About this listen
A New York Times bestseller! In the first of three official tie-in novels to the hugely successful videogame from Microsoft and Epic Games, the last human survivors of a vicious alien attack fight a pivotal battle for the fate of mankind.
As kids, the three of them were inseparable; as soldiers, they would be torn apart. Marcus Fenix and Dominic Santiago fought alongside Dom’s elder brother Carlos at Aspho Fields in the epic battle that changed the course of the Pendulum Wars. There’s a new war to fight now, a war for mankind’s very survival. But while the last human stronghold on Sera braces itself for another onslaught from the Locust Horde, ghosts come back to haunt Marcus and Dom. For Marcus—decorated war hero, convicted traitor—the return of an old comrade threatens to dredge up an agonizing secret he’s sworn to keep.
As the beleaguered Gears of the Coalition of Ordered Governments take a last stand to save mankind from extermination, the harrowing decisions made at Aspho Fields have to be relived and made again. Marcus and Dom can take anything the Locust Horde throws at them—but will their friendship survive the truth about Carlos Santiago?

Fantastic book! Not my first choice of narrator
I love this book it’s so well written and dose a fantastic job at bringing to life the characters of gears of war.
My only gripe is the narrator, she dose a pretty good job at it and dose not take away from the book. But she dose not stand up to the previous narrator David Colacci his vice was rough and deep and worked so so so well in the gears universe.

Sadly let down by the performance
Nan is a great performer, but this series really isn't for her. At least not if you've played the games. Marcus in particular needs a certain vocal performance that wasn't delivered here.

Great story, average narrator
Unfortunately, the narrator was not the best choice for reading a great classic Gears book. The original audiobooks had a better performance from another narrator that I can't understand why his performance wasn't used. I still have my audiobook of The Slab and it is miles ahead of McNamara has done.

had to get a refund
I love the Gears of war games and the story, but sadly i couldn't listen to this book as the voice actor was not bad but was not the right pick of this book, knowing the story and the characters, this really needs to be voiced buy a bloke or with several voices
