À propos de cet audio
Beginning a New Series by a New York Times Best-Selling Author.Will the People of Earth Bow Down toAlien Overlords—or Will They Live Free or Die?
First Contact Was Friendly
When aliens trundled a gate to other worlds into the solar system, the world reacted with awe, hope and fear. But the first aliens to come through, the Glatun, were peaceful traders and the world breathed a sigh of relief.
Who Controls the Orbitals, Controls the World
When the Horvath came through, they announced their ownership by dropping rocks on three cities and gutting them. Since then, they've held Terra as their own personal fiefdom. With their control of the orbitals, there's no way to win and earth's governments have accepted the status quo.
Live Free or Die
To free the world from the grip of the Horvath is going to take an unlikely hero. A hero unwilling to back down to alien or human governments, unwilling to live in slavery and with enough hubris, if not stature, to think he can win. Fortunately, there's Tyler Vernon. And he has bigger plans than just getting rid of the Horvath.
Troy Rising is a book in three parts—Live Free or Die being the first part—detailing the freeing of earth from alien conquerors, the first steps into space using off-world technologies and the creation of Troy, a thousand trillion ton battlestation designed to secure the solar system.

Great
John Ringo has a knack for strategy and survival.
if you like his Black Tide Rising zombie series, you will love this space war series.

Not compelling enough to read the next in the series
This is a strange book. It starts off quirky. You start to believe it’s a sci-fi comedy. Then it oddly turns serious. Then it tries to become a sci-fi military story.
. In addition to the author’s inability to find an even tone there are unusual racial and social elements thrown in. Government is completely inept and bad. Racial diversity is bad. Wiping out a good portion of civilization, especially ipeople of colour is good. These elements jump out because they seem to be more the author’s viewpoint thrust into the story instead of a believable element arising within the story.
In the end the story was too quirky, uneven with overtones of racism, population control and anti government sentiment for me to desire to read the next book in the series.

Not action driven military SF
You you may assume from the title that this is hardcore shoot em up military SF. It’s not. There are hours of discussions about the physics and economics of expanding industry into space in order to build space defence systems but The battles are summarized in a few minuets. For example, the Horvath destroyed 3 cities. Or, the array quickly destroyed the Horvath ship. Then back to hours of economics, metallurgy, and physics. Don’t get me wrong, I really enjoyed the book and plan to continue the series but it is NOT intense space military SF. If your looking for that get into Hell Divers or Expeditionary Force.

wanna be atlas shrugged
was a good sci fi story until the writer shoe horned all their politics into the narrative; including a tirade on why the american civil war wasnt about slavery but the south not getting fair trade deals.

Excellent
As an engineer, I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
It shares some similarities with the Bobiverse books.
Other reviews mention the politics of the main character but don't let that dissuade you as it's a minor part of the story.

Painful
Feels like it's trying to be an intelligent Sci Fi but misses the mark, the premise is interesting but the characters all seem to share 2 brain cells between them except our protagonist making him seem like the smartest average guy in the Galaxy.
