Publisher's summary

JOIN THE CORPS AND EXPLORE NEW PLANETS. EXPERIENCE ADVENTURE IN FARAWAY LANDS

The Corps of Discovery goes where most men fear to tread - unexplored alternate Earths!

Bill Clark thought he had joined the Corps to explore new planets, only to find out there was a lot more to it than that. His new home is far freer than the one he left, but also more dangerous.

Bill begins to wonder if he'll be able to survive on these new worlds. It’s not just the Pleistocene predators he has to avoid, but somebody is actively trying to kill him and the woman he loves.

Is his life really worth joining the Corps?

Join Bill in this cross-time adventure as he finds out that adventure generally means someone else in danger in a faraway land, and he's on the adventure of his life.

A great read for lovers of action and adventure.

novel storytelling, worth it!

I listen to books each day. This was novel and enjoyed it, grateful there was a sequel! Narration was fine, surprised it wasn't as bad as I feared. have had humans make more mistakes. Would highly recommend

Sounds so real.

Story content, Woodlore, and xenobiology was well thought out. Narration is supposed to be Virtual Voice. I could not tell it different from a person. Hope it does not ruin their jobs.

Decent

The story is okay, occassionally a little heavy on the technical specs, but not bad. the AI narration isn't great, though I've definitely heard narrators I like a LOT LESS. I'm glad it was included with membership, because I'd be much more unhappy if I'd had to pay for this one

I enjoyed the book.

Enjoyed the book and look forward to other books in this series. Just wish they would use a real person instead of ai to read it.

DEAR GOD

I want all those hours of my life back. Sure interesting-ish story and the best virtual voice, but there is ZERO PLOT. This is less a novel than a PARTIAL diary of the protagonist.
There isn’t even an ending!

Bad voice-over

The story isn’t awful, but the animated voice is annoying and just doesn’t flow. Trying to find this book with a real narrator.

I love science fiction, space, and fantasy

I don't understand why so many fictional genre writers feel the need to push socialism and degrade traditional values. it's so prevalent in these genres that it makes me feel dissuaded from listening any more. Are these authors paid to push the agenda? these are learned people who've had access to history and what this ideologies propagate. do they want a dystopia for our future. they don't like violence but their only sellable content is inherently violent. can someone explain it to me? please!
