What she didn't realize was that she would find herself on a collision course, not with a hostile government, but with the interstellar syndicate of criminals known as Manpower. And Manpower had its own plans for eliminating Manticore as a possible threat to its lucrative slave trade, deadly plans which remain hidden in the shadows.

My biggest gripe with the narrator is not his voices, few and sad though they may be, but his total lack of inflection. When a line in the books calls for excitement or shock or any other expression, the narrator plugs on through in an almost monotone. He is not the only narrator doing this. The narrator for Mr. Weber's Fifth Imperium series is even worse. In that series, not carried by Audible, the narrator has a halting manner in his reading and a lack of inflection and NO voices, all characters sound the same; male, female and alien.
Audible does not contract for the reading, but converts previously recorded material to mp3 or other format. Wish Audible had more influence with the publishers.
Good story, bad narrator

The events in "Storm from the Shadows" play an important role in the overall HH series, so you really need to read this book to fully appreciate the genius of these stories. But, man is it ever a chore to listen to Snyder's narration! And it's not just the female voices either; he often puts an entirely inappropriate inflection on a line that's made instantly apparent by the immediate context (e.g., putting a forceful inflection on a line followed by the words, "she said doubtfully," or a doubtful inflection on a line followed by "she said dryly," etc.). You'd think the producer would have stopped him a few times, and said, "Now wait a minute there Jay, you got that all wrong, let's try it again, and this time make it sound like you're asking a question..."
If you've ever listened to a Scott Brick narration--and Brick is pretty good, but you have to admit he can be a little overly dramatic at times--it's as though Snyder is doing his Scott Brick imitation between Monty Python imitations--and he's not close to pulling off either. But if you're like me, you'll suffer through this narration anyway, because the story is entertaining and important. All else considered, it's a must read for Honor Harrington fans who need to fully appreciate the self-righteous arrogance of the Solarian League Navy--first established in this book--and how the Mesan Alignment is so easily able to manipulate them against Manticore.
Great Story Marred by Comically Torturous Narrator

Would you consider the audio edition of Storm from the Shadows to be better than the print version?
I haven`t read the printed version. So can`t comment on that.What did you like best about this story?
I liked the new setting, with Henke as the main protagonist, reading about the empire building in Talbott. And the tensions with the Solarian league.Which character – as performed by Jay Snyder – was your favorite?
I don`t have a particular favorite and i rated the performance down some cause i think Snyder creates annoying voices for some of the charactersDid you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Not really noAny additional comments?
If you like the Honor Harrington series then this is a most buy. But you need to have read the previous books before you get this one.Honorverse still fun
