This book is well written and has an excellent writer. It’s so good I listen to the whole thing in a day. As a lifelong science-fiction fan, I’d give this a 10 out of 10!

Great book - extremely weird narration. Lots of unnecessary pauses and apparent audio splices. At first, I nearly gave up on it because it was difficult to focus over the bizarre read but I persevered and it is worth it. It would behoove this author to find someone else to provide a narration because this one is going to turn a lot of people off. “Then she....... turned to the left and saw that .............. he was there waiting ... for her. They walked ......... off and lived happily ...... ever after”.

Story was interesting. The narrator was terrible. Weird cadence and lots of strange pauses, mispronounced words, and accents that make no sense.

It's believable and well written, am looking forward to the next instalment.
