About this listen
A Closed and Common Orbit: Booktrack Edition adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience!
Lovelace was once merely a ship's artificial intelligence. When she wakes up in an new body, following a total system shutdown and reboot, she has to start over in a synthetic body, in a world where her kind are illegal. She's never felt so alone.
But she's not alone, not really. Pepper, one of the engineers who risked life and limb to reinstall Lovelace, is determined to help her adjust to her new world. Because Pepper knows a thing or two about starting over.
Together, Pepper and Lovey will discover that, huge as the galaxy may be, it's anything but empty.
Booktrack is an immersive format that pairs traditional audiobook narration to complementary music. The tempo and rhythm of the score are in perfect harmony with the action and characters throughout the audiobook. Gently playing in the background, the music never overpowers or distracts from the narration, so listeners can enjoy every minute. When you purchase this Booktrack edition, you receive the exact narration as the traditional audiobook available, with the addition of music throughout.

officially my favorite series
The world building and characters are both so lovably set up. I could spend forever looking around this world, taking in various different societies with their sights and colours.
There's also two storylines, both equally interesting and well read. Good pacing too, and I really enjoy the way this was set to background noise.
As with a lot of sci-fi, at somepoint you'll run into something with a chat like set-up and a lot of numbers. those bits are always a bit of a struggle in audio books I think. but this one only had very small bits of that.
wholeheartedly recommend!

A fascinating trip to another world
I love this book and the characters. A fascinating world to step into. Contains great allegories to inter-human conflicts and cultural awareness.
The sound cast adds to the atmosphere. Does not overwhelm.
Can definitely recommend.
And on another positive note compared to the first book, the narrator has learnt that they are artificial gravity nets rather than antigravity nets (by the end at least)

Booktrack worth it
The sound works even at 1.75speed, never overpowers performance.
Reading and story both excellent

Lovely, gently paced sci-fi
Took me a bit longer to get into than the first book but the pay off was worth it. It’s a very ordinary view of extraordinary things and I find that a relaxing listen. Had a couple of gotcha moments and the last third of the booked sped the pace up. Don’t come expecting lasers and space battles. But if you’re interested in a fresh take on feelings and purpose this is a great setting to explore them.
