Story
In the 20th century Earth sent probes, transmissions, and welcoming messages to the stars. Unfortunately, someone noticed. The Galactics arrived with their battle fleet in 2052. Rather than being exterminated under a barrage of hell-burners, Earth joined their vast Empire. Swearing allegiance to our distant alien overlords wasn't the only requirement for survival. We also had to have something of value to trade, something that neighboring planets would pay their hard-earned credits to buy. As most of the local worlds were too civilized to have a proper army, the only valuable service Earth could provide came in the form of soldiers....

They hunt us. They bomb our worlds for target practice. A star cluster in the constellation of Orion rotates once every 1,000 years. Those who rule there have an ancient tradition: When each cycle ends, they train their fleets by spilling the blood of lesser beings. The enemy fleets are coming again. In response, the Rebel Worlds gather their starships to face the terrifying threat, and this time humanity is asked to stand with them. The last time they considered Earth, Vikings in longboats were raiding English coastlines. Today, we're less primitive. Today, we're a target.

We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

Publisher's Summary
In a twist of fate that rocks the Galactic Empire, James McGill finds himself negotiating the future of a thousand inhabited worlds.
An artificial object made of compressed stardust is barreling toward Earth. Is it an invasion ship? A doomsday weapon? Perhaps it’s the final response of Squanto, the Warlord of Rigel who McGill has repeatedly humiliated. Or could it be from the Mogwa, sent to avenge McGill’s assassination of Earth’s Imperial Governor?
No one knows the truth of its origins, but the object is huge and unstoppable. Whoever hurled this rock at us isn’t answering our calls. Every weapon bounces off, and the people of Earth begin to go mad as they realize their destruction is only hours away.
Armor World is the 11th book of the Undying Mercenaries series. With over three million copies sold, author B. V. Larson is the king of modern military science fiction.

Story Arc rinse and repay
I feel like this book could’ve been several chapters in a better story. Although I’ve been pretty loyal to the series, this was so dry and predictable. It echoed too closely so many of the previous books. I think this will be my last one.

Slipping
After keeping it fresh and moving in unexpected directions in the past couple books, this one seems to go back to the comfortable harbor of the first few books. Sometimes that can be okay, but here, after so many books, it feels like a step back.
I felt my suspension of disbelief was a little abused, and Mary Sue McGill was in full effect. The relationships in the series have been great at developing naturally and I like that for once the book didn't lean on the usual crutch of villain's exposition to info dump everything.
I also feel there was a missed opportunity to explore a couple truly alien environments.
All in all, a mediocre entry into the series.

More of the same
although enjoyable enough and solid as far as another entry is concerned, I couldn't have been more disappointed by the end. What started out feeling like an attempt to invigorate a slowing story and round out flat characters for 20 chapters quickly devolved into endless sexcapades, Mary Sue levels of plot convince from our favorite big balled plot pushing he-man... and still a level of casual ablism that just feels out of place coming from the insanely talented voice.
Idk if you read these Larson, but if you are, don't feel like I'm calling this novel bad, I have simply read enough of your work to know it can shine past the grime. All I want, is a quiet end to the use of 'retarded' cause it isn't the 90s anymore and you ain't the black eyed peas... and for James to be cheated on or turned down or somehow slapped by karma for his womanizing .. I don't mind a womanizing character, but since where where the women signing up to fight and die the type to sniffle and run away when cheated on? You show you can write realistic women, now have James fuck one.

same as every other book in the series
this is where I get off of the series. I am sick and tired of the same book. the main character McGill is a womanizer and somehow gets out of trouble that would be a court-martial and death sentence in real world. BV Larson calls every female girl in this book and it's very annoying no. I could see that in the first one or two books in the series, however we are in the 11th book in the series and he still calling females girls. it's predictable as soon as McGill meets a female he says come on girl oar hey girl. when he's getting chewed out by his superiors he always well hold on a minute or come on now and then come up with some excuse that would cause you to be busted down to private if not jailed. I understand this is supposed to be futuristic but the basic lack of understanding of military life is sad. BV Larson also repeats himself many many many times to get his word count up. he'll give us a summary of something that just happened or give us summary of something that happened in another book several times to get that workout up.

Repetitive themes. Predictable. Unimaginative.
For many hours into the story I was comfortable just letting my mind wander. Truly and underwhelming story. It’s high time this series came to an end if the author is just going to use repetitive themes with a different plot device. No mating ritual with aliens for our illustrious protagonist this time, so that’s a blessing.

Erm...Not so sure, but it gets a kind of vote
I've loved the entire series. I have all 11 in the series, this is the first one however that kinda doesn't really go anywhere. It isn't clear why the new alien race they've discovered is here, it's a case of one minute earth is chilled, the next minute all hell breaks loose, then there's a dome, then peg-51, then not peg-51, then machines, then swamp, then James and his GF doing the nasty, and end of book. Dare I say this book feels a bit limp compared to the 10 before it. Anyway, I remain committed, I look forward to a much more meaty book 12.

Deep story and character development. James has never been more complete. Love the story. His rash decisions have never been so backed by experience like this before, it’s a great way of making him seem more brilliant then lucky. After all he has dozens of deaths under his belt. Nice to see the fruits.

Terrible
So many examples of ridiculous plot and character turns. I’ll only mention the one that pisses me off the most: Turov. She is a character that at this point in the story makes no sense. She is the highest ranking member of Varus, despite being a confirmed traitor to earth on multiple occasions. If that wasnt bad enough, she is completely and utterly incompetent (even the idiotic main character admits this) and yet somehow she keeps being put in high positions of power. The last scene where the idiot main character defends her from arrest is just too much to bear.
By the way every female character except for one exist only for the main character to have sex with (or to get jealous of other female characters he is currently having sex with).

Getting tedious
I keep hoping that the main character grows a little bit and maybe there's an underlying story developing in the background. But that doesn't seem to be the case. Each book has him trying to sleep with every woman he meets. He constantly lies, disobeys orders, and somehow saves the day at the end with no real punishment.
I enjoy sci-fi so I'm willing to believe the impossible, but not the improbable. There are a few characters, McGill included that somehow remain in positions of authority even after they've done almost treasonous things as well as a general ineptitude as commanders. In the military and civilian life people like that are generally pushed out not promoted.
