À propos de cet audio

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.

Hard to put down

What a trip! Funny, sad and everything in between. Yasmine hooks you in with her vulgar crass will to survive in the worst conditions. Pretty Sam makes you fall for him with his sweet geekiness. Worth a listen.

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.
