My Homemade Spaceship, Book 2

De: Douglas Michaels

Narrado por: J D Tanner, Jessica Threet

Will Ryder and Francine, the AI powering his homemade spacecraft, have taken to the stars, the first step on their quest to save the Earth from alien invasion.

They have to travel across the Milky Way to reach Francine’s homeworld, a route fraught with danger and adventure for even a cutting edge ship, but Will and Francine’s ship is cobbled together in a rush with Earth materials, and it won’t make the journey without significant upgrades.

Will is in over his head and out of his depth, but he was chosen to be Earth’s savior and will fight to overcome any obstacle to his mission.

Disappointed. Good story but not enough of it.

The story is solid, but there is only a few chapters worth of story, stretched out across an entire book. The filler is a whole bunch of detailed descriptions of conflict, battles, and sexual tension. None of that filler is particularly interesting or engaging, and it starts to feel a bit like a video game is being narrated to me. I had to skip so much of this book just to get through it, that I’m left feeling very disappointed, and like the value of my purchase was not reflected.
While I’m curious how the story continues, I don’t think I will be purchasing more in the series because if they continue as this book did I would wish for a refund - and that process is laborious.

The book nevertheless retains some quality elements, and if you can tolerate the filler better than I can, you still may enjoy it.

I'm not disappointed

I've been waiting for this book for a while. And it has not disappointed me. I can't wait for the next book in this series.
