Story
Few know the warship’s actual name. But everyone has heard the rumors. The PUV James Keeling can do something no other vessel in existence can do—slip into another dimension, travel undetected, then re-emerge onto our plane and surprise enemy targets. But the thing that makes the Crypt unique also makes it a nightmare for those onboard; interdimensional travel causes hallucinations, violent behavior, and psychotic breakdowns. Keeling could be the Union’s greatest weapon, a game-changing asset that can defeat the bloodthirsty zealots of the Purist Nation, the Union’s mortal enemy.

Story
A company of Army Rangers is sent on an interstellar colony ship to secure a foothold on a dangerous, alien planet through violence of action. Leaving behind a warring Earth flung headfirst into a conflict of mutual assured destruction, the Rangers and the accompanying crew of first colonists are guided on a 40-year journey by an unprecedented artificial intelligence. But when they emerge from the frigid embrace of cryosleep, they awake to a nightmare, finding themselves greeted by the same ruthless enemy that brought about the ruin of Earth.

Story
When an experiment to study quantum uncertainty goes spectacularly wrong, physics student Bill Rustad and his friends find that they have accidentally created an inter-dimensional portal. They connect to Outland - an alternate Earth with identical geology, but where humans never evolved. The group races to establish control of the portal before the government, the military, or evildoers can take it away. Then everything changes when the Yellowstone supervolcano erupts in an explosion large enough to destroy civilization and kill half the planet.

Publisher's Summary
About the audiobook:
The Worldship Humility is the start of The Code trilogy, written exclusively for audio by sci-fi author R. R. Haywood. Narrator Colin Morgan brings the colourful characters and treacherous escapades of The Worldship Humility to life, a gripping space adventure which will appeal to fans of Ready Player One, Bladerunner and Haywood’s previous best-selling works, Extracted and The Undead.
Summary:
It’s been 120 years since the 50 or so worldships containing the few million survivors set off after planet Earth was destroyed by a meteor.
On the Worldship Humility, Sam, an Airlock Operative, is bored. Living in space should be full of adventure, except it isn’t, and he fills his time hacking 3-D movie posters.
Petty thief Yasmine Dufont is also from the WS Humility, but she is not bored. Growing up in the Elfors, the lawless lower levels of the ship, has seen her surrounded by violence and squalor since birth, and now she wants out. She wants to escape to the luxury of the Ab-Spa on top of WS Abstinence, where they eat real food instead of rats and synth cubes.
Meanwhile, the sleek-hulled, unmanned Gagarin has come back from punching out ahead of the fleet in the ever-continuing search for a new home. Nearly all hope is lost that a new planet will ever be found, until the Gagarin returns with a code of information that suggests a habitable planet has been found. This news should be shared with the whole fleet, but a few rogue captains want to keep the information to themselves and colonise the new planet.
When Yasmine inadvertently steals the code, she and Sam become caught up in a dangerous game of murder, corruption, political wrangling and...porridge, with sex-addicted Detective Zhang Woo hot on their heels, his own life at risk if he fails to get the code back.

Book full of sex, but I thought this was space
Just far too much sexy sex romance going on. I was hoping this would be more sci-fi than it ended up being, not that I mind going in to relationships in sci-fi, this book just far too often meandered in to sex and each character (like seriously all of them) have some sexual issue to explore. Instead of the topic of sex being an interesting side avenue to go down, it ended up taking center stage and really for me anyway took away any impact it could have had.
That being said I still want to go in to the next book because the overarching plot and world that has been created I find fascinating.
Narrator is great, at least had me laughing during the sexual scenes.

Amazing!! Read it. Wow
I did not expect to enjoy this book at all. It’s been sitting in my library for a long time. I could kick myself! I was hooked straight away. Well written and full of action, humour with a great story line. I definitely recommend this book, even if it doesn’t fall in to a favourite genre.

It was pleasant but felt incomplete
Overall it was enjoyable, but the end is quite disappointing. This is one of those books that finishes after a major climax and provides no closure to many significant plot points.

Long time sci-fi reader/listener, one of the best!
I can't think of anything negative at all to say. Excellent story with an excellent narrator. Very much looking forward to the next book. I will now have to also see what else this author has done.

Hands down the best narration I've heard!
Geeat story, but even better reader. Quick and consistent through many characters. I'll be looking for the second book in this series - as apparently this one ends in a cliffhanger - and other titles read by this narrator as well!
