Once Dead by Richard Phillips
3.0
5 Stars for Narration by MacLeod Andrews
3 Stars for Story
Mini-Review:
The intro is a bit haphazard but it has enough going on to make me curious. The story became less and less plausible as it continued. I only made it to the end because Andrews did a fantastic job narrating this story. I made a comment about the story coming off like it's confused. Yup. That opinion remained to the end of the book.
Alien altered human becomes superhuman. Ok. Except that human was rather exceptional before the alteration and he's like the Mr. Awesome Black Ops. Elements of the story are cool. The way they're put together were snores-ville bland.
Darn. I was hoping to find another good SF series to listen to via KU's Read & Listen. This is not going to be it for me.
