À propos de cet audio

The starship Freedom is just a museum ship...until the aliens attack.

The starship Freedom was once a mighty warship. Today, she's a tourist attraction. The space wars ended long ago. The Freedom is now a flying museum; the tourists love it. The Changing of the Guard, the starfighter aerobatics, the starboard cannon salute...it's the best show in the galaxy.

James King commands the starship Freedom. He hates his job. He was a real soldier once, back when the Freedom was a real warship. He never imagined himself running a tourist trap. Right after Christmas, he plans to retire. Then, on Christmas day, the aliens attack. Horrifying aliens. Creatures of claws, fangs, and endless malice. Within hours, they devastate Earth's military. Millions die. So much for retirement.

The aliens spare the starship Freedom. After all, she's only a tourist attraction. But not to Commander King. He will get his beloved starship battle-ready. He will enter the fight. The Freedom will fly to war again!

Battlestar Galactica meets Starship Troopers in this sci-fi adventure from Daniel Arenson, the USA Today best-selling author of Earthrise.

Awesome Read

This book had the ships and characters of Battle Star Galactica (the re-boot) and the weird,vicious, comically pompous, self absorbed enemies of Doctor Who. Honestly this was a weird, weird mix to me. Captain Adama, Apollo and Starbuck's influence screamed through at regular, glaring intervals, more in a 'copied wikipedia for my essay but changed some words' way than in homage. The murder spiders would have been better placed in a story that included some intentional humor, the continuous gruff grimness of the story and how seriously it seemed to take itself just seemed at odds with the actual storyline. The narrator tried to create unique voices but I found the women and girl voices (and some of the accents)uncomfortable and flat. I gave this book 3stars mostly because I listened to it in its entirety and because I loved the descriptions of the ships themselves (and an honorable mention to the mini golf course). There were some really interesting concepts brought in to the story including; the ship's personal interface Memorie, Stowie, the generational connections of the characters and the unstable global political situation. The good bits weren't enough to make me want to buy book 2.

BSG+Doctor Who

It takes a bit to get into it but it is so worth it. I just finished book 3 and it gets better with each book. Great adventure, epic journey's, and the writing style paints a good picture.

Just go with it and enjoy the adventure!

Like the story was great but like we literally spent 5 hours of the book waiting for the attack to happen and in those five hours we only mere flip note of enemy interaction . It was mainly on the good guys it would have liked to see more of the. The enemy characters but overall I liked it and that the prologue Brice the main story happened had a full 38 minutes to it and it was an intense first chapter and battles were fantastic badger company holding on by a finger nail and then support a ribbed and then fight non stop for two days straight gave me starship trooper vibes. And in the final 20 minutes we a spider ship come down and about to obliterate the base but then the freedom comes and saves day it perfectly we’ll done

It was alright

Jingoistic, campy, ultra-American. Inconsistent—can,t kill the dam things unless you,re an Indian scout (marines need 10^6 bullets)

“Battleship” in space

This one was decent but I don’t think good enough for me to buy the next few books of the series, maybe if the first 3 books were free I’d get hooked into the series enough to buy in but some odd flaws and repetitiveness in the storytelling.
Overall good idea for a book I need more connection to the main characters. I feel the first interaction with the aliens was super rushed and weirdly unbelievable in how it transpired. Basic intuition was missing and basic technology use wasn’t in place at all. The rest of the book picked up, but I just don’t love the people or story enough to want to buy in. Sorry.

Good story idea

This story was so tightly packed with clichè and stereotype that it exceeded my tablet's capacity and split the case. Really.
It is an amalgamation of plot-points and characters from other stories all blended together, described and re-told in an over-the-top and far too wordy way.

I really gave it a chance

Juvenile writing, excessive repetition, unbelievable in almost every respect, crammed deadline ending. An excruciating listen.

Excruciating

I wasnt sure if it was the story itself, or the narration...but came to the conclusion its a combination of both. The narrator reads it as though it's story time in kindergarten, and the story itself could have very well been written by on of those very same children. That's a bit meaner than I want to sound, but honestly...save your time and money. There's a reason this one is a freebie on Audible.

Rather shallow...very little depth.

Mediocre story horribly ruined by progressive sociopathy. It reads like it was written by a lefty weirdo trying to tell a story about American excellence. The "target audience" appears to be young red meat eating teenage boys. But it reads like a SJW tumblr fanfic. Complete with every diversity check mark you could think of. Don't bother.

This book reads like a woke 12 year old wrote it
