Editorial reviews

Editors Select, October 2016 - While I'm not usually a fan of audio accessorizing (background noises, artful static, music, etc.), the physical versions of Kristoff and Kaufman's two ambitious novels (of which Gemina is the second) feel more like graphic novels than standard books, even though they don't have pictures. The text is arranged artfully and almost becomes the pictures. With such visual intricacy, clearly these books demand extra audio care. And in both works the audio producers have done a remarkable job of responding to the physical nature of the books, creating a fully immersive "found object" experience. As with Illuminae, the complex story took me about 30 minutes of serious concentration to slide into, but then BAM, I was hooked. Emily, Audible Editor

Publisher's summary

Brace yourself for Gemina — the highly anticipated sequel to the book critics called “out-of-this-world awesome,” — featuring journal illustrations by best-selling author Marie Lu!

Moving to a space station at the edge of the galaxy was always going to be the death of Hanna's social life. Nobody said it might actually get her killed.

The sci-fi saga that began with the breakout best seller Illuminae continues onboard the Jump Station Heimdall, where two new characters will confront the next wave of the BeiTech assault.

Hanna is the station captain's pampered daughter, Nik the reluctant member of a notorious crime family. But while the pair are struggling with the realities of life aboard the galaxy's most boring space station, little do they know that Kady Grant and the Hypatia are headed right toward Heimdall, carrying news of the Kerenza invasion.

When an elite BeiTech strike team invades the station, Hanna and Nik are thrown together to defend their home. But alien predators are picking off the station residents one by one, and a malfunction in the station's wormhole means the space-time continuum might be ripped in two before dinner. Soon Hanna and Nik aren't just fighting for their own survival; the fate of everyone on the Hypatia - and possibly the known universe - is in their hands.

But relax. They've totally got this. They hope.

Once again told through a compelling dossier of emails, IMs, classified files, transcripts, and schematics, Gemina raises the stakes of the Illuminae Files, hurling listeners into an enthralling new story that will leave them breathless.

Narrated by Carla Corvo, MacLeod Andrews, Steve West, Erik Davies, Lisa Cordileone, and a full cast.

Good story - long winded presentation

I like the story but the endless repetition of unnecessary @heimdalonboard, etc just gets boring. Very good use of the medium so it's more of a radio play than a spoken book.

Holy F**king sh*t.

That’s all I gotta say. This book made me gasp more than anything else in the multiverse. Ha see what I did there.
Anyways HIGHLY recommend this series to anyone who loves their mind being blown! Best part with these books are the endings. Bada** music, and creepy a** bad guys. It’s absolutely GLORIOUS!
That is all..

Enjoyable Continuation of Illuminae

Very entertaining and wonderful performance from the cast! This book is not as good Illuminae but was still super enjoyable and would recommend.

Único

Es la segunda vez que leo Gemina y ahora junto al audiolibro, la experiencia es brutal. No he leído nunca una serie como esta. Es emocionante, divertida y original. Ahora toca leer la última parte, Obsidio, y terminar con esta historia!

One of the best

This was so riveting I found myself walking around my house with headphones in ignoring my family and adding a couple of miles to my run just so I could hear more. The whole premise of logs and different voices was pitch perfect. I want more!
