☆☆☆☆☆5 out of 5 stars audiobook review: Wonderfully witty.
What a delightful book! The characters are thoroughly engaging (Kate and Jen are my favourites), the mystery is exciting, the romance between Kate and Todd is adorable, and the humour is wonderfully witty. Christina Delaine nails the narration, as always.

I listen to #Audiobooks at night as I go to sleep. I’ve migrated the collection I’ve built up over the years to a self-hosted AudioBookShelf server. There are several AWESOME clients available for ABS with great bedtime listening features.
However, I also have access to a couple good #libraries via Libby. Great content available, but the Libby app is atrocious, particularly at bedtime.
I haven’t found any way to listen to Libby content with another client. Anyone know of a way?

An Australian con woman discovers a billionaire is involved in human trafficking while searching through his files. Her background prevents her from going to the authorities, instead she decides to attempt to rescue the victims by infiltrating Tyler’s sordid parties as a guest. What follows is an extreme and eye opening journey through the dark bowels of power, wealth and depravity. Orgies, hazing rituals, the threat of personal harm and extreme risk become her world. Your feedback is appreciated! I am still trying to learn how to navigate this writing game, any help would be great!

Book Review: The Zorg by Siddharth Kara
Author: Siddharth Kara
Title: The Zorg: A Tale of Greed and Murder That Inspired the Abolition of Slavery
Narrator: Dion Graham
Publication Info: MacMillan Audio, 2025
Summary/Review:
The Zorg is the name of a ship acquired by a Liverpool-backed syndicate involved in the transatlantic slave trade in 1781. This book details the horrific journey in which the Zorg set off from Accra across the Middle Passage with 442 enslaved Africans on board. Despite knowing the cruelty and deprivations of slave ships, Kara’s visceral description of the conditions for the enslaved people is shocking. This journey is even worse due to the gross incompetence of the understaffed crew. The ship’s captain was actually a surgeon with no sailing experience, and his illness plus navigational errors lead to a total breakdown of command on the ship.
When the ship’s supply of water was close to exhaustion, the ship’s crew threw 130 of the enslaved people overboard to die. We know the details of this atrocity because the ship’s owners made an insurance claim on the dead Africans, which lead to a series of court cases. Olaudah Equiano, a free Black abolitionist, brought news of the massacre to the attention of prominent white abolitionist Granville Sharp. With publicity from Sharp, the Zorg massacre became a cause célèbre in Britain and drew more people into the abolition movement.
I was not familiar with the history of the Zorg before I read this book. It is an unsettling book to read but I think an important work. Additionally, has done a lot of research that offers new insights in details of what happened on the ship, and the anonymous sources in the case.

I've finished: Terra Nullius by Claire G. Coleman
I couldn't put Terra Nullioius down. The compelling characters and their struggle to survive kept me glued to my headphones.
I did not read the blurb and enjoyed the transition from the historical to the futuristic section of the novel.
My enjoyment was marred by the constant reminders of the authors intent. Coleman hits the reader repeatedly over the head with a 5kg hammer: THIS IS A COMPARISON BETWEEN THE COLONIAL TREATMENT OF THE AUSTRALIAN ABORIGINAL PEOPLE TO AN ALIEN INVASION.
There are allot of clues in the story itself and a couple of explicit references would have been enough.
But, I must repeat, I really enjoyed this novel.

Only 2 to 5% of the world's books exist as audiobooks, and far fewer outside English. The cost that kept them rare just collapsed. The catch: most of the new AI audio is careless and flat.
