ARMADA

Cline's gaming-centric story, chock-full of pop references, is keenly executed by Wil Wheaton. In the midst of an alien assault, with humankind on the brink of doom, members of the gaming generation come to the rescue by playing the most epic star-fighter game ever. Unknowingly, Zack Lightman has been training for this moment his whole life. Wheaton's skill as a narrator continues to grow, and it's clear he enjoys once more finding himself in a sci-fi world. Overall, the production offers an engaging story with a narrator who hits the marks for the varied quirky characters. L.E. © AudioFile 2015, Portland, Maine [Published: AUGUST 2015]
