About this listen

Endeavor

Since we first looked at the stars, there has been a silence, no signs of alien life, and no one who has tried to speak to us. It is an enigma that a long-dead scientist called the Fermi Paradox.

"Where are they?" A brave crew will take humanity's first starship, Endeavour, on an epic journey that spans light years and centuries to solve this mystery. As Commander Tom Hites and his crew searches amid long-abandoned worlds and ancient relics, the question they seek to answer becomes: "Where are they now?"

Erebus

The sparsely populated moon Io is destroyed in a terrorist attack. Hundreds are dead in the cataclysmic explosion. Thousands become refugees as the shattered remnants of the moon threaten the Jupiter Alliance. Billions throughout the solar system are wondering, "Where next?"

Those responsible must be found and brought to justice. The explorer ship Erebus is reassigned from its mission and sent to Jupiter to investigate this atrocity with Trent's international team onboard. And what Trent discovers among the relics of the alien Sleeping Gods will change humanity's place in the universe forever.

First book was actually good. Not bogged down by irrelevant details but moved forward in an interesting and clever way. Narrator good despite Oscar award worthy terrible foreign accents. so bad you grow to like them.

Second book different narrator, different person, first person and not third person like in the first. Boring unoriginal detail driven plot.

Haven't got to third yet. Restarted second book three times and still see no connection and not absorbed in anyway.So far it is just the sort of rubbish I avoid. Oh yes, narrator horrible...

Good start, unfortunately goes to ****

Book one was really good, great narration, storyline and style of writing, I wanted it to be longer and it was really well executed (3rd POV) 5 stars

Book two was awful. Switched from 3rd person to 1st, the narrator is easily one of the worst I've ever heard, it make it un-listenable, also it turns into some weird internal military story (I assume, as I didn't get past 1 hour) so I skipped it. 0 Stars

Book three was okay, pretty good. Military-ish, but back to 3rd POV (personally prefer.) It was also performed by one of my favourite (awesome) narrators. 3.5 Stars.

All good for a freebie.

Book 1 was great, 2 is awful. 3 is okay.

it took quite a while to get upto speed and i was unsure what it was even about at the start

the story was well written

Story good interesting read however the performance is diabolical. His overall voice is fine and works but whenever tries to do any accent it is dreadful. I thought the Scottish accent was bad enough but the Yorkshire accent is horrendous. This guy has clearly never been to UK.
For a book with so many British accents someone else should be reading this out loud.
I have almost given up listening several times because of the accents
Trust me they are hideous and very off putting!

Good story appalling performance
