I, Starship, Part 3

By: Scott Bartlett

Narrated by: Mark Boyett

When your starship's computer undergoes a catastrophic meltdown, light years from help, it's bad.

When you are that ship's computer, it's worse.

Fresh from the destruction of the colony they were assigned to protect, the UES Interchange is now hurtling toward Proxima Centauri, there to rally reinforcements against the tide of revolutionary rage currently rocking the galaxy.

But when they arrive, they find the heart of galactic civilization eerily quiet...and empty. At the same time, Sergeant Henry Morgan, the ship's computer, is utterly unresponsive.

The curtain is about to be pulled back on a secret so dark it will break the crew of the Interchange right down the middle.

In its wake, the only question to answer will be whether their mission can continue at all.

Frantic burn to surprising reveals, and continued conflicts

This review, covering books 5 & 6 which make up Part 3 of the series (yeah, I know, it's awkward) mirrors my previous feelings about this story, it's characters, the setting, and narration. In short, it's fantastic from all angles. Each chapter focuses on POV of one character, increasing our connections to their thoughts and actions. An enormous amount of time is passing for some, and being fully experienced by others, due to the stasis shifts. The starship undergoes significant realizations. Mark Boyette adds even more fresh voices to his already talented narration abilities. Will humanity finally be saved? [Disclosure: I received this title for free and listened at 2.0x.]

Another amazing book

I continue to love this series.

Slight spoiler, Henry Morgan is notably absent at the beginning of the book, but you figure out why soon enough. The series continues to keep me very happy and scratch that Science fiction itch for sure!
