The Middle of Nowhere

Written by David Gerrold

Narrated by Chris Sorenson

The Morthans were physically and mentally superior. Descended from humans, they were now, literally, “more-than"human … and considered the human race to be little better than animals. They would stop at nothing to conquer the remaining human-controlled worlds.

Docked for repairs after a harrowing battle with a Morthan ship, Jonathan Korie and his crew discover they have a Morthan imp aboard— a Morthan weapon so quick they have no chance of catching it, so clever they have no hope of outsmarting it and so deadly they have no choice but to try.

Reviews for The Middle of Nowhere

[uschoice · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Most annoying narrator ever. The voice drips with condescension or disinterest. Listen @ 1.2x for best results.

Smart, funny, action packed. Second of Starship Wolf trilogy. Ala Heinlein with a touch of Terry Pratchett.

Gilmore girls of the outer space is how I would choose to describe this book. Basically going from room to room in the ship and having discussions. A little action at the end but otherwise just talking. Was just ok but probably written for women.

Overall I'm enjoying the series as a casual read. The character and plot development do not always sit consistently with each other. Additionally, there are characters who seem go through moments of being well written to just average over the course of a chapter.
I'll continue to read the series as a casual story to fill in a lazy afternoon.

2nd books are difficult apparently. This book was long and mostly pointless.

The narrator has a nice voice, if only he could speak English...

I’ve really, really enjoyed this series so far. When you’re done, here’s a link for the fanfare of their theme song on YouTube: https://youtu.be/7pXSKW8mkRM. From 0:55-3:05

I don't know if I just listened to a book, or a lecture. And the idea of an author adding an at the beginning is just arrogant. Let the reader decide how good you are. Bragging beforehand makes you expect more than you produce. And half of the book is a mobius search. A real waste of time for the reader. In the Air Force, we used to send newbies on a search for flight line. The author needs to spend less time patting himself on the back. I realize it was someone else giving the worship ovation, but it was the author that added it to the book. Never pat yourself on the back. It will make you believe you are better than you are, so you don't improve.
