Starting off with an action scene, the story seems solid, quick, and detailed. Of course, the fact that the book is written by a Hugo Award-winning author certainly doesn’t damage its credibility! Futuristic but still realistic, this snippet gives me a good idea of the pace of the book. ![]() While the short audio preview is certainly not enough to review, it was of great quality, as with all Audible audiobooks.
