Christopher G. Nuttall’s novel of human fear and survival, set in the thrilling world of his Angel in the Whirlwind series.
A year after the Commonwealth won the war with the Theocracy, the interstellar cruise liner Supreme is on its maiden voyage, carrying a host of aristocrats thrilled to be sharing in a wondrous adventure among the stars. The passengers include the owner and his daughters, Angela and Nancy. Growing up with all the luxuries in the world, neither sister has ever known true struggle, but that all changes when a collision with a pirate ship leaves the cruiser powerless and becalmed in hyperspace. And they’re not alone.
Now, the mysterious force that’s living on this floating graveyard is coming for Supreme’s crew and passengers. As madness starts to tear at their minds, they must fight to survive in a strange alien realm.
And there’s no way out...

The book is well written. The basic idea of the story is ageless. I don’t think the story is up to the usual Nuttall standard. The owner of the ship and his two daughters are aboard the vessel and they are the key people in the story. Later in the book, the action is good. There was more foul language in this book than I can remember in all Nuttall’s other books. Ove all it is an interesting story.
The book is thirteen hours and fifty-nine minutes. Jennifer Jelsema does a good job narrating the book. Jelsema is a new narrator for me. Jelsema is an actress, voice actor and audiobook narrator.
Okay, but not great

Well crafted story but much slower

The narration is also outstanding.
I do hope that there will be more books in this series as I have enjoyed all of the books to date.
Really a surprise

The over-plotted set-up:
* Maiden voyage of an over-designed luxury liner full of snobby titled folks. The Corporation's owner and family are on board.
* Arranged marriage between Corporation's daughter and a wealthy family. She is not pleased.
* Handsome body-shopped lowly steward falls in love with her perfect face and body.
* Some members of the defeated Theocracy come on board.
* A serial killer is brought on for transport
* Trapped in a weird not-space, not hyperspace place, ship broke.
* Famous little sister is possessed.
* People start seeing things and hearing voices.
How many Star Trek episodes are combined here?
This is so much better than the Angel in the Whirlwind Kat books, but still has problems. Girl's arguments with her fiance are weak and brainless. Steward loves her for her looks. Nancy's situation is illogical and dumb. Serial killer plot point fizzles. But, note that this still gets 4 stars because it is interesting and exciting, and has aroused our curiosity. There's bound to be a sequel because several things are left unresolved, and well, when has Nuttall written a standalone book?
The narration is super annoying at first. You know the arguments of "mounTain" versus "mou^en"? Many people pronounce the word with a glottal stop for the middle T. This lady doesn't even have that. Didn't becomes dint, hadn't becomes hant, wouldn't is woont, and important is impor-ant. She puts the accent on the wrong syllable a couple times, to wit, reFORM as opposed re-form, meaning to shape again. Can't tell if one person's name is Belkin or Falcon. Someone on the bridge is named Title? Can't tell if they wear wrist coms or wrist cons (as in console?). Her voices are okay except for Captain Paul. She tries to imbue him with the gravitas of a mature, calm military leader, but he ends up sounding bored, tired and drugged. But if you listen through the annoyance, you get used to it, mostly.
I'm still going to hope for a sequel because, despite all my gripes, I am interested to see what happens next!
Star Trek has already solved every problem

Good story, annoying narrator.

Typically I love it when a voice actor can do different voices and different accents. That being said Ms Jelsema hit a pet peeve of mine. Dropping middle consonants in words. Specifically Ts and Ds
Didn't = Dint
Certain = Cer-in
Important = Impor-in
Wouldn't = woont
Couldn't = coont
and so on.
Had it been only in the dialog I could have dismissed it as accent or dialect but it was also in the narration. It really took away from the story for me as I winced sentence after sentence when it occurred.
Other than that Ms Jelsema's performance was fine. This is something she should work on as a professional. It would be OK to adopt such a manner of pronunciation if the material called for it but it should not be her baseline.
It will make me think twice about choosing books where she is the performer.
