Really enjoyed this one

Continues to be a great story and entertaining can’t put it down love the characters keep up the good work!

Excellent Performance, Great Book

There are a LOT of characters to keep track of and that can sometimes make it hard for people bad with names to keep things straight. the author is pretty good at giving you clues which is nice, but the performer always impresses me with his ability to give everyone including, and especially the bots. It breathes life into each character and makes them almost whole. Wish I could see an artist's rendition of the characters in high fidelity. My imagination runs wild, influencing how each bot might look. For instance, in my head, for some reason Sally seems to be shaped very speak like an upside down tear drop with a head and a hover body, even though I have no reason for it she seems to be very matrony like a robot Mary Poppins but in a bot form. Tax on the other hand seems like he would be more boxy, however, and would have a looseness about him that could be mistaken for lose firing parts but really speaks more to his ability.... I don't know where they're coming from but between the writing and narration this is the kind of thing I come up with.

That being said cliffhangers are harsh and while the book ended satisfactorily it's not a great ending. I have the next two in print but will wait. I live the writing style, the fact that everyone 'says' stuff every time in the dialogs is interesting as some writers will leave off who is saying something if there are day only two people speaking to help the flow, since the performer gives so much life to the characters they could almost be omitted. the nice thing is the performer gets into a particular cadence with it and it flies very well. it only gets bad during staccato responses.

The growing complexity

Having listened through this far, I am anxious to see where the story goes. The interest generated has keep me listening while ignoring history books.

Fun listen Good story

The continued adventures of Bob and Nikki is worthy book. wonderful narration, smooth voice

still fun

thoroughly enjoyed this book package. books eight and nine. still going strong, still a lot of fun. world building continues at a much slower pace, as they expand out and explore. looking forward to the next books. recommended.

the story continues

definitely chuckled at it quite a bit! if you liked the earlier books then you won't be disappointed.

Loads of fun

I’m on the road a lot and have really enjoyed listening to Bob and Nikki. These stories and narrator help pass the hours with highly creative plots and voices.

Another great adventure

This is another great adventure with Bob and Nikki. Jerry does a wonderful job of making this story come alive. I really enjoy Jerry’s books.

Love the southern accent

Great story line, wonderful accent too Can’t wait for the next installment. I will be looking into authors other books as well.

Great Plot Too Much He Said She Said

I really enjoy these stories! The plots are a great combo of humor and sci fi adventure. My only disappointment is there’s lots of “I said…” “Nikki said…” “Scotti said…”. It gets really repetitive. If the narrator could read it with different voices (which he does) it’s not really necessary.
