Crossover by Joel Shepherd. Great example of an author who uses fancy talk to sound smart, but it comes across as simple. That said, the titular Qalea Drop is a stunning locale for a science fiction romp, a city so old that it is a maze of canyons and repulser air traffic with buildings clinging to the side - not of natural rock, but of over years, seven entire historical ages, of collapsed rubble.
So as you can imagine, the hoverbike chases are a bit good. However, the entire arc beyond spiral space has been too stretched out and is now getting too bitty - each of the stories told would be an excellent story in its own right, but the evacuation of Rando belonged in the previous book, as did the fall and redemption arc as the characters struggle with necessity over morals.
This book does provide a redemption arc of sorts for the main characters, and continues the age old sci-fi trope - Home is the regiment, across the sea of stars. Finally, the ending felt as forced as Rando Splicer - and Chroma Venture. It almost feels as if the author is meandering a little - which is also where some of his other series just stop, so I am a little concerned. So my criticism may be unfair - Rando Splicer was split two ways, three if you include the side plots in spiral space - and yet the meat of that book I remember the best is the one bit you could do away with, Phoenix goes on a road trip.
I mean, there are so many iconic scenes in that section. Rando continues an excellent military romp, but that section feels dragged out - three whole character viewpoints on the evacuation, one or two on Qalea, that balance feels wrong.
This series is a must for any true Sci-Fi fan. It has everything you could wish for and more. John Lee provides an epic narration as usual and brings the characters to vibrant life! This is one of my favourite SF series - I can't wait for the next one. The universe of the series is elaborate and fascinating with many alien species and AIs. Whenever there is a conflict between humans and friendly AIs I usually find myself rooting for the AIs - this is how well developed the AI characters are.
All the characters are very well developed. The narration by John Lee Is excellent as usual. Smart writing and great narration. What more could you ask for? Bring on the next volume in the series! Not much to say. Another installment that does not disappoint, in a series that has become one of the best sci-fi worlds I've experienced. Charachters continue to develop in interesting directions and the canon of the universe keeps on expanding, and the plot of the overrall story thickens.
Impatient for the next one. Renegade was my first audible book. A Year later and I eent through Qilea Drop in a weekend. It is ace. Shepherd's world building is massive, rich and detailed but it never gets daunting or feels bloated. Plus his characters have amazing arcs. In this book alone he deals with morality of AI, refugees, PTSD, immigration, far right extremism and religious fanaticism all wrapped up in an engaging mystery adventure that is not only a great sci fi story but is funny.
A rare gem, please hurry with the next one! Loved this installment. Possibly my favorite all time space opera. Great narration. As ever. Love the characters and story development. Well done Joel.
