About this listen

Zara Maples wants to escape her lackluster life and find her soulmate, so she applies to the interstellar Narovian Matchmaking Service which finds people’s soulmates based on genetics. Korjh a Narovian cyborg retired from battle, once a full human, longs a family of his own like the one he lost as a boy in an alien invasion. Retired to a backwater colony of Modonne where he can’t get a date because he is cyborg, he applies to the Matchmaking service to find his genetic complement, his soulmate, because unlike Narovian felines he cannot recognize his fated mate. After two years they find him a mate on that “dirt” planet recently that recently joined the Alliance. Cyborgs are dangerous, aren’t they? Only an ignorant human from a planet called Earth (translated as dirt) would come across two sectors to Modonne to mate with a cyborg. But to her he seems warm and caring and so attractive as they correspond. Of course, it can’t be quite that easy. While Korjh can be sweet and considerate, he can also be scary and aggressive. Was he the man of her dreams or nightmares? Multicultural Science Fiction

Totally disliked virtual voice. Very monotone and robotic. There was no emotion, feelings. I won’t listen to anymore audiobooks narrated with virtual voice.

Virtual voice narration is very disappointing

It’s a short story so there wasn’t a ton of backstory or depth but I wasn’t expecting it given the length. The narration was better than I thought it would be. There were some mispronunciations, but not too many. It also lacked inflections but that’s to be expected with virtual narration. Usually I stick to dual narration but decided to roll the dice. All in all I liked it, and will likely listen to more books by this author even with the virtual narration.

Good short story

The beginning was cute. There was some mild playing in the bedroom. Mispronounced words. A rape attempt: never entertaining!

I don’t like virtual voice but wanted to hear the story. This was the worst one , no emotion and voice went in and out so made it heard to hear words

I’ve heard MUCH better virtual voice narration - this was SO adolescent! Mispronunciations, emotionless. The story was pointless, characters lacked dimensions, the whole thing lacked anything approaching maturity. The author needs to grow up and get some pointers from reading C.S. Smith or Ruby Dixon or Honey Phillips. Or maybe just stick to children’s stories.

Narration was awful, story was adolescent
