I don't think I will partaking of any more Galaxy's edge novels. Last was very disappointing. It was as if they cobbled together a bunch of short stories without any flow. And then over an hour of "discussion" at the end just to add to the length of the book. Can't see using a credit for this when you can get almost twice as much for the same credit with other books.

The daughter of a Legion war hero, fighting was in Andien Broxin's blood. But the battles Republic marines face on strange and alien worlds are a far cry from the vaunted, brutal, no-holds-barred conflicts fought at the edge of the galaxy by the elite legionnaires. Until a devastating war erupts right in the Republic’s stellar backyard. Newly stationed on a mid-core planet being harassed by terrorist revolutionaries, Andien and her fellow “hullbusters” find themselves right in the middle of a desperate fight for survival.

Overall very good with just a couple of exceptions

I really like getting the back story on these characters.
In fact, would have liked more, but that is probably coming.
More books = more $$$
Only exception to good narration was the cringeworthy “Cores”man instead of coreman
But could have been worse could have been corpsman. Heck even pres Obama got that wrong.
So that is ok
Lt Owens character may never forgive the attempt at an accent however, that was tough to get through 😀
But I liked it for the good story.

They promised him one weekend a month. The House or Reason swore the 9th would never leave their gentle homeworld. But after Kublar, things changed for Sergeant Fetch and the Caledonian Reserve Legion Corps. Thrown into a meat grinder conflict in a desperate bid to hold the line, it doesn’t matter whether you’re reserve or active, only that you kill and survive.

Sorry but I just couldn’t appreciate this story as well as all the others I’ve listened to
Rummel does his usual good job but when I hear him I think I will always hear BlackJack

As a crumbling Galactic Republic falls to the relentless assault of a merciless foe, so begins the rise of an enigmatic emperor intent on saving a corrupt galaxy-spanning civilization from itself…and from something much darker that lies beyond the reaches of the known. Just as the reins of power fall into his iron-fisted grasp, an assassination attempt by a hidden cabal within his own inner circle jeopardizes every plan he has set in motion for his Dark Legion, his Imperial Navy, and his ultimate conquest of the stars. But the assassins have no idea who they're actually dealing with.

What Star Wars should have been...
Reviewed: 12-17-18
A very complex and riveting storyline that will have you wanting to go back and listen again, to the other books in the series, to see what you might have missed the first time.
My only criticism is there are a few parts that noticeably borrow images from the Star Wars universe. They are not needed. This universe can stand on its own very well, thank you.
I have thoroughly enjoyed the series and can’t wait for more. Great character development and a wonderfully crafted storyline allow this series to take its place as one of my all time favorites.

If Star Wars and Dune had a baby...
Reviewed: 04-28-18
Complex, but wonderfully listenable. Subtly nuanced throughout, when you finish you will immediately want to hear it again to pick up all the possible things you may have missed first time through.
This reminds me of the original Star Wars movie before the franchise began to be concerned more with marketing products than telling a story.
Compare to Expanse for a feel for the development of characters, you find out just enough to be interested but know that there has to be a great backstory. Well Done!

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 12,984
In the 25th century, humans have conquered space. The advent of faster-than-light travel has opened up hundreds of habitable planets for colonization, and humans have exploited the virtually limitless space and resources for hundreds of years with impunity. So complacent have they become with the overabundance that armed conflict is a thing of the past, and their machines of war are obsolete and decrepit. What would happen if they were suddenly threatened by a terrifying new enemy?

I am usually quite critical with the reviews that I have written, but in this case I can find little fault.
The writing and performance were great and the story was well done.
Wish it was longer. It will be hard to wait for the sequel.

A military unit is thrust back into Paleolithic times with only their guns and portable hardware. Ten soldiers on convoy in Afghanistan suddenly find themselves lost in time. Somehow they arrived in Earth's Paleolithic Asia. With no idea how they arrived or how to get back, the shock of the event is severe. They discover groups of the similarly displaced: imperial Romans, Neolithic Europeans, and a small cadre of East Indian peasants.

...if your a fan of scifi docudramas without any significant character development. Think of it as a cross between Jean Auel's Painted Caves and a Ken Burns PBS special. If you've ever been to one of those movies that you kept waiting for it to "get good" and that time never arrived then well this is the literary equivalent. I will not even mention the character from Queens with the southern accent. Don't listen to this book around the kids either because every other sentence was interspersed with needless colorful language...I guess to make the characters sound more military? I will say that it filled the time on my way back and forth to work for a considerable period so I gave it 3 stars overall out of consideration for the authors feelings and what had to be a good bit of research time spent compiling some of the details.
