Zusammenfassung des Herausgebers:

Es ist das Signal, auf das die Welt seit Beginn der Weltraumforschung wartet - in der Nähe des Saturns ist ein künstliches, unbekanntes Objekt gesichtet worden. Ein amerikanisches Team bricht sofort zu dem fernen Planeten auf. Doch alles auf der Reise geht schief, und noch bevor sie den Saturn erreichen, erkennen die Astronauten, dass es nahezu unmöglich sein wird, zur Erde zurückzukehren. Und auch auf zwei weitere Dinge sind sie nicht vorbereitet: Auf das, was sie in dem geheimnisvollen, kilometergroßen Objekt finden. Und auf ein skrupelloses, konkurrierendes Team, das ebenfalls als erstes am Ziel sein will. Bald geht es nicht mehr nur darum, die größte Entdeckung der Menschheitsgeschichte zu bewahren. Sondern ums blanke Überleben...

"Das Objekt" ist ein unnachahmlich spannender und cooler Trip in die Tiefen des Universums. Für alle Fans von "Der Marsianer".

Wait, what?

If this is in fact a sequel to the magnificent "Saturn Run" why hasn't it been translated yet!?!?!?!?!

OR perhaps it is just "Saturn Run" auf Deutsch? Nicht unmöglich...

Publisher's Summary:

Fossil Hunter is hard SF in the tradition of Larry Niven about a world inhabited by the Quintaglios, a dinosaurian species that has evolved a human level of intelligence and culture.

Toroca, a Quintaglio geologist, is under attack for his controversial new theory of evolution. But the origins of his people turn out to be more complex than even he imagined, for he soon discovers the wreckage of an ancient starship - a relic of the aliens who transplanted Earth's dinosaurs to this solar system. Now, Toroca must convince Emperor Dybo that evolution is true; otherwise, the territorial violence the Quintaglios inherited from their tyrannosaur ancestors will destroy the last survivors of Earth's prehistoric past.

My Head Hurts!

I turn to Sawyer because I want a mind-bending experience, well this is certainly that!

I liked Book 1 better, I was not interested in half the story lines in Book 2, but Im still in for Book 3.

Not much of a review, but Id have to untangled my pretzeled brain in order to write something coherent and Im still trying to picture what a sentient dinosaurs apartment looks like! Ha!

A fantastic book with a great narrator. Top notch!

Where does Fossil Hunter rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far?

Easily in the top 5.

What did you like best about this story?

Sawyer does a great job at creating a believable alien culture that is described well enough to still resonate with the reader. His protagonists are engaging, and his knowledge of paleontology adds additional levels of appreciation for a biologist such as myself. The little nods to parallel development of Quintaglio scientific development was quite amusing without being overly blunt.

Which scene was your favorite?

It's all pretty good. Toroca's methodical scientific inquiry and unusual mindset makes him a compelling and sympathetic character in pretty much every scene. I read this book first of the three back in the day, and I found it impossible to not get quite invested in Toroca's journey and personal problems. Dybo's arena fight is pretty epic.

Any additional comments?

Just that it's a great book. I look forward to listening to this performance again many times in the future.

Members Reviews:

WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?

THEY HAD TO DIE

A good concept is one thing, putting it on paper or audio another. The first time I saw this, I said I got to have it. Nazi's and Zombies, are my two favorite monsters. Alas, the writing was just not there. I had enjoyed SUFFER THE CHILDREN by DiLouie, so I took a chance, even though I am always leery of collaborations. Matter of fact this is the second collaboration, DiLouie has tricked me into buying.

Cliché

I think the authors were having a contest on who could insert the most amount of war clichés in this book. That would not have been that bad or that unrealistic. My father is close to that generation, (Korean War) and so was my Father in law. Both were in the Navy and in real life, they had a tendency to speak in clichés. These authors missed the boat on not having enough Mad Nazi Scientist stuff. This could have been so much more, but wasn't. Meh, Meh, Meh.

Narrator had a great voice for this type of book. I would not want him to read Little House on The Prairie, but this was right up his alley.

They thought they understood their enemy

World War II being in the trenches and fighting off the German soldiers was bad enough. What would happen if the SS/Nazis came up with a new drug that made their soldiers almost unstoppable? This is a story about that.

Todd Menesses narrates this story and absolutely crushes it. He has an awesome history channel-like voice that really brings this story alive. His performance (and yes, it truly was a performance) was perfect voicing different characters from different areas in perfect dialects. Menesses will definitely be a narrator that I will be looking for when Im buying my next audiobook.

Im a big history buff, I love studying the different wars and different time periods to figure out what life was like or what battle could have felt like. I feel like Screaming Eagles really pulls off the feeling of being there in the trenches of World War II. Granted there is a lot more going on than actually happened during the war, but that makes it an even better story.

Knowing that the SS were experimenting with drugs during this time makes this story even more believable. There were a couple times that I actually wondered if something similar to this actually happened.

The pacing of the story was awesome, the reader is thrown from person to person and story to story throughout the book. As soon as you feel comfortable it changes to someone else giving the story a multi-faceted look from many different points of view.

Screaming Eagles was a hell of a book told like a true story during WWII it was so realistic I felt like I was really there with these men.

Publisher's Summary:

Scientists attempted to find a cure for addiction. They failed.

Dr. Everett Berning, a leading researcher into the causes of addiction in the brain, spent 10 years of his life dedicated to one thing: finding the cure. Recruited after a strange encounter with the enigmatic Dr. Roberta Flint, director of research on Code Name: Rememdium, Dr. Berning is sent to work in a secret lab as part of the research team.

When the moment the scientists waited on for years arrives, Dr. Flint and her team are ecstatic.

Unfortunately, not everyone in the world feels the same way.

Benito San Nicholas isn't ready to give up his lucrative business. When the news of a cure arrives on his doorstep from a crooked informant, Benito enlists the help of other drug lords from around the world to stop the cure from hitting the streets and destroying their livelihoods.

What happens next ends up uniting the globe - just not the way society ever intended or hoped.

Members Reviews:

How awful that someone has to ruin a cure.

This could have been a great book if it went on a little longer. Telling you what happens in the long run. The performance was good but the story was a little weak.

Tainted cure

What did you like best about this story?

This is an audio book for fans of action, adventure and just a fantastic read then you must pick up this book! I can't wait for book 2 to see what happens

Need to cure the cure

I wasn't sure about this book at first but than it got some action drugs murder underground hiding. It was far fetched beyond believable but I did enjoy it.

Chilling!

I first read this in eBook format and loved it! Fontainne is a master of plot twists and multiple, impressively fleshed out characters. In this first foray into Apocalypse thrillers, she continues to amaze me. Roberts narrates with amazing talent, so how could I resist buying the audio book as well?

The story is largely centered around the zombie outbreak, but also features a documentation of the horrors of drug addiction, the power of love, and the importance of emergency preparation (both personally and regionally). There is some really meaty gore, but it doesn't override the story. Great book overall, and well narrated.

I WASN'T EXPECTING A ZOMPOCALYPSE!!!!!!!!!!!

Would you listen to Tainted Cure again? Why?

I would, because I liked it!

What did you like best about this story?

It wasn't what I was expecting at all...and I was very pleasantly surprised...

Title: On the Train

Author: Harry Turtledove, Rachel Turtledove

Narrator: Julie McKay, Alex Hyde-White

Format: Unabridged

Length: 6 hrs and 28 mins

Language: English

Release date: 02-04-16

Publisher: Audible Studios

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 2 votes

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

Publisher's Summary:

Is travelling on The Train a means to an end...a way to complete one's journey...or is The Train the destination itself, rolling endlessly through realms both magical and mechanical? And what of Javan, the lad from Pingaspor whose third-class ticket entitles him to a spot on a hard bench? He has given up everything he had for that cherished spot. But where, exactly, is he headed?

Javan's story is followed by the tale of nanny Eli, hired by Baroness Vasri to take care of her son and daughter as they travel on The Train in first class. But the Baroness' agenda may run contrary to that of those running The Train...and what will become of the children?

Critic Reviews:

"Turtledoves père and fille offer two stories set on a railroad-girt world. Harry Turtledove (Supervolcano) introduces Javan, a young man from the city of Pingaspor whose third-class ticket allows him to expand his worldview, and whose ambition allows him to make a life for himself in the narrow confines of the Train. Rachel Turtledoves story describes the first-class travels of nanny Eli, hired by the Baroness Vasri, who becomes entangled in the world of the Directors of the Railroad and the slinkers who stow away. The world of the Train is insular even as it circles the planet, offering only fleeting glimpses into the wonders beyond, whether the ravages of war or the effects more magical regions have on the Trains mechanism. The original setting and likable characters have a surprising number of possibilities that could easily be explored in future books." (Publishers Weekly)

Members Reviews:

Ragged Javan and a Game of Railroad Baronies

This was my introduction to The Stellar Guild Series, in which the idea is to pair a superstar SF author with a protege of his or her own choosing and have them each write a story set in the same universe. In this case Harry Turtledove chose his own daughter Rachel Turtledove to write the sequel novellette to his novella set on a world girdling train that passes through city states where science works or where magic works as well as through badlands where neither works very well and alters its means of propulsion and physical appearance accordingly. Frankly, they had me at "train", but in many ways this pairing exceeded my expectations.

Harry Turtledove has arguably written his ownHoratio Algerstory in "All Aboard!", which tells the tale of young Javan of Pingsapoor who having spent almost all he had managed to save to acquire a third-class ticket on the Train, struggles through hard work to escape poverty, rising from hard bench in third class to soft seat in second class by story's end, having learned a trade, acquired a family, and by taking advantage of his opportunities (but not too much advantage; Javan grasps the wisdom of striking a "fair deal" rather than taking someone for everything he can at the moment), become a successful middle man, acquiring needed supplies for his fellow snack sellers at a lower cost then they could have even after extracting his small fee.

Publisher's Summary:

The world has changed. It's dangerous, deadly. Inhuman creatures rule the planet. Animals have mutated. The land is hostile. But it's all I've ever known. Hunger. Fear. Panic. Those emotions are my reality. I am Avery, and I am 17. My father died a year ago. Since then I've been responsible for my eight-year-old sister, June.

I worry we are the only humans left.

Humans have been hunted for centuries, to the brink of extinction. I must fight each day to protect my sister. It is the reason I wake, the reason I breathe. But how long can I go on fighting? How long will it be before they find us?

More than 200 years into the future, human beings are an endangered species. The planet has been battered by war, its inhabitants plagued by disease and death. Few humans survived and remained unaffected. Most changed dramatically and evolved into something else entirely. Irrevocable alterations caused by chemical warfare have created a new species. North America is in ruins and has been overtaken. Humanity has fallen at the hands of mutants known as Urthmen.

Seventeen year-old Avery is alive and unchanged. But she has not been immune to the harshness of the new world. She has lived on the run for much of her life, in terror.

After losing her father, Avery is the sole guardian of her eight-year-old sister, June. Avery is now charged with June's safety as well as her own, a nearly impossible task.

Forced to hide deep in the forest and away from the cities overrun by Urthmen, Avery and her sister are constantly hunted. Danger awaits them at every turn. They fear they are the only human beings left, that they are the last of their kind.

But are they truly alone?

Find out in this raw and riveting first installment of the Planet Urth series.

Members Reviews:

Excellent post apocalyptic story

Excellent post apocalyptic story! People and animals have mutated. Only a few normal humans remain. Wolves have mutated into warewolf like monsters. Spiders and huge! It's an apocalyptic nightmare! I'm definitely looking forward to hearing the rest of the series!

Earth has become a scary and different place

What did you love best about Planet Urth?

I really liked the start of this series , definitely written for a YA audience . The descriptions in this book can place you in the scenes. The author not only describes what you see , but what you hear what you smell and what the character Senses around them.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Planet Urth?

I think it was at the scene at the lake with the other family they had just met . The first other humans that the youngest daughter could remember that were not related to her .

Have you listened to any of Emma Lysys other performances before? How does this one compare?

No I have never listen to any of her performances before but I really enjoyed listening to her and will enjoy hearing her narrate other stories in the future .

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No I did not listen to this in one sitting I did listen to it all in one day while I was working .

Title: Beyond the Shroud of the Universe

Release date: 01-13-16

Publisher: Chris Kennedy Publishing

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 29 votes

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

Publisher's Summary:

A mysterious race from an alternate universe has allied itself with the Jotunn, and the alliance is set on destroying the Aesir and bringing about Ragnarok. With an ability to jump between universes and unstoppable time-based weapons, the Efreet seem invincible. The Vella Gulf is the only ship to survive its first meeting with the Efreet, but only through a fluke of luck.

Worse, Lieutenant Commander Shawn "Calvin" Hobbs has just found out the Efreeti home world is the same planet in their universe as Terra is in ours. If true, the Efreet could cross into our universe at any moment and annihilate the Earth without any warning. Terra lies defenseless!

Calvin and the crew of the Vella Gulf have a surprise for the Efreet, though; they have returned to Terra with the ability to cross between the universes like their enemy. Armed with personal transporters and jump modules for their ships, they're now able to take the fight to the Efreet. But will they be in time to prevent Terra's annihilation?

As the Efreet continue their inexorable onslaught on all fronts, Calvin only knows one thing. The answers to all of their questions lie beyond the shroud of the universe.

Members Reviews:

Puts you in the thick of it!

What I love about Kennedy's writing is the no holds barred action, and this book does not disappoint. There was a good balance between ground assaults, space battle and story-line intrigue.

Although the action is packed in it seemed a little longer than other books which made it that much more satisfying, and it's only a small thing, but re-capping the story so far was very unobtrusive, and I really appreciate this in a series.

This is my favorite since the first Janissaries book.

Exciting new book from chris

Chris has another hit in his hands. If you liked his other books jump on this one right away. All the gang is here and the adventure keeps going. Lots of action in the book.

If you enjoy this one read all the theogony books and the seatle series.

It's a lot of the same.

I got through this, but it was a bit of a slog. By now if you've read his Theogony first you realize that Chris Kennedy doesn't go for deep plots or lots of character growth. There is the overarching plot of Shawn "Calvin" Hobbs leading the first human explorations into space, and his near continuous combats with every race humanity has the misfortune to encounter.

It should be interesting, but by now the fact that Chris happily introduces 10-20 named characters who won't survive to the end of the book, and that some characters like Sara, Chris's supposed long time girlfriend and assistant science officer on the Vella Forge have disappeared from the tale completely.

Its just not a fun read anymore

:::Sigh it is almost over:::

Chris Kennedy writes on H*** of a book. This is the next to the last book in the series and has a twist I did not see coming. The author had me hooked from book one. I could not wait to finish each book so I could see where they go next. If you have not started reading Chris's books read Red tide, then occupied Seattle the onto Jannisaries through that series and onto this one. Worth the read.

Nice to see you

I have purchased several of these books and have read the rest of them at the library. They seem a bit simplistic or one-dimensional, but are still decent.

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

Publisher's Summary:

This edition is the complete trilogy of Live or Die.

The aliens have arrived!

Their first message is one of peace, but can they be trusted?

This is the story of the first contact between humanity and the civilization of another world, with all of the uncertainty, questions, deceptions, curiosity, fears, and ethical problems that it raises. But it is also the story of a huge spaceship in orbit around the Earth; and the diary of a government agent whose mission is to thwart the alien conquest.

The plot revolves around artificially intelligent beings, nuclear threats, virtual simulations, the mysterious origins of an alien civilization and government agents whose lives hang by a thread. The inescapable fate of the human race will be shaped by these, along with the power of love between a man and a woman.

What if, for a moment, the fate of the Earth was in the hands of a single individual?

What if the survival of one person could upset the future of two worlds?

And what if dying was preferable to living?

Book 3: The Choice

Members Reviews:

Very Unique ~ Unlike Any Sci-Fi I've Listened too!

I love a good Sci-Fi, but I'll admit this story is unlike any typical Sci-Fi I'm used to reading. It wasn't really a Sci-Fi opera or even a military Sci-Fi; however, overall I did like it, and think if you a true fan of Sci-Fi, then you will probably enjoy this trilogy.

Looking over other the reviews, it appears there were several comments about book one. Book one it's told in six parts but the first two are very different.

Part 1 - Diary format following characters that were placed underground from June 3 to September 11th and during this time earth is invaded by aliens. Two of the main characters Siroio and Namiko start develop a relationship and communicate by video.

Part II - Is told from the spaceship Alpha Orionis on-board log which details the most recent events but is mainly in a code like format - very different.

Part III - IV This is where the book starts to pull together the events from part I and II and becomes more like your typical story telling. By the end of book one, earth has been invaded and suffered a lot of human losses and these losses were a result of an error from one of the alien races on the spaceship Alpha Orionis. They've assisted earth with rebuilding.

Siroio and Namiko have fallen in love and moved in together; however, due to a medical condition Namiko is in a comma and her outlook is very grim. The first officer, Eldgh, on the Alpha Orionis offers to save Namiko by sneaking her onboard their ship when they leave earth, but she will the only person allowed to leave. Siroio agrees for Namiko to leave so she can be saved.

There's a lot going on in the story and the plot is full of kinds of twist. Book two picks but by book three, I was really into the story. I loved and hated the ending.... in a good way. :-)

I noticed there were mixed reviews on the narrator; however, I think he did an awesome job. Since this story is told from multiple alien races, he used a voice that you would associate with a logical thinking alien being. In my copy of the audiobook, there were many repeats, where you could hear a finger snapping sound, and that segment would be repeated.
