Story
They were sent to build a utopia, but all they found on Mars was death. Frank Kitteridge has been abandoned. But XO, the greedy - and ultimately murderous - corporate architects of humanity's first Mars base made a costly mistake when they left him there: They left him alive. Using his skills and his wits, he's going to find a way back home even if it kills him. Little does he know that Mars isn't completely empty. Just over the mountain, there's another XO base where things are going terribly, catastrophically wrong.

Story
An AI overseer and a human crew arrive on a distant planet to salvage an ancient UN starship. The overseer is unhappy. The crew, well, they're certainly no A-team. Not even a C-team on the best of days. And worse? Urmahon Beta, the planet, is at the ass-end of nowhere. Everybody expects this to be a long, ugly, and thankless job. Then it all goes disastrously wrong. What they thought was an uninhabited backwater turns out to be anything but empty.

Civil war looms in the Bobiverse in this brand-new, epic-length adventure by Audible number one best seller Dennis E. Taylor. More than a hundred years ago, Bender set out for the stars and was never heard from again. There has been no trace of him despite numerous searches by his clone-mates. Now Bob is determined to organize an expedition to learn Bender’s fate - whatever the cost. But nothing is ever simple in the Bobiverse. Bob’s descendants are out to the 24th generation now, and replicative drift has produced individuals who can barely be considered Bobs anymore.

A New Twist on a Space Murder Mystery
4.5 out of 5 stars One Way has been on my radar for some time – I ended up picking this book up to read (non-requested review) which I have very little time for anymore. My wife and I started another book on a drive home from DC and we just couldn’t get into it. We put One Way on and were instantly hooked. Literally the first 3 minutes were more intriguing than the hour we had given another book. Morden knows how to build both suspense and intrigue as he builds the world, the characters, and the mistrust throughout. You follow one main character but are introduced to numerous others. Frank is one of those characters that in the beginning you don’t know if he is going to be a good or a bad guy – and you’re told right away that he’s a convict. You’re also told pretty early on why he’s a convict. While I’m not a parent – I could completely understand the crime that Frank committed. Once the Earth part of the story was over – this entire book read like the synopsis said. It combines And Then There Was One and The Martian. And it references and I think pays a little homage to The Martian a couple times (there was at least one scene where duct tape was mentioned. I thought for sure one of them was going to mention Mark but they didn’t. I kept thinking to myself that this could have honestly been the prequel to The Martian. It was built in such a way that the convicts sounded like they were building the HAB that the characters in The Martian were going to live and work in. While I understand that the science and technology needed to power a Martian base would be the same – it felt so similar. So, that bodes well for fans of The Martian. And if you like a good “whodunit” murder-mystery an are looking for something set in a new and unique environment you should check out One Way. Overall, I thought that One Way was a well thought out and paced combination of a science fiction and murder mystery book. It has elements that a lot of people would enjoy and will have me thinking about it when it comes time to vote for my best books of 2018.

Derivative perhaps, but still outstanding!
If you are a fan of Martian exploration stories ( and gosh, there is no shortage of those, nor are they all good ) this series is for you! Sure, you could argue it is somewhat derivative of The Martian ( etc.) even to the extent that they make sly reference to the story itself, but why not?! Some things are just good and deserve to be respected. This story crackles along with just enough space opera and strangeness to keep the listener engaged. The principal, "Frank" is very well drawn, consistent, and keeps the listener interested and engaged in his journey. The other characters are nearly as compelling and drive the story arc along equally well. A brilliant performance by William Hope, who is developing into one of the leading Audible performers in my books. The series comes highly recommended.

A True Thrill-Ride
I have to admit, I suspected the final twist to this book for a long time, but somehow it still kept me guessing, or at least feeling like I didn't have all the cards I needed to play... the author weaves a truly spectacular and edge-of-your-seat murder mystery that is only improved by the fact it's set on Mars, and the audiobook performance really makes it pop I highly recommend this to all sci-fi and thriller lovers!

Terrible narration, overused deadly dozen theme
The story starts with the overused "Deadly Dozen" theme: an end-game convict is given a chance at freedom on the condition that he participates in some sort of perilous mission. I knew this was the setup from the plot description, but some of the glowing reviews led me to believe (yes, I was led, I let it happen, my fault, blah blah blah) that S.J. Morden had done a decent job with the old cliche. He didn't. The beginning is a very tired rehash of the "born to be bad" enlistment process. In addition, the narration was terrible - dull, slow and monotonous, with poorly acted characterizations. A big thumbs down on One Way.

good book, but unsatisfying ending
overall this was a great book. the storyline was unique and plausible, and I really like the fact that there was so much scientifically correct information in it. however, the ending was rather abrupt and unsatisfying. I also think there was much more opportunity to embellish the reasoning behind the decisions the company XO made.

One Way is a wild ride and a fun one.
One Way was a fantastic book. Wonderful premise, a Complicated main character, so much action, and enough gray morality to staff a campaign for president. The main character Frank states several times, "Mars wants to kill you." But what is it is not only Mars trying to kill you? Where one mistake can cause your blood to boil off into the thin atmosphere. William Hope handles the narration perfectly. The voices are all wonderful. My favorite secondary character was Zeus. One Way is a wild ride and a fun one.
