نقد و بررسی

William Dufris delivers a captivating, lighthearted, and funny narration. He moves effortlessly from character to character, changing accents and creating distinct personalities with ease. Our hero, space adventurer Cole, is a liar, a thief, and a cheat, but he outwits Kenneth, an alien who wants to incubate eggs in his brain, and his archenemy, Runk. Cole's ludicrous exploits will keep listeners laughing and listening. This absurd universe also includes dust motes carrying branding messages and middle-management zombies. Dufris never stumbles when pronouncing campy names like Yrnameer, InVestCo 3, Xhat, FunWorld World, Bacchi, and more. Dufris moves the rocket-fast farcical narrative along, ratcheting up the tension during the darker moments. S.C.A. (c) AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine

A down-and-out space faring rogue finds himself the protector of a bunch of peacenik artisans in this lighthearted, adventure-filled debut from The Daily Show with Jon Stewart
writer Rubens. Space adventurer Cole is a liar and a thief and a cheat, and he owes a lot of money to Kenneth, an alien who wants to incubate eggs in the deadbeat's brain. Cole's escape from Kenneth lands him in the middle of a scheme to deliver a batch of freeze-dried orphans to the backwater planet of Yrnameer, which turns out to be under attack from Cole's archenemy, the outlaw Runk. Cole's ludicrous exploits keep the laughs coming as Rubens grandly ignores the niceties of world building and coherent plotting in favor of clever pop culture references and a rocket-fast, knee-slapping narrative.
