Corsairs: Kaspar

Corsair Brothers, Book 2

By: Ruby Dixon

Narrated by: Hollie Jackson, Mason Lloyd

I live for danger. For excitement. For adventure.

When I end up in an escape pod with Alice, though, my world changes. She's human. Vulnerable. She does NOT love danger, or excitement. But her mind is clever, her retorts sharp, and her smile brings me to my knees. I want nothing more than to keep her safe . . . and keep her at my side.

What does one danger-loving corsair do when he's stranded with a beautiful human female on a jungle planet? I'm about to find out . . .

Contains mature themes.

Better than last book

Hollie’s voice was more appropriate for this character. Mason does a great job. The storyline was interesting and exciting; and the characters were likable and funny. On to the next book!

Narrator accent?

I feel like I’m losing my mind because I don’t see any other reviews that mention this…but randomly at chapter 48 the male narrator switches from the semi-normal alien accent that he uses in all the other books to a super annoying Italian accent…or Greek? I don’t know but he started pronouncing words very weird with an over-the top European sounding accent. I even went back to previous chapters to make sure my ears weren’t just deceiving me but no, it definitely changes randomly at chapter 48 or 49 and it was so distracting for me. Otherwise the book was good. Follows the same general formula as the other books in the series. Overall good but maybe skip the audio version of this one.

Love Ruby and this series but…..

While I love the series, especially how greatly diverse all the characters are,but I struggled with the heroine in this book. While, the back story surely gives more than enough reason for her many…many issues; there are choices people can make to choose not to blanket their many, many fears into annoying near cowardice and blatant prejudices against “Aliens” that makes me wince. Also, her near constant complaints, bitchiness to people that have been nothing but kind to her is cringe worthy.

I suppose it’s a surprisingly accurate portrayal of humanity. However, i don’t care for her, and wouldn’t want to be her friend.

I need more !!

Ok if that doesn't sell you.....

If you like your aliens…

All of Dixon’s books are for you! I love this world and how all of the different series intertwine. These series are great for light listening. This book was entertaining and worth the second (or third?) listen. Every year it find it way into my listening…all of the books do, from one source or another. If I don’t have something lined up, I will put on whatever book from this world that I haven’t listened to in a while is available.
