A great Sci-fi!

Terry Mixon has crafted an excellent story in an interesting setting. I find myself wanting to find out more about it and it's history.

This is the first book of this series I have listened to and I did not feel like I was lacking any needed information. It is so good that I am going to go back and get the first two books to find out what I have missed.

I have to say I love the cast of characters they are well written, interesting and well voiced. Veronica Giguere does a great job given each character a unique voice, they enhance they experience pulling you into the unfolding events.

The battles are well written, fast paced and not bogged down by endless details and tech specs. The personal combat is in my option better written than space combat.

If you are into books only for very detailed space battles you may be a little disappointed with this one as it focus much more on the characters reactions to the battles and not what happens to every shot or how many mm of armour are lost on what hull frame to a laser beam.

If little things like sleep did not get in the way I would have listened to all the books in this series back to back.

A great book that I recommend anyone interested in good character driven Sci-Fi should listen to. I will be listing to this book again.

If you haven’t read book 1 and 2 then this WILL have spoilers but just know that this series is awesome and 100% worth your time !

Princess Kelsey Bandar and her half brother Jerad (or so they thought) have seen a lot over the last two books from Kelsey finding out that she is not her farther's biological daughter to her twin Brother trying to assassinate Jerad from half a galaxy away.Oh yeah they are also stuck in a part of the old Empire half a galaxy away with no way home ! No biggy .They got this way from setting out on an exploratory mission with Jerad in charge and Kelsey going along as an ambassador on his ship Athena .They went through a weak flip point ( sort of like a designated worm hole sort of thing I think.Its sort of like a stargate for all my fellow SG1 fans.Their being stuck and unable to get home is reminiscent of Stargate Universe actually but this series is original and very intricate .
Expect new discoveries in tech ,new and old friends and “Friends” . A discorvery of genetics that I believe will follow on in to the next book( i hope so any way)Kelsey is just 90lb of awesome a super strong(not just physically) female lead and somebody I think a lot of people listening or reading will seriously look up to and enjoy.Jerad and Kelsey have to deal with fleet members from home and bring them up to speed on the situation.lets just say it is'nt smooth sailing....flying ...orbiting? they are in here here's a bit about Terry Mixon. He served as a non-commissioned officer in the United States Army 101st Airborne Division. He also worked alongside the flight controllers in the Mission Control Center at the NASA Johnson Space Center for almost two decades, supporting the Space Shuttle program, the International Space Station, and other human spaceflight projects during his tenure there.so think of all of that experience joined with a truly awesome imagination and a nack for top rate creative writing .them we have this series I am jumping straight on to book 4!
Veronica Giguere the microphone maestro continues to do her thing and I grow more in awe of her talents as a narrator with every passing word I hear from her. She's on top form with this performance and I really get the impression that she has particularly enjoyed reading this series so far.I received this title for free in exchange for an unbiased review.I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.I was given book 3 and 4 and then bought books 1 and 2 because starting a series on book 3 would be rather confusing but I would happily have bought all 4 knowing how good these books are.
