À propos de cet audio

She Chose the Hardest Way

The daughter of a Legion war hero, fighting was in Andien Broxin's blood. But the battles Republic marines face on strange and alien worlds are a far cry from the vaunted, brutal, no-holds-barred conflicts fought at the edge of the galaxy by the elite legionnaires.

Until a devastating war erupts right in the Republic’s stellar backyard.

Newly stationed on a mid-core planet being harassed by terrorist revolutionaries, Andien and her fellow “hullbusters” find themselves right in the middle of a desperate fight for survival. All their training, standards, discipline - all the hard paths - have led to this. If she and her fellow marines are to come out of this alive, Andien will have to find out who she truly is...and what she can become.

Best-selling military science fiction author Jason Anspach and USMC/US Army veteran Michelle C. Meyers explore the rigors of combat, survival, and the human will in this edge-of-your-seat account set in the Galaxy’s Edge universe.

great reading. story is sort of "realistic" enough (it is sci fi...) but not ridiculously full of obvious BS. reality with just enough "hey its the future" liberty taken. I hope that doesn't change in the series....

easy and entertaining

I recommend this story!
It’s a strong female MC’s story of two confrontations with insurgents and witnessing the strength of the legion’s death squad. Her perspective is interesting as Marine’s major, the characters interesting. The dumb banter (pre confrontation or during respite) that other war sci-fi story overuse to my utter contempt is gratefully kept to a minimum or alluded to but not talked/written about because she is a major which I am grateful for! I liked her gunny’s handling of the marines’ private, it was quite amusing (in a colourful drill sergeant way).

For the performance, I liked the voice of the narrator. It was a good balanced voice (not too deep/throaty or high pitched). I did not get tired listening and like her use of the scottish brogue/ accent for the death squad lieutenant.

Great sci-fi war story with strong female MC

I like where this book went . The story was good the characters were solid. I wish the book was a bit longer so more of the story could develop.

Good read

The radio communication in this book was nothing like the real military it was pretty bad. The story was ok.

Authors should learn more about the military

well-written and narrated, easy read. feels short and like it's leading to something, both of which are intentional.

The subject matter and storyline were good, but sadly let down by the narrator, she has a very irritating nasal voice and is terrible at accents-dont use that Scottish accent again!
I love this series, but not this narrator. sorry

not the best...

I enjoyed this book and the follow up. It was great to hear a military sci fi from a realistic female perspective, where she is a competent main character. The story was engaging and seemed realistic.
I’ve listened to it several times. I think the narrator is perfect for the character, who is strong, drive, and commanding.

Great story and characters

I expect something described as military sci-fi to be action-filled rather than action-sampled. This one does have a couple of samples of strong action but mostly I kept drifting off. Had to rewind several times to try to pick up the story and finally quit bothering, using it as background noise while I worked. I "think* it's supposed to be a character piece so spends most of its time describing/exploring themes of the protagonist. But idunno. Don't care enough to wade through it again and may not listen to the series now.

Tedious most of the time

Jason Anspach won me over with his amazingly well-written gritty SciFi military stories about struggles on the periphery of a Galaxy in the midst of a Civil War - after I stumbled on them in my 'Recommended For You' prompt. When I saw this story - available for free - I was thrilled.
Unfortunately, Michelle C. Meyers clearly uses Anspach's vision as merely a *setting*.. offering nothing even approaching the quality of the other author's series. She follows the frontline experiences of 'Andien Broxin' - a Republic Marine Major leading a strikingly realistic Battalion-level response to Rebel insurgents on a farflung planet. The action is cinematic when offered.. but Meyers concentrates on pinpoint accurate objective logistics, promotion procedures (I'm not kidding), and personality exposition among Legionnaire & non-Legionnaire (non-elite) soldiers. The SciFi elements feel shoehorned in and the Space Opera story dynamics of the series are largely ignored.

As to presentation: Reader Kristine Hvam makes the book even worse with an admittedly capable narration.. but exhibiting an annoying nasal timbre and weak voice-acting interpretations (her Scottish accent is genuinely execrable, for example). Audible Originals Inc. didn't *completely* drop the ball when they cast this project, but this subpar performance certainly doesn't help an "average" text.

Altogether, 'Forget Nothing' wasn't a complete waste of time, I guess. It merits 4.5 stars out of 10.
For free, it provided a serviceable distraction for a quiet afternoon.. but I removed the likewise free sequel from my Library about an hour into this recording - Meyers's riff on the 'Galaxy's Edge' universe just isn't that good.

[Incidentally: The author's obsession with perspiration is odd. "Soaked in sweat..", "Sweat poured off of them as they exercised..", "Sweat dripped off of her nose and pooled on the floor.."..
It's weirdly prominent]

Disappointing

I traditionally enjoy this genre but this was garbage. Seriously, a interstellar, multi species civilization which fought tactically with sci-fi spit polished WW2 equipment? It’s like the authors didn’t even try. Couldn’t finish
