Story
In the year 2107, the world has both made astounding leaps forward and reduced humanity to its most basic existence. While the megacorps and those who rule them enjoy lives of extraordinary comfort and ease, most people barely scrape by, doing whatever they can to keep going. Juliet Bianchi is one of the latter. She works cutting metal in a scrapyard and doesn't have much to show for it except for a small group of equally bereft, fiercely loyal friends. Still, she maintains a bright disposition, possessing more hope and optimism than anyone would expect her to—and she's going to need it.

I really enjoyed this audiobook
Reviewed: 12-31-24
This is my first listen to this author, and I really enjoyed it. It was a good storyline, and the character development was equally as good.
Above all, the narrator was top-notch. Her command of the different voices was super.
I've already picked up the next book and that should speak volumes.

Story
A man awakens in a clearing in what appears to be medieval England with no memory of who he is, where he came from, or why he is there. Chased by a group from his own time, his sole hope for survival lies in regaining his missing memories, making allies among the locals, and perhaps even trusting in their superstitious boasts. His only help from the “real world” should have been a guidebook entitled The Frugal Wizard’s Handbook for Surviving Medieval England, except his copy exploded during transit.

First, the narration by both narrator was top-notch. The storyline itself was fun, with plenty of action and self-discovery. Character development was top-notch notch as well.
This audiobook was a departure from the usual Brandon Sanderson books I've listened to in the past, yet I strongly encourage you to consider it when looking for an enjoyable listen.

Sorry... Really? Thrust? Anyway, Danny Kendrick was a down-on-his luck performer who always struggled to find his place. He certainly never wanted to be a hero. He just hoped to earn a living doing what he loved. That all changes when he pisses off the wrong guy and gets sucked into a fantasy realm straight out of a Renaissance Fair. Getting used to a new world is tough. It's even tougher when you're surrounded by axe-wielding barbarians, super hot elf assassins, strange magic, and a jaded System that doesn't appear interested in being charged with yet another companion.

Reviewed: 12-10-24
I very much enjoyed this audiobook. It has tons of humor, a lot of action, and a real good storyline. I have nothing bad to say about the book although I wished at times that I could strangle the protagonist for being such a cowardly a-hole. All-in-All, an enjoyable listen.

Reviewed: 11-05-24
The narrator did a great job making it easy to distinguish the many, many characters voices. And each character had their own personalities. The book was a ton of fun, although there are sections where the script is adult themed. I'm an adult, so I don't care who listens to it. lol. Great narration, great storyline, and great character development.

Story
The Bobiverse is a different place in the aftermath of the Starfleet War, and the days of the Bobs gathering in one big happy moot are far behind. There’s anti-Bob sentiment on multiple planets, the Skippies playing with an AI time bomb, and multiple Bobs just wanting to get away from it all. But it all pales compared to what Icarus and Daedalus discover on their 26,000-year journey to the center of the galaxy.
