Publisher's summary

Deep in blackest space, the Drasin have watched humanity's journey to the stars—and determined that a species as barbaric as ours has no place in the cosmos.

The wreckage of the starship Odyssey, once Earth's greatest guardian, lies strewn across New York City. Abandoned by all but its captain, Odyssey's sacrifice covered the withdrawal of countless troops as the Drasin assault ravaged the planet. When Captain Eric Weston finally emerges from the rubble, impossibly alive thanks to the mysterious "Gaia", he knows with the Drasin it's kill or be killed.

But not all of the heavens have proven hostile. The Priminae have felt the full brunt of Drasin aggression on their own home world, and they won't leave humanity to face annihilation alone. Together with what's left of the crews of the Odyssey and other starships, they race to join Weston and his group of Earth-bound survivors for a desperate last stand.

The final battle of the Drasin War brings bestselling author Evan Currie's Odyssey One series to its shattering conclusion.

I loved this story. I enjoyed the first books in this series almost as much as the Empire of Bones series and the Honor Harrington series.

I can't get enough of this series. Each book for me at least is a home run after another.

Captain Weston Kicking ass and taking names !

The best so far.I liked also the previous narrator, it takes just a little while to get used to a more energetic narration,but it is perfect for this book,excellent story with pretty interesting technological weaponry ideas, a lot of action,i m not a scientist but the author seems to have done his homework on gravitational breaking and other things i learned. excellent audiobook !

the narrator was a very poor choice.

the guy they chose for the job of telling this story was a epic fail. his accents take you out of the story and make it hard to listen. most of them are cheap examples of the types. new yorker, Texan, heavy gruff guy, and so forth. I don't mind accents but not at the expense of crashing the story. if this were MY book I would pay the expense to get another reading with a narrator that diddent remind me of a cheesy uncle reading me a bedtime story drunk with a mouth full of wet grapes.
