Summary
What would you do if you found a spaceship? Would you call the government, would you pretend you never saw it, or would you keep it a secret? What would you do with it? Use it to gallivant around the galaxy, conquer Earth, get filthy rich, or try to improve life on Earth? Listen along and find out how Marc works to convert Earth into a spacefaring world capable of defending itself and of being united as it meets the other civilizations in the galaxy. He and his brother start planning their next steps, but the one they don’t know how to prepare for is the arrival of Marc’s 12-year-old daughter. She comes to spend the summer with her father. She’s very smart and extremely curious.
Marc and his crew need to accomplish all this without tipping off the US government and before the Paraxeans come looking for their spaceship. But they have help, the ship’s AI is on their side, and she’s smart.
Starship Sakira is the first book in the exciting new adventure series Delphi in Space.

Fantastic listen
The preview for this book sounded interesting but having listen to book 1 I found it a very well written storyline and well read by the narrator. So much so that I imediatly bought the next two books in the series that are available on Audible. I do hope that they produce the rest of the series.

Too good! Kept me awake
Kudos for creating this completely believable, grounded world and adding enough sci-Fi elements to whet my whistle and keep me wanting more. I think I reset my sleep timer more times at night than during a working week during my time with this book. Anxious to continue the journey!

Ok but annoying bland narration
The book is really interesting but the narrator makes everything sound utterly dull it’s a real shame. She can’t even pronounce Antigua properly it’s pronounced antiga not antigwa

Not too bad.
Narration is a little flat but the story is good. Intrigued me enough to warrant a purchase of book two.

Couldnt appreciate the story due to horrible performance
This is probably the worst performance I’ve heard. Narrator seems to be bored and uninterested in both the story and her job in general.

Devil in the details part 1
I tried, I really tried.
Humans find a spaceship and begin to change the world. what an awesome premise.
It turned into A family of genius overachievers become billionaires, practice nepotism, play paintball, soccer, and deal with the dangerous road of those pesky anti capitalism rules such as labour laws and environmental preservation.
Meanwhile engage in Robin Hood tactics to extol their virtues, fight the good fight against the evil commies and their alien ways.
It feels like a factual emotionless account of how the hyper rich live and how trickle-down economies work wrapped up within the power of a 13 year old who can't seem to fail at anything despite being friends with people her own age, oh and being sensitive to the ptsd of her rape victim friend.. can be cured or just erased with medication indeed.
All spoken in a emotion free monotone.
What a shame

OK, needs improvement.
The basis was good but for an empire-building book, little happens in the book and it goes into details about paintball games and poker games. not happy with the progress.
