Axis Audiobook

" supposed to be a sequel to Spin, but it does not follow any of the characters from Spin - just later events in the same universe. So far, not so good... (Tune in for more details once/if I finish it.) "

" Excellent science fiction--but read Spin first, as this is a sequel to that novel. "

" well. I have to read the last one now, but this one was not as good as the first. the series is in danger of becoming to abstract for my liking...but i will soldier on. "

" Axis is the sequel to Spin, which I thought was phenomenal. Axis was good, but it just couldn't compare. I hope Vortex, the third in the series, blows me away like Spin did! "

" amazing book... I'm not usually a big SF fan, but this is one of the best books (science fiction or not) I've ever read. great storytelling, character development, plot, and flow. "

" A serviceable story but a far cry from the brilliance of Spin. "

" I enjoyed the characters but I just wish there was more to this story. It had so much potential to make this a great adventure but the government gives up as soon as the fourths start to run and your favorite characters all die off so easily. I had this feeling that he was going somewhere great with this but just gave up and decided to just end the story. I still enjoyed this read, maybe another book may come out to take on another perspective of the Hypotheticals. Maybe a prequel, the beginning of the Hypotheticals or another civilazation that inhabits another world through one of the many arches. One can only hope. "

" A good book but not great. Enjoyed Spin better. Will finish reading the series. "

" Fast read, it was ok. "

" Not as good as "Spin," but it still holds its own. If you liked "Spin" you will like "Axis." It will leave you wondering what is up next for the next installment "Vortex." "

" Def not as good as Spin. But like continued exploration of idea of nature of AI intelligence, esp whether it is "godlike" or not (does it have a collective purpose?). "

" A very solid follow-up to Spin. Pretty solid plot, decent character development and actions. "

" this book was ok, but nowhere near as good as its prequel. a little disappointed. "

" Okee vervolg op Spin. Die vond ik toch beter. "

" I read this because Spin was so good. This book was no where near as good, it is a sequel though all new characters (well mostly). It just doesn't have the magic idea Spin had and that disappoints. "

" I liked it well enough but... what just happened? I'm getting a little fed up with the Hypotheticals and the lack of answers. I guess that's the point, but it feels a bit like the 3rd season of Lost. Spin (its predecessor) had more focus, and worked as a stand-alone book. "

" Not as incredible as the first book in the series, but still pretty good. Ended a bit abruptly, which might just be setup for the third book. "

" Not quite as amazing as the first as most of the concepts that made the first book so great are continued here. It is more of a story set in a science fiction universe than a sci-fi book, and that's a good thing. It continues the arc of the first book and answers more questions than it raises. "

" Ok follow up to Spin. We'll see if there is a 3rd and it delivers. "

" A sort of sequel to spin with more action and consideration of what it means to be human and to love. "

" I would give this a 4.5 if the star system allowed for it. So good! I liked it even better than Spin. Toward the end, incredible alien imagery, mystery, beauty, and no predictable outcomes. "

" Good sequel, but near as good as Spin. After identifying with the characters in Spin, I had a hard time with the new characters in Axis at first. "

" Nowhere near as profound or mind-boggling as "Spin", this sequel is more of a quick adventure romp in the universe of its predecessor. Ultimately little is learned about the Hypotheticals, and although Wilson's prose is as good as ever, the story is quickly forgettable. "

" Great book. Can't wait for the sequel (Vortex). "

" Not as good as Spin. This felt cobbled together and poorly thought out. I hoped for much, much more. "

" This was the Spider-Man 2 of this series: a lot of talk about feelings and relationships, not much action. "

" Not as good as the first book in the series (called Spin), but still very interesting. Can't wait for the third one to come out this summer. "

" I just read this in preparation for the third book, really. I knew it wasn't going to be terribly exciting. It was a little more boring than I expected. "

" As good as Spin was, this was not. Took me forever to finish and didn't enjoy it at all. "

" Not as good as the first book of the series. But, still readable. "

" Nice sequel to Spin. Entertaining, thought provoking not deep but galactic scale... "

" The sequel to "Spin". Pretty awesome book, though I preferred its predecessor. "

" this book was ok, but nowhere near as good as its prequel. a little disappointed. "
