Unique shorter stories series

I will lead with the fact I did receive a free copy to review this title. However This box set was still a unique breath of fresh air as i haven't personally ran into a setup like this before. the interview/interrogation/log progression of the story tracking the characters development from story to story was nice. I'm a lore/world building nerd and some of the small offhand comments made by the main character help to flesh out a lived in world and let you sink in to it and think about interesting little tangents as the story progresses. I deeply enjoyed the the performance of Jack V. as he gave personality where some narrators just read the words in front of them he added the depth of emotion as events developed like an actual person would. overall I would definitely listen to another story by either author or narrator again.

Good stories, good performance

This collection has three connected short stories that are largely worldbuilding stories. I really enjoyed them, especially the first two. Overall recommended.

Fantastic narration, unique writing style, FUN!

I am a big fan of Jack Voraces and this series uses his skills to the max. I love the more personal feeling of the main character talking directly to us (or interviewing others). Its such a unique take on the Sci-Fi genre and I hope to see more from this author.

monologues

The format of this big is it's greatest downfall. I am a fan of Jack Voraces for his excellent character voices, none of which we got to hear in this story as it it three books of monologues. The climax gets multicharacter dialogue which cam as a pleasant surprise after a bit of a slog. I think the first book was fine as a stage setting long prologue to the real story, but the next two books were in a format of a debrief and log recodings. if they story were told in real time perspective as events happened it would have been more exciting. the story itself was not bad, but I had a hard time trying to decide if it was supposed to be an action sci-fi that didn't quite deliver or if it was a series of comical anecdotes that didn't quite land because of the format. Either way I didn't have an emotional connection to the story because the few characters didn't have an emotional connection to who they were talking to. I look forward to the authors growth
