Outsystem

The Intrepid Saga, Book 1

De: M. D. Cooper

Narrado por: Khristine Hvam

Major Richards needs to get out of the Sol System.

Demoted by the military and hung out to dry, the media labels her the Butcher of Toro. Despite her soiled record, Tanis still one of the best military counterinsurgency officers in the Terran Space Force. They need her to find the terrorists responsible for trying to destroy the GSS Intrepid, a massive interstellar colony ship in the final phases of construction at the Mars Outer Shipyards.

It'll be her ticket out of the Sol system, but Tanis discovers she is up against more than mercenaries and assassins. Major corporations and governments have a vested interest in ensuring the Intrepid never leaves Sol, ultimately pitting Tanis against factions inside her own military.

With few friends left, Tanis will need to fight for her life to get outsystem.

Great Sci Fi

I am very picky about audio books because the narrator really determines a lot. Khristine does a great job and this is the first book I've listened to or read by M.D. and it was great. Great story and characters and character development. Going to head over now and get the second book.

My new favorite SFF author!

I just finished the audiobook of Outsystem and thoroughly enjoyed myself. It was a heck of a ride! It has a kick-ass heroine who can take care of herself, thank you very much, and pretty much non-stop action. There are some really creative solutions to equally creative problems, and I was constantly pulled along to the next page. I don't really know how good the science is, but I didn't really consider that question at all during the book. The writing made everything seem reasonable, which is a very neat trick for an author to have in their back pocket. I am thrilled to find an author who can write a strong woman in charge and keep a fabulous plot going at the same time, and intend to binge-listen to the next audiobooks in this series. MD Cooper is my new favorite sff author!

Amazing Ride

This is a very nicely paced story with the right amount of down time as not to pound your senses with nonstop action. I am one book #4 quickly and #5 by early next week.

A fabulous book well perfomed

This was an awesome story performed exceptionally well. Can't wait for the next one! Get it now.

Really fun!

Narrator is superb, writing is very good (although very fond of technobabble). Good choice if you like Sci fi!

easy to listen to but just entertainment not deep

The action is good, the writing is vivid, but the characters lack depth and it's usually very obvious what will happen next. In one scene one of the support characters dies and though they are supposed to be a very close knit bunch there is barely any reaction. That pretty much sums up the downside if this book. lt lacks emotional reality, but I still enjoyed it as entertainment

Very good. Stayed interesting.

Reader is amazing. Clever & leaves you curious. The AI's are really cool. Maj Richards is a great lead charictor.

Read it for the tech-infused vision of the future

Definitely Military scifi, but more character conscious than Ringo. I enjoyed Tanis and her AI, but some of the situations she gets herself into result from sheer recklessness that seems out of character for a military professional. It's fun though and there's some hella cool tech. There were switches to the terrorists POV that were few and far between and I can't see served any real purpose. One of those had me convinced that Terence, one of the top guys on the Intrepid, was part of the terrorist group and I kept waiting for Tanis to nail him. She never did. Now I'm not sure if I heard that wrong or we're waiting for the next book. This one did set up the next catastrophe Tanis will have to live through to save thousands of lives. It's a little Lost in Space. Maybe I'll pick it up.

Great Read!

Excellent plot and action. I really enjoyed this. This genre is not what I usually go for but I have to say I am hooked.

Very fast paced book. Lots of action.

A must read or listen! Tactically awesome, lots of over technical jargon but easy yo follow.
