About this listen
Set in a lethal waterworld where sudden death is a way of life, The Skinner is the first novel in the far-future Spatterjay series by Neal Asher.
The savage ocean planet of Spatterjay draws visitors with very different agendas. Erlin is immortal and seeks a reason to keep living. Janer hosts a hive mind, which paid him to find this planet. And Keech is an agent of Earth who’s been dead for seven hundred years – but still hunts a notorious criminal.
On Spatterjay’s vast waterscapes, only the Old Captains risk the native life forms and their voracious appetites. However, they are now barely human. And somewhere out there Keech’s target – the Skinner – runs wild. Keech pursues the Skinner for atrocities committed in a centuries-past war, fought with the alien Prador. But one of these Prador is fast approaching Spatterjay to exterminate witnesses to his own war crimes. And he won’t spare its visitors.
Continue the science fiction adventure with The Voyage of Sable Keech and Orbus.

Great performance by the voice artist
William Gaminara's reading really helps to differentiate & keep track of the many characters & narrative threads, without sounding too "actor-y". Will look for more read by him.

Great Sci
Great use of the past with future Tech. Concept and story was solid. I felt like 1800s area captain with 25 century tech and opportunity. I'm hooked!

Science fiction for young adults
A very basic story line, nauseating character development and the emotional content made me retch, it is that awful. Rubbish
