OCEAN'S GODORI

Judy Alice Lee narrates this action-packed space opera with skill, shifting between three very different perspectives. Ocean is a talented pilot and a wicked shot who is working for the Korean space agency on the OHNEUL. She's tough but loyal to her loved ones, including her best friend, Teo. Teo's ease and flirtatiousness shine in Lee's narration but shift into desperation when his ship comes under attack. Haven is an outsider when he joins the OHNEUL's crew, and Lee's quiet voice reflects his thoughtful, cautious nature--and attraction to Ocean. Lee brings warmth to scenes of tentative romance, shipboard camaraderie, and many delicious meals. And when raiders attack, Lee ramps up the pace, making listeners feel all of the tension. Excellent sci-fi listening with hints of more to come. E.E.C. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE 2024]
