A great adventure that happens to be a Sci-Fi novel

A great story that reminds me of the Firefly TV series, mixing elements of science fictions and classical western novels.

The novel is action driven and the characters continue to develop though the book.

Theo Holland uses voices and accents in the dialogue. The narration is well paced and he really brings the story to life.

A rollercoaster of an adventure you won't soon forget. Keeping you on the edge of your seat, Ken Cressman makes you feel as though you are right there with each of the characters in this non stop, wild and exciting undertaking.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Pegasus?

The clever plan used to get back to earth after their spacecraft was disabled.

Theo Holland brings this story to life with his multitude of voice characterizations. He made it much more engaging and entertaining than if I had just read the book. Very well done!

Best book I've listened to! Story had me from "go"

Would you listen to Pegasus again? Why?

Yes, I would, because I felt like "I was" Justin Thorne, & continually wanted to see if the character in the book would approach the various problems the same way I would.

What other book might you compare Pegasus to and why?

Not necessarily a book, but it reminded a great deal of the series "Firefly".

Have you listened to any of Theo Holland’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have listened to several of the books he recorded for "Sight Into Sound", & each production gets better.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Beware who you work for! Things aren't always as they seem.

Any additional comments?

The story grabbed me from the start. I really cared about the characters. The voice over work was flawless. Can't wait for more Justin Thorne adventures!

To Infinity and Beyond...

I had mixed feeling about this listen. On one hand the premise and the story itself was pretty good, but I think after reading the preview I had high expectations for it. On the other hand I really, really wanted more. I mean, frequent trips to the moon, anti-gravity and a post-apocalyptic setting what more could you ask for? Please don't get me wrong I really did like the storyline and found many things about this story interesting while rooting for our characters, but this story was just missing that something special that would have made it a 5 star book. The last hour or so of the book was fantastic and I could not stop listening however at times getting to that last hour was dragging. Especially during the scientific explainations but some were really good and added value to the story while others found me wanting to fast forward through. Our main character was well rounded and faced with some difficult decisions. I enjoyed him and thought he was well performed. I really wanted to find out more about our other crew members on the ship so hopefully we will get a look into their lives in a later book. The narration was done pretty good. It kept me engaged for most of the book and the narrator provided different voices for each character. As a male narrator I am sure doing female voices is difficult but he did a pretty good job. Personally, I think there could have been a little more excitement used in some scenes where there was more going on. Overall, this was a positive listening experience and I will check out the next adventure that Justin will be on. That will be a crutial turning point in the series. I was provided a free copy of this production from Audiobook Worm Promotions. This in no way affected my opinion or review of this title.
