About this listen

The galaxy has seen great empires rise and fall. Planets have shattered and been remade. Amongst the ruins of alien civilisations, building our own from the rubble, humanity still thrives. And there are vast fortunes to be made, if you know where to find them....

Captain Rackamore and his crew do. It's their business to find the tiny, enigmatic worlds which have been hidden away, booby-trapped, surrounded with layers of protection - and to crack them open for the ancient relics and barely remembered technologies inside. But while they ply their risky trade with integrity, not everyone is so scrupulous.

Adrana and Fura Ness are the newest members of Rackamore's crew, signed on to save their family from bankruptcy. Only Rackamore has enemies, and there might be more waiting for them in space than adventure and fortune - the fabled and feared Bosa Sennen in particular.

Revenger is a science fiction adventure story set in the rubble of our solar system in the dark, distant future - a tale of space pirates, buried treasure and phantom weapons, of unspeakable hazards and single-minded heroism...and of vengeance....

Entertaining quasi-steampunk space pirate yarn, geared slightly to a younger audience (teens). Still good fast paced fun

Love Alastair Reynolds and this book doesnt disappoint. Couldnt finish Blue Remember Earth, really didnt like it but Revenger is an easy and interesting read. Not a huge fan of female narraters, but Clare Corbett really suits the character and makes this story pop.....like the baubles really!

Really enjoyable story and performance. the only problem I had was the voice volume was way too low, even with it turned up.

Excellent

the narrator masterfully portrayed the characters. The story was at Reynolds standard of execlence, if not raising the bar further. I'm not sure if it was the audio or the code used but some of the sentences seemed to lose volume right at the last syllable. however, this did not distract from the story.

narration... how it changes books
