Kidnapping in space

I enjoyed this book. It is very different to what I normally listen to but it is action packed and with a number of twists that caught and held my interest until the very end. The reason I liked it was because of the contrast between the two main male characters, that worked very well. The steampunk aspect to the story was interesting, especially combining space travel with the wild West. It's a standalone book that is sure to stretch the imagination.
Jonathan Orbital is a well known face in the rail industry because his father was behind the ground breaking technology that made it possible. So it is not unusual to find him traveling aboard but what is unusual is the fact that pirates attack the train taking not only valuables but also a hostage. A French woman who's father is just as famous as Jonathan's. The roguish space captain will do anything for a quick buck especially if it means he can run repairs on his ship. As well as Jonathan the space pirate falls under her spell but when he is double crossed by his own men he has to join forces with the billionaire in order to rescue the girl. A race and battle across space ensues but who will come out on top?
I liked the narrator. I had no problems tell the characters apart because he used very distinct and different sounding voices for each of them.
