Story
James Crowley met his mortal end in a hail of gunfire. Now, he finds himself in purgatory, serving the White Throne to avoid falling to hell. Not quite undead, though not alive either, the best he can hope for is to work off his servitude and fade away. His not-so-sacred duty as a Hand of God? Use his new abilities to hunt down demonic beings that have infiltrated the mortal realm. This time, the White Throne has sent him to the middle of nowhere: a Western town called Dead Acre with a saloon, a moldy church, and little else worth talking about. There isn’t even a sheriff.

Story
When Van Tudor returns to his childhood home, he inherits more than the family farm. His grandfather used to tell him fantastic stories of spacemen and monsters, princesses and galactic knights. Little did Van realize, the old man's tales were more than fiction; they were real. Hidden beneath the old barn, Van’s legacy is waiting: a starship, not of this world. With his combat AI, an android bird named Perry, Van takes his first steps into the wider galaxy. He soon finds that space is far busier and more dangerous than he could have ever conceived.

All sleeping peacefully...until people start dying in cryo. Malfunction or murder? Hopefully, the former - a serial killer in the fleet would be drastic for morale.

Knowledge comes at a cost, one that Binti is willing to pay, but her journey will not be easy. The world she seeks to enter has long warred with the Meduse, an alien race that has become the stuff of nightmares.

Publisher's summary
After 25 years serving as the human Monitor of the Interstellar Ark, Hermes, Orion is scheduled to be placed back into hibernation with the other crewmembers.
Knowing he'll die there and be replaced before the ship's voyage is over, he decides that he won’t — can’t — accept that fate.
Whatever it takes, Orion will escape Hermes and see what's beyond, even if it means defying the regulations of his only friend — the ship-wide artificial intelligence known as Dan.
From the Washington Post and number one Audible best-selling duo, Rhett C. Bruno and Jaime Castle, comes a harrowing science fiction short story that will leave you questioning exactly what it means to be alive.

A wicked snowstorm had blown in from the north and the roads were a mess. Recently split from his one-time girlfriend, there was now nothing holding Cameron Decker here in the little backwater mountain town of Larksburg Stand. Time to get back to college, back to Stanford. Seeing a guy knee-deep in slush at the side of the road, he pulled to the curb and waved him over. The guy smacked his head getting in - knocked his watch cap askew. Only then did Cameron notice - noticed that the individual couldn't possibly be human. Cameron decided to help his stranded passenger - a decision he'd soon come to regret. Along with his rust-bucket of a pickup truck, he was soon heading deep into space aboard an interstellar spacecraft. After the vessel crash-landed onto an alien world, he would now have to contend with a murderous droid and a slew of strange alien life forms.

They tried to destroy our planets. Our way of life. They tried to send us into extinction. But we, the Coalition, fought them and won. That was a decade ago. They’re known as the Host: a cabal of aliens seeking to dominate our sector of space. And they’re back - with help from a powerful new enemy. We’re outnumbered and unprepared. But there is hope. An ancient race of long-dead but technologically advanced aliens called the Navigators have a ship called the Blackstar that could potentially turn the tide. That is if I, Kai Locke, a humble ship racer, can find it and learn how to harness its power in time.

Powerful story
For a short story there seems little I can say that wouldn't spoil your enjoyment of discovering Orion and his situation on this generation ship. Bruno and Castle perform their usual magic with characters and crisp writing that makes us feel what's happening and both dreading and hoping for equally possible outcomes. Porter is his usual outstanding self as well, with narration that continues to fit perfectly with my expectations for great scifi audiobooks.

The Riddle of Life
I own and thoroughly enjoyed the early version of The Long Vigil, so couldn't imagine what would be different with this one. But it was like going from condensed to expanded versions - this version has so much more detail, explanations as to how things aboard ship with cryo work, and I really felt like I got to know and empathize with the main character more. Loved this book!

Amazing short story!
This is such a great sci-fi short story! It makes you think and is so beautifully touching. It made me cry in less than an hour. The heartfelt narration is incredibly well done and really makes you empathise with Orion.

Great but too short
Interesting setup and works building. However, this felt like a snippet to a much larger universe. I hope the author continues to develop this plot into something more substantial.

Way way to Short.
This is a great story with only one problem,
it is way to short. Ten minutes in and I was hoping it was a 10 hour book,
there is so much more I was looking forward to.
A perfect beginning for a very long series.
I need more of this.

Powerful
This Long Vigil is a powerful tale about life and death and the human spirit. I was sort of depressing, but the end more than made up for the sad parts. This story makes me appreciate life and want to make the most of every, every minute.

Wow... Just Wow!
Wow! Why is my face wet? Once again my favorite Author duo and Narrator team up to conjure one of the best short stories ever! It's so good and surprisingly it was released on Audible+ so really there's no excuse!
