Publisher's Summary

Rumors of Glory, book 1:

Humanity has colonized over 500 planets under the not-always-benevolent administration of the Federation of Planetary States via the FED Army and Navy. Longstanding grievances over economic exploitation by Earth-based companies have grown into a full-scale rebellion, and attempted secession has been tried by many of the more successful colonies. The Rebels believe a peaceful separation is possible. The FEDs believe an easy and swift military resolution is available. Both dreams of glory are shattered by the reality of a civil war that is rapidly escalating in scope and violence.

Rumors of Honor, book 2:

The interstellar civil war between the breakaway System States Union and the Federation of Planetary States continues to escalate with the help of sophisticated planning computers on both sides. Rumors of Honor is military science fiction that includes space battles, ground battles, political maneuvering, strategic deception, personal triumphs, and personal tragedies. Watch as the necessities of war force protagonists on both sides to compromise their honor.

Tried but can't get behind the voice actor

The story seems OK so far but I can't get behind the voice actor. Very little intonation and every character sounds the same with a flat tone. I put down and picked up the book 3 times and gave the actor 2hrs at a stretch just to be sure. Perhaps I'm spoilt by the likes of Marc Thompson but I've also enjoyed books by other actors and they were good (even the included ones)

I hope you like board meetings.

Or the senate sessions from the "Prequel movies". There are so many 'meetings' and discussions between two or three people, it can be difficult to follow and stay interested. I'm also not quite sure who I'm supposed to be rooting for, the Rebels or the Federation. I also don't have much investment in the characters.
The performance is decent, but not much variety between the different characters which also somewhat leads to losing track of what board meeting is taking place.
