Story4.5 out of 5 stars 5
When an astronaut attempts to add cooking to her list of nonexistent wife-material skills, she fails so spectacularly that she blows herself into space. Without a suit on. Full of pent-up anger and regret from all the social pressure. If she survives those precious seconds till help arrives, she's done with all that. The next time she meets someone, she might just explode.

The Destroyer of Earth did not set out to be one. A perfect storm of catastrophes, a touch of hubris, and a lot of human ingenuity, and you get yourself deeper than ever. The button has been pressed, the world is in ruins. Will humanity figure out how to survive? What is Antigravel? What did you think was the road-stop for man to explore the empty reaches of space? Faster than light travel? Interstellar navigation? Time dilation? Puh. We beat all that by sheer force of will. No. It was micrometeoroids. Rocks. F--king space rocks.

Do electronic sheep dream?
This short story gave me the mental image of a blade runner (original) setting with powered humans (mutants?) being hunted by a shadowy agency. A new member of this rebellion being tested/sent on a mission. The absence already aware of her powers. The trust needed in each other to complete a mission. I would love a deeper look into this world to which we have been given a window. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator or publisher

Wow!
How does he do it?
I truly don’t understand how the author George Saoulidis grabs you from page one, first word till the last word in such a short story but he somehow able to do it.
I’ve never seen it done before by any other author and I don’t believe that I’ll ever will, it’s an amazing talent!
Narration by Lori VanScyoc was spot on.
In exchange for an honest review I’ve received this audiobook.

I got you.
Just eight minutes long, how much can happen? Well, in a short by author George Saoulidis, an awful lot. Thrown straight into the action, we accompany Samantha, also codenamed Lightshow, on her first (dare I say it?) dazzling mission. Quite brilliant.
Unfortunately, I cannot say the same of the narrator. Although technically good, Lori VanScyoc's delivery was so abrasive that I personally found it disconcertingly hard to take in and unsympathetic to the character. I had to listen twice to get beneath it. Better to read the story in print.
My thanks to Mythographers who, at my request freely gifted me with a complimentary audio copy.
