About this listen

Yanked from cryo to join a crew of modded humans in deep space? Daisy's life just got a whole lot more complicated.

As if nearly burning up in a freak accident on her way to Earth wasn't bad enough, Daisy had a whole mess of other trouble on her plate. Big trouble. And she was going to get to the bottom of it if it was the last thing she'd do, which it was starting to look like it very well might be.

The thing is, Daisy had a simple rule for space travel. Don't blow up, and so far she'd been managing to abide by that, but mere survival wasn't enough.

With the powerful AI supercomputer guiding the craft beginning to show some disconcerting quirks of its own, and its unsettling cyborg assistant nosing into her affairs, Daisy's unease was rapidly growing, as was her bigotry toward artificially intelligent beings. Add to the mix a crew of mechanically enhanced humans, any one of whom she suspected might not be what they seemed, and Daisy found herself with a sense of pending dread tickling the periphery of her mind.

Something was very much not right, she could feel it in her bones. The tricky part now was going to be overcoming her biases and figuring out what the threat was, before it could manifest from a mere sinking feeling in her gut into a potentially deadly reality. Only things were quite different and much worse than she could ever have imagined, forcing her to repeatedly adjust and overcome a reality that turned out to be far from what it had originally seemed. And it was looking like Daisy wouldn't have to save only herself, but the entire planet Earth in the process.

The complete series set of all five of the Clockwork Chimera books:

  1. Daisy's Run
  2. Pushing Daisy
  3. Daisy's Gambit
  4. Chasing Daisy
  5. Daisy's War

It started out a bit slow then it got a lot better. Thank you very much.

Pretty good

Book one reads like an inexperienced author. For example, it is supposed to take place in the far future, but contains plenty of modern expression that were not used 5 decades ago, and probably won't be in use 5 decades from now. It just seems out if place for the mood the author wants to build.

Also, the author used a few devices to create tension that just don't work the way he hoped. The bigotry mentioned in other reviews is a device used to separate the main character from the others. However, a technician with an aversion to technology (the bigotry mentioned) seems very hard to believe for anyone who knows techs in real life.

Second, the maggufin in the first book: the MC is convinced the crew is involved in a conspiracy and begins to act against them. Several times, they are in contact, and the crew says, "just surrender and let us explain everything." Never do they try to explain when they gain contact. They just beg her to listen later. It doesn't make any sense.

Posted reviews improve for the later books, so I will stick to it a while longer.

Outstanding storyline start off a little slow, but once you make it pass first few chapters it’ll keep you on the edge of your seat. Can’t wait to read her next.

A lot of twist’s and turns , but not to fast or hard to follow. Great listen for commuting to work.

Happy Space odyssey

Want humor and action while not introducing anything particularly scientific in your scifi? Totally enjoyable story and not too predictable. Much foreshadowing and the bits that seem particularly heavy handed foreshadowing really throw you off the scent.

It was odd a military scifi without dwelling on weapons or tactics or technology. Most scifi has a lot of this is a new concept so I will explain it, this book used very common concepts in a completely original story. It was scifi with the explanation of a fantasy novel.

Whimsically enjoyable approach to scifi

This series brings about an incredible precursor to an amazing series that blends sci-fi and magical fantasy!

Amazing prelude

This book was boring and predictable. Took for ever to get interesting. I was just about to cut my losses and do a different book. The narrator did a decent job. This might be for some but not me. I paid a cheap price for the 5 book set.

Meh....if you get it cheap

the ties to familiar movie and other stories was very cool. This was a good listen while working.

while the story was a bit predictable, it was entertaining and a fun ride.

I dont think the author has ever interacted with another human, its just so bad. Overuse of the words clever, genius, inspired, and murphy. I do not recommend this book to anyone. I would have gotten a refund but it was on sale so I couldnt. I regret getting this...

Dialogue is horrible
