Publisher's Summary

A dirty deal was struck. Humanity was allowed to keep 300 rebellious worlds. In return, we declared war on a powerful enemy from beyond the frontier.

A frantic build-up of forces has begun, but the task is hopeless. Seeking allies, Earth's legions are sent to Blood World. A planet on the fringe of known space, where the people only respect masters of combat. Earth's Legions must impress them, but other alien powers have been invited to join the contest. The prize consists of billions of loyal troops - Earth must win.

Fighting and dying and fighting again, the struggle is half-mad - but so is James McGill.

Blood World is the eighth book in the Undying Mercenaries Series.

Still keeps me guessing

After 7 books of the same sex-crazed, Earth-loving, lucky sunuvabich, you'd almost expect the author to be out of ideas. And yet...

Sure, I think that there are some tired pieces in the the narrative, like officers who threaten to kill the protagonist, and end up bedding him. Every damn time. But the real story of Earth and the wars, well, I have been consistently pleased at how it develops in the background of the protagonist's own experience.

One last quibble:. is it too much to ask that Claver not show up to move the plot along?

Series still good

No spoilers here so I’ll just say that the series continues to evolve with bait for the next one.

#Audible1 Boyett and Larson - Larson and Boyett

Undying Mercenaries as narrated by Mark Boyett is like Peanut butter and Jelly, like Spaghetti and Meatballs, They just go together!!!!
The series continues and does not disappoint. The adventures of one of the luckiest man in the wor... Universe is always entertaining and seldom predictable. When is 9 coming out?

Eight books in and I'm still loving this series

B V Larson has done a great job with this series. It continues to be fun, exciting and fairly light hearted. These audio books are a fun listen. I'm certain I'll continue to snap up each book in this series with 2 trillion galaxies in the Universe there should be plenty of xxxx world books to come :-)
