Ok story

The Reader was So slow. But once I set speed to 1.4 it was good. The story was not a masterpiece but a good listen.

Great start of a new series!

Another slice of the Michael Andersen Universe! Action packed adventure all the way to the end!

Kick ass heroen

At first the female lead seemed to act overboard......but regardless, the plot kept getting better and better. It became very interesting. I enjoyed it and will stick with the series. The narrator could have shifted vocal quality better between charactors.

Great origin story

I like a law enforcer who is powerful and isn’t timid about throwing their weight around

Good start to a new entry in the Kurtherian series

Good start to a new entry in the Kurtherian series. A good balance of drama & humor with likable characters.

Loved the book loved the audio

Ever think you would be routing for the lawyer? Listen to this one and you will be to. already preordered book 2

I love the book.

a nice adventure series you want to start on.. the narration is awesome. I hate for it to end and I wait for the next release.. get started.

Painful

If only this Judge Dredd knockoff had a fraction of the action, camp, satire or grit of the source material; sadly, this lady judge in space schtick was painful to listen to.

The first half is cliche city, taking Rivka from Earth Barrister (who does the arrest and prosecution, but has to let the jury decide) to intergalactic Magistrate (who’s judge, jury, and executioner, right down to the Dredd-esque catchphrase “justice is served”). The dialogue is low class, relying on machine gun F bombs. The set up to Rivka turning killer is nonsense. The training, body modification, and team building montages were uninspired. There’s random comments about vampires and werewolves that are wildly out of place and don’t contribute at all to the story (apparently, this series connects to the Kutherian series?).

The second half was marginally better, if you like diplomatic missions. Instead of a shoot ‘em up space cop story, Rivka and her team must arbitrate an agreement between two alien groups on a super hot planet. There’s no real detective work; instead, progress comes courtesy of Rivka’s telepathy, making the unmasking of saboteurs underwhelming. In the final analysis, however, this was just plain boring. There are twenty books in this series on Audible, signaling this is quantity or quality. I’m out at book 1.
