Publisher's summary

In the wake of the Solar Union’s stunning victory over the Tokomak - the masters of the galactic community - humanity has been invited to send a diplomatic mission to the Kingdom of Harmonious Order, one of the oldest and most significant races in known space. It is an opportunity that cannot be missed, a chance to forge ties with a powerful ally. And so a lone starship is dispatched to the galactic core to open discussions....

But when that starship runs into a deadly trap, she and her crew must battle their way home before they are merely the first casualties in a renewed war.

awesome

I just want to settle an asteroid in this universe. I loved the suspense. I also like the character development. The captain is definitely not the same afterwards.

Great story, cringey narration.

I've enjoyed the series thus far but the change in narrator was unwelcome. Every other sentence is delivered like a marine is looking out to sea after the Normandy landing in ww2, dramatic and full of angst.

The war is just beginning

This is a great introduction to the coming war for Earth and humanities survival. Lots of good battles and ingenious survivals. Book 5 is going to be a humdinger.

Great Book. But the narrator was lacking.

Why switch narrators in the middle of a series?!? The original narrator was awesome, the new one sounds monotone. Still was a good listen, but I miss the old narrator. I home audible releases the next book soon!

Bad choice of narrator

Why switch narrator’s in the middle of a series. For audio listeners that is equivalent to changing an author. Bad choice.

ONI is pronounced O.N.I.!!!

I enjoyed the book and Jeffery Kafer does a good job on the narration but it took me a few minutes to understand that when he was saying "oni" he was talking about the Office of Naval Intelligence! Mispronounced military terms and acronyms really take me out of the moment.

A book

This "review" is being written purely to satisfy Audible's stupid decision to require a review to rate books.

As always an incredible experience .

This author , editorship and production unit delivers if not the Best , then Better Than Most every-time . Few in this day and age in any given series can say that in My opinion .

I am excited that this series is back with Mr Kafer!

This was an excellent addition, I always enjoy Chris Nuttall books and that goes doubly so when Mr Kafer reads them!

I can’t wait for the next in the series.

ST Voyager? No, but real close.


I'd put this novel in third place, below
(1) "Lost Fleet" series by Jack Campbell and
(2) ST Voyager tv series, (but I'm a trekker)
but this was a good read/listen, and I'm thoroughly enjoying most of the series.
