Historia
On the edge of the galaxy, a diplomatic mission to an alien planet takes a turn when the Legionnaires, an elite special fighting force, find themselves ambushed and stranded behind enemy lines. They struggle to survive under siege, waiting on a rescue that might never come. In the seedy starport of Ackabar, a young girl searches the crime-ridden gutters to avenge her father's murder; not far away, a double-dealing legionniare-turned-smuggler hunts an epic payday; and somewhere along the outer galaxy, a mysterious bounty hunter lies in wait.

Loved book 1
Revisado: 05-08-23
I really enjoyed book 1 although it was a bit of a shoot em up. Book 2 not so much. Dark, somewhat confusing and sad. Finally just skipped to epilogue which told me everything I wanted to know.

Historia
It is 1969 and Glasgow is in the grip of the worst winter in decades, yet it is something else that has Glaswegians on edge: a serial killer whose name alone is enough to make them tremble with fear. The Quaker has killed another victim, snatching a young woman from a nightclub and dumping her body like trash in the back of a cold-water tenement. He leaves no clues, and the investigation has led police down one blind alley after another.

Historia
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.

Historia
When COVID-19 sweeps through New York City, Jamie Gray is stuck as a dead-end driver for food-delivery apps. That is, until Jamie makes a delivery to an old acquaintance, Tom, who works at what he calls “an animal rights organization”. Tom’s team needs a last-minute grunt to handle things on their next field visit. Jamie, eager to do anything, immediately signs on. What Tom doesn't tell Jamie is that the animals his team cares for are not here on Earth. Not our Earth, at at least. In an alternate dimension, dinosaur-like creatures named Kaiju roam a warm and human-free world.

Might have been good with different narrator
Revisado: 08-04-22
My husband and I treasure Scalzi books and save them for long road trips. I got this the minute it was available, and saved it till our July trip. We finally turned it off half way through. I have never been a great fan of Wil Wheaton, but this one was off the edge of the cliff. Horrible. When you are on a road trip and you can't stand listening anymore to an author you enjoy, you gotta know it's bad. There is not enough bad I can say about this version. Don't get hooked, and if you do, try it right away while the return window is still open. What a waste and disappointment.

but I found this book to be rather ho-hum. The narrator was so low key I kept forgetting to listen.

Historia
Over twenty years ago, the heiress Patricia Lockwood was abducted during a robbery of her family's estate, then locked inside an isolated cabin for months. Patricia escaped, but so did her captors - and the items stolen from her family were never recovered. Until now. On the Upper West Side, a recluse is found murdered in his penthouse apartment, alongside two objects of note: a stolen Vermeer painting and a leather suitcase bearing the initials WHL3. For the first time in years, the authorities have a lead - with the suitcase and painting both pointing them toward one man.

Revisado: 04-03-21
Win is not a nice guy. He does not have a winning personality. And he's supposed to be the good guy in the book. Just followin' a lead, ma'am. Good grief. Some of the villains in the book are more likeable.

Decent, just not very exciting
Revisado: 03-30-21
I really wanted to like this book, and it was good enough to listen to while I did chores, but I tuned out for chunks, fell asleep a couple of times and picked up where I was when I woke up, rather than needing to go back to find out what happened. It's kind of a "fill in the blanks" book, because they are so easy to fill in, or maybe you just don't need to.

Good bedtime story won't keep you awake
Revisado: 12-20-20
I loved Magpie Murders. It may just be my Covid ennui, but Moonflower Murders isn't keeping me engaged. The narration is lackluster, and the story is taking way too long to tell. Great bedtime story....good enough to keep my stress sedated, but not good enough to keep me awake.

Almost quit
Revisado: 07-16-18
I know some environmental types can be obnoxious and unreasonable, and some people from other places mean us harm and seem to be nut cases, but Box uses an awfully broad brush and makes some very harsh criticisms in this book. Otherwise, his usual good book.
