Resumen del Editor

The appearance of the warp drive from the long lost Fenrir spaceship triggers an epic quest for Captain Mikhail Volkov. According to the drive's computers, Fenrir had been lost to hypothetical "nowhere" of subspace, but with the drive's housing covered with coral and sea life, obviously Fenrir has gone somewhere. Faced with genocide at the hands of the alien Nefrim, humans need a miracle to survive. On the chance that Fenrir's mysterious location holds such a miracle, Mikhail jumps into the unknown and crashes into the endless blue of the Sargasso Sea.

Every ship that misjumped from any race that discovered travel through subspace has crashed into its waters, creating a graveyard of rusting spaceships. On the Sargasso's great oceans, humans live alongside aliens in uneasy peace.

His ship damaged, his younger foster brother lost, and his sanity rattled, Mikhail discovers a secret that might save the human race - but only if he can repair his ship and return home.

Contains mature themes.

Good story but awful narrator

I love Wen Spencer’s books but this reader is so distracting, doing over the top voices and the main characters, who are supposed to be fairly young, sound like crotchety eighty year olds

Awful Narrator, Great Story

I loved this story, but the narrator was awful. I read this book a long time ago and was really excited to see the audio book. But, as I said, the narration left a lot to be desired. Will avoid this narrator in the future.

Wonderful story, terrible narrator

This is an awesome story, I love it and re-read it often. But the narrator - ugh. He is terrible at female voices, he makes them sounds strident, whiney and awful. It was a struggle to get through this recording

bad narrator almost ruins a great story

I really love this book but getting through listening to this narrator was difficult. he sounds like nails on chalkboard whenever he attempts to do a higher voice, such as any woman. unfortunately, one of the 3 main characters is female. too bad, I love this space opera featuring unique ideas, great character development, tight plotting and (partial spoiler) 2 tropes I love: brothers separated and finding each other and castaway being rescued and falling in love with rescuer.

Awesome story - lackluster narration

I've read and re-read this book many times. First, in hardcover and later on Kindle. I was happy to see it available as an audiobook, and didn't hesitate to purchase it in yet another format. I was excited to revisit my "friends" in the Sargasso, but the narrator sounds so bored and disinterested that it was hard for me to enjoy the story. I think I will appreciate using WhisperSync when reading the ebook is interrupted by other tasks, but I can't recommend the audiobook on its own.
I wish Luke Daniels had narrated; that would have been perfect.

Great story, Not a great reader

The story takes a bit to get started but is very good once you get passed the introductions to the new world. The reader is a bit more challenging. His female voice shoots right up your spine and is very nasally. Check the trial first to see if you can listen to him for 14 hours.

really hard to listen to

The story seems OK but I could not listen to it for long. The narrator's voice is unfortunately very difficult to hear for a long period of time.
