Resumen del Editor
Kittyhawk Gruff never wanted to compete with her sisters. It's not her fault she's good at everything from alien artifacts to hyperspace mechanics. She'd far rather be ordinary than deal with her family's resentment. But when a trans-dimensional entity lures her sisters into an archaeological death trap, Kittyhawk knows she will have to stop pretending and live up to her own potential.
This is a delightful short story, but it's not a full-length novel. The characters are fun and the concepts are challenging, and more lengthy adventures with the Gruff sisters will be forthcoming. In fact, the better this book sells, the more quickly additional stories will come.

Historia
Moth was a beautiful planet, the only one with wings - two great golden clouds suspended in space around it. Here was a wide-open world for any venture a man might scheme. The planet attracted unwary travelers, hardened space-sailors, and merchant buccaneers - a teeming, constantly shifting horde that provided a comfortable income for certain quick-witted fellows like Flinx and his pet flying snake Pip.

Historia
Conquered by the Jao twenty years ago, the Earth is shackled under alien tyranny - and threatened by the even more dangerous Ekhat, one of whose genocidal extermination fleets is coming to the solar system. The only chance for human survival is in the hands of an unusual pair of allies: a young Jao prince, newly arrived to Terra to assume his duties, and a young human woman brought up amongst the Jao occupiers. But, as their tentative alliance takes shape, they are under pressure from all sides.

The Tantalus 13 survey expedition went off the rails as soon as Mary Ketch and the crew of the Diamelen learned that the thing beneath their feet wasn’t a planet. An impossibly vast and ancient artificial structure lies below, hidden from the universe under a façade of cratered stone. SCARAB arrived on Tantalus 13 two years ago. An artificially intelligent, self-constructing factory, it was supposed to aid the crew in their mission, to meet their every need.

Historia
They tried to destroy our planets. Our way of life. They tried to send us into extinction. But we, the Coalition, fought them and won. That was a decade ago. They’re known as the Host: a cabal of aliens seeking to dominate our sector of space. And they’re back - with help from a powerful new enemy. We’re outnumbered and unprepared. But there is hope. An ancient race of long-dead but technologically advanced aliens called the Navigators have a ship called the Blackstar that could potentially turn the tide. That is if I, Kai Locke, a humble ship racer, can find it and learn how to harness its power in time.

Excellent Narration Makes A Good Story Better
Would you listen to A Starscape Slightly Askew again? Why?
It's a fun story to hear and I'm sure that there are elements I will probably need to remember for the next book in the series. In addition, I love this narrator's voice and style.
Who was your favorite character and why?
I think Kittyhawk is my favorite character. You can hear the struggle she is having trying not to be so extraordinary, so that her sisters will stop being as competitive with her as they are. She's got a sort of effortless genius to her.
Have you listened to any of Popi Ardissone’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
This is the first book I've heard Ms. Ardissone narrate and I will be on the lookout for whatever else she does. I'm assuming she is new to audiobook narration, because this and the other story by N. Ellen Fulda are the only two I can find under her name.
Ardissone really makes the characters come to life and she also finds unexpected levels of emotion and character that might be missed in just reading the book. She is clearly an experienced actress and Ms. Fulda was smart to catch her at this early stage of her narration career.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
In space, no one can hear you scream... at your sisters.
