Virtues of the Vicious

By: Martin Wilsey

Narrated by: A. T. Shore

Elizabeth Cruze came to Earth for one reason: to buy weapons. She never counted on ending up in prison. Never fear, though, she's not planning on staying there long.

Special Investigator Neal Locke has made a career out of catching the most elusive and dangerous criminals. He's never failed to "get his man".

When Cruze escapes from prison, Locke is tasked with tracking her down. She should be easy to find...all he's got to do is follow the trail of bodies.

But Locke has been an investigator for a long time. It doesn't take him long to figure out that there's more going on than what he's been told....

The cat has thumbs!

Wow, I loved this book!!! I swear it hit me dead center... Space Opera (✔).
Kickass protagonist (✔).
Well written (✔). Great mix of politics and action (✔).
Ship cat (✔).
... and coffee (✔).
Currently, this book appears to be a stand-alone, but I would seriously love to see another book or two following this small crew... And I'd love to see more of Bale the cat, did I tell you this cat is special? He's got thumbs!
A.T. Shore gave a Dynamite performance as she blew her way through Virtues of the Vicious...
If you love Space Opera like Nathan Lowell's stories, or Becky Chambers' books, I think your gonna love this Roundhouse story!!!

So Worth It!

Excellent audio!. It has intrigue, revenge, lots of action, a great female lead and mysterious AI's. I have to say I enjoyed all the characters, but love Cruz and the "cat" the best. All become bonded in their own unusual way as the fight to reclaim Cruz's homeland, with a surprise in the end. The narrator did an excellent job of creating these characters in my mind. I do so hope there's more from this team.
This audio was given to me free, and I voluntarily gave this review.

Intriguing and complex

Most the time I was trying to figure out what was going on. For me, that's something that I really enjoy. Complex character development and story line. Standard SciFi that brings you through a labyrinth of "what the...".

I look forward to more!

Worth a Listen!

A very entertaining science fiction novel. This had a ton of action and never felt like it slowed down. The authors portrayal of technology and how it affects society was intriguing and was one of my favorite parts about the book. The characters were also fleshed out and had me coming back for more.

The narrator did a fantastic job bringing the characters to life.

Fun sci-fi romp!

Great rollicking ride. Kept my interest the whole time. Great pacing and immersive world. Recommend!
