Publisher's Summary

A brilliant scientist uncovers a terrifying plot to begin a galactic war. Aided by a talented, but reluctant and embittered combateer, he must stop the deployment of a super weapon he invented. A weapon so powerful it threatens to destroy entire worlds.

Status Quo is the first book in a four part space-opera series called the Elect Saga. It is set in a distant part of the galaxy filled with pirates, bounty hunters, traders, explorers, and strange aliens. The stories are inspired by the space-trading and combat simulation games of the 1980s and 1990s.

Dawn Rite Publishing is an independent UK press, founded in 2011. We deal exclusively with fictional works in the SF and Fantasy genres.

Nice balance of speech and effects

I enjoyed reading this again while listening on the Kindle app on Android. (sadly not able to use my Kindle to do that in Australia). I like that two voices were used to make the recording and that there are some sound effects but not too much. It's a nice balance for me and keeps my imagination active. For some reason there are pauses in the audio that feel too long. Additionally, there seems to be some missing dialogue. For example in Ch6 at 32:48 the audio says "... she whimpered. " But the text has some dialogue before that which isn't in the audio. Having said that, I think it is worth getting and am happy with my purchase.
