Historia
The boys of Huaxia dream of pairing up with girls to pilot Chrysalises, giant transforming robots that can battle the mecha aliens that lurk beyond the Great Wall. It doesn't matter that the girls often die from the mental strain. When 18-year-old Zetian offers herself up as a concubine-pilot, it's to assassinate the ace male pilot responsible for her sister's death. But she gets her vengeance in a way nobody expected—she kills him through the psychic link between pilots and emerges from the cockpit unscathed.

amazing story and performance
Revisado: 02-28-25
I am utterly floored by this amazing story. It drew me in immediately and wouldn't let me go. I'm so glad I listened instead of just eyeball reading.

Smooth and in-depth storytelling
Revisado: 12-27-24
Experiencing this story was like being in a high speed train. So much happened and was revealed, but it was all rather seamless and smooth, like a train ride (In Europe). The moral conundrums explored in this story will definitely have me listening again. The narrator conveyed the scientist's mindset and setting so very well.

Kept me smiling while on the edge of my seat
Revisado: 12-27-24
I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook! It brought to mind the fantasy martial arts movies I grew up watching with my dad and the Asian dramas I love watching now. The author narrates, and he does a fabulous job capturing each character's personality. I loved the banter between the characters, especially!

Historia
Seven years ago, Tanvi was spirited away to the subterranean realm of Nagalok, where she joined the ranks of the dream runners: human children freed of all memory and emotion, who collect mortal dreams for the entertainment of the serpentine, immortal naga court. But when one of Tanvi’s dream harvests goes awry, she begins to remember her life on earth. Panicked and confused, she turns to the one mortal in Nagalok who might be able to help: Venkat, the dreamsmith responsible for collecting the dream runners’ wares and shaping them into the kingdom’s most tantalizing commodity.

Revisado: 12-27-24
I thoroughly enjoyed what each narrator brought to the story. Soneela really captured Tanvi's spectrum of emotions as they evolved. Venkat's desires were so vivid with Vikas' narration. The world of Nagalok was brilliant from both characters perspectives. My child and I both read this, and agree that we'd love to visit this world.

Historia
Nineteen-year-old Katrina van Tassel knows she’s a disappointment to her parents, for more reasons than one. But as the only daughter of the most prominent family in Sleepy Hollow, she never imagined that she would be chosen as the next sacrifice. Or that in her attempt to escape, she would instead come face to face with the Horseman himself.

I really enjoyed this Sleepy Hollow inspired tale and it's narration. The mystery began early and kept me riveted to the story while more layers were introduced.

Historia
In this emotionally powerful and intellectually provocative blend of memoir, cultural criticism, and theory, scholar and essayist Samira Mehta reflects on many facets of being multiracial. Born to a white American and a South Asian immigrant, Mehta grew up feeling more comfortable with her mother’s family than with her father’s—they never carried on conversations in languages that she couldn’t understand or blamed her for finding the food was too spicy.

I really enjoyed this book. There were many points where my experience differed from the author's, and that gave me a lot of food for thought as well.

Historia
Arianna Ward doesn't have a lot to look forward to in life, least of all freedom. She's spent a year being tortured and bitten as a vampire's pet, and when she's sold to a new master on her 19th birthday, she's sure she's in for another awful year ahead. But her new master is different. His name is Ren. He has secrets—and plans. He wants to make a fair trade with Arianna, and the offer on the table is her freedom. Ren wants her to complete one task for him, and then she can walk away from the horrors of the supernatural world forever.

I loved this story and I thought the narrator was perfect for this character.
I really enjoyed Arianna's evolution, especially since I started out feeling so badly for her since she had sadly adapted to her circumstances in the beginning.

This is such an amazing story! It had such a heart wrenching start that I immediately bonded with the main character. I loved the emotion the narrator brought to this character, especially considering some of the hurdles she has to overcome.
Amazing performance all the way around!!! Highly recommend!

Engaging story and narrator!

I usually listen to my audiobooks on 1.5x, but slowed this one down to normal time so I could experience the full performance! I enjoyed this story so much!
Listen to the sample so you can confirm what I'm saying and then buy it! Just what I needed while I brought in firewood, fed my animals, went on walks, and all of the other things I do that don't need my ears!
