About this listen

A dirty deal was struck. Humanity was allowed to keep 300 rebellious worlds. In return, we declared war on a powerful enemy from beyond the frontier.

A frantic build-up of forces has begun, but the task is hopeless. Seeking allies, Earth's legions are sent to Blood World. A planet on the fringe of known space, where the people only respect masters of combat. Earth's Legions must impress them, but other alien powers have been invited to join the contest. The prize consists of billions of loyal troops - Earth must win.

Fighting and dying and fighting again, the struggle is half-mad - but so is James McGill.

Blood World is the eighth book in the Undying Mercenaries Series.

The narration was perfect

When I didn't think this series could get any better I decided to give the the audio book version a go, and it blew me away. Mark Boyett narrating B. V. Larson's undying mercenary series has solidified this as one of my all time favourites. Looking forward to more adventures and antics from James McGill.

Rogue world

it never really has happened in any other book series that I have read and perhaps it's because I've been taken into this universe but I can laugh my socks off sometimes buy some of the things that are said I strongly recommend that you use the audible version for this book series

Protagonist is terribly annoying, morally corrupt & shamelessly selfish

I enjoy the universe but the main protagonist is so very annoyingly.

He is extremely shallow, self centered and a compulsively lier. His character development is declining instead of improving.

He character is becoming harder to like instead of the opposite. Starting to think he is a bit of a sociopath.

flawed and deflating

A poor gap filler in the series with too many errors. Feels like this was written just to fill some pages without much consideration and snapped off at the end. At times a copy and past from previous books too. Great narration though.

Protagonist is exhausting

A shallow man's libido, the book. Hoping the next book has more depth than this one.
