Authors June Hayward and Athena Liu were supposed to be twin rising stars: same year at Yale, same debut year in publishing. But Athena’s a cross-genre literary darling, and June didn’t even get a paperback release. Nobody wants stories about basic white girls, June thinks. So when June witnesses Athena’s death in a freak accident, she acts on impulse: she steals Athena’s just-finished masterpiece, an experimental novel about the unsung contributions of Chinese laborers to the British and French war efforts during World War I.

Awful
Revisado: 12-15-23
Almost impossible to get through. No one to relate to in entire novel. I kept waiting for a twist or something redemptive. It never happened.

Lowen Ashleigh is a struggling writer on the brink of financial ruin when she accepts the job offer of a lifetime. Jeremy Crawford, husband of best-selling author Verity Crawford, has hired Lowen to complete the remaining books in a successful series his injured wife is unable to finish. Lowen arrives at the Crawford home, ready to sort through years of Verity's notes and outlines, hoping to find enough material to get her started. What Lowen doesn't expect to uncover in the chaotic office is an unfinished autobiography Verity never intended for anyone to read.

Awful trash

Curious about why this woman is best selling author, so forced myself to listen to whole book. It was awful pandering and predictable. I hated it.

It was supposed to be easy! Aason Bierak is a not-so-ordinary 21-year-old man living in the 35th century. He and his 16-year-old sister Lupe take a quick trip to the home of Planet OMCOM, a computer the size of Earth, to upgrade a crucial piece of equipment. The trip was supposed to be easy, so easy Aason's father dubbed it a milk run. After Aason and Lupe complete the upgrade, Planet OMCOM convinces them to test his latest invention, the Null Fold X-drive.

Fantastic, entertaining space adventure!
Revisado: 05-04-16
Would you consider the audio edition of The Milk Run to be better than the print version?
The Audible version of The Milk Run, read by the author, is lots of fun. I love listening to audio books before bed, and the performance in The MIlk Run was easy to listen to and to follow no matter how late the hour.
Who was your favorite character and why?
I enjoyed the characters’ many voices, in particular the metallic tones of the computer being in this audio version. All of the main characters in The Milk Run are very likeable. How can you not love a brother who will not give up searching, not matter the cost, until he saves his kidnapped sister?
Which scene was your favorite?
Every scene in which Michael Brachman creates inventive, terrifying space creatures to put his characters in harm's way!
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Absolutely the best aspect of this novel is its deep exploration of spirituality in the context of a adventure-filled science fiction novel. These scenes like the space travel scenes are truly vivid and cinematic.
Any additional comments?
I am not typically a science fiction reader. Yet The Milk Run captivated me from the first page and kept my rapt attention throughout. Michael Brachman has an astonishing imagination! While the action-packed story is very engaging, it is the hard science behind every scene that makes this novel especially intriguing.
