I was thinking, and I probably mentioned it before, but Miles really grounds X as a character. Smith is able to write these sprawling books that take place literally all over the world over nine books and each one of them leans perfectly on the books that came before but also forges their own ways. Are of them are just *chef’s kiss* perfect. The characters, the emotions, the settings, the battles.
Every piece of it was perfect or darn near perfect. I hate feeling like these books just keep getting better and better but Smith’s writing just absolutely shines in a book like this. Now that I’ve gone on for longer than most reviews already are. It’s a small thing but genuinely makes these audiobooks so much more enjoyable. In the older books places like Florida (we say “floor-duh” and Bray pronounced it Floor-e-dah”) but in this one, since they’re visiting Australia – he said “Aus-trah-lia” instead of “Aus-trail-ya”). The people in these stories have been flying for so long that places that we call would change into a more phonetic way of speaking. Then I thought “how come there aren’t more Post-Apocalyptic books that take place there? One of my favorite parts of the audiobooks for this series is Bray’s randomness to the words. I never thought about how crazy Australia would be until I read How Green This Land, How Blue This Sea by Mira Grant. Hell Divers 9 takes us to what’s already the most dangerous place in the world, Australia. The Hell Divers series always leaves me with this insane feeling of “Woah, what was that” in the best possible way. Or to all-out war.Įasily my favorite series, maybe of all-time. But turning back to the Vanguard Islands without a new food source could doom all humanity to starvation. As losses from both missions mount, the king wonders if finding this place is worth the cost.
