Void Drifter

Void Drifter, Book 1

De: Jason Anspach, J.N. Chaney

Narrado por: Mark Boyett

The Amazon rainforest holds a world-changing secret—a ship lost to time from another world.

College student Will Kaufman unearthed the biggest archaeological discovery in human history… he just needs to find a way back to Earth to tell people about it.

Four thousand years ago, a Federation bounty hunter Void ship crashed on a remote and primitive planet. There it remained until Will found it and accidentally reactivated it, launching him light-years away.

With the crew—and its prisoners—awakened from cryo-sleep, Will has no choice but to go along with Captain Fera and her pilot-turned-holographic AI. Seen as a naïve primitive, Will must navigate complex alien cultures, explore the far reaches of the galaxy, and battle a tyrannical empire seeking to finish off a haggard and weary rebel faction just to be granted a ticket back to Earth.

As Will shows an uncanny ability to navigate the mysterious realm of wormhole travel known as the Void, he begins to thrive in a galaxy not meant for humans.

Home is only a half-million light-years away, but when life on a spaceship is this much fun… does Will really want to go back?

One of the best Mark Boyett excels in this series starter, Void Drifter

I'll admit at the beginning of this review that I am a fan of both writers, J.N. Chaney and Jason Anspach. It's like seeing the flashing HOT NOW sign at Krispy Kreme Donuts. You know it's going to be worth the detour, no matter what else you may be doing or, in this case, reading.
The new series starter, Void Drifter, is excellent. Imagine Indiana Jones meets Star Trek with a bit of Galaxy Quest to keep you on your toes. If you are wondering what the heck I'm talking about, then you are going to love getting to know the characters in Void Drifter. As an added treat, the audiobook is performed by one on the best, Mark Boyett. This is going to be a great series, and I have already added Void Drifter 2 to my library. -Mr.Bill

A great new concept!

I came for Mark Boyette. I stayed for the great story and characters! I am going to stay with this new series.

amazing

The book overall is amazing. it keeps you hooked from the moment you start it to the moment it ends. the narrator does a phenomenal job of getting you into the mindset of each character as well as the voices of each character

Incredible!

I was at the edge of my seat with each void drift! And the only thing better than the writing was the AMAZING voice acting. I cannot believe I stumbled on such a gem!!

Reimagined Farscape

This series feels like a reimagined Farscape. Go A Guy from Earth with unique knowledge about wormholes. Oh sorry, I mean "the void" ends up on a prisonership.

Excellent performance!

Once again, Anspach & Cheney knock it out of the park, again! Mark Boyette performs as he always does - superbly. Void Drifting as an a better alternative to FTL threw me for a minute, but I got used to it. I can’t wait for book 2!

Good job Galaxy building laying out the basis for the rest of the series.

Great book! Strong character building. Overall, engaging from start to finish. A general outline for FTL and the void but. with plenty of mystery left.

Pretty good, awkward romance so far.

Great world building, impressive characters, but the romance was so painful to see it play out like that. Sert is funny at times but the A.I and the pilot are just so annoying. Kinda wondering what book 2 will be like.

Indy Boards the Falcon

If “Indiana Jones boards the millennium falcon” sounds like your jam, you’ll love this book. Once you get past the first third, that is. That part so desperately needed an editor it’s kinda funny. But trust: it’s absolutely worth slogging through, because once it takes off, it takes OFF. Highly recommend.

Good!

I really enjoyed this book! everything from the narrator to the story line and character development.
