Historia
Academy graduate Natalya Regyri stood first in line for her pick of engineering officer jobs, until, at the graduation party, a classmate turned up dead. Now, betrayed by her friends and framed for murder, she must flee beyond the reach of the Confederation...and any semblance of civilized society. With a damaged second-hand ship and TIC interceptors dogging her step, she nets a smuggling contract that might just get her back on her feet and in control of her destiny. But only if she's willing to make an ore run back to the place she's wanted for murder.

A great, light space opera
Revisado: 03-24-23
This is a fun read. Nothing too serious, a little bit of mystery, a little bit of intrigue. I quite enjoyed it, and it was fun getting into this “world.”

But I am sure glad I did this time! Betty is a fantastic narrator. She really brings life to her characters and weaves a very entertaining story.

I wish it would have been good
Revisado: 12-30-22
I loved Hugh's newer books, so thought I'd try this one. I listened for several hours, hoping it would get good, but it did not. It's so bad, that I finally gave up. I'm thankful for Audible's return policy so that I was able to get my spent credit back. Get Wool or Sand, they are awesome. This one is a stinker.
I did get a smirk out of Molly's punny name though.

Light and enjoyable
Revisado: 09-20-22
I loved the book and Porter's narration, especially Sheldon's voicing. This is not a Heinlein-level book, but that's OK. It's great anyway for what it is - a light and funny listen. Worth your time, I say.

Historia
After Steve Jobs was unceremoniously dismissed from Apple, he turned his attention to a little-known graphics art company that he owned called Pixar. One day, out of the blue, Jobs called Lawrence Levy, a Harvard-trained lawyer and Silicon Valley executive to whom he had never spoken before, in the hope of persuading Levy to help him get Pixar on the right track. What Levy found in Pixar was a company on the verge of failure. To Pixar and Beyond is the extraordinary story of what happened next.

Great book
Revisado: 06-23-21
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The writing and the narration was very good. I jokingly think of it as “the financial history of Pixar“ since it is the CFO’s book and it is not at all what I expected when I started listening to it. Now I want to go on and find hey book about the creative history of Pixar. I’ll probably listen to Ed Catmull’s Creativity Inc. next.

Historia
There are some odd things about Nate’s new apartment. Of course, he has other things on his mind. He hates his job. He has no money in the bank. No girlfriend. No plans for the future. So while his new home isn’t perfect, it’s livable. The rent is low, the property managers are friendly, and the odd little mysteries don’t nag at him too much. At least, not until he meets Mandy, his neighbor across the hall, and notices something unusual about her apartment. And Xela’s apartment. And Tim’s. And Veek’s.

Excellent mystery
Revisado: 04-09-21
This book was full of mysteries and exploration. It has several twists that will surprise you. Highly recommended! I must say that I pegged the ending at about 5 chapters before it ended. It was what I was hoping for.
I have never listened to a book narrated by Ray Porter that I did not love. If you’re not a Porter fan, you should be.

Historia
I wasn't always this adorable, badass superhero you see before you. Well, I was, but there was a shady side to me, a part of my past I don't like to talk about. And that's what led me to Supralines, the best superhero school in the Oram galaxy. What follows is a bit of insanity, a bit of love, and a bit of self-discovery. Join me, and I promise you won't regret it!

Big groan
Revisado: 03-11-21
Good lord, I'm glad I didn't pay for this. It has potential and the characters are interesting, but the literal porn thrown in every few chapters was unneeded and unwanted. The characters need to be taken over by a good writer. The whole book is trash that I wish would have been better.

There's a reason We Are Legion was named Audible's Best Science Fiction Book of 2016: Its irresistibly irreverent wit! Bob Johansson has just sold his software company for a small fortune and is looking forward to a life of leisure. The first item on his to-do list: Spending his newfound windfall. On an urge to splurge, he signs up to have his head cryogenically preserved in case of death. Then he gets himself killed crossing the street. Waking up 117 years later, Bob discovers his mind has been uploaded into a sentient space probe with the ability to replicate itself.

This is such an exciting universe! It has all kinds of great sci-fi references that I loved and I can’t recommend it enough. The performance was excellent and thoroughly enjoyable.

Took me back
Revisado: 08-07-18
Listening to this book really took me back to my childhood. I read many of the Pern books as a kid, and really loved this. I can't wait to re-discover more of them! I had no idea they were available on Audible. I enjoyed this one so much. The performance was great and it was a joy listening to it.

Historia
Before cell phones that fit in the palm of your hand and slim laptops that fit snugly into briefcases, computers were like strange, alien vending machines. They had cryptic switches, punch cards, and pages of encoded output. But in 1975, a young engineering wizard named Steve Wozniak had an idea: What if you combined computer circuitry with a regular typewriter keyboard and a video screen?

Revisado: 02-16-18
This was a really great book in the beginning and middle, but the ending gets a little fluffy and disorganized. It was great hearing all about the founding of Apple, but the end of the book could be tightened up in some places and needs to be expanded in other places, I think. Would read again.
