Acerca de esta escucha
When interstellar singer spy Jack Jones has to solve his own murder on the Shakespeare, things do not go smoothly. First his clone body loses 30 years of memories, and then it starts experiencing strange urges and abilities. As he investigates he discovers brigands, space pirates, and a secret faster-than-light drive, which could push the galaxy into war.
He would sing a song, solve the mystery, and save the day - if only he could remember how.

Kylie Rhoads is a junker. She makes her living traveling the stars, salvaging abandoned ships left over from pirate attacks on the edge of the Gedri system. Some of the hulls are legal for the taking, most aren't. When a salvage job goes bad, Kylie finds herself on the wrong end of a gun. The hand holding that gun? The SA Space Force, just the people Kylie wants to avoid. To avoid prison, Kylie makes a deal to go deep into the Gedri System and rescue a simple girl. But out on the fringe, nothing is as it seems.

It was not common to awaken in a cloning vat streaked with drying blood. At least Maria Arena had never experienced it. She had no memory of how she died. That was also new; before, when she had awakened as a new clone, her first memory was of how she died. Maria's vat was in the front of six vats, each one holding the clone of a crew member of the starship Dormire, each clone waiting for its previous incarnation to die so it could awaken. And Maria wasn't the only one to die recently....

“The answer is no, Lyra”, my mother utters her favorite - I swear - phrase. No means I have to travel with them to another planet - again. No means leaving all my friends 50 years in the past. Thanks, Einstein. Seventeen-year-old Lyra Daniels can’t truly blame Einstein or her parents for their impending move across the Milky Way Galaxy. It’s all due to the invention of the Q-net, which made traveling the vast distances in space possible - with one big caveat: the time dilation.

Her Imperial Highness the Grand Duchess Victoria Maria Teresa Inez Smythe-Peterwald, daughter of wealth and power, was raised to do little except be attractive and marry well. Then everything changed - her brother, her father’s favorite and the heir apparent, was killed in battle by Lieutenant Kris Longknife, daughter of the Peterwald’s longtime enemies. Vicky vowed revenge, but her skill set was more suitable for seduction than assassination, and she failed. Angry and disappointed, her father decided she needed military training and forced her to join the Navy.

What were you thinking?
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and
have voluntarily left this review.
I couldn’t get past the first couple of chapters. The narrator sounds like an unfeeling robot. His delivery is very broken and unnatural. His character have no distinction and run together. Very painful to listen to.
May have been a good story, but with this guy narrating I’ll never be able to get thru it to find out.

The terrible narration killed this book
I decided to listen to this book because the blurb caught my eye and the few ratings were good, but Edward Jackson’s terrible narration prevented me from getting into it. It was done in a very robotic way, with strange pauses mid sentence, and zero voice differentiation between narrator and characters.
It is a pity because I hate not being able to finish books that I listen to as per request, but I could not for the life of me get over the narration and continue with it.
I do appreciate Lesley L. Smith for providing me with this audiobook but I would advice to get a second narration for it, it really ruined a good book. I wish I had the time to actually read it but I know that with how life is nowadays it just won’t happen. It really saddens me.
I would advice both author and narrator to listen to a lot of audiobooks to have an idea of what things should look like, it seems the basic idea was not even contemplated here.
I received a copy of this book in audio format from the author in exchange for an honest review.

AWFUL narrator!
I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
I don't think I made it more than 5 to 10 minutes into this book before I had to shut it off. The narration was THAT bad... The sound quality had an odd echo, and the narrator had a halting, robotic cadence to his voice that was almost disorienting. I really wanted to like this book... I really did... but buy it in print, don't waste the credit on the audio book, unless it gets re-recorded.

Worst narration
I received this audiobook for free from the author/ narrator / publisher in exchange for an unbiased review.
This is probably the worst narration I've ever heard of an audiobook. It was so bad that I was wondering whether a text-to-Speech engine is used for the narration. The voice was very robotic and didn't sound natural. The speech pattern was uncanny. All different characters had the same voice, same pitch. Couldn't go past the first few chapters.
