Publisher's summary

An impossible enemy. A fleet surrounded.

Jain and his fleet of elite AI warships hurry to Earth's defense when an alien empire known as the Link stages an all-out attack. Though his fleet is equipped with the most powerful weapons tech ever developed, with enough firepower to raze an entire moon base, even Jain's mighty vessels prove no match for the enemy.

When unexpected allies show up, the tide seems to turn in his favor. But will it be enough?

Perhaps. The aliens were expecting to find a race of organics barely out of the stone ages.

It must have come as quite a shock when they realized they faced a budding AI Empire.

Book One of a full-length military science fiction trilogy, The Link ends in a cliffhanger. Book Two, The Alliance, is available now.

Narrator ruins the story.

I loved AI Fleet, Paul Heitsch did a fantastic job bringing the characters to life! This narrator did a horrible job continuing the storyline and the characters.

Another review stated the characters all sounded angry, I couldn’t agree more.

I couldn’t continue past the first 2 hours, and won’t be buying the 2nd and 3rd book in this trilogy.

Very sad, as I loved the Void Warriors characters.

Felt rushed

Felt rushed and to many characters introduced at one time. The story needed to be split up and the characters fleshed out more.

Book was average at best

average, not to mention the introduction of multiple groups of characters made the story harder to follow and less memorable.

Supernatural Romance Narrator Kills It

Narrator kills the series. I couldn't get past a couple of hours as the characters lose who they are in his style, everyone sounds angry and very similar. I will be asking for a refund. Could have been good...
