. I understand winding up and building characters and plot…this isn’t that. It’s drivel. And not 22 hours well spent.

The first 3 or 4 hours were tedious. Perhaps they were buildup, perhaps they felt redundant and long-winded to just me. Whatever the case, it picks up—and fast! The story is unique and fun, and being a military member myself made it all the more entertaining to listen to. Join “Colonel Joe” on a ride to save humanity, with every snide remark and shenanigan along the way.

If you liked Heads Will Roll you’ll probably like this one. Entertaining, quirky, and out of left field, but well executed and lighthearted. It touches on some interesting aspects of the self-care culture, and pokes fun along the way. Good time killer, worth a listen. And a few chuckles to be had.

Nothing overly new or thought-provoking, and still, this is a classic Ray Porter and Dennis E. Taylor pairing. The story is fun, the voices and personalities are fun, the antics are fun—it’s unlikely you’ll dislike this book because it’s, well, fun! Enjoy!

It’s NOT the podcast you’re used to

The completeness and flow of the podcast are not replicated in this story. It’s as if the book is made entirely of the maddening, go-nowhere side information that usually only contribute minutely to the podcast. It’s rare I don’t finish a book. I wanted to like this, as I like all of the Public Radio Alliance podcasts, but there is nothing the narrator can do to bring flow and sense to the story.

Story really doesn’t go anywhere, but the acting and antics are fun nonetheless. If you’re looking for a complete arc and final resolution, it’s not there. If you need to kill time while mowing the lawn or something, it’s a fine read.
