Saucer: Savage Planet: Saucer, Book 3

Any book done by narrator Dick Hill has to be decent and this one was better because of the narrator.

I had read the other books written years back and was surprised to see this new one on Audible. It is worth the listen though it maybe of help to have followed the characters in the earlier books.

I have several Stephen Coonts books and look forward to more - but with a different reader

NO

The performance got in the way of the story and the readers terrible attempt at voicing elderly characters made me wince.

The performer and/or producer of this third installment has diverged so far from the tone of the second volume that the characters are unrecognizable.

Mr. Hill reads this installment as if we've been dropped into the mob culture of the roaring twenties. Our heroine, an accomplished pilot and confident woman, has been transformed into a sheepish maul. Our hero, a punk. Everyone else a mobster or thug.

I cannot believe this is written by the same person that published the Jake Grafton series. I was very disappointed, the book seemed to be edited without good transitions between paragraphs. One paragraph or "section" had extensive details only to jump to completely different topic in the next paragraph. That's OK for chapters but.....
The book felt more like collection of short stories pieced together around a common theme.

I enjoyed all three books in the series. it would be nice to of had a little more of Rips and Charlie's adventure in space.

aliens among us adventure usual inept evil adversaries an exasperated president heroes from middle America

Well I did like the story. liked charters. This saying words & letters left is crazy.


The narrator was a very good speaker. He was not to good as changing the voices, but got in to it.
I really love these kind of books. Really liked the Author, in all was good.

Well written, very entertaining, great story, looking forward to the next book in the series.

Stephen did it again really enjoyed this book thanks Stephen for your hard work and intelligent story telling can't wait for the next one maybe you and Whitley streiber can team up together

This action-scifi book is a comment on society and heavily laden with tongue-in-cheek. Coonts uses the story to explore consequences of new advanced technology in a society. He does ask the question what would happen to the economy if people could live for a 1000 years? However, the Petty Officer adviser (man on the street) to the POTUS is a bit over the top. Also, I don't believe that he deals with first contact very well--a White House reception? Give me a break. Maybe I missed the humor in that one.:-)
