Travis Baldree
J. Barton Mitchell's The Razor is a riveting science-fiction thriller about a man struggling to survive the chaos on a prison planet.
Brilliant engineer Marcus Flynn has been sentenced to 11-H37 - a hard labor prison planet better known as the Razor, where life expectancy is short and all roads are dead ends - alongside the galaxy's most dangerous criminals. At least until the Lost Prophet goes active....
In a few hours, prison guards and staff are evacuated, the prisoners are left to die, and dark mysteries begin to surface. Only Flynn has the skills and knowledge to unravel them, but he will have to rely on the most unlikely of allies - killers, assassins, pirates, and smugglers.
If they can survive each other, they just might survive the Razor....and claim it for their own.

The plot unfolds quickly and immediately pushes you to the edge of your seat. Everything with the penal colony is not as usual and soon the thrill ensues. There is a lot going on with this prison planet, but there isn’t much time to explore it, because as soon as Flynn arrives chaos ensues. With the chaos you are greeted by a mixture of characters and creatures. Flynn indivertibly assembles a bandit team who eventually is put to a task greater than just saving themselves.
This book really had a nice mixed crew of characters. Truly some unique ones that are quite colorful that I would really like to see more of with potentially their own origin stories. The characters were well thought out and really advance the story. Zane was my absolute favorite, especially with Baldree’s voice for him. Seemed to me he may have received some inspiration from Bane, the original comic book depiction, and not from any of the movies. Gabel was another great character, and one you can tell Baldree really enjoyed narrating her. With the exception of Flynn, none of this crew is a person of moral character, yet all come together to fight a good fight and I rooted for all of them despite their personal motivations. Very much like some of the more recent comic book movies.
Travis Baldree is an amazing narrator. You can hear in is narration that he loves what he does and really likes the books he narrates. That makes every book he does so much fun and just an absolute blast to listen to. His voices for male and female characters are fantastic as he has such a range for them all. I absolutely loved his voice for Zane, as usual with Baldree’s narrations, he really gets you into the stories with all his character voices and if you close your eyes you can see everything unfold.

This was a fantastic sci fi story with an intensity you usually find in horror and thrillers. I thought the story was great and the characters were very engaging and fun to listen to. The narration was fantastic. Travis Baldtree really made this book come alive in my mind. Before I knew it, the book was over. I would highly recommend this to any sci fi fan!
one of the best sci fi books I listened to in 2018

The narration was totally on top of it! The voices of men, women, emotions, and everything else was excellent as usual for this narrator! As always, great job!
A raw and gritty galactic prison story!

High point: Interesting Premise
High Point: Good writing
Low Point: Too long - this story didn't warrant this length in telling.
Low Point: Very slow beginning - it takes forever to get to the action. The build up was tiresome to me. If you bill yourself as action oriented - then do that, please and thank you.
Low Point: Relationships of characters unbelievable. Junkie Doctor motivates a Ranger turned inmate who failed to take action on something that haunts him. Big brain and gutter mouse - he's the bytch in the relationship - and no the attraction makes no sense. Super solider searching for something lost (I think this is the most interesting character in the bunch). Scientist/Mutant - reminds me of the snake in the grass - that you know is probably there - but you sometimes forget to watch out.
Low Point: Missed Opportunities - could have been so many epic battle scenes.
Low Point: Characters development/motivations. Madonna/Whore trope - really? In dangerous situations - but minds are on relationships/feelings about other characters. Morality - either a demon/angel - people aren't built that way.
Final thoughts:
Would I recommend it? No.
Would I listen to it again? No.
Will I seek out the next book in the series - because this book's ending suggests heavily that there will be one? No.
Some High Points....but many more low points.
