Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

Two centuries after the Confederation staved off an invasion by the robotic Locusts, Captain Jack Romanoff faces mandatory retirement from an ever-shrinking navy. Actions speak louder than words. The Confederation doesn’t think the Locusts are coming back.

But what if the politicians are wrong?

Snared in a scheme he doesn’t fully understand or trust, Jack gets his promotion, but it comes with a catch. With a crew of rejects, he must restore the most powerful warship humanity has ever built, after centuries of neglect and decay, before time runs out.

If he fails, humanity might not need to worry about history repeating itself ever again.

This isn’t the first book I’ve listened to that dealt with a battleship that had become a museum, but I enjoyed this story more! It’s highly entertaining military sci-fi! The corruption and power plays hit a bit too close to home, and I hope to see justice served in this series. But more importantly, I am anxious to see what Commodore Romanoff can accomplish with his unconventional crew and a bunch of civilians, while facing more than one formidable foe and commanding a ship that’s seen its share of battle and might or might not be up to what lies ahead!

Can’t wait for the next book!!

In the first 30 minutes I did not thinkI would like it. The narrator’s range of characters seems to be EXTREMELY limited. However, after a few more minutes, the story took over and I got used to the voice(s). After listening to the entire book, the narrator kind of sounded like a cool detective, or Batman 😅.
Looking forward in continuing the series.

Surprisingly good..

Misfits brought together to do a thankless job, and the narrator is channeling Jack Webb. A fun story.

An irreverent story

Great start to a new series. Chaney never disappoints. He releases so many great books that I haven't read anyone else in months. Keep up the great work!

It waa a slow start for the first few chapters. but soon became a race to the finish trying to answer the question, "so what happens next".

a fresh take on space scifi

Great story and I can't wait for the next book to be released. It was a bit predictable at times but there are only so many ways that it could go. Good character development and solid story. Jeffrey Kafer is great as always.

I didn't want this book to end......

The situations that lead to Captain Jack Romanoff's role are entertaining and plausible. It's fun to listen as his position evolves along with his capability to influence events. He proves he's the right man for the job. I'm looking forward to getting the next book.

Fun and plausible scenario

I’m now on book nine in the series. I came back to write this review. I’m no literary critic but I know a good story when I hear one. The series includes redemption, political intrigue and multiple threads that are intertwined. The characters are well developed. There were instances when I thought too much time was spent on superfluous technical information but they were few. All in all, a very good series.

Great series!

The storyline is great but it was hard to listen to in the beginning the narrator or borrator was very monotonous in bringing the story to life. He gave each voice a different voice each time they spoke and I think a better narrator would have made this story a lot easier to listen to. Unfortunately he narrates the who series so you have to just ignore his dispassionate voice and enjoy the story.

The story starts out great from the beginning. It gets better and I’ve listened to 4 of the books so far it’s a great story.
