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

The writing/storytelling itself is brilliant, but I dislike the narrator choice. The fake accents are distracting and really don't work.

I suggest reading it rather than listening to it, if you're able to.

Brilliant story, poor narrator

I loved the idea and all the complicated layers added in. I loved the final battles that are still rolling through my head, their sheer magnitude mind boggling. I loved the narrator who kept me hooked and made each character different enough that I could identify them by voice. all in all, I loved it!

Loved it!

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

This book and the writers previous book are firmly in my Favourites collection. The narrator is excellent : I Iike the way characters from different places and social classes have distinctive accents- that is one of the joys of audio books. I enjoyed the pace of narration and expressiveness of the reading.
The universe the story is set in is satisfyingly complex and plot is written skillfully enough to do without long sections of explanation. The characters come across as real people rather than stock figures. Complex politics, battles, coups, alien tech and mind modifications along with a sweet romance and a good dash of humour!

My third listen of the book and enjoyed as much as on the first listen.
