Review from Talon the Slayer →
Talon made me think of one those horror movies that jumped the shark and had a in space episode. This absolutely felt like Conan the Barbarian in space. His crew didn’t really remind me of Guardians of the Galaxy outside of them being a ragtag crew of mismatched aliens who happen to be trying to..

I was taken back to the early pulp movies and books and that was a good thing. The main character was great and though not as fleshed out the supporting characters all performed their part. the Narrator did a good job of bringing everything to life. I am definitely looking forward to the rest in..

Strong action from start to finish, and winds down smoothly and tastefully. Vocal pressure was professionally accomplished throughout book. Plot switching was plotted well by author. I recommend this audiobook for ages 17 and older due to some adult situations and violence. I was given this audiobook for free and I freely give my rating..

I’m a huge fan of pulpy sci-fi. Ate it up as a kid. Movies like Star Wars were my gateway drug, but then I discovered flicks like Battle Beyond The Stars, Starcrash, Hands Of Steel, Yor: The Hunter From The Future, and Spacehunter…just to name a few. A. A. Warren brings us Talon the Slayer;..

Talon the Slayer An old fashioned “blood and guts” rip roaring sci-fi adventure that doesn’t pretend to be sophisticated. Just high entertainment. Simple straightforward plot, okay fantasy universe and lots of non stop action. It is extremely well read by Travis Baldree. I am a huge fan of vocal acting and have enormous respect for..

I don’t typically read (or listen to) steampunk or give out 5 star reviews for books, but this book was masterfully written. The narrator’s voices for the characters took some getting used to, but it didn’t take long. Carthage and Huxley are two unlikely heroes. Carthage is an illusionist/robot engineer hiding a long term illness..
Steampunk isn’t my normal thing, but the author offered me a review copy & I jumped on it. I was immediately captured by the narrator, but the characters & world made this one of my favorite reads so far this year. Well done!
First things first, I received a free copy of this audiobook from the author and am voluntarily leaving my honest review. As is my wont, let’s talk about the narrator first. He has a good assortment of voices and skillfully controls his tempo. As often happens with deep-voiced male narrators, however, he struggles a bit..
This is an imaginative story. I like the way Mollie Reeder creates a world full of the impossible. When you have a flying horses, electric jugglers and a train in the sky, then you have to have a great imagination. Very much enjoyed the story and I’m looking forward to book 2. Travis Baldree does..
Another winning Travis Baldtree narrated audiobook. He totally brings the characters alive with emotion (or in Kadka’s case, lack of emotion but full of jokes) and their unique voices. A non magical main character uses his knowledge of the world to solve a crime. I’m not crazy about that premise but it worked. I’m just..
