Publisher's summary
Trapped in a far-off galaxy, Liam Hoffen receives news that a massive Kroerak fleet has found its way to Earth. Knowing an invasion is imminent stuns our explorers, but there's nothing they can do when they discover the interplanetary Trans Loc system has been shut down to stem the tide of invading bugs.
As if things couldn't get worse, Intrepid is then seized by an overzealous alien government, and the crew is relegated to the backwater planet - Zuri. When a chance discovery that could end Earth's desperate war comes to light, our heroes find they will stop at nothing to return home. That is if there is anything left.
Blockade Runner, the eleventh installment of the Privateer Tales saga, is an exciting mix of fleet combat, mechanized infantry battles and non-stop space opera action. While this completes the Kroerak story arc, it exposes a new struggle against a corrupt government - the Confederation of Planets.

Story
In a galaxy where the fabric of reality can be bent and shaped by a privileged few, and almost any skill desired is a mere injection away, one young man is thrust into the fight of his life. Tane, a hydroponics farmer with some mad cereal crop gene-splicing skills, decides to get chipped. The operation gives him full control over his autonomic nervous and endocrine systems, plus the ability to install custom memories. All seems well until a couple of days later aliens come knocking at his door. And they aren't the friendly type.

Story
They hunt us. They bomb our worlds for target practice. A star cluster in the constellation of Orion rotates once every 1,000 years. Those who rule there have an ancient tradition: When each cycle ends, they train their fleets by spilling the blood of lesser beings. The enemy fleets are coming again. In response, the Rebel Worlds gather their starships to face the terrifying threat, and this time humanity is asked to stand with them. The last time they considered Earth, Vikings in longboats were raiding English coastlines. Today, we're less primitive. Today, we're a target.

Next in Privateer Tales Series
The next audiobook in the Privateer Tales Series finds Liam and crew traveling to another galaxy and meeting alien species that are members of the Confederation of Planets. They end up trapped there and it seems like they will have to make a new life. The Kroerak are still a grave problem and humanity needs the help of Loose Nuts. There is a suspenseful sequence involving mechanized armor and a very surprising ending. Well worth the listen. As usual Mikael Naramore does an excellent job of narrating.

Glad HUD is not spelled out, anymore
Very eth·no·cen·tric, or species centric... dont get me wrong, an entertaining series, but the view point is of a horny YA.
Also the main character didn't have a problem with the idea of live-stock, until it was humans that were the live-stock.
The narrator is awsum, lots of cool voices, and is consistant.
Another gripe.. the main character willing takes damage, or has ship take damage, or crew take damage , like it makes him high & mighty, rather then be observant & strike 1st to keep crew safe

Not afraid to take things away
So far, the author has been good at adding advantages for the characters in one book and taking them away in the next. But, the reasons have always worked for the story.
I like the way the author writes stories with small stakes, or medium stakes. That leaves a lot of room for character moments, which the author writes well. The stakes get huge in this book, which usually compels a story to have more action moments. Still, The author managed to get character moments in there.

Great story However......
A great opera storyline except for the anticlimactic battle in the last 3 chapters.....the whole intergalactic struggle reduced to the last three chapters. Repair a battle damaged freighter in three hours and in deep space....sci-fi does require a certain suspension of belief but hey.......

Billions die and this is victory?
This has been a 5-star series so far, but this book displays a trend that I see in a number of series'; the author isn't content to create danger for a group of people you care about. Instead, he escalates the danger to the apocalyptic level, necessitating mass slaughter to impress upon the reader the seriousness of the situation. In this case, that means the death of a significant fraction of the population of the Moon and Earth. It's hard to view our heroes as being successful when even victory is catastrophe. None of this was really necessary; you can build as much tension with small dangers as you can with big ones.
And the motivation of the aliens is pretty silly. Why would an advanced, space-faring species not be able to feed itself without needing to cross interstellar distances to eat humans?
This book has dimmed my enthusiasm for the series; I'm going to try to pretend it didn't happen and hope the author returns to the previous formula.

Once Great Young Adult Series That's Out Of Ideas
What could Jamie McFarlane have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Ditch domestic violence as Tabby's "funny" personality trait. Immaturity, seething anger, and violence seem to be her only personality traits and this has gotten way old.
All of the aliens, especially the chicken-people are way too over the top.
Resurrect Liem's brains which seem to have died.
Have you listened to any of Mikael Naramore’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I've listened to the whole series so far and he always does a great job.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
I'm very disappointed in the writing. More than anything it made me think of Fonzie jumping the shark in a desperate attempt to reboot that series. Using stupidity and over the top chicken-people as plot devices brough shark jumping to mind.
Any additional comments?
I could not bring myself to finish finish this one.

Feminist propaganda
I started out listening to this series and I thought it was pretty good and that the characters were strong. a young man growing to be a man and doing heroic things and then all of a sudden little by little. this feminist theme kept coming up. how great the women are the how strong they are and the men are bumbling fools and idiots. why?
