About this listen

A retired captain. An experimental starship. A war like no other.

When the research starship Galileo vanishes without a trace, the powers-that-be are quick to bury the incident, eager to prevent escalating tensions that could lead to war. As a former POW, Soren refuses to give the ship up for lost.

His daughter is one of the missing.

Taking matters into his own hands, Soren starts pulling strings and calling in favors, determined to launch a clandestine mission to bring Galileo home. When an old friend offers him a ship for the operation, he expects a rusty relic headed for the scrapyard.

Instead, he's given the Wraith—an unfinished, experimental starship with plenty of potential and just as many problems. A marvel of engineering…if his crew can keep her running.

They’d better.

Because Galileo’s disappearance is just the beginning. War is coming to the Federation from the most unlikely of places.

And Soren may be the only one who can stop it.

Wow, a pretty good performance

Normally I only play audible books while driving yo work. Most music today just doesn’t interest me. Anyway, this book caught my attention though the twist is a tired cliche. Someone is a Star Trek fan. The performance entranced me from the beginning and I finished it in two days and if you like science fiction, excellent performances, then this one will be a good audible to listen and hopefully you’ll have better self-control.

You won't believe it til you read it

The story was a fantastic look into a future of Earth and humanity spread to the stars with a past developed over time and a the creation of an uncertain future.
The performer was excellent, providing the emotion needed to immerse the listener.
Director Note; maybe don't have the performer read, He laughed then have the performer laugh. one or the other.
Note for the author: the use of the same descriptive phrases was apparent but obviously didn't deter me for continuing the story or stopping me from continuing the series.

Needs work! Lacks excitement to make me want to hear what happens next.

This story could be much better if written differently. Think about how other authors that are really good write stories like this. Cheers

Couldn't make it past first few chapters

The story was flawed almost from the beginning. We have a retired decorated starship captain who calls in favors from fleet active admirals from his past to build a cutting edge battleship so he can go and find his daughter whose ship went missing. The daughter and the ship she commanded were on a routine mission that went afoul. In what fantasy universe would a retired captain be given such a ship, no matter how illustrious his career was? Then, after aboard his ship and almost being destroyed, he releases the bridge to get some needed sleep, only to return to the bridge in his SWEATS instead of his uniform! Why, we ponder? ... because. Final straw was when we find out that the crew were so enamored with the ship and it's laid-back captain's previous exploits that they volunteered for the dangerous assignment ... WITHOUT PAY!

One of my favorite narrators, Daniel Wisniewski's, performance was okay for what little time I invested in the book but not compelling enough to convince me to continue.
