Those Liadans!

It is best to start with Conflict of Honors, then Agent of Change, Carpe Diem, Plan B, and I Dare to get the full story and understanding of this universe. Fascinating storyline through these books, and there are prequels and sequels too! The narrator for this series was not the best. He voiced some characters very well; for instance Edger sounds just like I imagined him! However, why does Nelirikk have a squeaky, high pitched voice? He's huge! Doesn't make sense.

I love these books.

I have long enjoyed the Liaden universe. I started with Local Custom as an audio book on a whim and soon became addicted. I went through ten audio books in a month! Andy Caploe has a good reading style, well-paced and pleasant to listen to. My real complaint was that too many of his characters ended up sounding like Brooklyn thugs, and no few of his female voices just whined.

Things are really heating up.

This must be the third time I’ve listened over the years after reading a couple of times as well. The feel of this sage seeps into you and the subtleties of the language aren’t easy to describe, but they convey so much feeling and meaning. You really need to start this story arc with Agent of Change. But Lee and Miller have once again spun a complexity that sucks you in. I care about these people and what a space opera…

A long time favorite

Just finished my sixth reread. Excitement, humor and drama. What could possibly be better? I love the entire sprawling saga and this is my favorite Start with Agent of Change.

3.5 Stars Overall for poor narration.

3.5 Stars Overall for poor narration. Very slow reading speed, and Definitely Not my favorite narrator.
