About this listen
From critically acclaimed New York Times best-selling author Peter F. Hamilton comes The Captain's Daughter, Book 2 in his audio original Arkship trilogy.
With the help of a command AI, the hole in the Daedalus has been fixed by Hazel and her friends. But in the process, they have antagonized the Yi, the aliens who are actually controlling the Daedalus. After a daring escape from the Yi, Hazel and her friends now must convince the people of the Daedalus villages and the village leaders that the Yi exist - and that they must fight back in order to survive. This proves tricky, as those in power don't want their authority challenged.
In order to produce proof of their dire situation, Hazel and her friends have to return to the forward section of the Daedalus to find another surviving command AI so they can find where the Yi are hiding and what their goal is. What Hazel and her friends discover is the terrible secret of the Yi, and what they have been doing on board the Daedalus for the last five hundred years.
The Captain's Daughter is a thrilling continuation of the story that unfolded in A Hole in the Sky, Peter F. Hamilton's first YA novel, that will appeal to all his legions of fans.

Target audience
Only my absolute admiration of Peter Hamilton kept me going.
There should be a warning that the target age for this novel is VERY young ‘teens.

Not up to PFH's usual standard
The story is a good idea, but I'm not sure if it's the narrator or the script, but the constant references by the protagonist regarding how scared she is, would never have done that a week ago, dreads confrontation, is worried about this, that, etc starts to make it sound like a Mills & Boone sentimental novel.
Elizabeth Klett has a good reading voice, but the upperclass British accent she gives several characters feels inappropriate when giving voice to people living as simple farmers with no technology for 500 years.
I'll still continue the series, but would prefer more drama and less melodrama.

this is not the famous 5
What were you thinking Mr Hamilton?
Please publish this in written form so I can return to enjoying your literary brilliance. I have read everything you have written with incredible joy and respect.
Elizabeth Klet is disastrous as a narrator. Her complete lack of empathy for the characters you crafted is worse than being eaten by a Yi. She butchers emotions, trivialises death, and has no grasp of emotional maturity. She should confine herself to childrens and teen fiction. I actually feel she would have butchered Enid Blyton.
This was my first audiobook purely because you were contractually bound to this disgraceful publisher. I was unable to buy this book in any other form. Please 🙏 do not surrender your talent to such drivel. As a result, I will never purchase another audio book. My impatience to experience your writing has turned out horribly.
