The Colony Ship Conestoga, Book 3

Using the help of Khin, a man born on the needle ship, and the artificial intelligence system Sandie, Jerome and Cammarry try to get parts of the old ship fixed and functional. But things do not go smoothly.

What will they discover? What new things await? How will they locate the lost habitats which made planet-fall somewhere on the unknown planet? What dangers will they encounter as are repairing the Conestoga?

Can the Conestoga ever be restored?

Cammarry and Jerome are aboard a section of the damaged colony ship Conestoga, attempting to make repairs. All the while, their section orbits a planet they know little about. Being just two desperate explorers from Dome 17, Cammarry and Jerome are lost without their connection to an AI named Sandie. And then their ally, a native of the Conestoga, goes missing. Also, secret forces are working to keep the explorers from discovering hidden truths. It doesn't take long before their goal of repairing the ship becomes secondary to their mere survival.

This installment in the Colony Ship Conestoga series was fairly good overall. At times, however, I feel as if the main characters are written to be less logical or intelligent than you'd expect from space-adventuring, near-total-global-collapse survivors. Narration by Lauren Holladay is good, as well.

Five Stars!

This is a really fun Sci-Fi adventure! Part of a multi-book series, Jerome and Cammary go looking for their friend Khin. The story line is really good, although I would listen to the rest of the series to get to know the characters better. The narration is really great and I'm looking forward to the next book... this is a cliff hanger!

Good sci-fi

The saga continues, and book 3 is of the same high standard. It is a good tale and our heroes continue to develop both in depth and strength.
Lots of action and tension.
Lauren Holladay is the third narrator in the series - and she has a wonderful voice, and it really suits the characters and story. This is the best narration of the series.

A good book and well worth the time to listen to.

My favorite book

The world of John Thornton is definitely a fantasy world and I had a lot of fun listening to this book. I enjoy his books and look forward to the next in this series. Ms. Holladay did a very good job narrating the book and I'm looking forward to book 4.

The Adventurers are back!

Jerome and Cammary are back in book 3, which has been my favorite one so far in the series. The pacing and narration are really good and Jerome and Cammary are starting to develop a relationship that goes deeper than friendship. Sandie the A.I. is also developing nicely and it seems like she will be a central figure in the coming books. Lauren Holladay does a great job as the narrator. She's got a lovely voice and makes the characters distinctive.
