Pell's Station, orbiting the alien world simply called Downbelow, had always managed to remain neutral in the ever escalating conflict between The Company, whose fleets from Earth had colonized space, and its increasingly independent and rebellious colony worlds. But Pell's location - - on the outer edge of Earth's defensive perimeter - makes her the focal point in the titanic battle of colony worlds fighting for independence.

What made the experience of listening to Downbelow Station the most enjoyable?
The world is much more carefully detailed than most novels, and in many cases it's the circumstances that steal the scene. The chain of events feels a lot richer and a lot more real than is typical in a book. This is a world well imagined, and carefully thought out.What three words best describe Brian Troxell’s performance?
"Radio News Broadcaster". He reads the story almost like a documentary, which loans a very matter of fact aspect to the story and suits the subject matter quite well. His rendition of different character voices left something to be desired though, not horrible but not on par with everything else.Richly detailed worlds and well written hard scifi
