Acerca de esta escucha

Colonial Union Ambassador Ode Abumwe and her team are used to life on the lower end of the diplomatic ladder. But when a high-profile diplomat goes missing, Abumwe and her team are last-minute replacements on a mission critical to the Colonial Union’s future. As the team works to pull off their task, CDF Lieutenant Harry Wilson discovers there’s more to the story of the missing diplomats than anyone expected... a secret that could spell war for humanity.

The B-Team is a tale from John Scalzi's The Human Division, a series of self-contained but interrelated short stories set in the Old Man's War universe.

I would highly recommend this small novella to all science fiction lovers as one of the better short space odysseys a available for purchase. The narration by William Drufus stood out especially, bringing the diverse set of characters to life and imbuing each with their own unique speech and personality. The story itself may leave minimal pieces hanging -the only downside-, but it immerses the listener throughout the story from beginning to end at an exciting pace while using the perspectives of each relatable character to propel the plot forward. I found my experience enjoyable and I highly recommend the story, the author, and especially the engaging narrator for anyone who may be interested in enjoying a solid thrilling science fiction novella.

Terrific narration brings short story to life!

an amazing addition to the old man War series Universe of sci-fi writing. if you like sci-fi and have only read old man's War definitely pick up this Splinter story in the same universe with the same characters that you meet in the old man's War series some of the best science fiction writing ever in The History of Science Fiction. if you like science fiction I will bet that you will love this series.

Must read scifi

I'm going to review the entire series here, not just this one "book". Look carefully; most of them are only half an hour long.

They aren't structured so much as chapters of a book, but as semi-independent short stories, some of which use recurring characters, and that occur in more or less chronological order. Scalzi clearly wanted to experiment with different kinsd of stories and narrative structure. One is told in a really annoying transcript format. Some tell stories from characters other than the main group. There are few strong links or building plot structures across the stories. It does build to some excitement in the last one, but there is no real resolution or ending - Scalzi could easily add a new episode tomorrow if he wanted.

This would be an AMAZING podcast, but as a series of independent books, I'm dubious. There is no reason why they shouldn't be pulled together into one book representing a collection of the short stories. That would be a decent length, and worth the price.

I did enjoy the series overall, but just make sure you know what you're getting into. I didn't pay close attention and had simply assumed I was getting a large collection of full Scalzi novels.

Decent series, but overpriced

Grabbed my interest from the start. Found it to be very interesting, Sci-Fi at its best. Filled with twists, turns, and plenty of thrills. A typical John Scalzi book! However, like many novellas, I would have liked it very much if it had been longer. An EXCELLENT Resd! -R.Wood

THE B TEAM, By John Scalzi

John Scalzi does it again with the Humane Division putting us back into the universe of The Old Man's War with a cast of characters that we can emphasize with and root for. Total Sci fi bliss.

Sci fi at its best

…but I can’t get past the narration. It almost sounds like the “Evans said” or “Baer said” or “whoever said” snippets were edited in; they stand out so. Very choppy.
I’ve heard this in other Scalzi audiobooks so it may just be the writing. Can’t continue listening.

I think it might be a good story…..

Where does The B-Team rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

The series started off well enough, but I grew tired of waiting for more episodes to come out. The piecemeal release of each episode is how tv networks operate, I don't want the same thing in my books.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The B-Team?

The first book in the series.

What does William Dufris bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Great narration.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

My extreme reaction caused me to preorder the whole series.

Any additional comments?

After the ninth episode, I canceled the rest. I decided not to put up with having to wait. If a full book is published, I'll be one of the first to order it.

Grew tired of waiting for more chapters

Short but very entertaining sci-fi. Not a complicated performance, but it was well done.

This is my second Scalzi book (the first was a much longer Fuzzy Nation). He writes with constant "he said" "she said" at the end of sentences which gets annoying, but his stories are good enough that you still enjoy them.

I plan to listen to all the books in his Human Division series.

Great Short Story (and for 51 cents!)
