Historia
Two astronomers have detected a strange, pulsing signal from deep space. Within hours, the US government goes into lockdown, restricting airspace and scrubbing scientific data. Was the signal an intercepted communication revealing alarming plans for an enemy’s military strike? Or has humanity at long last found proof of extraterrestrial life?

faulty hinge collapses whole story
Revisado: 04-05-25
trying not to do too much spoiling, but the person chosen to reveal the details of the plan was about the last person who could ever have gotten away with it. there is no way to suspend disbelief enough to make that choice plausible.

Missed the Mark
Revisado: 11-18-24
this just didn't work for me. I could have been in the wrong mood for humor, but nothing really struck me as funny. the Mario portion felt like something a group of college freshmen would come up with after a frat party.

Historia
Opportunity is presented to Admiral Cordelia. Imperium’s Presiding Executor Gaketork sends emissaries to establish communications with her, and she responds by installing a comm system aboard the executor’s transport. The Imperium governor, who has become sentient, uses the new comm system to send her critical data. Cordelia shares the governor’s information with newly assembled Trident squadron commanders. She directs the commanders to scour another executor’s territory and free suborned worlds of mercenary Radags and Krackus overseers.

Slow background building
Revisado: 03-04-24
knowing that this is a large series, you have to accept that some books set the stage for future adventures. this one does not have a lot of action, but there will hopefully be a payoff in the next book or two.

Historia
Do you speak money? You should. It is the world's most important language. It's spoken everywhere. Speaking - or at least understanding - this language allows you to follow the real conversations in politics, business, and at work. Understanding money and speaking the language fluently is critical to preparing for a comfortable retirement, building a small business, or planning for college and a career for your children. Everyone speaks it differently, with different dialects.

very primitive introduction to personal economics
Revisado: 11-22-23
this was 10 years old when I noticed it and downloaded as part of the free audible collection. obviously, their perspectives were contemporary, and economic conditions have changed drastically since this was recorded. the basics are still true - don't spend more than you earn, put money into long-term savings for retirement, and don't keep Financial secrets from your significant other.
some of the least useful information was about colleges and cost of education. at the time, and certainly now, I did not feel that college is were quotation mark doing everything they

Historia
Cremsylon and his companions visited the center of the Imperium Empire. That provided an opportunity for Kreus, the first Krackus SADE, to contact the Imperium governor, an AI who controls the planet’s communications. It’s also the repository for the empire’s critical data. The visit to Imperium happens, not once, but twice. Each time, Kreus spends time perusing the governor’s records, invasions that the AI is incapable of stopping. These intrusions initiate an odd sequence of events.

a bit slow, lots of table setting
Revisado: 10-03-23
this one didn't have as much action as some installments in this series. had more of the ethical implications of treating new species and digital entities with respect or with fear and violence. looking forward to more action in the next one.

Historia
Two years ago, a hostile Prime Minister launched the Monochrome inquiry, investigating "historical over-reaching" by the British Secret Service “to investigate historical over-reaching.” Monochrome’s mission was to ferret out any hint of misconduct by any MI5 officer—and allowed Griselda Fleet and Malcolm Kyle, the two civil servants seconded to the project, unfettered access to any and all confidential information in the Service archives in order to do so. But MI5’s formidable First Desk did not become Britain’s top spy by accident, and she has successfully thwarted the inquiry at every turn.

tough early slog, entertaining second half
Revisado: 09-27-23
like some other listeners, I really struggled in the early part of this book it could have used a little less of the emphasis on how boring the commission was, as the boringness translated to the storyline.
once the plot started moving, it was much, much more interesting and entertaining. loved hearing the history of characters detailed, and enjoyed having some of my suspicions confirmed and others disproven.

Historia
Slough House is a dumping ground for British intelligence agents who've screwed up cases in any number of ways - by leaving a secret file on a train or blowing a surveillance. River Cartwright, one such "slow horse", is bitter about his failure and about his tedious assignment transcribing cell phone conversations. When a young man is abducted and his kidnappers threaten to broadcast his beheading live on the Internet, River sees an opportunity to redeem himself.

I have listened to all of the audiobooks as well as watched both seasons of the television version. I have enjoyed both, and relistening ads for depth to the story. I wil continue listening through the current volume.

Historia
It's been five years since Carter Blake parted ways with the top-secret government operation Winterlong. They brokered a deal at the time: he'd keep quiet about what they were doing, and in return he'd be left alone. But news that one of Blake's old allies is dead, a man who agreed to the same deal, means only one thing: something has changed and Winterlong is coming for him.

Solid, if unspectacular
Revisado: 04-17-23
I like the main character, and most of the plot in this series, but a couple of tremendously unbelievable things weekend the overall effect. trying not to provide any spoilers, but the man he meets in the truck is just absolutely unrealistic.

It has been 20 years since Prince Bifalt of Belleger discovered the Last Repository and the sorcerous knowledge hidden there. At the behest of the repository's magisters, and in return for the restoration of sorcery to both kingdoms, the realms of Belleger and Amika ceased generations of war. Their alliance was sealed with the marriage of Bifalt to Estie, the crown princess of Amika. But the peace - and their marriage - has been uneasy. Now, the terrible war that King Bifalt and Queen Estie feared is coming.

More Action and a LOT of table setting
Revisado: 02-02-23
Typical of Donaldson's works, neither victory nor defeat is ever pure. The stage is set for the finale. I expect no character will come out unscathed.
