About this listen

The battle against the Lankies has been won. Earth seems safe. Peacetime military? Not on your life.

It’s been four years since Earth threw its full military prowess against the Lanky incursion. Humanity has been yanked back from the abyss of extinction. The solar system is at peace. For now.

The future for Major Andrew Grayson of the Commonwealth Defense Corps and his wife, Halley? Flying desk duty on the front. No more nightmares of monstrous things. No more traumas to the mind and body. But when an offer comes down from above, Andrew has to make a choice: continue pushing papers into retirement, or jump right back into the fight? What’s a podhead to do?

The remaining Lankies may have retreated in fear, but the threat isn’t over. They need to be wiped out for good before they strike again. That’ll take a new offensive deployment. Aboard an Avenger warship, Andrew and the special tactics team under his command embark on the ultimate search-and-destroy mission. This time, it’ll be on Lanky turf.

No big heroics. No unnecessary risks. Just a swift hit-and-run raid in the hostile Capella system. Blow the alien seed ships into oblivion and get the hell back to Earth. At least, that’s the objective. But when does anything in war go according to plan?

New narrator no barrier to great story

I’ve been binge listening to this series and to be honest I was only a little perturbed by the narrator change. By the 5th chapter you are used to the change in nuances and voices. I didn’t find that this one dragged or was slow at all! It had unexpected twist and invigorated the series beyond just more human vs lanky.

Ho hum

I get and understand the delays in the production of the audio version of this book. (Marko explains the issues on his website) By the end of the book I wasn’t even concerned about the change in narrator.
Overall thou I feel let down by the story, it’s just not what I have become to expect from the author.

Yawn

Not as engaging as previous editions and the narration change mid series is a bit jarring.

bring back Luke Daniels

what the hell? Luke Daniels has done an awesome job narrating and you introduce this this... second rate ...

For me the series finished with points of impact. I expected better.

Did the author forget to finish the book? lack luster ending. Disappointing, do better
