Resumen del Editor
It started as a simple heist.
It went to hell from there.
On a space station orbiting a pale blue sun, a package changes hands. Data too sensitive to transmit will be exposed for one brief moment. The client is paying a crazy sum - if the job is clean.
That’s not going to happen.
Instead, the galaxy’s unluckiest crew of outlaws will have to put all their resources into salvaging what they can from the job.
Even if it’s only avoiding blame for the fallout.
Tech, Lies, and Wizardry is a sampling of the hijinks you’ll find in the 26th-century’s greatest outlaw space opera, Black Ocean.

Earth...Population: 1 Her name is Eve14. She is the result of a 1000-year project by the robots of Earth to restore the planet after all life was wiped out in 2065. 27 robotic minds, copied from Earth's great scientists, carried on after the species died. They mixed and matched those minds in endless combinations, producing a whole race of machines with human personalities. Immortal, but with memories of sensations they can no longer experience, some renegade robots now have a daring agenda. They want human bodies.

Historia
The galaxy’s worst bounty hunter just might be its most relentless hero. Esper Richelieu is a wizard with a mission: To make the galaxy a better place one lost soul at a time. Donning the trappings of an interstellar bounty hunter, she delves into the galaxy’s underworld to search out those most in need of help. Whether it’s a teenage runaway or an actor kidnapped by cultists, the victim comes first. Money is an afterthought. That confuses a lot of clients. But sometimes the best way to get someone to accept the help they need is to convince them to pay for it.

Punished for exceeding orders one time too many, he’s packed off to the "The Abyss"—the most dangerous space station in the galaxy.

Charlie7 is the progenitor of a mechanical race he built from the ashes of a dead world—Earth. He is a robot of leisure and idle political meddling—a retirement well-earned. Or he was, until a human girl named Eve was dropped in his lap. Geneticists have restored Earth’s biome and begun repopulation. But primate cloning is in its infancy; human cloning is banned. Far from a failed genetics experiment, Eve is brilliant, curious, and heartbreakingly naïve about her species’ history. But Eve’s creator wants her back and has a gruesome fate planned for her.

Captain Keyes is loved by the public but hated by Command. He captains the UHS Providence, an aging supercarrier and the last human ship not dependent on dark tech - technology humanity has used to rule over the galaxy since barely defeating the Ixa in the First Galactic War. Dominance has come at a cost. Over the decades, old allies have grown resentful, and when dark tech itself fails, Captain Keyes’ predictions start coming true: those old allies are now enemies.

Sucked through a wormhole, Charlie's spaceship crash landed on a distant world, yet somehow he survived. But survival was about to get a lot harder as he found himself not just stranded on a new planet, but in another galaxy entirely. One ruled not by the laws of technology, but by magic. A realm of space pirates, deadly assassins, alien gladiators, and even dragons. For the spaceman from Earth, it was enough to make his head spin.

Short, but to the point
What did you love best about Tech, Lies, and Wizardry?
I liked the feel of the world. It is pulling the worlds of Sci-Fi and Fantasy together a bit more, almost like Dresden files in space. Only... there is a bit more space feel that magic feel... well.. in this short story anyway.
How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
I could only have asked for more.
What does Mikael Naramore bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Easy to listen to vocals and does a good job distinguishing character voices.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Maybe just the title.. it captures it all right there..
Any additional comments?
Good fun.. and VERY quick listen. Already hoping to meet again with these characters.

He had good infliction of each individual character.

Nothing extreme.

if you have listened to the rest of this story line, this is fairly predictable.
I like the concept and the narration but wouldn't have invested myself in it at all if I hadn't already spent time working my way through the series.

Nice lil snack
I'm currently reading Mission 6 of Black Ocean when I heard about the prequel Tech, Lies and Wizardry. Could only obtain it through Audible so I quickly scooped it up and listened to the 50 minute story.
It was a little flat comparitively but seeing as it was a quick prequel and still well written I gave it four stars. Not much character development but nice to see where Chip came into the crew and all in all it was enjoyable for $2.75 or something like that.

Engaging but too short, even for a short story...
First off, I am usually pretty critical of narrators, but this one does a great job. He has a good range of voices, allowing you to identify the character purely by voice.
The writing is good, but I definitely felt like we skipped over the climax and actually including the scenes would have made for a longer and better book.
The price... If I compare length to price on comparable audio books, the price is steep. At less than an hour, a comparable 10 hr book would be over $40.
Conclusions: I think it is a good teaser to get you to read the other books, but I'm not sure that the content delivers on the investment. Hopefully the series has a better page/time to dollar ratio.

Good tale of the dark ocean.
Far too short, I hope that future add on stories will be longer. Narrator was excellent - as usual.

An enjoyable tidbit of a story
After listening to the 5-star epic audio book of episodes 1 to 16.5 (85 hours of action, humor, and amazing writing and narration) - I saw there was this short story.
It's good. But, if this were to be the introduction to the characters of the Black Ocean stories, it might lose some potential listeners. It's too short to hook people in with the individuality and strong personalities of the series.
I love the sound effect between scenes. Audio books are a great medium for entertaining the listeners and I really enjoy good use of sound effects. There's only the one sound used for this series, but it's great.
Narration: Fantastic
