Orphan Star

A Pip & Flinx Adventure

By: Alan Dean Foster

Narrated by: Stefan Rudnicki

One man in the Universe holds the key to the mystery of Flinx's past - and that man is trying to kill him!

It is a strange childhood for a kid, to be adopted by the restless Mother Mastiff and raised in the bustling marketplace of Drallar. Flinx never knew the mom and dad who abandoned him years ago. In fact, his birth has always been shrouded in mystery. But Flinx eventually discovers that his unknown parents have left him a curious legacy - extraordinary mental powers that are both a marvelous gift and a dreaded curse.

This double-edged legacy will lead Flinx, along with his loyal protector, the mini-dragon Pip, on a harrowing journey in search of the truth . . . about who he is and where he comes from. It is a daring adventure that brings him to another world - and into the clutches of one of the most evil and powerful men in the galaxy. . . .

character

excellent development of character. Flinx is maturing. this author is one of my favorites. I go back to his books often

loved it

I read the Pip and Flinx Adventures in high school and hearing them read so well in these audio books brings the adventure alive again.

Very Nice

I liked the descriptions of the new and different worlds. It was just enough to visualize but not too much so that I could image the rest. I get the sense that there are other books related to their adventures. I will likely try to find the series.

Thanks

Flinx's Misadventures

This is clearly a tale of missteps and story that is shockingly well written. While Flinx is, at best, an antihero, he comes across as surprisingly easy to identify with. A solid addition to the series.

great

another great book in the series...waiting to read the next book and enjoy that one too
