About this listen

Humanity's endless war and a crew of outcasts on a decommissioned warship who could change the future.

First contact with the alien "Clicks" led to a generations' long war. The Terran Federation still knows very little about the enemy.

Captain Konrad Bradley commands the decommissioned battleship Oberon, the last remaining Titan of the fleet. Mocked as a flying museum-too expensive, too cumbersome, too old-Bradley and his crew of outcasts from a long-vanished colony lead a dull life on the farthest edge of human hegemony.

Bradley's hope to go quietly into the night ends with the arrival of the legendary Strike Group 2 and the delivery of a secret so great it could end the war. That's why Lagunia was chosen for its construction.

Getting the system operational doesn't go as expected leaving Bradley and the Oberon to clean up the mess that has drawn the attention of those they hoped would never find them.

Very reminiscent of BSG

Fans of the Battlestar Galactica reboot will like this. Bit of a battlestar in all but name hero ship - I don’t mind that as I like the concept. Looking for the other 3 titles in the series to show up on audible.

Lies, and the lying liars who write book descriptions

The book description that convinced me to purchase this book is misleading at best and wholly inaccurate at worst. Outside of one chapter, the first half of this book had nothing to do with “The Last Battleship” and seemed more like a collection of short stories about people in space doing … stuff. I almost gave up at this point but instead elected to skip every chapter that wasn’t concerning fleet storylines. The book went rather fast after that and nothing skipped had any impact on following the ridiculous story in the second half.

Again, the book description as of 4/23/24 is inaccurate and wayyy oversells the Oberon plot line which is buried in a dozen others.
