Ocean's Echo is a stand-alone romantic space adventure, set in the same universe as Everina Maxwell's hit debut, Winter's Orbit.

When Tennal—a rich socialite, inveterate flirt and walking disaster—is caught using his telepathic powers for illegal activities, the military decides to bind his mind to someone whose coercive powers are strong enough to control him.

Enter Lieutenant Surit, the child of a disgraced general. Out of a desperate need to restore a pension to his other parent, Lieutenant Surit agrees to be bound to Tennal and keep him conscripted in the army, a task that seems impossible even for someone with Surit's ability to control minds.

Tennal just wants to escape, but Surit isn't all that he seems. And their bond may just be the key to their freedom.

I loved this! What a great story and what great characters! Really well read too. Thank you for hours of absorption!

Highly recommended

I nearly didn't get this because of some complaints about the accent the narrator put on for some of the characters and thank God I didn't listen. I'm guessing the accent throwing people off is the non-british one and honestly the narrator does such a good job in my opinion. So, is it the narrator or do you just not want to hear "accented" (it's all accented for god's sake) English?. Think on that.

For anyone on the fence, get this book. It was a great listen and well worth the credit/run time. Worst case? Return it. It's really not the end of the world.

5/5 would recommend

Very interesting relationship between main characters. Good to learn more about the world introduced in book one. Overall I thought it was a bit too long and my interest strayed a bit towards the end. Hope there will be more books set in this world. The narrator was very good but his pronunciation of ocean was weird and threw me out of the story every time he said it

I really like this book. I've listened to it several times, and enjoy it every time. The world building and character development are pretty rich - complex people existing in believable ways in a complex universe. I enjoy both the continued elements from the first book, and the very different setting.

I think the narration works really well. I've actually found his RP accent off-putting enough to stop listening to a book before, but I think his voice and accents are perfect for both this book and the first, given the characters and contexts of their lives.

Great Listen

I disagree with people saying the narrator was a poor choice. His change of tone kept me really interested in the story. Only thing is I don't think Surit's accent was necessary and was confused why it was the same as Jainan's from Winters Orbit. But for me it didn't affect the experience at all and found the narrator good. Very good story and characters and lovely chemistry between Surit and Tenor.🙂

Very good
