The Cadet

By: D. Rus

Narrated by: Jef Holbrook

The near future. A UFO appears on Earth's orbit. Ignoring all contact attempts, it showers the planet with priceless artifacts. Choose: perfect health, $10 million, or seven years in prison, per the new amendment.

The night of the meteor shower, Paul and his friends run around the city, engaging in quick fights with citizens gone crazy, trying to obtain one of the artifacts.

But is it really selfless help the mysterious aliens are offering? What awaits a human who holds a precious crystal in his hand? Where will he wake up tomorrow? What if the first thing he sees when he opens his eyes is the blinking line of text "Loading location: virtual training ground Kubinka-Digital. Welcome, cadet! You're now space fighter pilot!"?

Terrible Narration

The narrater makes this unlistenable. He speaks way to fast. Good story but narration makes it unlistenable.

amazing story, horrible narrator

It was difficult to get immersed as the narrator seemed to be rushing through it

Good

I really liked the Play to Live Series. This one however didn't have much in the way of world building.
To really make a transition meaningful you have to contrast each world type. This one seems to rush into the part they wanted to write about without as much character development or meaningful setting description.

ok story

the book was too confusing and fragmented. The solution to all issues seem to be throwing technical jargon.

A slow start considering what I listened to last.

This was a cool book, very interesting and I'm excited to see where it will go to next.
