The narrator was mostly quite good, but overdid it a few times.

Like wow.
First, the narrator was incredible. It's always a hit or miss with many for audio books but Stephanie Willis was amazing.
I've known about Axiom for a whole since I do follow Lindsay Ellis, but I've always felt very indifferent to YouTuber authors, no matter how much I like their content. But since I've been reading again I thought I'd give it a go. Really I only read this because there were no holds on it 🤣
I was surprised by how tense it was, I loved the twists. Did I roll my eyes at some of the alien relationship? Yes. Did I still love it? Also yes.
It's currently almost 5am here, and I couldn't stop listening.

Aliens are weird, and fights lead to a lot of injuries and bloodbeccaand's review against another edition

The books also had some weird info dumping parts where a character would repeat something that happened in the previous couple of chapters in very stilted dialogue. This didn't happen that often, but it was enough that I noticed it.
Otherwise it's very readable and picks up in the second half, but not enough for me to continue with the series.

Most of the book is fine but there are some scenes towards that are violent. Some people die and the main character experiences a violent attack
