different but good.

Great character development. An interesting view of "I", "we", and cultural pressure. it is a different kind of space opera, the good kind.

3rd of the series yet still great

Revisado: 04-23-24

SF always has multiple books. But if we were honest, we would state how often each book in the series is lesser than the original. This series does not follow that sad rule. I am old and have read many books and listened to quite a few as well, it is exceptionally good.

Great story line, excellent characters, and a sharp understanding of human characters and personalities.

Even if you are not a SF enthusiast, this might be the in for you. SF but not too wild, yet novel.

Commune 5 = worst commune

Revisado: 06-29-23

Reader is great.

The book however is the worst in the series.
1) does not continue the series to the exception of the otter.
2) the book is as tropy as it can be
3) I literally never give a bad review, but the author needs to be punished for this rubbish.

Different but good

Revisado: 10-30-21

It is not your usual Sci-fi.

I was sceptical of the story line. It starts slow but it all meshes very well. So we’ll that the outcome is so in-line that you find yourself coopted quite willingly.

Also without any research in the book I can tell the English it is written in is very British, due to the expressions used not the usual North America idioms.

Enjoyable experience.

Excellent sci-fi

Revisado: 12-13-20

It’s starship troopers but without copying it. It’s a similitude without being a rehash. It’s excellent writing. Well developed characters and sound plot. I first read this when it came back. But now having re-listened to it while on a work trip; it’s as good the second time around.

A must download.

Superb short series

Revisado: 09-20-20

The dispatcher series of books are great short little beauties. Perhaps one of the most interesting stories in modern sci-fi thrillers in a near future sense.

A great classic

Revisado: 07-28-20

It is odd. It is a book that focuses on both individuals and society. It is nice to hear. The story line and behaviour of the protagonist, is a relic of its time. Dad aces of books and movies on this topic make his reactions and actions seem almost absurd, but his view and interpretations beautiful to hear. A classic worth a listen.

I am a liberal but ...

Revisado: 07-19-20

Beyond the criticism of the trump presidency and the handling of various situations, Bolton does a far better job in print than on TV to look like a reasonable hawk. This book was a very interesting insight into the current presidency but as well a compelling snapshot of geopolitical tensions and where and why they stand.

I surprisingly enjoyed it.

Non Western Greatness

Revisado: 01-22-20

I read and listen to lots of sci-fi. Due to the fact I live in North America most physical books are North American or European. Most audio books on audible are as well dominated by western culture. But this is an exceptional listen. Superb. Just when you thought you knew all possible avenues and approaches in this genre boom you find this book and it’s first part the three body problem.
