About this listen
Stranded light-years from home, Major Andrew Grayson and his crew are on a desperate mission to discover the Lankies’ secrets. They can’t let what they’ve found die with them.
Nine hundred light-years from home, Major Andrew Grayson and the crew of NACS Washington are marooned in a sunless system with limited water, reactor fuel, and food. The last hope for survival is to go where nothing human has gone before.
After embarking on a scouting mission to the only moon with surface signs of life, Andrew and his Special Tactics Team make two startling discoveries. One is a dream: a form of protein and plant life that could save the starving humans in the rogue system. The second is a nightmare: this harvested rock is infested with Lankies. Far from the seemingly mindless aggressors Andrew has battled for years, these show a terrifying awareness, and they have surprising secrets of their own hidden away in the darkness.
When the Lankies sense an uninvited presence in their world, Andrew’s operation becomes an expedition to hell. The odds against his small crew are stacked high. Of all the mysteries of space, how to escape with their lives is the greatest unknown of all.

“…flawlessly performed by the narrative talents of Eric G. Dove who brings this science fiction adventure come to life in a true 'theatre of the mind' experience. …strongly recommended.” (Midwest Book Review)

Brilliant
I loved this book, practically binged it. Sadly, it seems to be the end of this little series. I will miss it. Maybe we can return to this universe later with a different character. Or the next generation.

Great ride all along the way through this series
Loved every book in this series. Was nice to come in at the end of it and have all of it to read, author did a fantastic job of growing his characters, making you feel their struggles along the way.

disappointing
so so many inconsistencies, "...Mars itself blew that to hell with 25 million killed" ... "7 years and 100,000 deaths later".
ok is the last book and i still haven't introduce the lankies home work. let's us the unkown tech story line, then let's duplicate a series of highly improbable results. the book felt lazy and incomplete.
Then, let's abandon ship. ok the atmosphere is toxic, ok let's ignore that. we'll beat the lankies, um it's not like they can nerve gas everyone again...oh wait.
The ship still has power, an atmosphere, an engine oh with external weapons, that can kill lankies at range, but no the planet is a better option.
just disappointing, oh and bring back Luke Daniels

STOP BREATHING AFTER EVERY SENTENCE!!
I’ve read every book before this so this is the first one I’m doing with audible and I can’t stand it any more. This narrator isn’t good, he’s flat and there’s zero emotion but the worst thing is after each bloody sentence there’s an audible *BREATH* right into the microphone before he starts talking again. Why is this allowed? It’s so god damn annoying. Why can’t they edit it out or better yet tell him to take a breath facing away from the microphone?
It goes like this, “They came over the valley to meet us for trade*GASP* And after they started their engines to proceed*GASP*Was there any safety within the walls?*GASP*
I can’t stand it anymore

A series running out of steam.
I loved the first few books in this series, but it seems Marko has lost interest in it which is a shame.
He wrote himself into a corner with this story arc and this book and its predecessor have been an absolute snoozefest as a result.
