Compelling and detailed (and long!)

Review from Van Gogh →

The story drew me in and held me spellbound throughout – couldn’t put this down . The book is written in great detail and information supported by letters/correspondence, which was interesting but also lead to a redundancy – likely more noticeable in audio format. The author made the courageous and challenging effort to get into..

Book 2 is Nothing Special

Review from Soldiers of Fortune →

Like Book 1, Omega Rising, Book 2 is nothing special. If this book wasn’t already in my Audible library, I wouldn’t have considered it after struggling to get through Book 1. The books aren’t especially well written & the narrator’s laid back performance doesn’t help. These books would probably be ok if you haven’t read..

Worthwhile — represents a different tone

Review from Heavy Metal →

Should be 4&1/2 stars for narrative diversions and spurious dialog. As a human Dalzelle is maturing. So is the tenor of his writing.

Personally, I don’t think it’s ever necessary but, I get that that puts me in the..

Unique story with great narration

Review from Ella and the Beast →

The story moved at a good pace and the narration was really well done. I typically lean towards dual narration books, but that didn’t distract from the story for me. I..

Omega Boring

Review from Omega Rising →

I realize this is an accomplished author, but this book reads like it was written at a high school level. Perhaps this was an early work? Nothing very complicated, nothing really engrossing, uninteresting characters, unimaginative dialogue. Maybe it was the result of the laid-back narrator, but this story comes off as boring. Not much happens..

Terrible NY accent!!!!

Review from Inking Eagle →

I can’t say if the whole story is good or bad because I couldn’t get past the awful accent they gave the NY woman. I’m sorry but the narrator,s interpretation of accents is juvenile. Even the Aussie accent.
