Homeworld Lost

De: J.N. Chaney, Scott Moon

Narrado por: Neill Thorne

During a test flight for the world’s first warp engine, Major Noah Gantz is set to go down in the history books.

Despite years of training, the mission goes sideways, and instead of a quick trip to the moon and back, Noah's ship is transported across the universe to stars unknown.

Stranded in space and on the brink of death, Noah is rescued by a sentient starship and its captain. To save his life, the ship’s own biomatter must replace his failing cells.

Now, Noah is different. Stronger, faster...and there’s a voice in his head.

The voice of the ship itself, and its name is Kayan.

With no way to return home, Noah must adapt and rebuild his life in this unfamiliar corner of the universe. And as he does, he discovers a looming threat in the far reaches of space, growing in power, and set on capturing Noah and his ship.

Worse still, this new enemy knows about Earth...and it has big plans.

the cowardly pilot

the plot and storyline are indeed interesting. this is much like the TV show Farscape, with quasi-similar characters, though the "titan lord" character is very interesting. the only annoying thing, that distracted from the experience, is the human pilot who demonstrates a cowardly approach toward enemies that are intent on killing him and the crew of the living spaceship. this is not characteristic of typical military leadership in the real world. I'll continue on to the next book because the remaining characters are interesting and I'm interested in how they "flesh-out," so-to-speak. hopefully the main character becomes a little less squeamish.

reminds me if farscape

so far loving it.. I plan on listening to more. Description of the personalities of everyone is interesting. I like a hero who's lucky as well as clever.

Mediocre

They phoned this one in. It could have been great, but the storytelling is slow paced, the characters irrational, the hero is weirdly pacifist, and the plot twists are trivially predictable. The narrator is no better than the story too.

Great story

Engaging story, I grabbed the second book right away. Invested in the characters and the story

all talk

Noah is all talk hopeless story of a non hero I'm not sure why writers took a pathway of noah verbally a drip head whos fighting skills a non extant a few kicks, and some how his weaponless living ship saves the day well anyone but not Noah

a good story. well told. I am signing up for book two.

ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok no maybe kinda should I? who knows?

Farscape but not as good

Narrating was the worse part. If someone like ray porter had done this he would have brought the characters to life. Otherwise you could just read it and get the same bland presentation. Won’t continue.

I think the story is great BUT

The story is great but the way the narrator tells it is very slow and almost confusing to understand. There is always the same tone. Not excited not calm just the same. I have almost every audiobook by JN Chaney and would recommend them all and I hate to say it except this one.

Epic Sci Fi Adventure!

Chaney and Moon have really settled into a comfortable groove of writing fun and exciting stories that capture you from the start…action, comedy, heartfelt emotion, the authors both bring to life a tale that sucks you in! The characters all have personality and you can feel a real connection to them…I really enjoyed Neill Thorns narration…very entertaining!

an easy listening but not yet a favorite

The story is interesting, However, it is difficult to develop sympathy for a main character who seems not to spot the obvious, leading to harm for his ship and crew. While this likely helps add some tension into the story it seems to come at the expense of the protagonists competence.
