Random question. I am trying to find the names of two books that I listened to once and don't recall the names. 1. An explosion at a university opens portals into other worlds and of course aliens of different sorts come through. Various army's attempt to defend the world. 2. Various people develop magical talents and one officers becomes magic and is sent off planet where a task force is under heavy attack. Anyone know these?
@@otterrivers3765 Hi. I spent an hour or so searching,and found that the first one is Into the Looking Glass by John Ringo. It was a great book, I found it on TH-cam, but like so many of the better ones, it was too taken down. I regularly search for John Ringo, Devon C Ford, Sam Sheridan and Jack Williams. They occasionally get uploaded, and if you are quick, you can listen before the publisher takes them down.I will keep searching for the second one.
Thruster power: A rocket can take you into orbit, but due to thrust it cannot stop after 65 feet and set down on a hill. So you say, just quickly toggle on and off, but that won't work because you couldn't do it fast enough AND you would still have too much thrust so even if you got shut off, you would already be a few hundred or a few thousand feet past your mark. Same goes, in reverse, for thrusters that could get you to do short jumps. They wouldn't have enough thrust to get you to do higher or orbital jumps. Basically enough power for high jumps, but too much for short or enough power for short jumps, but too little for high jumps. To solve it, you would have to install both systems, hopefully have them use same fuel, still be light enough for your vehicle/ mech/ ship, and have enough on vessel storage for the fuel for both.
4:25:19 and... i don't think I'm going to continue. I love sci-fi, mech, private military organizations, aliens and all that stuff, but this books fails to catch. Although I like Lisa's arc, everything else bores me despite me wanting to like it (:
@@jolujo5842 I couldn't have put it better myself! Frank Jackson: Thanks for the perfect quality copy. Audible: Thank you for making the recording, not sure why you let them get posted on TH-cam, but thank you very much for doing so. Inka: you did not actually inform us of anything, even what you didn't like. Maybe the writing is marginal - but you are listening to it for free on TH-cam!
Jolujo 58 well keep in mind there is a lot of mech anime but not a lot of mech books. If there were I’d be collecting them but they are greatly limited. If you try to watch mech anime take notice some will be great and some will probably not meet your standards to watch. Same thing happens with books like this. I personally found great interest in this book.
So Lisa's Korean accent sounds like what non-Asians think Asian people should sound like. Enjoying the book. Thank you.
Lol! One should take into account a foreigner's perception no?
I would like to see this as a movie!
Thanks for the books! 👍☺
A great mech book!
Awesome story and character development
Great Book
I like SF!!!!
Lead bullets don't "clink" when hitting a concrete floor.

No but I wish I did! Those sound awesome!

Did I not hear the mechs could jump into a low earth orbit in space but can't apparently leap a 65 foot wall how does that work?

Just what in the he'll were you looking for?
Maybe you could suggest a better audiobook for the rest of us rather than bitching about your problems
