This was such a neat story. It took a bit to get into, as the story doesn't follow a directly linear path, but once I did (about the time they get to the other planet with the elves) it was wonderful. The characters are well-developed and the worldbuilding, where needed, was really good. I also kind of liked that one character never gets a name (Jack@$$ doesn't count) and is simply referred to as "The Man" because it kind of reminded me of the Doctor in Doctor Who.
The narration was ... okay. This was my second time listening to this narrator and I can say that this one was much better than the first. However, it still was not great. The narrator, to my ear, seems to speak as if having recovered from a speech; there's a slight slurring to the words. It is slight, and others may not notice it at all, but it's enough to confirm for me that I do not care for books narrated by her.
As a result, while I may read this story in the future, because I did enjoy the story, I will not be listening to the audiobook again.

This was a really fun and uplifting story.
I enjoyed the depth of the main character and how real she felt. She had emotions, issues, character and an array of personality.
It was well written and I enjoyed world this author has created! Im excited to read book #2

Recently I got my hands on the Science Fiction novel "Panglossian: Quasi-Daisy" penned by the author M K Bingman. Main character of the story is Faith. She is a junior in high school who is about to graduate. At the graduation ceremony, Faith didn't have any friends. Faith's life took a turn when she saw The Man. She asked The Man to run because she saw an unhappy creature coming towards them. The Man told her that this creature is Goobert. It usually lives on the sixth plane of existence in the third realm. When Faith unintentionally killed Goobert, she was marked for life with that little guy's curse.
In the Home Realm, The Man told Miss Faith that it's his birth place and she is an anomaly. The Great Powers Be willed her into existence for some reason. Story picked pace and become interesting when Faith and the Man travelled to the Kalolo Embassy’s, Planet Quii. Quii is the home to Rymuth Elves race. Grab a copy of this book and read it for yourself to know about the adventures and challenges that Faith encounters.
Story involves the use of technology. The Man communicated with Miss Faith using telepathy. Faith's character is bold. She uses very strong and foul language most of the time. Cover photo of the book looks nice. Narration is smooth and I was easily able to follow the story. If you love reading sci-fi stories then go ahead with this one.
