The Rookie

OK now THAT was fun! If you enjoy Sci-Fi and football this would be a good one for you. I love the alien worlds and cultures shown. Watching the Rookie become a leader was equally enjoyable. I especially loved that he got over his ego and racism and learned to appreciate the different alien races.

It was a little too much on the technical side for me with all the player and team stats but I'm sure the hardcore football lovers would enjoy that.

I don't know that I will continue this series anytime soon but it's certainly not off the table! I am still not sure how I ended up with this on my shelf

I didn't know what I would think of a sci-fi book that was so solidly sports themed. It was a clever genre mashup. Great care and effort were put into the audiobook, too. I'm interested to see what happens with the next book.
