Publisher's summary

Part one of Robot Commandos, a thrilling new series of short read adventures that follow Takashi Hiraku and the Robot Commandos. An elite unit of augmented warriors that charge into battle supported by an army of robotic drones.

The unending war with the anarchist rebellion has spread to the planet of Thrada III. A planet the Union cannot let fall into the hands of the enemy. Takashi Hiraku is part of conscripted civilian militia tasked with reinforcing the besieged city of Harmine. But when they arrive, they find the enemy is already in control and waiting for them. It is a deadly trap, and one that will change Takashi’s life forever. It will take all his wits and fighting ability if he is to survive the terrifying battle.

Review of robot commandos

As a representative of AudioBookReviewer.com here is a review on Robot Commandos written by Todd Mcleod and Michael G. Thomas. This book has a lot of potential. The author did do a great job painting the stage with his descriptions. However, I was left feeling that this was a rough draft and one more pass through would have made the book more of a success. 
Unfortunately, there was not enough world building or character development for me to care about the protagonist or his cause. The consisted of drones, robots, Japan's style main character, and fighting on another planet to force their way of life through their armies. These combined elements echo too closely to the Tau in the Warhammer 40k universe to be a fresh idea for me. The main character was too prefect, he was always in the right for every situation. In my opinion, lacking flaws makes for a less believable character. 
This was the first try at narration by the narrator, Toby Kinzer.  The impression I had was that he had not connected with the story or the characters.  It is clear that Kinzer is learning to fine tune his talent and will improve with each narration.
Editing and production was poor. The narrator sounded like he was talking into a tin can. Along with that the editing transitions were very noticeable and had repeating sentences.  This book has the potential to be much better but given the stated issues, it needs work.
