47

By: Angela Peach

Narrated by: Megan Green

My name is Lilith Mae Madison and I am captain of the Phoenix. There is something strange happening on my ship, something that cannot be explained.

On the other side of the known universe, we are waiting for a wormhole to open so we can return home with news that could save the human race, but someone, or something, has other ideas. My crew are being picked off one by one, and whoever is responsible is very, very strong, and very, very clever.

I'm struggling to hold onto my sanity while also maintaining control of my ship and crew. My trust is divided between John, my second in command and Maggie, head biogeneticist and my lover. John is impulsive and headstrong, and I am unsure of his full intentions. Maggie, on the other hand, is gentle, kind, loving and sweet, but I know she is withholding information from me...vital information!

With time and crew running dangerously low, I must find the killer before it's too late!

More a love story than a sci-fi adventure

47 is a provocative whodunit which takes place on the spaceship Phoenix, as the crew awaits the opening of a wormhole so they can return to their own solar system. This is more a love story, between Lilith (or Lily) and Maggie with John as a complication, that just happens to take place on a spaceship, than it is an actual sci-fi story. And speaking of complications, there are computer glitches and malfunctions throughout the ship which don't make sense and are hampering their ability to make their "connection". It's quite a wild ride.

That said, there's something desperately wrong with the audio production. It's echoey, like Ms. Green is reading from a dark cavern. It's also staticky, so her Ss are slurred. This was distracting and problematic. For example, it took me a good while to realize the character's name was John, not Tom, because the words were so muffled.

And while we're discussing the audio, in my opinion, the narrator would be much better suited to portray a gossipy character in a chick-lit novel. Her manner and accent are much too casual to play a military commander of a spaceship, though she did a decent job.

Exquisite!

Bout half way through, I thought I had it figured out, nope! Great shorter story! Loved the narration!

A real sci fi treat.

The only problem I had with this book, it left me wanting more. What a great space travel story. The narration was excellent. This would make an excellent series.

Very interesting

Definitely an interesting take on the end of the world, and survival. Good narration, although it sounds a bit tinny.
