Homeworld Lost

De: J.N. Chaney, Scott Moon

Narrado por: Neill Thorne

During a test flight for the world’s first warp engine, Major Noah Gantz is set to go down in the history books.

Despite years of training, the mission goes sideways, and instead of a quick trip to the moon and back, Noah's ship is transported across the universe to stars unknown.

Stranded in space and on the brink of death, Noah is rescued by a sentient starship and its captain. To save his life, the ship’s own biomatter must replace his failing cells.

Now, Noah is different. Stronger, faster...and there’s a voice in his head.

The voice of the ship itself, and its name is Kayan.

With no way to return home, Noah must adapt and rebuild his life in this unfamiliar corner of the universe. And as he does, he discovers a looming threat in the far reaches of space, growing in power, and set on capturing Noah and his ship.

Worse still, this new enemy knows about Earth...and it has big plans.

the cowardly pilot

the plot and storyline are indeed interesting. this is much like the TV show Farscape, with quasi-similar characters, though the "titan lord" character is very interesting. the only annoying thing, that distracted from the experience, is the human pilot who demonstrates a cowardly approach toward enemies that are intent on killing him and the crew of the living spaceship. this is not characteristic of typical military leadership in the real world. I'll continue on to the next book because the remaining characters are interesting and I'm interested in how they "flesh-out," so-to-speak. hopefully the main character becomes a little less squeamish.

reminds me if farscape

so far loving it.. I plan on listening to more. Description of the personalities of everyone is interesting. I like a hero who's lucky as well as clever.

Mediocre

They phoned this one in. It could have been great, but the storytelling is slow paced, the characters irrational, the hero is weirdly pacifist, and the plot twists are trivially predictable. The narrator is no better than the story too.

Great story but starts slow.

From many of the negative reviews i am seeing it seems that many people couldn’t finish the book. Yes the start is pretty slow but it starts to really get going about half way through the book. The entire plot for the story isn’t revealed until almost the end so for those of you teetering just keep with it, it will all make sense in the end.

Very good story!

Enjoyed the writing and narration. Few spots throughout I found to be somewhat “A-Teamish” if that’s a word of description. Can’t wait for the next part.
