About this listen

A thrilling collection of the entire best-selling Orbs series from New York Times best-selling author Nicholas Sansbury Smith.

While training for a manned mission to Mars, Dr. Sophie Winston and her team of scientists find themselves cut off from the rest of the world. Trapped inside a biosphere deep within the confines of Cheyenne Mountain, Sophie and crew discover they are the survivors of a brutal alien invasion. But as they struggle to stay alive, they realize their safe haven is far from safe and that they must team up with other survivors around the world to defeat the aliens before it’s too late for humanity and the Earth.

Science fiction with no Science

The story puts action over any scientific or logical thinking. All characters are irrational stereotypes and it is frustrating to listin when they make decisions that affect "entire humanity". The voice acting was good except for that AI part that was so mechanical. For those with time and no credits.

Good story. Average performance

The story was quite engaging but the narration was painful. The narrator should stick to reading the story normally which he does okay. His version of accents is annoying and when there's action scenes he yells with a really weird intonation. The voice he uses to depict fear sounds ridiculous. Overall it was a good story but the narration left a lot to be desired.

logically flawed but decent story

narration is bad, narrator yells randomly where it's not required. Interesting ideas but somehow the advanced race did not have a single gun or an equivalent

Couldn't stop till all 4 books were done.

A brilliantly written sci-fi series for those who want everything. Aliens, doomsday, survival instinct of humanity etc. Narration could've been better, in the sense that a diverse cast would have done better justice to the storyline. But Bronson too gave his best with all those voice modulations and special effects. Very entertaining.

Mildly entertaining, wouldn't listen again

I think this book is targeted towards teens and maybe pre-teens. Very straightforward plot, with some interesting threads that come together at the end.

Out of This World

This was an incredibly well-written and even better read series. If I had just read the book, I would've given it 4 stars but Bronson Pinchot's reading was on point, so perfectly done that it deserved its own star. I am definitely going to listen to this one again.

Good Plot.

Very nice narrated, never felt bored. Was thrilling and the plot kept you guessing what's will come next and as soon as you got the idea what will happen next, boy you were wrong 😳

Seemed promising, but...

the story felt like a predictable Hollywood flick bordering on b grade action thriller. The Narration was good, but the content was just too thin.
