Skye Byrn

By: Drew Avera

Narrated by: Rebecca Cosme

Revenge is a dish best served with two smoking barrels.

Doing a favor for her mentor Sammy P., Skye Byrn runs in one of the usual suspects on Ter, a small time Crunkhead named Trudy, another one of Sammy’s works in progress. Then a crime lord’s bomb rocks the station and Skye’s world will never be whole again.

Determined to find the bomber and put an end to their takeover attempt - and their existence, Skye enlists an unlikely ally, Trudy. As the station descends into madness, she finds herself in the fight of her life. If she fails to stop the takeover, she’ll be just another victim in their growing body count.

Skye brings the heat and there’s no price she won’t pay for vengeance.

narration gave me an interesting perspective

I read a lot of action, kick-ass kind of books (Ryan, Rapp, Reacher, etc). I expected Skye Byrn to be in that same mold based on the reviews and descriptions, but female. I was pleasantly surprised by the different perspective I got from listening to the narration by Cosme. The story is about a bounty hunter, Skye, who loses her friends to an attack by gangsters, and is out for revenge. A familiar main plot, with a lot of kicking butt and the usual, but with some interesting diversions and characters. I expected a kick-ass, hard-nosed protagonist, but the voicing by Rebecca Cosme made me feel like she was not really the hard person I expected, but was a softer, more gentle person that was driven to act the way she did out of anger and emotions. I don't know if I would have gotten that much of an impression by just reading the book. Rebecca did a great job with the voicing for multiple characters, and made it easier to follow the action. I enjoyed the book, and would like to see where it goes from here.

A Simple Job

I found this book to be entertaining. Skye was a bounty hunter who was asked to pick up Trudy, only things didn't go the way she was expecting. I liked the unique characters of Skye and Trudy. I enjoyed the twists and turns that made this story seem like a roller-coaster with all the events that happened. I liked the Sci-Fi elements that made up the tale. Rebecca Cosme's narration was fine. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

easy read

I was given this book in return for a review.
A gritty fast paced fururistic story, raw flawed characters. An enjoyable, short and easy to listen to tale.
Great narrator with animated vocals and a good range voices.

A white hot ride

Received as an audio review copy from Story Origin, this is an honest review. Beautifully narrated by Rebecca Cosme, Skye Byrn turned out to be this wild, roller coaster of a space opera adventure. Skye's world aboard station called Ter has always been dangerous; and being a part of a crew of bounty hunters means missions against of the crazy people within the darker parts of Ter. But when a deadly organization shatters the lives that Skye cared for the most... revenge burns deep to break them as the group's broke her. Together with witty alliance of Trudy, Skye embarks upon a road of justice for her colleagues and for those that are exploited by those bastards.

Highly recommended.

Audio version of Skye Bryn

I struggled with listening to this book compared to reading. interrupted too easily. not used to audiobook said I guess. I enjoyed the reading, just could not put together reasons for different things happening in the story. was difficult to understand the underlying storyline, plot, subplots and resolvemeant. I believe if I had read the book this would not have been an issue.
