Awesome

Another brilliant story narrated by the best in the business. this has to be one of the best series I have ever listened to. Mr Bray brings the characters alive. For me, he is the best narrator to which all other narrators are judged against.

Love this series. I wait for Skippy and Bishop and the Space Monkeys 😂🤪 new books with such excitement. I will be devestated when the series is finished.

Trust the awesomeness!!

Excellent series for any SciFi nerd. So sad it is over but got great enjoyment from it. Great story and excellent narration. Loved the bloopers at the end.

Don’t be done!!

Once again the series has kept me entranced to the point of missing my next stop, I can’t help but feel sad that this series may come to a close but there’s sooo much more to explore at the moment and I can’t wait for the next instalment of galactic dumassery

Loved it all

This story line is fantastic it suits my non scientific brain. I enjoyed the continuation of getting to know and explore space through the characters.

R.C. Bray brings this amazing story to life

Another awesome story. I couldn't put it down. The pace was perfect.
Can't wait to see where the story is headed next.
BTW... Chapter 28. 8:35..."Elbow"...Lol....
That one slipped through the bloopers reel.

If ever there is a TV series and R.C. Bray is not cast to voice Skippy, I will be immensely disappointed.

Maybe the peak of the series?

A lot of fun, a bit of filler but still lots of action. I think the author seems to have gained in confidence and is certainly very comfortable with the work at this stage.
