Publisher's summary

For two decades he served...and never questioned the orders. Would one act of mercy cost him?

Alistair believed in the work. It was important to stop the rebels for the good of the Commonwealth. Over his career he’d become the greatest Titan the Corp had ever seen. It was a simple mission. Then the rebels said one thing...and Alistair’s life changed forever. For 10 generations his family had ruled. Alexander’s 30-years as Emperor had been peaceful, but only because he didn’t tolerate dissent. The only thing worse than a rebel was a disloyal Titan. Alistair must die.

In a battle of good vs. evil, the stakes have never been higher. How will Alistair escape? You’ll love this first book in The Great Insurrection series, because this military science fiction will keep you hungry for the next word. Get it now.

Long Live Prometheus!

This was a really great listen. Absolutely brilliant world building, bringing democracy into question is a tantalizing idea. Such a young system being trampled and replaced with the ways of the old in a futuristic society - it’s a hell of a twist! Thank you! Definitely will be listening to the rest of this series!

Great beginning for this series..

So, I don't know why Alexander wants Alistair Kane dead so badly BUT the fact that Alexander is sending his Titans across the universe to kill him tells me something. It certainly isn't because Alistair escaped when they were sent to kill one of their own. Alistair was the #1 Titan and suddenly they want him dead? I can't wait to get to the next book.

No romance and the F-bomb was used 13 times.

As for the narration: John Skelley did a fabulous job.

Not at all what I expected…

I pushed back this series for so long and kind of regret it. But at the same time, I’m glad I did since I can listen to it instead. I appreciate the author and LMBPN for releasing these stories they bring us.
This series is definitely dark but there is also a small light that calls to you. My heart goes out to the author and all the loss he suffered and endured right when he was releasing his new series. I tip my head to you man, for being able to still shape this story and their amazing characters!

Nope

I'm halfway into this book and it's been a slog. I have so many questions and the book keeps making me ask more. Other reviews said it was interesting but I'm failing to see how. We haven't been given any context about what anything is, terms haven't been defined, and it's not clear why anything is or has happened.

Some vague dialogue has been deliver that hints we might get a reason to care about what's been happened over the last four hours. Perhaps this is a series that takes place inside another series? I want to ask more questions here but the might be spoilers. It's been one action sequence and something like three and a half hours of dialogue that hasn't lead to anything.

Possible spoilers.
We have the impression Titans are better than humans. Humans hate mutants for some reason, but mutants seem to be better than Titans.
Mutants are created somehow. So why do Mutants exist if they have to be created? Why don't the mutants take over Earth rather than somehow living on Pluto. If Earth hates mutants so much, they know the mutants live on Pluto, and Earth has mutants around Pluto, why does Pluto still exist?

The book is following someone we are told isn't the MC, it's a story about how something lead to things(the whole books has essentially been this vague). After we are told the MC isn't the MC, the book continues following our not MC that is the MC.

way to much pre existing power thats not explained

i got about an hour into this and its just a bunch of words i dont understand the context to and its all just flying by. with books that start at the bottom you get everything explained to you and, you get the sense of power there working with and their moves and equipment, this isnt that, if you like that style of book give it a shot but this is not for me.
