Disappointing and boring

Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2021

Verified Purchase

I'm a big fan of Mr.Boyd's past work but this and the book before it were not his best work.the paranoia and focus on training were monotonous and take up the majority of the story time. The plot of the last two books could have been covered in two chapters not two books. I hope for more plot and newer plot development if these books continue.

A fun twist of events

Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2021

Verified Purchase

Jerry is having a lot of fun with this series. I tell my students that writing should be fun or cathartic.
If I say anything I will be dropping spoilers all over the place. The gestalt of all the stories is where the entertainment lies. The nay sayers seem to focus on the microcosm and nit pick it. It is the macrocosm that gives this series a three dimensional feel and leaves you guessing which way Jerry is going with it. That is what hooked me. I feel like I should be attending one of those meetings, "Hi, I'm Larry and I'm addicted to Bob & Nikki:-). I look forward to my next fix.

Getting a bit unhappy.....

Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2021

Verified Purchase

I have been following this series since its inception, and I get the feeling that Mr Boyd is starting to reach for ideas - the flowing theme of the early books is missing.
Add to that, about the first tenth of the recent books is an unnecessary recounting of characters, animals, ships and the like that is an annoying obstacle on the way to the story.
2. I dont mind the folksy repertoire, but when a character makes a statement and there is a one or two page restatement by the other party beginning with "You mean you are saying..." or "You mean to say I..." it is beginning to feel like a space filling exercise.
I'll stick with them for a while longer and hope Jerry returns to the pace and flavour of the early books.

Excellent!

Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2021

Verified Purchase

I don't know if Jerry ever read them, but I've left pretty tough reviews of his books since the first- the stories are amazing, but his dialogue was... embarrassing. It didn't seem to improve for a long time...
Finally, he got it sorted! Dialogue is relaxed and natural, for the most part. Much more enjoyable to read, without all of the cringing.

I have to leave one criticism, or I'd feel like I was cheating him .
I'm not sure using "Boss" as a title was a wise choice...it starts reading like a 1930s gangster movie script.

But that's minor and just my little opinion.

Great Job, Jerry. Loved it!

Ozzie returns from his honeymoon

Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2022

Verified Purchase

Presumably Ozzie and Phillus eloped and went away on their honeymoon, since both have been missing for most of the last half dozen books or so. Ozzie at least comes back for a bit in this. Other than that, not much happens in this book. Bob spends some time working at "tough" sims that are about as hard as the first level on most 90s era flight games. What little plot there is centers around a renowned adventurer and explorer, when faced with the choice between traveling the stars in equipment she could only dream of or returning to an Earth that has nobody and nothing familiar for her, choosing to go home to face an endless media and government barrage. Nothing like completely ignoring your characters' personalities in favor of setting up the next book. Overall this may be the weakest book in the entire series.

Good Continuity

Reviewed in the United States on August 28, 2021

Verified Purchase

I remain intrigued even after 19 installments for this series. The background is well blended with each current book, bringing old characters up-to-date as required, adding in new characters when encountered and progressively moved forward with each book. While the author plays loose and fast with science and technology he does stay persistent within limits established in the stories. I remain a fan of the series and willingly search for each new release.

Keep them coming!

Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2022

I love this series. Every time a new volume shows up it makes my day. The characters are lovable rascals and there is a wonderful sense of goodness and right that they embody. Waiting for another Bob and Nikki book is like when I was a kid and we were waiting on a new Alan Dean Foster or Robert Aspirin book. Mr. Boyd makes you like and relate to the characters and best of all, even though there are some adult themes in the books, I would gladly let my daughters read these, my oldest now and the other once she gets to eighth grade :)

Many plots in motion, but all are inching forward...

Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2022

Verified Purchase

Plenty of suspense and deep planning building up to the resolution of an ominous problem... pretty much the norm for the series. Satisfying, but moving very slowly on the big scope issues. The daily routine is starting to repeat somewhat predictably so it might be time to drive a little harder on significant progress. Still a relaxing in bed read, unlikely to produce unpleasant dreams. Start from the beginning of the series to have a chance of understanding where the story is at this point.

Disappointed

Reviewed in Australia on September 1, 2021

Verified Purchase

Probably the better oF the series since Book 13, they have all been readable but I felt there was something missing but couldn't put my hand on it. Will probably be the only one I will re-read after 13. Maybe 14 to 19 will be easier to listen to than re-read. Let's have something interesting happen in 20. We all know the fleet is heading back to Earth. Let's hope they have a better outcome then the last time.

Bobs saucer repair series recommended

Reviewed in Australia on September 6, 2021

Verified Purchase

I've read this entire series and have throughly enjoyed the ever present wit, mannerisms of The downtoearth charactors. The story's organically growing of the unique universe' well still managing a constant case of a family bond with all of the entire ships crewinvolved. Travelling around to find large "fires ' to put out Bob dishes out both justice and kindness all the way. a great read and stretch for the imagination.

Great, enjoyable read

Reviewed in Canada on October 1, 2021

I have read every book in this series (and listened to all the available audio books). I thoroughly enjoyed every book. The level of story telling has improved with each new book.
Where/when is book 20.
Thank you Jerry Boyd

Good book not a lot really happening but enjoyable nun the less. There was one bit a conversation at the start of the book that seemed to be out of place when later parts were read.

Good to have a question mark filled in the story arc. Story is solid enough but looking forward to the next book.
