About this listen

Mankind has awakened a monster. Humanity must put aside its own animosities…or face extinction.

The origins of human history begin to unravel as Earth learns they are not the only humans in the galaxy. The sudden discovery of humans living on multiple planets beyond their own has created more questions than it’s answered.

When humanity arrived on New Eden, a hideous new alien race, the Zodarks was discovered. In the face of an existential threat to their own survival, the historical warring factions of Earth will need to unite if they want to save themselves from extinction and understand the true origins on human history.

A fleet is built; an invasion force is assembled. Join our heroes as they lead humanity into the battle to conquer their first alien world and liberate previously unknown humans from the bondage of slavery and servitude.

Outstanding

This series is one of the best I’ve ever listened to. Great characters. Terrific story line. Plot is well thought out. I’m going to buy the next one right now.

Enjoyed it better...

I enjoyed the 1st book, as I found it to be an entertaining military sci-fi origin story. There were many dead end points in the plot, overall, but in general I thought it was a good effort. The sophomore entry did continue to deliver and expand the story, and I'm looking forward to the further entries to see where this story leads. Alot of details were added in the story, although there will need to be many more explanations and further developments to scope out the this universe. Overall, it is one of the better military sci-fi series I've read, and I've read many, lol.

Very good story

I loved it. I liked seeing humanity joining the greater galactic community. Step by step they earned their place in a new society.

great but missing part

good story but right near the end it jumps to an after action conversation about battling a star destroyer... without us being present for said battle.

Lame mixture of tech…

Aerial surveillance in the future, seems to be pre-2022… as a plot driver.

Lame

Not Sure but…

Enjoyed the first book, but the second book has taken a turn with strange stories of new aliens. Going to stay on with the next book and see how it works out. Hope it stays online with the first book and hope the story continues to be good….

Fun space military porn

This second installment in the New Republic series picks up right where the last left off. Mostly following the same characters. The story is full of fun space battles where the good guys kick butt and the bad guys are really bad. You won’t find much character development and the civilians are unbelievably absurd. But the performance is excellent.

A little predictable, but enjoyable

I really enjoyed this book, even though aspects of it were very predictable I enjoy cheering for the good guy. So it was a good story and narrator.

Good book but still highly derivative.

Another good book, but could use more creativity. The author is a great story teller, but he needs more original ideas. Not to give too many spoilers, but he basically introduced a technologically superior race that look similar to the classic alien Greys and have all of the technology of Star Trek including Transporters, Replicator, and Phasers without even bothering to change the names.

E - lectronic!!!!

The story is sweet and simple. I like stories where things go well, eventually. It moves quickly. I enjoy the narrators voice for the narration but he doesn’t have a lot of character voices. I think I can identify maybe three. It’s ok because there isn’t usually dialog between more than three people. I do cringe every time he says “A-lectronic”, which is kind of a lot. Story is so similar to Stargate I am waiting for it to actually BE it.
