About this listen
From TheReadingCafe.com: "the characters are diverse, distinctive and unconventional but such are the personalities of every entertaining story of science fiction. CORVUS ASCENDING begins slowly but accelerates at 'warp speed'."
Wisecracking star-sailor Gus Johansson’s beach bum retirement suddenly goes from boring to blazing when he pulls a 1400-year-old robot and a sentient spaceship from the sea. Soon, Gus and his crew of misfits are in the fight of their lives against an old enemy. The vengeful Captain Harrison “Hazy” Grey is convinced he can finally get his Admiral’s flag by capturing that ship; and he doesn’t care who he has to kill to do it.

He has an ancient assault carrier headed for Kragus; and Corvus is the only thing standing in its way. Can the crew pull off an against-all-odds rescue, stop a war, and escape destruction?

"It started out with a bang and just got better." -Goodreads reviewer Over 1,000 pages of nonstop action! If there's one thing Adam Eckhart knows, it's that humans are trouble. After all, he is one. As captain of the Marathon, a cobbled-together ship crewed by aliens and androids scraping by on odd jobs at the outskirts of settled space, Adam has plenty to worry about without adding his own species to the mix. But when a pair of mortally wounded humans cross his path during a heist gone wrong, he finds himself compelled to save them. Big mistake. Because if there's one more thing Adam knows...

Tanis is looking forward to a long journey in stasis before arriving at the newly terraformed world of New Eden. New Life. New Start. Getting a berth on the Intrepid is her ticket out of the Sol System. But nothing proves easy for Major Tanis Richards. Nothing is at it seems. What should be a simple trip is fraught with danger and filled with adventure. An array of forces seek to stop the Intrepid - no matter the cost, or lives lost. From competing corporations, to stellar eco-terrorists, no one wants the Intrepid to arrive at New Eden.

The virtual voice was
The virtual voice was not pleasant to listen to for a long session. At time I got lost on what side of narrative I was tracking. The story got muddy because if the loss of inflection.

Good book, below par automated narration
The book is really good, but the automatic narration still wrestles with some serious authenticity issues: Emphasis on certain syllables and words in certain situations, especially when people are under stress, is just not there. This makes the narration really flat and so annoying in the long run I had to stop listening even though i liked the book.

Hard to follow with the AI narration.
The story was not bad. kind of seemed like a first attempt to write a story. Probably be better narrated by a person and not an AI. it was a free book so that made it a really good book.
