Joe Jameson, an adept narrator of the genre, highlights his characterization skills masterfully in this sci-fi audiobook. The second in the Protectorate series, the story is a slow burn of politics and interpersonal relationships. The plot, as conspiracy-filled as the first installment, thickens as Sanda strives to figure out where the coordinates in her mind lead and what they signify. Could they be the key to preventing war? Jameson is the perfect narrator for such a character-driven story. He gives individuals their own vocal personalities and flair. His performance is always recognizable, stylized almost to the point of distraction, but as he immerses listeners in this wide variety of characters, his ability to sound like a full cast guarantees to enthrall.

Dazzling space battles, intergalactic politics, and rogue AI collide in the second book in this epic space opera by award-winning author Megan O'Keefe.
Sanda and Tomas are fleeing for their lives after letting the most dangerous smartship in the universe run free. Now, unsure of who to trust, Sanda knows only one thing for certain -- to be able to save herself from becoming a pawn of greater powers, she needs to discover the secret of the coordinates hidden in her skull.
But getting to those coordinates is a problem she can't solve alone. They exist beyond a dead gate -- a Casimir gate that opened up into a dead-end system without resources worth colonizing, and was sealed off. To get through the dead gate, she needs the help of the enemy Nazca. But some Nazca are only interested in the chip in her head -- and they'll crack her open to get to it.
