Publisher's Summary:

We hoped, desperately, that they came in peace.

We were wrong.

Thirty years after the Second Swarm War devastated Earth and its colonies, a powerful, mysterious alien ship has invaded our space. Entire planets are ravaged, whole moons shattered. Any starship sent against it never came home.

But Admiral Proctor, a war hero from our last brush with annihilation, is called out of retirement to take the reins of humanity's newest starship. The ISS Independence and her crew, with Admiral Proctor at the helm, will stand as Earth's last defense. Somehow, against all odds, they will save us, even when our enemy is not just an unstoppable alien ship, but a ghost from humanity's past bent on its utter destruction.

And if they fail, we fall.

For good.

Space drama very little tech

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

Most of this book is about the conflict that occurs between humans. Space is only the backdrop.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

The last chapter of the book actually started to get interesting ... started.

What about Greg Tremblays performance did you like?

Easy to listen to, good vocal range for different characters, nice reading speed.

Did Independence inspire you to do anything?

Write this review to remind me not to buy book 2.

Every goodbye is not gone

Hero soon become legends and the people that know them have the real story. But great moments need a hero, may the legends continue.

Must read... narrator excellent!

Very good, deep weaved story, interesting characters, excellent writing. Narrator is superb! He does a fantastic job. He will be one of my favorites from now on. Will definitely read the next books and look for more from this author.

Great new sfi opera trilogy. Must read.

Nick Webb has taken the time to build an exciting and dramatic core story that allows for both human/human and human/alien intertwined plots.

Thanks Nick for a great new beginning.

No action

loved previous series for the excellent action sequences. Unfortunately this series has very little, leaving you with a boring story. IMO

It's never wise to talk to strangers...and that goes double when they're dead. Unfortunately, seventeen-year-old Anna Morgan has no choice. Resting on a park bench, touching the turnstile at the Metro station - she never knows where she'll encounter a ghost. These mental hitchhikers are the reason Anna has been tossed from one foster home and psychiatric institution to the next for most of her life.

When a chance touch leads her to pick up the insistent spirit of a girl who was brutally murdered, Anna is pulled headlong into a deadly conspiracy that extends to the highest levels of government. Facing the forces behind her new hitcher's death will challenge the barriers, both good and bad, that Anna has erected over the years and shed light on her power's origins. And when the covert organization seeking to recruit her crosses the line by kidnapping her friend, it will discover just how far Anna is willing to go to bring it down.

Ghosts, and other paranormal gifts

The Delphi Trilogy, Book 1

By: Rysa Walker

Narrated by: Kate Rudd

This was such an awesome book. A girl can see and talk with ghosts which has caused problems all her life. Sounds like a normal story but it is not. This is a fresh take on the theme. She tries to help this very insistent ghost. From this, it leads to almost getting killed herself. Then getting kidnapped. It is a fast and furious story with lots of things going on at one time. A wonderful cast of characters and a twisted plot that leads you on many roads that cross. A fun ride and loved it so much. A touch of romance, lots of paranormal fun, and suspense. Ends nice but ready for the next book and I am eager for that.

It is an audible book and the narrator is so awesome, the voices and inflections are perfect! Made the book so exciting. Thanks!

I liked the story but the performance was distracting

The story was very captivating and new enough to hold my attention. However, the narrator's way of enunciating each word drove me crazy. It's not so much that she read it poorly, it's that she read it too properly. The conversations were stilted, almost as if someone were reading who spoke English as a second language (nothing wrong with that) and they wanted to make sure and get each word correct. It did not have conversational flow I guess. I think if there are more books in the series I my prefer to read them myself.

Excited!

I recommend this one for sci-fi/fantasy YA followers. It has enough tinges of the YA common themes, which we either anticipate or should collectively admit are guilty pleasure such as: angst, awkward romance, dysfunctional families, distrust of authority, copious references to pop culture and lavish cars. I'm excited for this new series because it has hints of all of the above but it's not (thankfully) the new Twilight, Hunger Games, or Divergent. It's different and the writing good enough to make me wish the next in the series will come soon.

Wow! A unique reading experience!

Fascinating, completely original concept! Set slightly in the future with a main character who sees the world from her own (and her minds guests) point of view, this is a mystery, a thriller, a sci-fi, and a conspiracy theory novel all rolled into one. I listened to the audio version in a single day. I cant wait to start the sequel.

good

it was good. not guite my type of read.

Title: The Citadel

Subtitle: Mirror World Series, Book 2

Author: Alexey Osadchuk

Narrator: Kyle McCarley

Format: Unabridged

Length: 11 hrs and 21 mins

Language: English

Release date: 09-27-16

Publisher: Tantor Audio

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 771 votes

Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Sci-Fi: Contemporary

Publisher's Summary:

If you're a warrior seeking glorious feats, we need you! The walls of the Maragar Citadel are always in need of heroes!

Or are you a wizard in search of forgotten lore? One visit to our Ancient Library will reveal you many a great mystery!

Or are you an online player craving excitement? Then you'd better hurry! The Maragar Citadel is rife with adventure-choose one to your liking!

Performing deeds of online valor is the last thing on Oleg's mind, though. Neither does he care about any ancient lore. He's never trusted adventure, anyway. Mirror World is no place for the likes of him. Still, he's here to stay - at the demand of Reflex Bank, which has granted him a loan for his daughter's hospital treatment. Which is the only reason he's joined the ranks of the defenders of the Maragar Citadel.

Members Reviews:

Story could be ...

The story had lots of potential and it was fun to follow, but the pace and unneeded material slowed it up.

I had to speed it up just to keep from getting bored.

Plus I am confused by Oleg. At times he is an idiot with no common sense and other times he is bright. At one moment he is scared of everything (even though he cannot take damage) and next he is brave. He has money issues, and wants to and needs to save every penny, but then he throws cash around like it is nothing. The inconsistency was annoying.

story gets better, narattor still anoyingly slow

Any additional comments?

For a second book in a series its good, the story gets better, main character gets more debt. only thing that annoys me is that the narrator is reading a bit slow.

chopped up

My only problem is that it feels like one book split up into several. I found it very enjoyable though.

Nevermind... nevermind... nevermind...

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

sure, it was a decent and entertaining book

Any additional comments?

The main character has started to get incredibly repetitive. His catchphrase.. Never mind. He says it about 1-5 times per chapter and now i cringe every time i hear it. Either the writer has started getting lazy after the first book or else I just started noticing his repetitive style the more of his writing I listen to. either way I hope the third book is better but so far its not. Still a good book. still gonna finish the series but it could have been great if the writing wasn't so blah.

good

Well it was a well done book. The one thing that bugged me is that I wish I would speed up the narration just a bit. The narration is to slow, and it bugged me.

Good if you like a bunch of short stories

I mistakenly picked this up thinking it was a single story that continued for the entirety of the audiobook, upon discovering it was a collection of short stories, I returned it. they are well written though and you might enjoy them.

Another great set of short stories.

Simply amazing book. Scott Brick did a great job narrating all the stories. The only downside was the stories that had cliff hanger endings that left you wanting to hear more. A must have for any fan of the halo universe.

A great book

I highly recomend it. Every story was well written and intresting with the exeption of the last one which while decent enough in its own right really threw out one of the cool mysteries of the halo universe. Spoilers. The last story confirmed that the forerunners became primitives and then died out which I think is a massive waste of oppurtunity.

Dissatisfied

This was a great let down from Evolutions. There are so many loose ends it is no even funny

Spectacular!!

Wow...

Ive heard all the halo books here from audible, i must admit I'm a bit of a fanatic.. Ive gone through the books in chronological order about 10 times from the forerunner trilogy to Halo Last Light. I love the halo universe, and it goes without saying I've been absolutely CRAVING new literature to the point where i started writing my own Halo book. Fractures contains stories that are exciting, emotional, compelling, and rich. I highly recommend this book to anyone that loves halo. The last story is such a treat.

Title: 36 Hours

Subtitle: The Blackout Series, Book 1

Author: Bobby Akart

Narrator: Kevin Pierce

Format: Unabridged

Length: 5 hrs and 5 mins

Language: English

Release date: 08-22-16

Publisher: Bobby Akart Inc.

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 1074 votes

Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Sci-Fi: Contemporary

Publisher's Summary:

This is not the story of preppers with stockpiles of food, weapons, and a hidden bunker. This is the story of Colton Ryman, his stay-at-home wife, Madison, and their teenage daughter, Alex. In 36 Hours, the Ryman family and the rest of the world will be thrust into the darkness of a post-apocalyptic world.

A catastrophic solar flare, an EMP - a threat from above to America's soft underbelly below - is hurtling toward our planet.

The Rymans have never heard of preppers and have no concept of what prepping entails. But they're learning, and they are running out of time. Their faith will be tested, their freedom will be threatened, but their family will survive.

An EMP, naturally generated from our sun in the form of a solar flare, has happened before, and it will happen again, in only 36 hours.

This is a story about how our sun, the planet's source of life, can also devastate our modern world. It's a story about panic, chaos, and the final straws that shattered an already thin veneer of civilization. It is a warning to us all - never underestimate the depravity of man.

What will you do when the clock strikes zero?

Midnight is forever.

Members Reviews:

A "Pre-Apocalyptic" book with tons of action

A fictional non-fiction book (well Akart and many other think that something similar to what 36 Hours is based on will happen in the near future). The sun is the giver of life, but what happens if it suddenly wants to take that life away. That is what this book tries to show. 36 Hours is a book about a non-prepper realizing the prepper ways.

In one of the first non-prepper (but kind of prepper) books I've read, Kevin Pierce still shines. He definitely has one of the easiest to listen to voices. Especially in books where the world is falling apart.

My favorite parts of this novel were all of the different scientific sections. You can tell that Akart really did his research before putting words to the page. The science feels real, which in turn makes this book incredibly terrifying. I kept thinking, oh wow, well that's terrifying, every time that Akart would have the characters explain the science behind something.

Parts of this book could almost be used as a prepper's guide (which is what Madison basically reads to get prepared). And I think that prepper's and non-prepper's alike would really enjoy this.

36 Hours: A terrifying look at would happen in the hours leading up to a direct hit of an EMP sent directly from the sun.

My only issue is that this was really the "prep" book, the next book will have all of the goodies in it. This was, for lack of a better term, a "Pre-Apocalyptic" book.

I was given a copy of this audiobook in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion.

BEANS, BAND-AIDES AND BULLETS

PIGS GET FAT, HOGS GET SLAUGHTERED

When it comes to this type of book, this is close to the top of the list. I still like the BORROWED WORLD better. This is entertaining and I did learn stuff. The beginning might have to many lectures for some. Akart did some research on the sun and he is eager to share it.

LEFT VS RIGHT

As an author you have the right to talk as much politics as you want and most do. For years it was mostly the liberal side that did most of the talking.

There are plans for a 8th book.

Finishing work on my current book. "SquadCom-13" Book 2.

After this one will write "Play to Live-8" - from the author.

I guess it's over?

I'm glad I got some sort of closure to the series but in my opinion this boom felt extremely rushed. I mean, previous books managed to go on for pages just explaining loot management. this one took a gigantic amount of unresolved plot and tied it up in the messiest bow I've ever seen. worth a read but don't expect too much.

Tedious and predictable.

Disappointed in this series. Rus took a genre with great potential and turns it into a comic book.

the last book was ok. it was very rushed

it was rushed to the conclusion, was expecting a bigger battle at the end, disappointed

That's it?

I hate endings like this. It felt so rushed with so many questions unanswered. The final fight is something I wouldn't even call a fight. Seemed almost like d. Rus didn't know of how to end it and settled with whatever.

Now we have Space Opera!

Second book is better than the first. We get much more personable characters that learn and grow as they go through the world. Also we finally get Space Battles with Space Marines that last for more than a paragraph. the Author has achieved Space Opera.

I also enjoyed the nods to various other authors in the genre. Maple syrup as a worthless commodity is funny (nod to Ringo), Engage! I am looking forward to the next book.

I thought this series had the potential to be his best

And I believe that is still the case. This is a great series and I cannot wait for the next book!

Still too preachy, and not too interesting

If you made it through book 1 of this series, you already know Nuttall's opinions on society and politics. If you are here, you have read past all that for the story. You accepted the moon base being established in about a month, and that humans were exploring further than the Solar System. In this book, taking place 50 years later, Kevin Stuart has become Ambassador at Large and his brother Steve has given up governing the humans and gone off with his wife on trading missions, so does not appear in this book.

The main scenarios in the story focus on 2 young Marine recruits, Martin and Yolanda; then there's Kevin and Sally, and Professor Scudder. It is this Professor who delivers the John Galt radio broadcast in this book, lecturing us on Nuttall's take on education, artificial intelligence, border control and immigration, the "weaponization of the word 'racist'" wherein one must prove one's innocence, and the Divide and Rule principle in which all groups are set against each other so that the politicians can stay in power.

Martin is a young man of color from a ghetto, yet has no ghetto mannerisms or language, or accent (sorry, Mr. Rummel). Yolanda is a half Mexican, half Japanese Cinderella with tons of brains. Their friendship is merely another platform from which to speechify about race relations. Kevin and Sally, what to say, what to say? Kevin is an unlikely ambassador, and seems to be turning into a despot like the admiral in the author's Barbarian books. Sally, Sally, what in blazes are you doing out there, and how did you get there? She's about the only Human on some alien planet working for some information broker Jabba the Hutt.

The Russian cluster. The ground shakes as the enemy approaches. The angered gods frown as they look down from the sky.

Intelligence agencies are locked in a brutal fight. Hundreds of thousands of sentient beings happily slaughter each other. This is no longer a game quest nor a petty fight between clans over some land rich in resources. This is war! A war of civilizations, religions, and all the dimensions of the world.

The Earth weeps in pain. The astral beings turn away in horror. Burning castle towers collapse to the ground. Stones melt in the heat. The enemy is coming. Refugees flood the Valley. Alliance members are joining forces.

Max is not just a clan leader anymore. He is the Chief, the head of the resistance. And you have no choice but to fight; you are the hope of the children and the thousands of innocents. They have entrusted you with their lives.

Decision time...

Any additional comments?

As my gateway LITRPG "Play to Live" was the chosen one and went full jarjarbinks... This book is just "okay". Most people say stop after book III maybe IV. I would agree; however, if you've already plowed this far I think you should power through V for the finality of the battle and then make a decision to continue on with VI or VII. Prepare for heavy Russian propaganda, cussing/sexism, and the author's thoughts on social issues.

I was wondering why this book received such low reviews on audible compared to VI and VII, but now that I have completed the series (book 8 still pending) it makes sense. The people rating VI and VII are the only ones left and they seem to actually like the new direction D. Rus is going in. Personally, If I was recommending this series I would tell people to read books I-V and then decide. VI is easily the weakest book in the series and VII was better but just ok. I feel invested at this point so I'll probably get 8 when it comes out just because I can't look away from the train wreck this series has become. D. Rus has cleary decided to move this series into some kind of cyberpunk/Russian nationalism platform with a light sprinkling of high fantasy and occasionally he remembers he should put a RPG element in the story somewhere. Sadly the series is drifting further and further away from the elements that made it one of the gold standard LITRPG series. Having completed book 7, I guess I understand why he brought all the "real world" elements into a virtual reality based book/world, but it ruined this series for me.

Hopefully, "The Way of the Shaman", "The Land", "Patch 17" and "Awaken Online" continue to deliver. I also found "The Gam3" surprisingly entertaining. If you found Max's recent angsty dialogue annoying and frustrating definitely skip "The Otherlife" series.

Awwww Man....

Any additional comments?

I freaking LOVED the first 4 books of this series, and then I just couldn't wait for more, so it actually prompted me to purchase a few other series from this specific unique genre (which ended up being quite good for the majority of them) but this was the one that set the bar, and set it HIGH... That said... This continuation of the series was awful... It was literally HARD to listen to the whole audiobook...

More AlterWorld

I waited to listen to The War, and The Battle, after reading some of the negative reviews, I think the lag time between the fourth release and five and six had something to do with it also, but I finally got around to them both and thought the continuing story was interesting. In fact the majority of the reviews are positive.

Yes the characters of Bagirah and Tigress are flipped, but that is only a small part of the story and I think anyone that has listened this far can easily adjust; and yes there is an undertone of misogyny, not giving excuses for any type of degradation towards women, but this is from the perspective of a Russian writer. After all this series depicts the Russian cluster and the Dark One as the good guys and have right on their side while the Light Ones are evil; hows that for a flip.

For those who just want to see Max go on quest after quest and just level up this isnt a video game; the story is progressing, and Maxs character is growing. The series has shown him start from nothing to the head of his Pantheon and each progression hes had to overcome greater obstacles, even taking on gods, I think thats cool; but now the story is getting even more interesting. As had been referenced in the previous books the veil between the Virtual world and Reality was ready to tear. In The War, the veil finally comes down and for Max and all of those around him its a new world.

The ending of The War, is surprising and I cant way to see what happens next. If you like this series I think we should support these Audio books so they will release number six, The Ultimatum, and listen to how this series ends. Its already out in print but I really like the narrator, Michael Goldstrom, and want to hear the rest of the story from him.

So many holes

Does not feel like it's even the same author. Even within the book there are so many plot holes and changes in tone that I was often confused.

There is also a even more xenophobia and sexism than any of the previous books.

***Spoilers and examples***

The cats tigress and bagheer are mixed up.

Often forgets about the main characters abilities. For example, Laith does not have his temple mana regen and runs out of mana at times.

At one point they are using the cave to help the armies. In the next big battle they have totally forgotten about it.

The whole battle with Loth's army seems too piece meal and hastily written.

Stop at book 4

Any additional comments?

I really enjoyed this series through book 4.

I hate Zombie stories! I LOVE these Authors!

When I first started the series I was thinking what the heck all I do is listen to space operas and James Patterson books. Then I got into this book the sheer military prowess captivated me not only was it realistic science fiction. It was downright hard-core military. These authors got military doctrine down. They even didn't screw up the Navy doctrine. Everything was precise down to the letter. This prequel is no different I cannot wait for them to finish the story however but I appreciate this prequel perfect perfect perfect. I recommend anybody who loves sheer military doctrine along with a good solid storyline to do this series. You will not put it down, you will not stop listening to it. All you will be able to do is bite your nails and wait for the next book to come out because this is the most exciting storyline I have ever listen to in the last three years. Thank you Mr. Fuchs and thank you for all that you do for us military guys! PHOORAH!

SSG, US ARMY

DAV-Retired

I have to give it to the author

This guy is one of the masters of the Zombie genre. I love this series. I love the technical details of the operators. The statements they make in the heat of battle, as well as in the midst of the suck, strike such a familiar military tone. Super suspenseful and always filled with characters you hope will live the turn another page...

Best one yet

Best book in the series, I was worried when I saw It was listed as a prequel. I shouldn't have doubted.

On the edge of your seat impressive!

This is writing; this is the way an apocalypse end-of-the-world treatise should be written. Excellent! The excitement and action started at the prologue and didnt let go until the epilogue. Triple Nickel is our boys against The Stronghold of Al-Shabab in The Horn of Africa. Book #8.5 Nemesis is a standalone novel, as an intro to the series, or at any point alongside the main series. The book chronicles the war between Triple Nickel, Al-Shabab, and the hoard of undead making their way towards The Stronghold. It is a great bit of writing, totally captivating, on the edge of your seat impressive. R.C. Bray is awesome as well. A definite must read to any military apocalypse survival fan whether youre following the entire series or not. Perfect five!

great book

says it's 8.5 a stand alone book of the series but it's part of the series with a great back story
