may be my last one

I don't think I will partaking of any more Galaxy's edge novels. Last was very disappointing. It was as if they cobbled together a bunch of short stories without any flow. And then over an hour of "discussion" at the end just to add to the length of the book. Can't see using a credit for this when you can get almost twice as much for the same credit with other books.

Overall very good with just a couple of exceptions

Revisado: 08-27-20

I really like getting the back story on these characters.
In fact, would have liked more, but that is probably coming.
More books = more $$$

Only exception to good narration was the cringeworthy “Cores”man instead of coreman
But could have been worse could have been corpsman. Heck even pres Obama got that wrong.
So that is ok
Lt Owens character may never forgive the attempt at an accent however, that was tough to get through 😀

But I liked it for the good story.

1st disappointing story in the GE universe

Revisado: 08-20-20

Sorry but I just couldn’t appreciate this story as well as all the others I’ve listened to

Rummel does his usual good job but when I hear him I think I will always hear BlackJack

What Star Wars should have been...

Revisado: 12-17-18

A very complex and riveting storyline that will have you wanting to go back and listen again, to the other books in the series, to see what you might have missed the first time.
My only criticism is there are a few parts that noticeably borrow images from the Star Wars universe. They are not needed. This universe can stand on its own very well, thank you.
I have thoroughly enjoyed the series and can’t wait for more. Great character development and a wonderfully crafted storyline allow this series to take its place as one of my all time favorites.

If Star Wars and Dune had a baby...

Revisado: 04-28-18

Complex, but wonderfully listenable. Subtly nuanced throughout, when you finish you will immediately want to hear it again to pick up all the possible things you may have missed first time through.
This reminds me of the original Star Wars movie before the franchise began to be concerned more with marketing products than telling a story.
Compare to Expanse for a feel for the development of characters, you find out just enough to be interested but know that there has to be a great backstory. Well Done!

Exceptional

Revisado: 09-18-15

I am usually quite critical with the reviews that I have written, but in this case I can find little fault.
The writing and performance were great and the story was well done.
Wish it was longer. It will be hard to wait for the sequel.

An acceptable waste of many hours

Revisado: 07-09-15

...if your a fan of scifi docudramas without any significant character development. Think of it as a cross between Jean Auel's Painted Caves and a Ken Burns PBS special. If you've ever been to one of those movies that you kept waiting for it to "get good" and that time never arrived then well this is the literary equivalent. I will not even mention the character from Queens with the southern accent. Don't listen to this book around the kids either because every other sentence was interspersed with needless colorful language...I guess to make the characters sound more military? I will say that it filled the time on my way back and forth to work for a considerable period so I gave it 3 stars overall out of consideration for the authors feelings and what had to be a good bit of research time spent compiling some of the details.
