Historia
Captain Axel Finn has spent his life running salvage missions with an alien crew and their war bot. This motley group has found refuge on his ship from their own tumultuous pasts. But little do any of them know, beneath his gentle demeanor, their steadfast captain is far from the peace following, adventure seeking giant of a man they all love. His pacifist ethos meant to safeguard them has edged them to the brink of financial ruin and drawn dangerous enemies.

I like the premise if the story, the characters and their interactions, some humor helps.

Historia
The galaxy is doomed. Monkeys may be clever and too stubborn to give up, but Skippy The Idiot Who Got Played knows the harsh truth: this is a fight he can’t win. The odds are not only stacked against him, he was designed not to win this fight. Maybe he can salvage some faint memory of the civilizations that inhabit the galaxy, but those beings are doomed. Doomed. Including the Merry Band of Pirates.

Revisado: 03-31-24
I really enjoyed thus entry in the series although I think it should have been titled Failure Mode with a subtitle of 'Joe We Have A Problem!'. it is gull of the humor I have come to expect and it's great to finally me elders, looking toward to the next book although I am dreading the end of the series where the only way to get my Skippy fix is to reread or relisten to it.

Historia
United Nations Special Operations Command sent an elite expeditionary force of soldiers and pilots out on a simple recon mission, and somehow along the way they sparked an alien civil war. Now the not-at-all-merry band of pirates is in desperate trouble, again. Their stolen alien starship is falling apart, thousands of light years from home. The ancient alien AI they nicknamed Skippy is apparently dead, and even if they can by some miracle revive him, he might never be the same.

as always, Skippy did.
Revisado: 01-13-24
I absolutely love the byplay between Skippy and everyone. Skippy's sparky comments to everyone reminds me so much of the Great Gazoo from the Flintstones that I kinda feel a bit nostalgic about him. this is one of the best series with a AI character in it.

Historia
Miah Gray is a 27-year-old former army soldier living in rural New Hampshire with his sister, mother, and her boyfriend. He is plagued by PTSD, finding solace, but not redemption, with the aid of prescribed cannabis. All he wants to do is get high, relax with a good sandwich, and watch a meteor shower with his neighborhood crush, Jen. When the sun's light is blotted out the following morning and the world is plunged into darkness, Miah finds himself locked down with his family, covering windows with trash bags, lighting candles, and following the arcane rules of an ancient prophecy.

Historia
As a martial arts instructor, Nori has always had a simple purpose in life: Help underprivileged kids build confidence and self-discipline. Now she'll have to do so for everyone else, too. It all started with a mist, one that gave everyone stats and levels, but also disabled technology and transformed animals and humans into cybernetic horrors that preyed on the living. Within months of its inception, civilization had crumbled.

well worth listen
Revisado: 07-04-23
I really enjoyed the story, the author did not review Stat upgrades over and over again like so many others. The characters were likeable, you felt like you were there with them and growing. recommend you go for the ride and don't deeply analyze possible factual science and it will be a very enjoyable tale. ivouldnt stop until finished and then wanted more.

Interesting story
Revisado: 06-30-17
Would you listen to Thunderhead again? Why?
Because the story is a well written story and the characters are enjoyable and seem to help draw a person into the overall story line.
What does Scott Brick bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
The audio presentation gives a different perspective than just reading the book, Even though being a avid reader, I have picked up things by listening to audio narration that I have missed in story's before.
Any additional comments?
As this is a side story about one of the characters in the author's Special Agent Pendergast series, I do sort of miss his character but this is still a excellent stand alone novel as a offshoot story line.

Historia
Piers Anthony delivers another tale set in the best-selling world of Xanth, filled with magic, surprises, adventure, and a few puns. Here's what the author has to say about his new book: "Five Portraits is a kind of sequel to Board Stiff in that it picks up where the other leaves off, with the same characters. Apart from that, it's one of my favorites within the series.

Historia
"I'm actually a smart girl who would make any man an excellent wife. But no man sees that. No man is interested in my mind or personality, just my whatevers. So here is my wish: I'm board stiff. I want Adventure, Excitement, and Romance." So begins Piers Anthony's 38th Xanth novel, in which Irrelevant Candy looks at her reflection in the water of the shallow well and sees luxuriant midnight-black hair reaching down to her breathtakingly slender waist, matching the dark eyes in her lovely face.

Historia
A seemingly straightforward private case turns out to be much more complicated - and sinister - than Special Agent A. X. L. Pendergast ever could have anticipated. Pendergast, together with his ward, Constance Greene, travels to the quaint seaside village of Exmouth, Massachusetts, to investigate the theft of a priceless wine collection. But inside the wine cellar, they find something considerably more disturbing: a bricked-up niche that once held a crumbling skeleton.

I enjoyed this addition to the Pendergast series, I have been suspecting how it ended though. Lots of twists and turns throughout the story.
