Hopefully you’ve read/listened to Starship Sakira, but you can start Delphi City, the second book in the exciting new adventure series Delphi in Space.
The McCormacks have a starship, and now, they need a safe place to start harvesting the technology. They’re starting with a place in the Cook Islands, but to succeed, they have to avoid spies, figure out how to manufacture the new technology using Earth-based tools, and then introduce it without getting into too much trouble with the governments and big corporations of Earth.
Come listen along as they build their team from the initial five to enough to run and protect a city. They’re preparing to take the human race into space, but will they succeed before someone manages to take over their spaceship and technology? And can they finish before the Paraxeans come looking for their spaceship?

GREAT

Note to the narrator - CCs when applied to engine sizes is pronounced sea-seas as it’s the plural of cubic centimeter. 1,000 - 2,000 CCs is one thousand to two thousand sea-seas — not one thousand to two thousand sea-sea-ess. Just saying. :-)
Storyline continues nicely.

The only truly bad thing in the overall story line is the 13-year-old using drugs regularly and with supervision, while contrastingly supposed smart and talent professionally as if she were 25. This is outrageously stupid.
All-around good, except child drug use

The characters are decently fleshed out and consistent, though not particularly varied. Most importantly, they are *intelligent*.. or at least significantly moreso than in most books/series. They make realistic (if sometimes a bit "silly"- remember, YA audience), well thought out plans, *then follow them*.
There are no real specific protagonists, and any that pop up are unrealistically ineffective and/or easily thwarted. The general overhanging threat- global governments- are unrealistically disinterested and reactionless. World powers don't get [stuff done to their stuff] and just shrug and go home, sorry.
Ultimately, there is such minimal conflict that the realism issues aren't overly important/noticeable. It's about people rapidly ramping up human technology and capability to make us a spacefaring species with some alien examples/assistance, not a "crap, aliens! shoot em!" book. So long as you're good with that.. and don't easily get the craving to strangle teenage girls due to their antics.. you'll like it.
On the narrator- based on her performance in book 1, this book, and the first few minutes of book 3, she's a noob who is getting better as she goes. You can kinda see(hear) it happening, lol. More power to her, but this does mean she's definitely not top grade.
On several of the reviews talking about the girl/MC being annoying- she's a 13 yr old. In my experience and memories, most are, regardless of gender. Go realism?
Narrator is getting better, still needs practice
