Anchorite by Randall Garrett audiobook.
Genre: scifi
Randall Garrett sticks a sharp needle into our government and society in this wonderful story. He projects the current trends towards paternalistic government into the future. Yes, we have attained a world government and everyone is equal whether they want to be or not; everyone is taken care of no matter how incompetent, stupid or sleazy they are and everyone is out to undermine everyone else. The author predicts (sadly only too well) what the trends of today will eventually produce if allowed to continue. But wait! there is hope in the asteroid belt where jerks and incompetents are weeded out by hard physical laws and only those who possess common sense and the ability to actually survive are allowed to govern. But will the Earth government allow this to continue? Of course not. Listen to this great story to have a peek into the future.

A Spaceship Named McGuire by Randall Garrett audiobook.
Genre: scifi
Can a spaceship go crazy? Well, yes it can if it has a brain. And the new MG (magnetogravitic drive) experimental robot space ship does indeed have a 'brain'. Completely bewildered as to why the first six models of their supposedly perfect new ship model, the MG-YR, nicknamed the McGuire, have gone totally bonkers after activation and before they could ever be used, the company has called in the services of Daniel Oak. They suspect sabotage of course. Daniel Oak is the hard boiled private investigator with nerves of steel and a mind of the same substance. He is extremely expensive to hire but gets results; and he knows his way around crime, space ships and especially women. What he finds out is surprising!

Anything You Can Do by Randall Garrett audiobook.
Genre: scifi
When a damaged alien craft crashes into the Siberian tundra, the survivor is not a little green diplomat but the Nipe - a centipede-like being with terrifying strength, speed, and a mindset that treats humanity as both obstacle and resource. citeturn2view0 The first witness, forester Wang Kulichenko, can only watch in horror as the incident becomes the opening move in a global emergency. citeturn2view0 As the Nipe slips away and leaves a trail of panic, Earth's leaders face a grim calculation: killing the intruder might be easy, but letting it live could unlock knowledge that would reshape human science. citeturn0search2 Their solution is as audacious as it is ethically fraught - build a human who can match the alien. Inside a tightly controlled Institute, a handpicked candidate is pushed through extreme conditioning and biological enhancement, only to discover that becoming humanity's answer to the Nipe comes with unsettling gaps in memory, shifting loyalties, and the creeping fear that the project is changing more than just muscle and reflexes. citeturn2view0 As the world waits for its engineered champion to be ready, the central question sharpens: how far can humans remake themselves to win, without losing what makes them human in the first place?
