Great story and narrator, crappy production
The story was intriguing and kept me listening. Molly king was able to create distinctions between the characters, but production sucked. One could constantly hear paper rustling which was distracting. At times it appeared that editing screwed up because a mistake might be made, it was noticed, and instead of editing it out, they had clips of it in. There was a moment I thought there was something wrong with the audio file because it repeated the same sentence several times... and it did not appear to be part of the writing technique. Those flaws made it distracting, and it was disappointing because it seems like a mature mistakes.
Good Story Uneven Narration
This audiobook has a little bit of everything, part horror and science fiction, with a dab of mystery added in. I liked the premise of the story more than the actual follow through and Im not sure why. Trying to put my finger on the problem has been difficult. I found the story engaging at times and then it seemed to drift. I think it has more to do with the narrator than the writing.
Molly King narrates this fully voiced production. I found some of her character voices jarring and an uncomfortable listen. Other characters were voiced quite well and theres no doubt Molly has talent. Perhaps its a case of trying too hard to differentiate the characters, I just prefer a more subtle distinction.
I am curious to see where this story goes, but I think Ill read the book next go round.
This audiobook was gifted to me in exchange for an unbiased review!
Can't wait!
Starburst was an intriguing story about seemingly random strangers who are brought together by Lisa for her mission to be advanced in the group of aliens who gave her the instructions. Well written and wonderful characters. I can't wait for the next book!
Brilliant!
Where does Starburst rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far?
It is in the top tier of books. The genre and delivery are all in a stand alone category. Such a clever idea and the deep thought that has gone into each individual character really pays off. The listener gets such an insight into their minds and thought processes. How their experiences have shaped them.
