About this listen

A message from the stars offers humanity an escape from our harsh origins deep within a region known as "Cruel Space" by the rest of the galaxy. Earth's nations unite to construct the Dauntless—Earth's first interstellar craft. Its mission: to journey to the world of Centris and establish formal contact with the enigmatic Galactic Council. Unsure of what to expect from the wider galaxy, each crewman was trained to be a peerless warrior, armed to the teeth and ready to fight for all humanity.

However, what they encounter was far from their expectations. Instead of monstrous beings, they find a galaxy dominated by... Women. Humanity's nearly equal ratio of male to female births is an anomaly. In a society where females far outnumber males, opportunities abound, from unimaginable wealth, to incredible danger, on worlds where immortality is a lifestyle choice and love is available on a scale beyond human comprehension.

On this grand cosmic stage steps Jerry Bridger with a secret mission of his own—to transport a vital piece of Earth's legacy to the stars for the future of humanity. As he navigates through amorous pirates and perilous naval engagements, Jerry will fight like hell while forming bonds in the most unexpected of places, all to forge a future in the stars.

Of Dog, Volpir and Man; a story of spacefaring adventure, high technology and higher hemlines!

Early Reviews:

"I can't believe I'm on 3 hours of sleep in the last 48 hours because of this story."
- Paddydeen, Reader

"Oh are you done reading and ready to be a human again?"

"It's like Star Trek had a baby with an unpublished Tom Clancy scifi novel, then some mad man spliced in a harem romance from the mirror universe where everyone's a mature, sensible adult and actually trying to make a multi-member marriage work for the betterment and happiness of everyone involved. It's weird. I like it!"

Great space marine exploring the wider universe.

awesome story and I can't wait for the next one. my one complaint is I would like to hear a human narrator, it was by far from the worst a.i. narrator but sometimes fell flat.

Great story I highly recommend, but virtual voice does not do it any favors

I'm rating this five stars overall despite the 1 for performance given the story itself deserves it. For the genre, this is great stuff. I'm likely not the target audience, but despite that it was a good romp. I plan to read the next books the old fashioned way, it as close as a Kindle comes to that. If Audible is the only way you can introduce yourself to Wesson's story, as was the case for me who has far more time to listen to than read a book, go for it. Just don't hold the limitations of VV against the author.

why the voice

I love the book as I've read it on Amazon and I was excited to see it on audible but I am very disappointed about the virtual voice. The voice was stilted and didn't lend itself to painting a very vivid picture while narrating. I truly hope this gets redone with an actual narrator and if possible then a duel narration.
