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
My name is Kazimir Wolfe. People call me "Kaz", except they don’t. I never use my real name; it’s too dangerous, for me and for anyone I meet. I’m on the run from the law, who think I killed my aunt, and from whoever did kill her, because they want to finish the job. So, I move around a lot, working construction or whatever job I can find. It’s a lonely life. I don’t let anyone get close...people who get close to me end up dead. Why? I’m a wizard. The world’s only wizard, as far as I know.

Story
The Wizard's Council of Tarador was supposed to tell young Koren Bladewell that he is a wizard. They were supposed to tell everyone that he is not a jinx, that all the bad things that happen around him are because he can't control the power inside him, power he doesn't know about. The people of his village, even his parents, are afraid of him, afraid he is cursed. That he is a dangerous, evil jinx.

Children are not supposed to rescue their parents, life is supposed to be the other way around. And rescues aren't supposed to be needed on the trip out to the new colony planet Valhalla. Slow, yes. Boring, yes. Dangerous? No, the trip is not supposed to be dangerous, never has been. When thieves attack the transport ship to steal an ancient alien artifact, and young Kaylee and her brother, Manny, are cut off from their parents, they have to stop the thieves from getting what they want.

The mission is simple. Escort an emissary to an intergalactic peace summit. Try not to get in the way. Lt. Magnus and his 79th Recon Team have certainly handled worse, after all. But when an explosion rocks the tower and sends everyone into a panic, Magnus and his asset find themselves cut off from the rest of the team. Worse still, a dying alien chieftain gives them a priceless drive of intel, marking them for death. The mission has officially changed. With enemies on all sides, Magnus must do everything in his power to protect the emissary and escape the tower.

From the Audie-nominated narrator of The Martian. In eleven years' time, a million members of an alien race will arrive at Earth. Years before they enter orbit, their approach will be announced by the flare of a thousand flames in the sky, their ships' huge engines burning hard to slow them from the vast speeds needed to cross interstellar space. These foreboding lights will shine in our night sky like new stars, getting ever brighter until they outshine even the sun, casting ominous shadows and banishing the night until they suddenly blink out.

Story
As a sci-fi author with a hit TV show, I have a few ideas about what alien invaders are supposed to look like. In my stories, they’re technologically advanced monsters, with tentacles, and no faces. Turns out I was right about the technology. And about how angry they’d be. But the way they look…that’s more terrifying than even I could have imagined. They look exactly like us. Because they are us.
Publisher's Summary
The human soldiers stranded on the planet Paradise have been recruited into an alien legion to do the dirty jobs that the high-tech species won't do. Their first mission is to kick the enemy off a backwater planet no one cares about. It's a simple assignment, except everyone has a hidden agenda, and the planet could become a deathtrap.

Chapter 18
Needed something to listen to (I drive trucks) and just picked this one randomly because it was book one. Glad I did. The parts describing what's happening can be a bit dry and I start to drift, but character parts pull me back in at light speed. Can't wait for book 2. Chapter 18 had me in hysterics, though. Just the random ... randomness ... was hilarious. You'll know what I mean when you hear it.

nailed it!
reading a lot of reviews of previous books in this series, the constant tripe about how the 'side story's as being boring! nope.. just another arm to this wonderful Universe. thank you for continuing this path.
love the comic wit you bring to your novels.
only down side, this part of the story finished to quick. the balance between story telling and pace still needs work.

This is a amazing divergence from the Exforce core story
This latest book by Craig is fantastic!The storyline is very clever and left me hanging out for the next installment! I highly recommend any space sci-fi genre lovers to pick up the Expeditionary Force series I have not been disappointed with any of the books I think 8 in total so far. The Mavericks as an off shoot series sounds promising and if this first book is to go by then I am very excited about what Craig has in-store! Hopefully his wife will come up with more chores like cleaning the garage out to motivate him to carry on and produce more amazing works!

Absolutely amazing
The Mavericks arc is really going somewhere and the entire story has you rethinking everything you no about the Kristang. And knowing this story is leading up to Armageddon book the ending has left me dying to read the next story and hopefully Craig Alanson has more of there story to tell and R.C Bray is amazing yet again.

Can be read as a stand alone book.
Can be read on its own however, I think reading with the Expeditionary Force helps.

Great addition
I left the main story when this book got referenced a bunch so some mild spoilers occured throughout the main story and I had to leave the main story right when it was getting interesting (questions being answered) but it was a treat to take a step back and get some gritty ontheground story telling

Great storyline
Love the rollicking story and narration. The highlight of this book for me though is the sarcastic humour delivered by all characters. Even for an Australian I could contextualise pretty much all the punchlines. The only small downside is that occasionally the description of plot background info gets a too detailed, slowing up the pace of the narrative.

Massive universe
Do I got this book because of RC Bray, the narrator. I am so glad I did. Massive universe. Finally a story where Humans get to be badass underdogs, but not the top of the pyramid. Well done and fun. I really liked the humour, for any browncoats out there, I think you'll enjoy this.
