Story
In the 20th century Earth sent probes, transmissions, and welcoming messages to the stars. Unfortunately, someone noticed. The Galactics arrived with their battle fleet in 2052. Rather than being exterminated under a barrage of hell-burners, Earth joined their vast Empire. Swearing allegiance to our distant alien overlords wasn't the only requirement for survival. We also had to have something of value to trade, something that neighboring planets would pay their hard-earned credits to buy. As most of the local worlds were too civilized to have a proper army, the only valuable service Earth could provide came in the form of soldiers....

For centuries, mankind has searched for nonhuman civilizations in the cosmos. These lost alien societies have finally been discovered—but they were destroyed long ago. Devin Starn starts off as a lowly rock rat aboard Borag, a mining ship working the dangerous end of the asteroid belt. Slowly, he gains prestige and purpose. When an alien base is uncovered, however, he must risk everything to protect his ship and her crew. What wiped out all the civilizations that came before humanity?

Story
We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

Story
When Van Tudor returns to his childhood home, he inherits more than the family farm. His grandfather used to tell him fantastic stories of spacemen and monsters, princesses and galactic knights. Little did Van realize, the old man's tales were more than fiction; they were real. Hidden beneath the old barn, Van’s legacy is waiting: a starship, not of this world. With his combat AI, an android bird named Perry, Van takes his first steps into the wider galaxy. He soon finds that space is far busier and more dangerous than he could have ever conceived.

Can't get enough!
You'd think by book 18 in a series you would have heard it all... Well you would be very wrong. Everytime I see that a new book has come out in this series I have to quit plans of socialising for a few days and go for some long drives and listen constantly! this one was no exception. Great work as always!

good set up for next book
while I have listened to all the other books and found them fun and enjoyable with a few twist and turns. I felt this one was pushed out with a deadline and no real meat and interesting set up for the next book but rather silly story this time. little disappointed nothing seemed fleshed out

Enjoyable but like eating candy for dinner
This storyline was okay the whole chase by the Skay was fun and a few other bits but the books in the series are starting to feel tired with predictable characters and outcomes. I mean so of the characters have been in the same role for decades now with the same complaints, don't they grow as people? Surely the author doesn't expect us to believe that James McGill is dumb as a dog turd? I mean how can he be that clueless, it is starting to spoil the storyline. I thought the author was insinuating that James was getting tired of being treated the same way and was starting to rebel against the empire and the system and that he was going to start working as an assassin or spec ops for the government doing specialised missions to fight against the Empire but that seems to have gone nowhere.
It feels like eating sugar for each meal, after a while you get bored with it and crave steak.
