Nice Prequel Story!

I probably should have listened to the main book first, but this is a great introduction to the series nonetheless. Well written and SUPERBLY narrated! It's a SUPER enjoyable listen. Highly recommended.

Great Sci-Fi Short Story!

I was introduced to the Denver Moon series through the graphic novel that adapts this exact prequel story. I really enjoyed it so I wanted to explore what else the world of Denver Moon had to offer.

Already being familiar with the story, I knew what to expect; a cool sci-fi setting on Mars with very good world building and a strong & fun private investigator as the main character. I do feel that the ending was just a bit rushed but the story was very enjoyable overall.

The performance of the audiobook was all around great, notably Amanda Day who was excellent as Denver. I really appreciated the audio effects when Denver would sub-vocalize to her AI, which made the listen that much more immersive.

Overall, this is definitely worth checking out if you like futuristic sci-fi and detective type stories. I will absolutely be continuing with this series!

Mars Detective

With how short this is I would not spend a credit on it, I even bought it on sale, and would suggest buying it when it's on sale for 2 or 3 dollars. A Mars Private Detective short story that could stand alone. Doesn't stay too long and is rich with world building.
Some of the voice work could use tweaking, felt like I was listening to a Fallout New Vegas mod at a few points, but Amanda Day does an amazing job as the main character.

loved it
