Publisher's Summary:

In A.D. 2039, a prodigious 17-year-old, Elliott, is assigned to work on a global software initiative his deceased grandfather helped found. Project Alexandria is intended to provide the entire world secure and equal access to all accumulated human knowledge. All forms of print are destroyed in good faith, to ensure everyone has equal footing, and Elliott knows he must soon part with his final treasure: a book of Shakespeare's complete works gifted him by his grandfather.

Before it is destroyed, Elliott notices something is amiss with the book, or rather Project Alexandria. The two do not match, including an extra sonnet titled "Day Moon".

When Elliott investigates, he uncovers far more than he bargained for. There are sinister forces backing Project Alexandria who have no intention of using it for its public purpose. Elliott soon finds himself on the run from federal authorities and facing betrayals and deceit from those closest to him.

Following clues left by his grandfather, with agents close at hand, Elliott desperately hopes to find a way to stop Project Alexandria. All of history past and yet to be depend on it.

A Great Read!

Any additional comments?

Such a great read! I don't typically read a ton of dystopian fiction but I do enjoy a good dystopian every once in a while, and it was absolutely fabulous to read the strong Christian element in this book (a rare find in the dystopian genre) I think that was my favorite part of the book! I also loved the thread of romance that was woven into this story.

The writing style was a bit literary for my taste, and there were times that I would have liked a bit more action and a bit less description, but overall this was a very enjoyable story that held my attention throughout!

I was glad to discover this new-to-me author, and would definitely read more of his work in the future. I am looking forward to the next book in this series!

Publisher's Summary:

Earth has been invaded by aliens....

Colonization is underway....

A pocket of humanity survives. Amber Lee just has to live long enough to find it....

Following a cataclysmic event that no one on Earth saw coming, lawyer Amber Lee awakes in London to find that the city and seemingly the entire population of the UK has been literally vaporized over one night during the summer Bank Holiday weekend - a surprise alien invasion that the news stations call "The Event". She sets off across the city, now slowly being taken over by an unknown alien lifeform, to her now deserted family home in West Wales.

With all hope fading of finding anyone else alive, she picks up a radio transmission coming from a nearby farm, and sets off to discover if the individual responsible for the transmission is still alive.

Miraculously the farm owner, John, has also survived the mysterious event and he has been picking up radio transmissions from a group of scientists in Nevada, USA. With nowhere to go, and the alien menace closing in on the farm, Amber and John flee to the coast, with the intention of embarking on a voyage across the Atlantic to the west coast of America in the hope of finding the only other known survivors. The only mode of transport available to them however is a large oil tanker, The Nostrum, which was in the process of leaving port to deliver its cargo of crude oil, when the cataclysm struck.

Amber and John manage to board the tanker, but they soon discover however that they are not travelling alone, and the seemingly impossible voyage quickly turns into a journey from hell, which has virtually no chance of succeeding....

This is the second book in the Vaporized series. If you enjoy science fiction adventure novels, then jump into Amber's shoes and enjoy the ride, but don't forget to take your motion sickness tablets before you start listening!

Please proofread!

I liked this story and I absolutely loved the first one. With that said, I had to rate this lower because the errors were too distracting. I am the furthest thing from an English major, but the mistakes were obvious. Using the wrong homophones or not capitalizing John half the time, were a bit much. On one page, there was a sentence break in mid thought as if the author accidentally hit the return button a couple times. A good suggestion is to have someone else read through your work before you self publish.

Excellent series

Excellent series

Vaporized II leaves one wanting for Vaporized III.

Great followup book by SI Rosser. As with other books by Mr. Rosser, I can hardly wait for the next installment of this series.

Members Reviews:

Really pretty good

I got this book for three reasons:

- I love the narrator

- It was super cheap (free e-book + 99-cent audio)

- The title made me go, "Okay, I have to see what this is about."

I was expecting a humorous sci-fi adventure, and it was that. But there was a surprising amount of philosophical musings on things like equality and the role of porn in society. These didn't derail the story too badly, but they did slow things down a bit, which is why I'm giving it 3 stars instead of 4. Though I got the sense that this commentary was most of the reason the author wrote the book. The relationships between the characters were nice.

As a cheap, quick listen, it's definitely worth the read. After the book, there's a commentary by the author on porn, which looks at things from a humanistic/evolutionary perspective. Not sure that part really added anything to the fiction, and the book could have done without it.

This is a sci-fi hoot! Regular guy, aliens, FBI

By: Peter Cawdron

Narrated by: MacLeod Andrews

Alien Space Tentacle Porn by Peter Cawdron is another book that proves I am on the right track when I follow this great author! This book is a hoot! A regular guy, minding his own business, somehow gets caught up in some craziness. He sees a guy get shot in the head in front of him, the dead guy's sister enlists his help to drag his body around, doing strange things to it, leaves him with a gun after she shoots at the FBI, and on it goes.... later in the holding cell in jail, along with a drunk, the girl strips naked and has him splash soapy water on her so she can slip through the bars all the while the drunk is making comments! It is so funny. The FBI catch him and they think he is an alien, that is so funny too. It is a short book but it is so good. I really enjoyed this clever story.

The narrator was pure perfection! It is hard to do comedy but this is done so well that the narration enhances the humor! Loved it all! Wonderful job!

Publisher's Summary:

One snarky heroine and her band of misfits up against, well, pretty much everyone else.

Indy Jackson is a stubborn space pirate with two goals in life: keep her father's underground operation alive and hunt down his murderer.

When Indy is framed for an alien massacre, she is forced to go on the run to clear her name and attempt something dozens of professionals before her have failed to achieve: find Constellation, the Sector's fabled battlecruiser.

Missing in action, and believed to be destroyed in the last Great War, Constellation is the only warship capable of defending the Sector against its mightiest enemy, the Blood Empire.

But the Sector is crumbling and on the brink of civil war. If Indy sides with the wrong faction, then no one will survive the Blood Empire's onslaught. Especially not Indy, her brother, and her ragtag crew.

Will Indy make the right choice and successfully play the Sector's fragile politics...or will the Galaxy fall into disarray, bringing death and destruction to all?

Constellation is the first book in a fast-paced space opera saga. If you like intense stand-offs, unexpected twists, and planet-loads of hidden agendas, then you'll love Robert Scanlon's Blood Empire series.

Let down by narration

Not a bad start to a series. However, I am not a fan of the narration, which I found to be bland and uninteresting.

So, I doubt I will follow on with Book 2.

Publisher's Summary:

In a world where nothing is ever as it seems, three separate families are drawn to a great and terrifying truth.

After winning the New Hampshire state lottery, Brent Brook treats himself to a new satellite dish and discovers a channel dedicated to the strange happenings. Hundreds of miles away in Virginia, reporter Marc Dazet stumbles upon the story of the most recent lottery winner and sets out to track down Mr. Brook as an interesting piece. Far away from the watchful eyes of the media, the Johnsons, a relatively normal military family, are called away to help serve their country at a far-off military base. The orders? Unclear. However, their move has future implications that will change the course of history forever. In time, their lives and their families' lives are thrown out of balance, and the truth is revealed.

One thing is for certain: We are not alone in the universe!

Alien Twist

The reporter and family man Mark Dazet thinks hes got a hook for a good story about lottery winner Brent Brook. But he finds a story bigger than any he could have imagined. One that hits a little too close to home!

What an enjoyable story! Sure, this tale could stand to be fleshed out a bit more, but I found Author Bryant Johnsons story intriguing. It has quite a twist to it! If youre looking for a quick sci-fi book to pass a few hours this book fits the bill!

Narrated by Neil Keck. He is a new narrator to me and he did a good job. The audio quality isnt the best, but it doesnt distract from the telling of the quirky little story.

This audiobook was received in exchange for an unbiased review!

An absolutely gripping book, must listen

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I most definitely would - It's one of the most gripping reads (listens) I've had in a long time, and the author (Bryant Johnson) deserves a lot more recognition.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Dialogue Prompt: "We Are Not Alone in the Universe!"?

I don't actually think there was one particular moment that stood out to me - The entire book was such an incredible one that I feel I'd be doing it an injustice to recommend one part over another!

What about Neil Kecks performance did you like?

I feel like his voice was very well adjusted to the style of the book - He did an excellent job of keeping me hooked, and the quality of his performance throughout was flawless.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

I think the author's own tagline would be perfect - "We are not alone...".

Publisher's Summary:

For 53 years Serengeti drifted, dreaming in the depths of space. Fifty-three years of patient waiting before her Valkyrie Sisters arrive to retrieve her from the dark. A bittersweet homecoming follows, the Fleet Serengeti once knew now in shambles, its admiral, Cerberus, gone missing, leaving Brutus in charge. Brutus who's subsumed the Fleet, ignoring his duty to the Meridian Alliance to pursue a vendetta against the Dark Star Revolution.

The Valkyries have a plan to stop him - depose Brutus and restore the Fleet's purpose - and that plan involves Serengeti. Depends on Serengeti turning her guns against her own.

Because the Fleet can no longer be trusted. With Brutus in charge, it's just Serengeti and her Sisters, and whatever reinforcements they can find.

A top-to-bottom refit restores Serengeti to service, and after a rushed reunion with Henricksen and her surviving crew, she takes off for the stars. For Faraday - a prison station - to stage a jailbreak, and free the hundreds of Meridian Alliance AIs wrongfully imprisoned in its Vault. From there to the Pandoran Cloud and a rendezvous with her Valkyrie Sisters. To retrieve a fleet of rebel ships stashed away inside.

Critic Reviews:

"A good military science fiction story.... The character development is good...the author made almost all of the starships seem like humans." (Science Fiction Book Reviews)

A Fun Space Opera

In the first book of the series Serengeti, the Valkyrie class space ship Serengeti was almost dead while drifting in space. Her little robots were working hard to keep some vital systems operating while waiting for rescue. In book two of the series, it turns out that Serengeti drifted for 53 years before being rescued. Serengeti is the AI that is the space ship. She returns to discover the fleet in shambles, the Admiral missing and Brutus is in command of what is left of the fleet. Brutus is on a vendetta against the Dark Star Revolution. Serengeti receives a complete refit and is restored to service. She is reunited with Henricksen and crew. They are assigned to free the Meridian Alliance AIs from a prison.

The book is well written and full of action. Rockwell does an excellent job with the battle scenes. The characters are interesting and likeable. I, of course, like Serengeti best of all along with her three special robots. The pace is fast and the suspense builds continuously. I found the book hard to put down. After reading two books by Rockwell, I just now realized that Rockwell is a woman.

The book is almost fourteen hours long. Elizabeth Wiley does a good job narrating the story. She has narrated all the books in the series so far. Wiley is an actor, voice-over artist and award-winning audiobook narrator.

good but not great for me

I liked the story and I really wanted to now how it ended. I had a hard time being pulled in to the story. I was able to put it down several times but picked it back up to see how it ended. All that said I will be getting the next book because of potential

great finnish

a Good yarn. Some of the AI voices a little annoying but that is a minor complaint against the over all story. I will enjoy having the series in my library and intend to revisit it from time to time,

just can't keep a good AI down

Serengeti to the Rescue. Was a really enjoyable read.

Publisher's Summary:

The planet Haven slides closer to revolution against its parent nation, Federal America. Everett Wells, the fair-minded planetary governor, tried to create a peaceful resolution, but his failure has caused the government to send Asha Stanton, a ruthless federal operative, to quell the insurgency.

Wells quickly realizes that Stanton has the true power...and two battalions of government security troops under her control. Unlike Wells, Stanton is prepared to resort to extreme methods to break the back of the gathering rebellion. But the people of Haven have their own ideas. They are not the beaten-down masses of Earth, but people with the courage and fortitude to tame a new world.

Damian Ward is such a resident of Haven, a retired veteran and decorated war hero, who has watched events on his adopted world with growing apprehension. He sympathizes with the revolutionaries, but he is loath to rebel against the flag he fought to defend. That is, until Stanton's reign of terror intrudes into his life - and threatens those he loves.

Yet the battle-scarred warrior knows that even if Haven's freedom fighters defeat the federalists, the rebellion is far from over...it's only just begun.

It was pretty predictable

Kind of felt like he was preaching the story. Maybe it was more the audio narrater, I think I will read it my self to see. I've read all his other books. Still, we'll see where the next book takes us.
