Publisher's Summary

Out of the blue, a young Space Fleet officer's dream becomes reality: He's made captain of a starship. Just in time for the return of humanity's most terrible enemy, after 50 years of peace.

To survive against this enemy, Captain Tad Thatcher will have to do more than learn how to become an effective commander, or how to wrangle his wayward crew. He will need to reinvent space combat. From scratch.

We hope you like space battles. Buckle up for Spacers, the military sci-fi series you've been waiting for. Download this six-book box set today.

Great story.. very short and unconclusive ending

Great book love reading it.. way better then any other work by this Author.. However, the ending was just not there as if the writer died while writing the ending. Perhaps he was annoyed with publishing dates.. crunch.. not sure but the end is very odd

Great but pacing can change in an instant

Really good and gets better the more you listen. only complaint is that sometimes the pacing goes from really slow to fast to slow at seemingly random moments.

Disappointing

Six books is more than enough to tell a story. This thing is going to be drawn out for at least six more. I'm not going to continue with it. The premise is already getting stale. Rose is an anchor around everyone's neck. It's inconceivable that she had any military or business experience the way she blunders through everything. She seems more like a rich brat than a heroine. She is always being rescued by the men around her.

Wtf, no ending

This was a really good series. But there is no ending at all. Not even a hint of another series to continue on.

US propaganda and typical tropes

Typical cultural Baddies and the USA saves the day. The story is too drawn out. It seems to just try link battles rather than truly develop characters.

Might not be bag if you’re not listening

This might be OK for long distance driving (so not fully paying attention) or you’re pretty young. I would not recommend it though.
