About this listen

After a life lived for parties, sex, and drugs spiraled into grief, she went to selling herself and fighting for survival.

Now one of Boljelam's angry rebels, she leads a cheapened life on one of the most unjust space station in the universe. Then, she finds an unexpected way out.

An escape from a life of abuse and hardship in the form of a ticket on a ship set for Honeycomb. Taken from a dead woman's purse, it's a one-way ticket to a new, pristine planet, to heaven.
Will she be able to pull it off and get out alive?

Or will two rabid cops, a zombie AI, and a level full of monsters in her way keep her escaping?
And what about that bioengineered murder dogging her steps? He wants out as bad as she does!

This book deserves a better rating than the three stars given but production is so poor as to be an irritating distraction which interferes with the reader's enjoyment. In fact, it makes comprehension of the entire book difficult. Briefly, a woman whose life has become into!erable finds a way out, a fresh start, in the form of a ticket for the Phoenix, a ship leaving the station on a one way trip to Honeycomb, a clean, New world. But another creature, a Fail, also wants that ticket. Both intend to be on that ship and both will fight through cops, AIs, and a monster creature invasion to be the one to board.

Very fuuristic, the images produced should have been intriguing and exciting but the sound track behind the narration was intrusive as well as annoying, sometimes making interpretation of what was said difficult. And in section six, the volume also drops, the background is very noisy and overall sounds like a gigantic technical fault. Coupled with the speed at which Richard Hercher reads (fast), this becomes a difficult book to hear, let alone enjoy, and setting the playback speed to .75 distorts the sound too much to be viable. A pity since Mr.Hercher's voice is pleasant, with good intonation and expression.

My thanks to the rights holder of Honeycomb: Boljelam, who, at my request via Audiobook Boom, freely gifted me with a complimentary copy. The story, I think, is exciting and original, the narrator has promise but the production badly let it down. Better to read the book in visual text form as I now intend to do.
