Phenomenal book, simultaneously hilarious, sobering, scientific, and action-packed. Sanderson brings his usual genius to a story that blends scifi and western with a dash of fantasy.

The narrator did a spectacular job carrying not just the characters' voices, but their emotions.

I'm revisiting the Mitford series after reading through the first few books once when I was young. To be honest, I missed all of the depth the story has to it and got bored, but now as an adult, I am delighted and astonished at how deep the series really is. If you've heard "At Home in Mitford" is pure fluff, it might come across that way to some people. However, I offer that it covers everything from death, dying, depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, burnout, abandonment, medical dramas and traumas, drug rings, jewel theives, dog thieves, questioning faith, returning to faith, praying, finding Christ, finding family, and navigating a life that is not as idyllic as it seems. And it does it without weighing down the reader; through all of this there is hope, strength, love, and faith.

An excellent read for anyone who needs something a little slower, a little kinder, and very encouraging.

I'm not sure I can quantify exactly what I love about this series, but I love it tremendously. The writing is easygoing and witty, the narrator does an absolutely spectacular job, and the characters are just likeable and fun to hear about. I hope we get another novel in this series!

This is Romance, Not Serious Scifi

While I thoroughly enjoyed the science and exploration elements of this novella, the rest of the story felt like poorly written romance fanfic. A young, attractive woman on a decades-long mission with only three other humans, two of which are conveniently willing to sleep with her and the third is simply asexual. It was exceedingly weird. I just wanted cool, alien planets, not a throuple romance with some science thrown in.

A Witty, Satirical Look at the Scifi Genre

I'm not sure if this is the final book of the Jacques McKeown series or not, but -- if it is -- that is an absolutely perfect and spectacular ending. A witty, satirical, and blunt commentary on the scifi genre (and humans' obsession with stories as a whole), this book is definitely one of my top favorite space operas. And Yahtzee Croshaw did a spectacular job narrating the Audible version.

Excellent MilScifi with Superb Narration

First of all, the narration of this series is absolutely spectacular. Second of all, this is a really great series on its own. It does tend to get a little into the weeds with the descriptions and political chess games -- for my taste -- but the characters are exceedingly human and the humor is razor sharp.

This is my first time going through C.S. Lewis' Ransom Trilogy and I am absolutely delighted. The story is a little uneventful, but as Ransom said in the postscript letters: "...this is just the prologue." I am looking forward to the rest of the trilogy!

The narration is good, if a bit flat and monotone.

Delightful! I love Jules Verne and while "20000 Leagues Under the Sea" is still my favorite, this story is absolutely excellent. Hans is very much my favorite character and the wry, sarcastic humor that is woven throughout the book is hilarious. I definitely recommend it!

The narrator did an oustanding job in capturing Axel's wry tone, his uncle's personality, and in his pronunciation of all the various languages that were used.

I should put a disclaimer here that I love all the RCN books tremendously. The dynamic characters, the storytelling, the clean, easy-to-understand ship-to-ship battles; they make up a most excellent and fun to read/listen to space opera series. Some Golden Harbor is probably one of my least favorites, but that still puts it far ahead of other books and series. It focuses a bit too much on the political chess game that is being played around the characters for my taste, but there is still plenty to recommend it. Definitely enjoyed it!

I'm not sure I have much to say, except I still thoroughly enjoy this series. I love the optimism and hope the plot has. And I love the enthusiasm the characters have for fulfilling their roles in life.
