The story and writing were great, but it was hard to tell which character was speaking. Not much variation between characters, and read in a monotonal voice. not exciting to listen to.

To borrow a phrase from the book …reading this book is mostly hours of boredom mixed with minutes of entertainment. There’s several chapters dedicated to checklists. For lay people. No good. Course I will say that the introduction did warn of this. However, I had already bought the book so was going to work through..
Enjoyed immensely

This was an awesome book. I loved the idea of being in a submarine with evilness. Not trying to give away too much here. It’s a terrible situation to be in. Great atmospheric
Deeply inspiring

Every engineer should read this book. It contains wonderful insights from the study of intelligence and brains.
I quite enjoyed the first two books about Lev and crew, but this third installment felt like the needle scratches across a skipping record. What happened? It’s a shame that this was not a trilogy of two. Leave this one and imagine your own ending. I guarantee it is better than this drivel.
Not much to enjoy here. It’s kinda like listening to the military industrial complex fantasize about space being exactly like a modern-times military campaign. All the time. The protagonists, who are essentially indistinguishable from one another besides their rank and specialty within the team, are given a Deus Ex Machina plot device in the first..
Hard to listen to. Such an obvious rip-off, I can’t believe the author had the gall. Recommend against buying this book.
This was a very good story that was ruined by the continuing juvenile banter of the suppressed military officers in the story. I listened to about half of it but then gave up on it. Don’t waste a credit.
Very good documentation.
Review from Moral Imperative →
Very thorough research but the narrator’s pronunciation of SEA locations could have been better. 1972 was a tough year in SEA especially for aviators.
If you like space operas, and who the hell doesn’t? Good story, fast paced, leading to a awesome series.
