Jeffrey Kafer
Dash never asked to be a mech pilot, but fate has other plans.
On the run and out of chances, he guides his ship and crew into the heart of a relic older than the galaxy itself - and find himself on the edge of an eternal war he never knew existed.
The relic is a mech, lost to history and forgotten by all who remain. Built by an ancient race to be the ultimate weapon, the machine is capable of unspeakable destruction, and its discovery could unhinge the balance of power throughout known space.
Worse still, the A.I. inside the machine speaks of an ancient evil that will soon arrive - a race whose power far exceeds anything humanity has ever witnessed.
Only the Messenger can stand against them, the A.I. tells its new pilot. Only you can do what must be done.

It does take a bit before we see the mech, but once it comes into the picture, things really take off.

I like the concept

But the other guys in the story seem to put up with that. Not a whole lot of mental side bar conversation right in the middle of a fight like in so many books. You ever notice that? Right in the middle of a fight, the protagonist flies into this king diatribe of this or that? I always wondered where that pause button was because I never, ever found it.
But I like the story. It’s kinda disappointing that the stories aren’t a little longer. 6 hours is kinda short. That’s like Akart style I think.
J. Kafer killed it as usual and the dude that complained he voices sound the same as a different book. Well. It’s a DIFFERENT BOOK. Dude narrates 500 books with 10 characters each so he should have 5,000 unique voices? Some dudes just gotta bitch about anything.
Anyway I think if you like mil Sci-Fi that you’ll enjoy this book and the one before it. My hesitation on book 3 isn’t if I will enjoy it, it’s just getting past that 6 hr thing. I’ll probably break down and buy it bc it’s going to get in my nerves not know how it all plays out.
Pretty dang interesting sorry.

Kafer's narration was just too overdone. He did the personalities well, but his general narration was a never-ending over-inflection of suspense. He didn't make this easier to listen to. I really wavered between three and four stars, primarily due to the narration, but gave it some grace and jumped it up.
Not Great, But Entertaining Enough As It Went On

Awesome Space Adventure

If you don't mind a really silly plot point (really...a giant humanoid mech, in space, and built by non-humanoids?), trite and well-worn bad guy stereotypes, and either don't know the difference between damping and dampening or don't care, you might just like this one. If you've listened to Jeffrey Kafer before, you already know what he adds to every book he narrates, and is probably why you're considering this book.
It's a fun story and mostly well-paced. Nothing boring or drawn out. Give it a go.
If you're looking for an audiobook, this is one.
