About this listen

A Closed and Common Orbit: Booktrack Edition adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience!

Lovelace was once merely a ship's artificial intelligence. When she wakes up in an new body, following a total system shutdown and reboot, she has to start over in a synthetic body, in a world where her kind are illegal. She's never felt so alone.

But she's not alone, not really. Pepper, one of the engineers who risked life and limb to reinstall Lovelace, is determined to help her adjust to her new world. Because Pepper knows a thing or two about starting over.

Together, Pepper and Lovey will discover that, huge as the galaxy may be, it's anything but empty.

Booktrack is an immersive format that pairs traditional audiobook narration to complementary music. The tempo and rhythm of the score are in perfect harmony with the action and characters throughout the audiobook. Gently playing in the background, the music never overpowers or distracts from the narration, so listeners can enjoy every minute. When you purchase this Booktrack edition, you receive the exact narration as the traditional audiobook available, with the addition of music throughout.

I love this book and the characters. A fascinating world to step into. Contains great allegories to inter-human conflicts and cultural awareness.

The sound cast adds to the atmosphere. Does not overwhelm.

Can definitely recommend.

And on another positive note compared to the first book, the narrator has learnt that they are artificial gravity nets rather than antigravity nets (by the end at least)

A fascinating trip to another world

Booktrack worth it

The story is incredible and detailed. The author deftly weaving two characters' arcs into a breathtaking odyssey of self discovery at different life stages and with different struggles to deal with. Gorgeous prose and the reader does a fantastic job of bringing all the different voices out and ensured each felt authentic and different.

Emotional Sci Fi
