I thoroughly enjoyed this unique story. I also enjoyed the positive life lessons woven into the narrative.

Excellent mystery. Pretty much solved half way through. Too much going back and forth. Too much of the action is talking.

I thought I knew the AIDS story. I didn’t. And what I did know, a lot of it was wrong or incomplete. I thoroughly recommend this program.

I really enjoyed this story. The pacing was perfect for the reveals. There were cultural references made that I am sure I only partly understood: a life after death reference. But this now gives me something to explore broadening my knowledge. This story was a delight and I highly recommend.

Original plot; realistic characters; laugh out loud humor. Great story. Narrator perfect for the first-person character.

Besides being a good story as one would expect from Arthur C Clarke, this also provides a fascinating view into what the world was thinking of space exploration a decade and change before it happened. So many false assumptions and expectations. But the assumptions at least were not unreasonable given the science of the 1940s. Highly recommend.

I am a 64 year old white woman: not exactly Maejor’s typical audience demographic, I am sure. This offering must have been free because I cannot imagine adding it to my list otherwise. So, let me say how surprised I am that I thoroughly enjoyed this. Marjorie comes off as utterly sincere and genuine and his music is beautiful. It really resonated with me (not wanting to be punny; resonate is just the best word). I even bought the Vol 1: Frequency album and am looking forward to the other two. This is an impressive young man.

Fantastic Book but I'm Really Annoyed with Audible

The narrator does a superb job of depicting the various characters: male, female, robotic, alien. The story is excellent and the action moves at a terrific pace. It's hard to put down.

My gripe is with Audible. It becomes clear during the acknowledgements at the end of the book that there were illustrations included with the book including the ship designs. This is denied to the customer of the audio book because, unlike many other Audible offerings, no pdf is included with this book. Thanks a lot, Audbile! Now I have to buy the book again as a Kindle book. Had I know that I could have made the Kindle purchase first and then the Audible version would have been at a reduced price.

A different perspective revitalizes old theme

I tend to eschew WWII material. It is so over-talked about that I find most of it boring by this time. Yes, yes, I know it was an important time in history, etc. etc. So, I got this title reluctantly, might have even been a lesser evil for the monthly originals selection (by the way, that is an awful system: there are months where there is nothing I want and months where I want everything. Why can't one use credits on one month for another, but customer service says no).

I am so glad I did get it though. First of all, the perspective of how life was impacted at home was a fresh angle on an old topic. I'm sure this has been done before also, but the perspective lent itself well to the audio medium. The inclusion of in-person interviews either of surviving members of that generation or from recordings that were taken at the time, such as the call ins to the President, were priceless. I believe this is a purchase I will be listening to several times.

The one annoying thing was that this was prepared as a series of broadcasts and therefore the audible interrupts the flow with closing credits and previews. I think it should have been remastered to make a continuous flow. The credits do differ for certain segments, so maybe that is why the decision was to leave it broken up.

I love a good parody. A good parody is a love-letter to the subject of the joke. The description of this product said that the author was a fan of Lilian Jackson Braun and I'll just take that on faith. Because it wasn't obvious from this effort. If I hadn't read that in the description, I might have found some of the material mean. The main joke of the novel seems to be that Ms. Braun had a secret deviate sex life. Some of the elements from the Cat Who... series are present: there are two cats with Asian names who provide clues rarely. I did find it funny that they are junk food eaters instead of the gourmands in Ms. Braun's work; the main character is recognizable as the main character in the Cat Who... novels, but some of the other frequently recurring characters are merely referred to in passing (for example, Polly). In summary, it was interesting and even enjoyable, but I'm not likely to listen to it again. It wasn't really what I expected.
