Publisher's summary

Following closely on the heels of Buccaneers, Liam and the crew of Hotspur take a much needed vacation on the tropical planet Curie, where they have nothing more to do than enjoy sun and sand. Trouble is never far away for this group of privateers, however, as a mysterious invitation to meet the reclusive Phillipe Anino interrupts their holiday. With more wealth than could be spent in 20 lifetimes, and access to illicit technology and information, Anino discovered a common interest with the crew - the fate of the Cape of Good Hope. Anino believes he has a way to recover the Cape's crew, but to do so will pit Liam and his friends against the powerful Belirand Corporation. Will the crew of Hotspur take the risky mission and become fugitives for the sake of 45 people they don't know? Or will they leave the people on board the Cape of Good Hope to die, alone in the deep dark of space? There's more at stake than any of them could guess. The actions of Liam and his friends could very well change the known universe forever.

getting worse

what started as a series I was really enjoying seems to be getting worse. not only does this captain pick his crew like a dynamic duo of Jeffrey Epstein and Bill Cosby, he picked the most annoying one as a mate. I'm listening to this series with my wife and it's funny, we have a running joke by asking each other "is she dead yet?" we can't figure out her purpose as a part of the crew other than annoying sex slave. she just seems like the kind of character who does things just to make life (and the story) suck more. she's always messing things up for the crew, acting inappropriately, assaulting people for no reason or just acting like a jackass. add in another character who a stand in for an auto pilot a fairly good egg head buddy and a security specialist who could do all of this herself and you have a crew of 1/2 good, 1/2 useless.
seriously all you need is the 2 partners and the security specialist and it's a much better story.
note to author, please stop with calling a HUD a H.U.D. we got it after the first reference and btw, you don't pull the trigger in semi auto mode once and "stitch shots uncontrollably in a line" it would fire 1 shot, 1 shot... out of your depth much?
the metallurgy stuff is accurate. the sword making is right on. (Have done a 80 fold blade myself at a forging class) but damn your other knowledge needs help bud. read other books before writing one. great music choices though.

The "0ut of character" ground on me.

The forcing of situations to fit the story arc, & the actions main characters not fitting who they are... start to grind..
Whats I like about this series is that I can listen while doing other things, its not so complicated that I have to give it all my attention.

stories getting better

Still a little too much of the Yahoo in the main character, but I'm glad I stuck to the series. it does grow on one.

I love this adventure

I have shared this story with everyone I know. It is even mostly clean enough to share with my kids. I love to get to know the crew and feel myself slipping into there world

One of the greatest sci-fi series out there.

This one takes a little while as he seemed to have combined one of his shorter "introduction of new characters" books into this but both story tracks of the main group and the new one are wonderful and enjoyable.

little let down on a lack of badass ship boarding but there's plenty of books to go!

It’s good for what it is.

I think it gets into the “love story” aspects but that’s ok. I think they make Hoffen predictably weak. I’ve read all the books to this point and the point where he goes nuts on the planet defense turret he is always weak and completely soft for such a bad ass! All in all I enjoy this series and will continue reading/listening

Another great installment of Privateer Tales

Loved listening to book 9 of Privateer Tales. Mikael Naramore is an excellent narrator and has become the voice of Liam to me. If you haven't listened to the other books in this series I would recommend them. The split narrative in this story is a departure for the series but introduces an important parallel storyline. The crew's actions have crossed a line and now everything has changed. They really had no option but to follow their convictions. At any cost this crew always does the right thing! Looking forward to the next audiobook!

Main character problems

Liam Hoffman is too cocky and is responsible for everyone’s death. Tabitha Masters is a raving bitch that should be locked up in a psych ward.
