Description

After saving the world many times, the Merry Band of Pirates have accepted the inevitable: Earth is doomed.

All they can do is try to bring a few thousand people to safety, before vicious aliens arrive to destroy humanity's home world. 

No. 

There is one other thing they can do: hit the enemy so hard that the aliens will regret they ever heard of humans.

Canadians do not say or use "EH like that.

As always amazing job RC Bray. the only problem is with the way the Canadian character uses Eh that's it

Also, the blooper reel was amazing.

Ending Disappointing

Great series. Great book. Lousy ending. I hate it when authors use cliffhangers to get people to build interest in the next book in a series. This one is particularly upsetting cause it leaves a major conflict and plot point up in the air. I love this series but this was so unworthy of the author. I will continue with the series but if the cliffhangers continue it will be my last.

Craig how could you!? amazing book! must listen!!

A heads up for anyone that absolutely loves this series, and hates cliff hangers: DO BUY, but wait till the next book comes out to listen. Craig Alanson leaves the book off on the craziest most nail biting
cliff hanger I have ever seen him leave us hang on T-T I WANT THE NEXT BOOK NOW!! Like, right now!

Five stars but screw you Mr Craig

Hmmm where oh where shall I start.

Well im now 100% positive skippy is Craigs alter ego, yup thats right!!!

Besides Craig being a jackass with a cliff hanger ending like that, well more like a Grand Canyon cliff hanger, this addition to the series is top notch, great plot progression blah blah haha.

The only thing that stopped me from becoming one of those social media trolls was the blooper real past the ending, lucky RC Bray saved ur ass Craig lol.

All joking aside this is an amazing addition to the series, if I could rate it 6 stars I would then I would promptly rate it back to 5 stars with that cliff hand ending.

Well played Craig.....

Worst book of the series.

Really disappointed on multiple levels. Adds literally nothing new to the series aside from “big reveals” about Skippy’s past near the very end of the book. Another cheesy cliffhanger ending too, which is becoming a trend.

Also, why does Frey now punctuate every sentence with “eh”? Traumatic brain injury sustained between conclusion of the last book and this turd?

Where did it all go wrong

I've really enjoyed this series but this feels like a drunk voicemail someone leaves their ex while they slowly devolve into a incoherent mess.


----Alert SPOILERs----

Firstly - The biggest cliff hanger ever. WHY, if your readers are 9 books in you don't need to pull that **** to get them to invest in the next book in the series. It makes for a poor ending and messes with the tempo of the next in the series as it will likely start with the deaths of some important characters in the first chapter.

Secondly - What is happening to Joe? Did skippy develop a time machine to turn him into a 10 year old! EVERY female in this book acts like his mother scolding him and he just looks at the flooring blushing while scuffing his shoes. I was under the impressing he was the commander but he has the confidence of a field mouse and why did you turn all the female characters into angry third grade teachers. Joe is the main character, but it would have been best to just put him out of his misery. You have killed his character. He no longer has any redeeming factors. Either have him grow as a character or have other characters acknowledge him for what hes done. This books acts like its his first day on the job and everyone at best tolerates his existence while everyone as well as himself blames him for earth being in danger. Really, everyone blames Joe.

Thirdly -He turns into a blubbering mess at the mention of Adams but never does anything about his feeling because of Army Policy. Really!!? He goes from screw UNIF in one chapter to what will they think of me having feelings for a subordinate. Hes confident he will be jailed at least or possibly executed upon return but is worried about regulations regarding relationships. Sounds reasonable.

Fourth - Adams. She went from being confident to turning into a teenage girl. Skippy assured her is nothing changed due to her recovery. So what happened? Time machine strikes again. She meet someone she used to have a relationship with years ago and immediately embraces him in front of everyone. Completely out of character for someone who does not show public affection. That's more than she and Joe have done in the entire series but they love each other, sure. Either have them get together or drop it, the Rachel and Ross story is pass its expiration date.

Fifth - I could have skipped this entire book besides the last 20 minutes and missed nothing. Oh no, how will we rescue these people from the lizards. Really, you have been hunting down the top species but are now worried about a couple lizards. That does not make any sense. They go from top dogs in one chapter to toddlers with water pistols in the next.

This book should be titled "Regression" as both this MBOP abilities have regressed, as well as the characters personalities.
I wish i could forget this book and imagine my own version of book 9.

Disappointing

I have gone through the whole series, but I’m regretting these last two. I enjoy the greater story, and the impeccable narration of course. But I’m so tired of the gimmicks. I can’t do this anymore. Another cliffhanger, really? I was finally getting into the story after a clumsy start. I was really glad that the story was finally progressing...
But that lasted all of an hour at the very end. I can’t recommend this; most of the actual content is just same-same, and we’ve heard the same conversations and jokes many times already. Also, the Canadian mockery is tedious; it would be great if it was well placed, but because all of the “eh”s are in awkward places it’s just cringe-y.

Anyway I suppose if you really can’t get enough of the bishop-skippy shenanigans, this book does have some. I’m moving to a fresh series.
