Easy listen, coming of age book
Revisado: 09-22-21
Ideal for young, idealistic readers. Great concept on changing the world with a sci-fi twist. Simple casual dialogue completes this book characters are quickly defined as good or evil or neutral. My dislikes would be very simplistic world concepts and solutions leaning on Syfy mystical technology quite a bit.

Andrea Vernon always thought she would spend her life living in Paris writing thought-provoking historical novels all day and sipping wine on the Seine all night. But the reality is she's drowning in debt, has no prospects, and is forced to move back to Queens, where her parents remind her daily that they are very interested in grandchildren. Then, one morning, she is kidnapped, interviewed, and hired as an administrative assistant by the Corporation for UltraHuman Protection. Superheroes for hire, using their powers for good. What could possibly go wrong?

The dialog was so simplistic “he said”. Yet so much of it. Their was one redeeming character you Wheeled Southern Saying to a LOL LEVEL. However it was a long stretch between them.

It begins at a Paris auction house, with a favor granted by an old high school friend to geologist Philip Mercer: the opportunity to buy a rare diary written during the French attempt at digging the Panama Canal. But Mercer isn't the only one who wants it. Three Chinese assassins have been dispatched to get it, forcing Mercer into a subterranean game of cat and mouse that takes him from the hellish maze of l'empire de la mort and through the sewers of Paris.

If your looking for action this is for you. Every detail of the action scenes has been worked out in detail. It’s hard to catch your breath during all these running gun battles. Could use just a little more story

Breaks from the Series
Revisado: 03-26-18
Is there anything you would change about this book?
I have listened to every book I could get in this series. Really enjoyed them.
This one was a little too much drama overcoming the impossible, time after time. .
What could Jamie McFarlane have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Personally the it has to many Peaks and valleys over the top drama against impossible odds
What about Mikael Naramore’s performance did you like?
The performance is first rate, best of the best..
Could you see Corsair Menace being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?
Earlier books would be much better.

If Nick James is right, the Tipperary solar system is about to become the busiest trading hub in the galaxy. To sweeten the pot, the cloud-city of Lèger Nuage is offering free warehouse space to qualified traders. Of course, nothing's as simple as it seems. Just like Earth's Old West, the Tipperary system is as full of promise as it is Buccaneers who are happy to prey on the weak. No one expects it to be easy, but deceit, piracy, and murder kindle the pioneering spirit in each of them.

Earth is conquered. Sol is lost. One ship is tasked to free them. One Captain to save them all. When an alien armada destroys the United Earth Space Force and takes control of the human homeworld, newly reinstated Captain Annette Bond must take her experimental hyperspace cruiser Tornado into exile as Terra's only interstellar privateer. She has inferior technology, crude maps, and no concept of her enemy, but the seedy underbelly of galactic society welcomes her so long as she has prizes to sell and money to spend.

Imagine a ship the size of a planet. It has an atmosphere of methane, but there is no water. Mysterious and dark, it sails through a gateway, leaving a path open to the most implacable enemies that mankind and the aliens of the Milky Way Galaxy have ever face. Genetically tailored, symbiotic body armor protects the human commandos that are to be dropped on the metallic surface. A trooper in his armor, with surgically enhanced, neuro-fiber speed, is the deadliest grunt in the universe.

Tuff guy runs the space troopers
Revisado: 03-20-16
The narrator is very talented, easy to listen to. Plot drags you through every tuff guy move and his limited thoughts. Hard to engage with the main character as he has little to no empathy.

History and Fiction Merge
Revisado: 01-03-16
If you could sum up Cryptonomicon in three words, what would they be?
Adventure,History,Understanding.Generations cone together in this rich story.

If you know the history there are some laughs along the way,
What was one of the most memorable moments of Cryptonomicon?
When the characters interact with Historic Figures. There are some Laughs
What does William Dufris bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
His performence is wonderful, will look for him is future reads
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Informed, at 20 hours we had time for some laughs and some tears. Came away with faith in mankind
