Publisher's summary
A hero without peer or scruples, Sam Gunn has a nose for trouble, money, and women, though not necessarily in that order. A man with the ego (and stature) of a Napoleon, the business acumen of a P. T. Barnum, and the raging hormones of a teenage boy, Sam is the finest astronaut NASA ever trained and dumped. But more than money, more than women, Sam Gunn loves justice—and he really does love money and women.
Whether he’s suing the Pope, helping twin sisters entangled in the virtual sex trade, or on trial for his life on charges of interplanetary genocide, you can be sure of one thing: this is one space jockey who’ll meet every challenge with a smile on his lips, an ace up his sleeve, and a weapon in his pocket.
Now, for the first time in one volume, Hugo-winner Ben Bova presents all the tales of Sam Gunn to date, including three never-before collected in book form. Here is the entire chronicle of Sam Gunn, trailblazer and scoundrel, as he scams his way from one end of the solar system to the other, giving bold new meaning to the term venture capitalist.

Stoner knew. The fiery object hurtling toward the Earth was an alien spacecraft. But the world might never know. He was trapped in an iron cordon of secrecy, for the discovery had shattered the world power balance, setting off a brutal struggle for supremacy that raged from the sacred halls of the Vatican to the corridors of the Kremlin and the Pentagon. The forces of fear and treachery would use any weapon at their command, from mind war to sabotage, to keep the world in darkness.

One ad in particular leapt out at him: "Are you a coward? This is not for you. We badly need a brave man. He must be 23 to 25 years old, in perfect health, at least six feet tall, weigh about 190 pounds, fluent English with some French, proficient with all weapons, some knowledge of engineering and mathematics essential...."

After the fall of the American Ayatollahs as foretold in Stranger in a Strange Land and chronicled in Revolt in 2100, the United States of America at last fulfills the promise inherent in its first Revolution: for the first time in human history there is a nation with Liberty and Justice for All. No one may seize or harm the person or property of another, or invade his privacy, or force him to do his bidding. Americans are fiercely proud of their re-won liberties and the blood it cost them; nothing could make them forswear those truths they hold self-evident. Nothing except the promise of immortality…

Critic reviews
“Bova has ambitiously and deftly created a three-in-one narrative that satisfies any and all readerly desires to see the life of his signature rogue assembled into coherent form…. Bova has successfully added to the storehouse of a particularly American folklore. Sam Gunn is Mike Fink and Paul Bunyan (although their opposite in size), Rockefeller and Carnegie, Sam Slick and Penrod, the plucky protagonists from Horatio Alger and the irreverent ones from Mark Twain. His exploits… are new manifestations of an eternal archetype in the American psyche." (SciFi Weekly)

Story
They first appear as a series of dots on astronomical plates, heading from Saturn directly toward Earth. Since the ringed planet carries no life, scientists deduce the mysterious ship to be a visitor from another star. The world's frantic efforts to signal the aliens go unanswered. The first contact is hostile: the invaders blast a Soviet space station, seize the survivors, and then destroy every dam and installation on Earth with a hail of asteriods.

Story
Geoff and his friends live in Phocaea, a distant asteroid colony on the Solar System's frontier. They're your basic high-spirited young adults, enjoying such pastimes as hacking matter compilers to produce dancing skeletons that prance through the low-gee communal areas, using their rocket-bikes to salvage methane ice shrapnel that flies away when the colony brings in a big (and vital) rock of the stuff, and figuring out how to avoid the ubiquitous surveillance motes.

Story
Six-time Hugo Award winner Bova likes to tell big stories in a small way. This approach both helps and hurts in this collection of stories, excerpts and outtakes from his "Grand Tour" novels (Saturn, etc.), which explore the colonization of the solar system. Despite his vast subject, Bova focuses tightly on the heroes and villains whose striving makes up his future history. While some characters are standards of the SF genre (megalomaniac capitalist, lone-wolf entrepreneur, love object caught between them), Bova imbues each with Homeric virtues and flaws.

Kim is not your average member of Her Majesty's palace staff – but then he shouldn't be on the staff at all. He's in fact a Sun staff reporter who's wormed his way into Buckingham Palace to pick up every bit of dirt and gossip that he can lay his hands on. Along the way, Kim is faced with many surprising aspects of Palace life that even he didn't see coming. Based on the true story of the tabloid hack who became a Queen's footman, Palace Rogue is a charming, uplifting and utterly outrageous story of love and secrets – all of it set in the heart of one of the world's most famous houses.

Sam Gunn - a Legend in his own mind
Thoroughly enjoyed this collection of short stories depicting various timelines in the life of Sam Gunn. I really enjoy the way Bova details the characters to the point where one really feels like they know them. I found that the narration by the ensemble cast was very good. They provided the variety in the storytelling that the story needed. I highly recommend giving this a read/listen. Very entertaining!

did not think I would like it but, after the first story I was hooked and found it hard to stop listening once I started. simple plot a rogue that entertained you with his hijinks and his flamboyant style. a little dated but you overlook that and you are caught up in the story.

One of the best produced audio books I've ever heard
The book was quite long, but I could not stop listening.
The character buildup and view from so many different prospectives was fascinating.
I highly recommend this book.

Loved this story and as always Blackstone Audio knocks it out of the park. I think they could do an audio book of a telephone directory and still keep us enthralled.
I only wish there was another 30 hours to enjoy. Sam Gunn is my newest hero and I plan on revisiting this story often.

Lovable business-minded space scoundrel!
Where does The Sam Gunn Omnibus rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This is one of the most fun audiobooks I have listened to in recent memory. Sam Gunn is one of those characters that you like even when he's being a complete jerk, and that you find yourself rooting for even when he appears to be acting monstrously.
What other book might you compare The Sam Gunn Omnibus to and why?
While it is not an exact comparison, I did find myself thinking of Catch-22 by Joseph Heller while listening to this book. Sam has Milo Minderbender's business acumen and Yossarian's sex drive. While not quite as absurd, there are definitely moments where the same irony shines through, almost like a French farce.
What about the narrators’s performance did you like?
Multi-narrator books can be dicey, but I think they all worked well. Each account of the escapades of Sam Gunn felt very personal, and they felt more like interviews as a result.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
If you're asking whether or not the book was engaging, then yes, extremely so. But I like sleep, so one sitting would probably have been pretty draining.

Emily Janice Card's Narration = Icepicks in Ears
I had to return this. While I recognize some of my favorite narrators in the list, the first several hours are narrated by a name I didn't recognize: Emily Janice Card, who, it turns out, is Orson Scott Card's daughter. Despite being a grown woman, she has the trendy accent of a millennial teenager: creaky voice, clipped endings of words ending in hard consonants, sssssibilant S's, tortured vowels: "French" is "Franch". "Troubled" is "Trobbled". "Lust" is "Lost". She reads the opening story; after 5 minutes of torture, I decided to skip it and move on to the next. Her again Skip. Again. Again. Again. Now I'm three hours into the narrative and it's still her. I give up.
