Publisher's summary

Someone froze my weapons officer in cryonite. They won’t get away with that.

Let me just find somewhere to put down these talking Barbies....

Independent freighter captain Mike Starrunner has seen it all, but when someone freezes his weapons officer into a six-foot cube of cryonite, even Mike is stumped. Who would have done this and why? And what happened to good old carbonite? On skanky, sweltering hub world Ponce de Leon, there’s no shortage of suspects. Fortunately, Mike is a Shifter - genetically gifted with the ability to shift into animal form. Unfortunately, so are the other guys.

When Mike’s investigation leads him to his nemesis, notorious smuggler Buzzz Parsec, and his gang of criminal bear Shifters, things get hardcore. If Mike can’t solve the mystery, he’ll not only lose his weapons officer, but his home. Hold these damn Barbies. It’s time for beast mode!

"The Cryonite Caper" is a prequel to A Cauldron of Stars, the thrilling space opera series from New York Times best-selling sci-fi author Felix R. Savage.

Contains strong language and adult themes.

Fun little joyride of a book

This is just a short, fun book. It won't win any literary awards, but it is just quirky and fun to listen to. It gives some backstory to the Cauldron of Stars characters.

FINE READING OF A STUPID STORY!

This was so lame! Maybe a 12-15 year old boy might enjoy it, But not an adult.
Yes it was free, but there are so many better stories that Audible could have picked.
I never got the feeling that it wasn't a "Who done it" right here on earth. It takes forever to tell a 15 minute story,
and by the end you won't care how it turns out.
Don't waste your time. I wish I hadn't, but curiosity killed the cat, and the narrator was so good with
many different voices, he saved me from ending it 30 minutes in.
I will look for more books read by him

Manchild who plays with Barbie dolls

Juvenile and pointless, except for the MC to endlessly talk about his daughter, his Barbie dolls, and a menagerie of shifter types. The narration is odd, rolling up and down, speeding and slowing in what felt like a long, drunk,run-on sentence. Even as a free listen, this wasn’t worth it.
