Legacy (Version 2)
James H. Schmitz
Read by Mark Nelson





Ancient living machines that after millennia of stillness suddenly begin to move under their own power, for reasons that remain a mystery to men. Holati Tate discovered them—then disappeared. Trigger Argee was his closest associate—she means to find him. She's brilliant, beautiful, and skilled in every known martial art. She's worth plenty—dead or alive—to more than one faction in this obscure battle. And she's beginning to have a chilling notion that the long-vanished Masters of the Old Galaxy were wise when they exiled the plasmoids to the most distant and isolated world they knew.... - Summary by Original text (8 hr 51 min)

Reviews
An interesting tale





Akku
It’s a longer story, it’s got a fair few twists and turns. I enjoyed it. It’s interesting to have a female protagonist in older sci-fi. The book has a few parts I felt I wasn’t sure what was going on, but I just let it roll and all was ok. Great reading as always.
Excellent story





A LibriVox Listener
The storytelling it slightly choppy in a few places, leaving you wondering what is going on until it's explained, but otherwise this is an excellent story. If would fit well among modern Sci-Fi stories such as The Fifth Element and the Valerian comics, and has aged very well.





Erster Zweiter
Great story with a thick plot, which would deserve a bit more details, and a little less speed (the story, not the narrator) to fully appreciate it. However, the sexism in this book and pathetic behavior towards and between women is something else... even for the early sixties.





Brett
Interesting book, hard to follow in some parts. However, as the story progresses it becomes easier to understand what is going on. I would recommend this to any science fiction fans. Definitely worth reading or listening too.

DRSmith
Excellent listen, with a story which zigs and zags through a veritable maze of out-of-universe experiences and human drama with a pinch of romance thrown in for fun... Recommended :)
good fun! and another excellent reading.

And another poke in the eye to all the stupid clowns who say that we never had "strong female characters" before they started whining about "representation".
A fun Sci-Fi tale





A LibriVox Listener
Well read as always by the great Mark Nelson. This story starts out slow but picks up speed. There are several clever little twists.
unique story





Phil Duffy
A different story than the usual sci-fi world conquering ones and good plot twists all the way through. And read very well as usual
