About this listen

Set in the wake of a galaxywide war and the destruction of a human empire, The Dangerous Type follows the awakening of one of the galaxy's most dangerous assassins and her quest for vengeance.

Entombed for 20 years, Raena has been found and released. Thallian has been on the lam for the last 15 years. He's a wanted war criminal whose entire family has been hunted down and murdered for their role in the galaxywide genocide of the Templars. His name is the first on Raena's list, as he's the one who enslaved her, made her his assassin, and ultimately put her in a tomb. But Thallian is willing to risk everything - including his army of cloned sons - to capture her. Now it's a race to see who kills whom first.

Alternatively, Gavin has spent the last 20 years trying to forget about Raena, whom he once saved and then lost to Thallian. Raena's adopted sister, Ariel, has been running from the truth - the one about Raena, about herself and Gavin - and doesn't know if she'll be able to face either of them.

The Dangerous Type is a mix of military science fiction and an adventurous space opera that grabs you from the first words and doesn't let go. Along with a supporting cast of smugglers, black-market doctors, and other ne'er-do-wells sprawled across a galaxy brimming with alien life, The Dangerous Type is a fantastic beginning to Loren Rhoads' epic trilogy.

Agree with days of our lives with soft porn.

Started well but went downhill quickly. Completely lost plot direction and appears to have been padded with soft porn for no particular reason - although that might be unfair because I didn't continue with it much after that. Narration was quite good though.

Couldn't finish

Some people love this book and I get it, if you like sci fi and OTT unrealistic erotica with a slow plot, then this book is for you. It definitely wasn't for me, despite being fairly original. I got bored on the 'Pleasure planet' while waiting for the story to start moving again and eventually lost interest and gave up listening altogether.

like days of our lives but with soft porn

Not really SciFi; more like days of our lives with soft porn between a menage a trois. I could only get halfway through the book, waiting for it to improve. It got two stars from me rather than one because it is reasonably well written and the characters are developed ok but the story is really not my cup of tea and not what I'd call SciFi.
