About this listen

None of them wanted to leave Earth. It might have been nightmarish, but it was all they knew.

Gary wanted to concentrate on his exams, in hopes of leaving the CityBlock and its bullies far behind. Kailee wanted to become an actress. Darrin merely wanted to live. But when the three teenagers win a competition, they find themselves taking the trip of a lifetime, a voyage to a colony world where they can see how the colonists live.

Meridian is very different from the dark and dismal cityblocks, a place where they can make a new beginning. But it also houses dangers, dangers that their education on Earth didn't even begin to prepare them to face, dangers governed by the cold equations of survival. And when disaster strikes, they find themselves forced to fight for their lives - or die, alone and unloved, thousands of light years from home.

An objectivist morality tale

If you could sum up Reality Check in three words, what would they be?

Heroic, didactic, entertaining

What other book might you compare Reality Check to, and why?

Fountainhead for teenagers

Which character – as performed by Jeffrey Kafer – was your favourite?

They were all slightly one dimensional, I assume that was intentional though and the value was in it's moral lesson about the flawed nature of humanity

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

If I had the time, yes

Good Storyline

Another change of pace. This was an interesting break from the main theme and could well be listened to as a stand alone book. Again, well done.

One Of The Best So Far

Didn't expect to enjoy this one going by one or two of the reviews but it turned out to be one of the best in the series. Its also very thought provoking.

Really slow story

I was looking forward to reading this book as a gone through the rest of the series but I was very disappointed in how slow the story one for long normally I would go through a book like this into there is this one has taken me nearly two weeks to get through because I kept on getting bored I'm going doing something else.
Not a book I would recommend.

Thank you audible for credits

This is not a bad book, but it certainly isn't on par with the other books in this series. To me at least this book seems to drag at parts. That is at least until towards the end where a lot seems to happen in a relatively short amount of the book.
This book is ridiculously overpriced especially for the amount of time of audio that you get for your money. But as always the narrator is pretty good, but he does better at subtlety than distinct accents.
