Acerca de esta escucha

In this inventive and heartfelt take on a dystopian space opera, humanity’s last hope comes complete with a space station, an attitude, and …whiskers?

Civilization has fallen. The solar system is blanketed with the automated weapons of ancient wars, engineered plagues, hazardous waste, rogue AI, monsters from outside our dimension, artificial disasters, and nuclear climate change. Every moment of life on Earth is a brutal fight for survival. The people of Sol carry on, but hope is at a premium. They need something more. Someone with a plan, a savior, a hero.

What they get is Lily. Owner of the last functional battle station for the last four hundred years by right of being the last living soul on it, Lily ad-Alice has spent all that time struggling to save lives, fend off loneliness, and operate human-made weapons controls with paws and meows. Four centuries of establishing protocols, figuring out how to utilize an irresponsibly large arsenal of orbital weaponry, and scraping by with what life support still functions.

Lily doesn’t have a plan. She can’t even tell how haunted her home is. Every day is an endless stream of alarms and crises—it’s a lot for a lone desperate housecat to handle herself. But being the proprietor of the last piece of working orbital infrastructure in existence is a responsibility and duty she’s accepted anyway.

Now things are changing again. Something big is looming, and everything Lily has scrambled for hundreds of years to achieve is at risk. But if she’s quick, maybe she can do some good. If she’s cunning, maybe she can adapt. If she’s smart, maybe she can build something that lasts this time. And if she’s very, very lucky, maybe she won’t have to do it alone.

The hit science-fiction tale—with more than 900,000 views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

An amazing narrator for a fantastic story

While I enjoy audiobooks, I rarely find that narrators add to my experience vs. reading for myself: it takes longer, their voices don't match what I have pictured in my head, etc. This book is a wonderful exception to that rule. Eva absolutely NAILS the main character. Her pacing, inflection, and humor are perfect and really make this book come alive. I went back and forth between reading and listening, depending on circumstance, and the audiobook was more fun.

As for the book itself, it is cute, whimsical, humorous, touching, and unexpectedly adventurous. There were several points that I definitely did not expect and I think the author delivered something far greater than the somewhat silly premise might imply. Well worth a read or a listen.

Tom Clancy in Space. SciFi fans will love it

I am not a SciFi reader usually. I teach ELA7 (12-13 year olds) and I make them read a book from a different genre four times throughout the school year. I searched on Audible for CAT BOOKS (my wife loves cats, and I thought it'd be fun to try one). She couldn't get into it after 30 minutes, but I persevered and here we are!

Back when Tom Clancy was alive and writing books, most of his books followed the same route: a slow burn for 3/4th, then the last 1/4 was explosive, awesome, fantastic, and made up for the slow roll prior 75%. This book is like that for non-SciFi people like me.

SOME SPOILERS BELOW
Pros:
Lilly was a fun character and she had a fantastic sense of humor
It was engaging. I could get into the action and I could (almost) follow all of it
Super technical stuff. I read The Martian and the technical jargon was plenty but not insanely complex to follow. The author has played Starcraft, Halo, and a great deal of other awesome fun space games.
Relatable. A mix of Groundhog Day, Fifth Element, Edge of Tomorrow, 2001, Multiplicity, and a host of other SciFi movies

Cons:
Sometimes Lilly was TOO smarmy. Lilly's sarcasm and cute expressions are a lot to ask of a reader over the span of 19 hours. This is nitpicky point, so it is a minor con.
I got a little lost in the flashbacks and it took me way too long to piece it all together. I blame my lack of SciFi experience, so this is also a minor con
Length. nineteen hours is a great amount of time to demand of a non SciFi reader, but DANGIT! I finished it and the last 40 minutes made the average Tom Clancy fantastic climax look like Ferris Bueller's history class.

If I had to do it all over again, would I spend 6 weeks listening to this as I drove back and forth to school?

Yes. I challenged myself with a genre I am not usually a fan of. I've read Ender's Game, Starship Troopers, and that's about it. I feel proud to have finished this behemoth, and right meow I am very happy I read it.

Interesting and Unique

The story was good and unique, the audible narrator does an amazing job too. My only complaint would be that Lily acts more like a dog who recently lost her owner than a cat who lost her owner hundreds of years ago. Lily also lacks the apathy and aloofness of solitary predators like cats. Which in turn drives the chronic depression in nearly every chapter. A very good example of why apathy is a defense mechanism against becoming overwhelmed and getting into an emotional death spiral. Bear in mind it does get better as she overcomes things through the book and ends really good.

loved it then and especially now

listened to it from the beginning to the end loving every second of it. This is my 3rd time with the story and the vocal performance adds things in a story that you could never get through just text

Excellent narrator. Fun story.

I loved the narration. It really brought the whole story to life. It was fun. The cat protagonist creates unique opportunities that the author takes full advantage of. If there’s a sequel, I’d be happy to read it.

Phenomenal

There wasn’t a single part that I didn’t like. The artful mastery of bringing all of the fun little tidbits together and painting a picture that you can finally see after so many hints was fantastically executed. I started this read as a silly little book, and ended up emotionally invested in all of the characters.

Interesting premise.

There is way more to this story than just an uplifted cat. I listened to it twice to catch the nuances.

Refreshing read

I really enjoyed this one. Hard scifi with a twinge of fantasy… and cats! Also I like that the author didn’t try to drag this out into a series like so many do nowadays. Like the title says, a refreshing read.
