About this listen
Gateway to the Galaxy, Part II contains Face Toward Enemy (book 4), Rise Up (book 5), and Do or Die (book 6 of the series).
He saved the universe from chaos. And it'll come back to haunt him.
Just when you thought it was safe to explore the universe, a new enemy emerges from the darkness. You know the deal with these things: someone's always ready to put on the gauntlet and do the finger snap.
All Frank wants to do is rebuild the Arilion Order and eat tacos. No such luck. A new enemy is going to give Frank and the rest of Marine Space Corps-1 a run for their money.
A ghost from Frank's past has returned, and with his Arilion powers tested, this mission will be his greatest challenge as a man, as a leader, and as a Marine.
It's time for a reckoning.
A swashbuckling space adventure in the likes of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ A Princess of Mars and the action found in JN Chaney’s Renegade Star.

Story
The New Arilion Knights contains books 1-3 of the series. Emma’s problems go far beyond carb-counting mean girls. With nonhuman-like pointed ears and a stuttering problem brought on by anxiety, she’s one of the few who know Earth’s about to be blindsided with annihilation. What if the only way to save her home is to secretly join the academy of intergalactic warriors? And the only way to save her dad is to betray him? It’s up to this wallflower to stop bullying from going extraterrestrial.

Story
In the 20th century Earth sent probes, transmissions, and welcoming messages to the stars. Unfortunately, someone noticed. The Galactics arrived with their battle fleet in 2052. Rather than being exterminated under a barrage of hell-burners, Earth joined their vast Empire. Swearing allegiance to our distant alien overlords wasn't the only requirement for survival. We also had to have something of value to trade, something that neighboring planets would pay their hard-earned credits to buy. As most of the local worlds were too civilized to have a proper army, the only valuable service Earth could provide came in the form of soldiers....

My name is Kazimir Wolfe. People call me "Kaz", except they don’t. I never use my real name; it’s too dangerous, for me and for anyone I meet. I’m on the run from the law, who think I killed my aunt, and from whoever did kill her, because they want to finish the job. So, I move around a lot, working construction or whatever job I can find. It’s a lonely life. I don’t let anyone get close...people who get close to me end up dead. Why? I’m a wizard. The world’s only wizard, as far as I know.

Cole Riker is a Slip Runner. A contractor tasked with finding alien salvage in exchange for credits. For an ex-smuggler like Cole, there’s a catch: Don’t break the terms of parole. That means doing things by the book. Find salvage, turn it in, get paid. But everything changes when a retrieval mission lands him in a previously unknown sector. There, he finds the material he’s been sent to recover, along with something more. A brand-new form of ancient alien life.

mash up
so if you like Stargate, Green Lantern, and fantasy with a dash of pop culture references then totally grab all the books. You'll enjoy them all day long. one downside now I may have missed it when I read the books the first time. There is some character interactions that are hinted at and told about but never seen.

"NOT WORTH YOUR TIME & EFFORT"
Scott Aiello's voice and horrible sound effects destroy the authors' work. His OOH-RAHS sound like a millennial's cry of self pity and sorrow. Oh, and Scott, the word is "EXECUTIVE OFFICER" for 2nd in command, not "Execution Officer". You are a damned fool, Aiello.
There is not enough words in the english language too describe how shitty this book is and how stupid Aiello actually is, aswell.

I would frag Frank
The first book was fun, I really enjoyed it. Part 2 is okay, but I want to kill Frank! Frank has to be one of the worst officers/leaders ever. He makes the worst decisions as a military leader. It almost seems like the writers of Prometheus wrote part 2! How many times will he let the bad guy get away?
