À propos de cet audio

A secret buried in the Antarctic. A puzzle unsolved for thousands of years.

And a Brooklyn-born master gunnery sergeant who's royally pissed that he has to babysit the researchers sent to figure it all out. Patrick "Wic" Finnegan's last op as a Marine Raider before retirement sends him to the frozen Ellsworth Subglacial Highlands. The only reason he's here? He owes a favor to an old friend, but that doesn't mean he has to like it.

When Wic finally sees what the team has uncovered, he can't believe his eyes, nor is he prepared for the violence to come. Soon, the portal opens and unleashes a storm of unbridled fury upon humanity.

From the Antarctic tundra to the streets of Manhattan, Wic and his team will be pushed to their limits as they fight to hold back Earth's ultimate threat. The odds are against them. Governments are toppling. And the Earth is falling into ruin.

Join best-selling authors Christopher Hopper and J.N. Chaney on what audiences call a "nonstop, break-neck thrill ride into metaspace". For fans of District 9, Expeditionary Force, and Galaxy's Edge, this is one military sci-fi thriller you won't be able to put down, and the official beginning to the hit series Ruins of the Galaxy.

I don’t think I have ever laughed out loud as much as I have listening to this book. “Sir Chuck” rocks!

Laughed

The story was certainly interesting and I think as a book (electronic or paper) I would have enjoyed it a bit more. The difficulty I had was that while In love RC Bray as a narrator, there is a character in this story that comes of as Extremely similar to a character he narrated in a different story. The plucky AI who banters and finds its humanity is perhaps not a unique idea, but unfortunately, the one in this book, and the other similar character RC narrates in a different series are indistinguishable from one another for me. Book felt a bit rushed but overall was enjoyable.

fast paced, interesting story

Absolutely loved it. If you enjoyed expeditionary force you'll like this. RC Bray is spot on with narration per usual.

RC Bray does it again

Funny, engaging, great performance, entertaining. Had a good time listening to this book, and am looking forward to the next one.

Good Story

Expeditionary Force like, but the story and characters are more realistic. The main protagonist especially is very well developed and is easy to like. Nothing is over the top, yet fantastical enough to be entertaining.

Good story, better performance.

Action packed story, with well-developed characters that you remember and enjoy. Looking forward to the next book in the series!

RC Bray delivers his usual awesome narration for this book!

Loved the start of this prequel series!

Liked the start, thought it was a new base for escape but then the beer can turned into a gun and Bishop grew a beard.
Again you had a start, but the snarky, jealous, brilliant and damaged beer can/gun looks like cuts from the original that got dusted off and handed to Hopper to “do something with”. Was this the editors idea?

Plot starts but falls into an old rut

I get it that the comparison to Expeditionary Force can throw you off at first. After burning through all of expeditionary force I got use to the talking gun and enjoyed this books twist on alien invasion. I enjoyed it and recomend it and I'll give the next a go. However I noticed that there are no other audio books after book 2 so hopefully so hopefully Chaney snd Hopper get that fixed.

Who doesn't have a talking gun

This book is solid scientific proof about the multiverse theory. In another dimension, the exact same plot and characters exist; somehow even the voice sounds identical. Lucky for the Ruins of the Earth, I so enjoyed the Bishop-Skippy-Bray universe, that I shall continue on in this scientific research.

I was really surprised that it was not written by Craig Alanson.
I mean a small band of Humans. led by a self deprecating military guy, Joe Bishop?, go against aliens with the help of a very smart talking gun with a British accent, Skippy?. they steal an alien ship, Flying Dutchman? and this new Skippy, now called Charles, is helping them because they treat him like a friend, where the aliens treated him like a machine.
I don't know... is it way too similar or is it just me...

Alot like Expeditionary Force. Maybe too much
