An exciting story!

4.5 Stars. There are 5 books before this one, and I hadn't read or listened to any of the prior 5. I was able to enjoy this story without hearing the others; however, it probably would have been smarter to have listened to the earlier books. Nevertheless, the author did a wonderful job of filling in the back story from the prior books, without overloading the new reader with unnecessary details. This story captures the attention of the listener. There is suspense, intrigue, villainous behavior, redemption, romance, and characters that are very intelligent and likeable. Most of the accents sounded very authentic, but the Australian accent needed some work. Other than that, the recording quality was excellent. The narrator does a wonderful job of keeping the characters distinguishable and interesting. All in all, it was a wonderful listen!

Best Cyber/Technology Thriller Ever!

The R-Group faces their most complicated job yet. They must locate a Dr. Pekoni whose work focuses on expanding the life of humans via their DNA. His unethical use of a supercomputer and ultimate goals force the R-Group to step in and wage cyberwar against Pekoni. Petra and Jacob are still coming to terms with their previous mission and subsequent separation.

The bonds of friendship, love, and family are even stronger in this novel forcing some to step out of their comfort level to face their fears and defeat the evil doers. There are several storylines going at the same time yet they all intertwine in a meticulously and deviously planned way.

Charles Breakfield and Roxanne Burkey continue their riveting Enigma series with this latest novel. As usual, they have their listeners on the edge of their seats as they await each outcome. Breakfield and Burkey methodically take the listener through every emotion while also challenging the listener to consider the ethical questions these books bring to light without having to ask them … in this book, is a fountain of youth that allows humans up to 1,000 years of life ethical, problematic, how would it affect the world overall and what other sort of problems would this promote?

Breakfield and Burkey continue to develop their characters putting them through some problems normal people go through – such as self-doubt, misunderstandings, love, fear and more while also struggling to do their job.

Derek Shoales as the narrator of this series is awesome! I love listening to him, he moves the story along with his interpretation of what he thinks each character sounds like as well as injecting the appropriate emotions into the story. To me, these three people have made the Enigma Series number 1 in my mind! I can say without a doubt, this is a series that has it all … intrigue, mystery, romance, and danger!

There were no issues with the quality or production of this audiobook. Everything was clear and paced appropriately.

Always: Young , Always:Great, Always: An Adventure

The sixth book in the series and sixth time being kept wrapped in the adventure. Is a fountain of you actually possible and probable. Commander Po is connecting the possibilities when suddenly the project takes a terrible twist. The heroes and villains are on the trail and once again the R-group is on the race to ensuring balance. Great Narration once agin by Derek of great Breakfield & Burkey story. Sometimes I wonder what’s it like inside all their heads, then I say, No not going there my own is crazy enough haha

Heart maker and breaker.

So. For now, I'm skipping my review of book five and moving right to book six. Seriously, book five really messed with my head, so I can't stop to contemplate my review. However, in this story, so MUCH happens! Some relationships get sort of repaired, some former enemies become true allies, and their alliances with former bad sorts were explained and the reasons were celebrated. I think my favorite character in this story was Buzz, especially since I've truly despised him in previous stories. He is such a real person in this story, he's hard not to like. Thankfully, he has Jacob's back, as it were. This quest has been my favorite so far. There is just so much going on! Loved every second!
