Maybe the best of the series
First off let me say read the books in order, don't start here. While the author does give a lot of background and set up you really do yourself a disservice if you start here.
With that said I believe in many ways this is the best books of the series (at least through the first 5 or so). Many of the characters really hit their stride. This book in many ways is the basis for major plot events of the books to come.
While it does set the stage it never wastes your time or bores you. As with the past books there is action, and drama with tons of politics and universe building.
As has been the case all along Snyder continues with his A game and helps bring the story to life.
Overall a really enjoyable story, one well worth listening to.

Confusing start, awesome ending
Ms. Rusch's 3rd book in this series, and there are so many things going on, it's hard to figure out what happened and why, and not much explanation for the opening 6 or so chapters.
The rest of the book plays much better, and wraps up with an awesome ending.
Jay Snyder's performance brings a 3-star book up to a 4.

Best so far
I really liked this one. So far it is the best book in the series. The tension between Noelle and Flint continues to grow as they try to sort out how they feel about each other.
I liked the mystery aspect and the depth in which it was explored by Flint. His honor and ability to sleep at night are seriously on the line. It is this aspect that made the story interesting to me, I could use a lot more of that type of story. Action, conflict, mystery and more action.
The politics in this book did get on my nerves; I could do without all the back and forth about alien politics.

Confusing start, great middle, weak ending
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
Rusch does a great job in developing her characters and the story line is compelling and interesting. The narrator does a good job with the different voices. The beginning was a bit confusing, but the end was done in a rather fast manner and left you hanging with a lot of questions and loose ends; which is too bad as the novel itself was very good.
Would you be willing to try another book from Kristine Kathryn Rusch? Why or why not?
I will try book 4 and hope the ending will be better.
Have you listened to any of Jay Snyder’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
He is a good narrator with different voices.
Did Consequences inspire you to do anything?
Not really

So interesting and fast paced.
This series is so interesting. Everything makes sense even though it is science fiction. The descriptive writing helps you to imagine what everything looks like and how things work. I drove 268 miles last night and never got bored.

It keeps getting better!
I find this book to be the most interesting in the series. It kept me guessing all the way to the end.

Sci fi mystery
I have read all of this series. Hard to put down. You can see facts and thoughts of characters as the mystery is revealed. Often two stories going on but are connected. Well written and narrated.

Airless isn't Zero-G
A character is going into a section of a moon dome that might have lost atmosphere. She is told that she will need people with zero-g experience. They will not be leaving the surface of the moon. Gravity will be about one-sixth Earth's, not zero. I have enjoyed the Disappeared books, but this kind of carelessness is inexcusable.

An ethical detective
Set in a science fiction universe, the ethical detective appeals to an historical ideal.
A person with the conscience to stand up
For the "most abused among us" rings a chord
That is missing in the far right stories consumed by the masses in military SCIFI today.
