A review by vittorioseg
Destruction by Raymond L. Weil

1.0

Okay, my problem was not the book itself.

It was the audiobook.

It was horrible. I mean, David Rheinstrom is the worst narrator I had ever heard. There were no change in tone, accent, voice, tempo, anything. He was literally reading it with an almost manic speed, as if he wanted to finish the assignment as fast as he could. It sounded the same if the person was a man, a woman, a child or the narrator.

After hearing Simon Vance, Kate Reading, Michael Kramer, Jonathan Cecil; this was honestly pure garbage.

Okay, after this: what do I think about the book?

Honestly, it was kind of meh. Nothing to call home about it. The same thematic of human vs aliens, the same pages of technobabble and infodump and a little of interest when they go out of the empire, but nothing that I could say stayed with me.

Maybe if it wasn't such a bad audiobook, it would have been enjoyable, but it was a chore. A simple chore.
