Strong Finish

While I did find the finale for the Escheton series a little more satisfying, this was definitely a strong finish to this series. Thornton is great at tying up all of his various threads. The narration was fine, but did feature a surprising number of mispronunciations, which did take me out of the story a bit. Overall, a good finale for a good series.

A miracle ending.

This is the last of of John Thornton colony ship Vanguard series.
As usual Paul is a cry baby even so that he have seen much killing but coming from a dead earth to see such marvelous worlds and animals on the colony ship plus fighting aliens and still alive he got nothing to complain about if nothing else he should thank all the Gods for his luck.

Once again a different narrator, different voices for all characters, still Dani George narration is beautifully done for all characters.


My full recommendations !


Oded Ostfeld.
Ps:
This is the last of the colony ship’s series which I own, the last series which I miss to complete it all is the adventure of the Colony Ship the Warren.

Dip in the series

I like the genre and this series
The first standalone and series I’ve listened were excellent
Expecting more of the same, but unfortunately this one didn’t live up to the previous ones.
One character in particular who annoyed me immensely.
Up to the next books
