Story4.5 out of 5 stars 245
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....

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.

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.

Aliens exist...and, as it turns out, most of them aren’t that friendly. Jacob Brown wasn’t even born yet the first time they attacked Earth. He was only 14 the second time it happened. When Earth finally came together and fielded its first spaceborne military, Jacob didn’t hesitate to volunteer. Serving aboard a mighty starship, he’d be able to defend his planet - and his family - when, inevitably, they came again.

Aliens ripped a hole above Earth, arriving with a massive space station. I sorta figured we'd be enslaved to fight in their wars or exterminated for our resources. Nope. The hip-high Iglax were merchants with ugly squished faces and thick blue fur. While they weren't much to look at, they sure did have some wonderous technology.

Publisher's Summary
The Galactics arrived with their Battle Fleet in 2052. Rather than being exterminated under a barrage of hell-burners, Earth joined a vast Empire that spanned the Milky Way.
More than a century has passed since the glorious day of Earth’s annexation. Struggling to hold on to a handful of planets in the frontier provinces, humanity is at war with Rigel. After the destruction of both our fleet and theirs, a time of quiet rebuilding has begun.
James McGill was hoping for a peaceful break in the conflict, but an opportunity to gain a significant technological edge arises. He’s summoned to Central and sent off to the stars, searching for a strange planet dotted with crystalline formations. There, the vicious apex predators from Rigel manufacture their impenetrable body armor.
McGill is sent to the new planet first as an agent, then at the forefront of Legion Varus. He must face death, evil aliens, and his own untrustworthy government. Find out who lives and who gets permed in Glass World, book 13 of the Undying Mercenaries series.
With over three million copies sold, USA Today best-selling author B. V. Larson is the king of modern military science fiction.

Same great formula but frustrating at times
I do enjoy these books and enjoy watching the main character kick ass. But it's frustrating that the main character always gets the blame despite coming through impossible odds and doesn't really seem like there is ever a pay-off for him. It has begun to feel like there is no more room for any of the characters to grow.

I’m pretty sure BV Larson has never met an actual human woman but he insists on trying to write female characters. I stay with this series because it comes out when I’ve got nothing else to listen to.

Outstanding addition to the series!!!
I really enjoy this series and hope it keeps going. It's like a TV series but in book form. For me each book is like an episode. The formula works and is predictable which is a good thing for me. There are no cliffhangers in this series. The problem gets solved by the end and McGill saves the day. Just a purely fun series that I can't get enough of. Wondering what world is next!!!

You read one of these books, you've read them all
First, the overt sexism in these books is exhausting. the author obviously is partaking in a bit of wish fulfillment. mcGill's treatment of women is horrifying, and the authors writing of women is shallow and obviously his wet dream. and to top it off, the line, "flirting is a promise of future sex" had me wanting to throw my phone against the wall.
Second, The use of unacceptable words such as "retard", show a small mind not capable of compassion. and poor writing.
Third, the writing is stale. The same villains keep showing up, over and over again, doing the same thing. It is really showing a stunning lack imagination on the writer's part. Nobody grows, nobody changes, nobody learns a damned thing. Graves and Drusis are supposed to be wise, good leaders, but the allow themselves to be manipulated by stupid, greedy people who perform poorly, over and over again. And the obvious solutions are missed by everyone, but McGill. And then McGill gives these people passes because he wants to screw them. Sloppy writing indeed.
This is the last book in this series I will read. and I only got this far because they either were free or a $1.99.

I like the author and the main premise of the book but there needs to be some up side even if it’s just for a change 13 books now and it’s the same McGill saves the day and gets punished for it over and over again it get frustrating when I finish 13 if it’s still the same I’m done.

The worst of the series.
I've listened to all of the books in the series and thanks to some uncharacteristically bad character juggling this story loses all of its believability (yeah, believability is probably the wrong word for a sci-fi tale but when I have to suspend my understanding of human nature as well as science, I lose interest).

Read every book so far and THIS BOOK BOMBED.
If you like books that make zero logical sense then this is for you.. In Glass World, they take someone who has been proven a traitor to earth and put him in charge of everything even after being suspected of sabotaging the ship. There is even more of B.V Larsons classic repeating useless info and then repeating it again just so you can mentally scream get on with it already. Then there is the useless space holders of his love making with different women and how they look. Oh and the nail on the coffin is James McGill makes love with The Female clone version of the MAN that has been his enemy fo so many books. Also the whole concept that the Volbites are making the armor is poorly thought out. So they weave layers of Star dust into silk like fibers with excrement.. First how did the Volbites learn how to do so, if the Bears give them the star dust. Even so how did the bears know the bugs could do this without a synthetic system to do it firstly. And then a process so simple would be easy to study the suits and go ok layer silk, dust ect.. Also early in the book Torov makes the statement that the place where the star blew up has physics that allow the processes of the armor making to work. And that gets thrown out the window and somehow turned into the Volbites making the Armor suits.. Its like the author forgets his own path and wanders off through the woods at times searching for a new trail. Also the fact that everyone uses the exact same frazes for Mcgills bs is boring. Grade A Gorgia horseshit, Ham Handed ect. Cultural differences ect wouldn't allow for this in any setting, and if characters have different accents ect they wouldn't use speech patterns as if they all grew up in the same small town.

Great series
Awesome world building. And as much of a womanizer and liar old James McGill is, he's also brave and strangely principled, so I haven't tired of his continuing adventures. Love the narrator!

Love the series, but this one started to lose me.
With the exception of two details, I loved this book just as much as the past 12. But Winslade returned for the sole purpose of central finding out how he defected in book 12... but somehow he ends up in command and with overruling authority/access - this was to much of an oversight not to be addressed in this book, for me. The other part that bugged me, was McGill was pursuing Abigail... up until now McGill has always had a sense of conscience. But essentially looking to screw one of his arch enemies, in the female form, also didn't make sense to me. But like I said other than these two things the book was great as was all the others

Won't ever get tired of this series
I don't know what it is but McGill is hands down my favorite character of all time. The stories aren't the best in the world, but they are told in what I consider remarkably well written. This will be the 7th time I've listened to the entire series and I'll never get bored of the books.

Could This Be Time To Call It Quits?
I've loved the epic Star Force series and now the Undying Mercenaries books from the prolific B.V Larson. Glass World, the thirteenth in the series, was a book I jumped at as soon as I was aware it had been released. Note to Audible: Please email members when a new book in a series they have in their libraries becomes available, rather than the haphazard group releases notifications that often do not include such new releases.
Anyway, I was looking forward to the light and straightforward fare, that is the Undying Mercenaries series of books and Glass World did not disappoint in that regard. All the standard elements were present, so it ticked the boxes on that front. However, I am beginning to wonder if this series is reaching a dead end and perhaps ought to be concluded. I don't say this lightly, being a long time fan of the entertaining, yet dark and oddly funny series of books, but I think Larson is running short on ideas and I feel it's now starting to show.
Now, one can always argue that any series of books will always have a general theme running through it, a set of familiar elements etc. However, I feel this standard series of building blocks has pretty much run its course here by the time we get to Glass World. Larson basically is repackaging and reusing standard plot points here and it just now feels more obvious to me.
I held out some hope of a change of direction that could bring new life to this saga toward the end of this story, when our hapless hero, James McGill, was offered a career option that might have mixed things up a bit. However, Larson didn't go down that route, which I think this series of stories badly needs now.
The other thing Larson might do, is to try expanding his protagonist alien species count and give us a new threat with an intricate society and spread across distant worlds. The Skay, for me, fell flat in this regard and ere a kind of Borg from Star Trek rip off to a certain extent. The last really interesting aliens were the squids with their Blood Worlder slave culture.
Other odd points that become more glaringly obvious as the successive books come out, is the complete lack of air support for the legionnaires. Yes, I know this is supposed to be a story about the infantry, the grunt on the ground, butt even infantry need a layered method of assault that invariably entails close air support assets. So much death and destruction to our heroes could have been avoided in this story, had the soldier been able to transport into the landing zone via rapid deploy drop ships, rather than walking into obvious ambush choke points and dealing with smart mines! Further, what happened to the legion's Dragons? That walking armoured infantry vehicle heavily featured in Tech World, I think it was.
Unless some radical changes are brought about, I hate to say that I am starting to think this series has dead ended.
Glass World is still a worthwhile read, but it does not offer anything new.

One of the best
Definitely my favourite so far. A twisty storyline with genuine depth to the characters. Beautifully narrated.

Typical of the series.
The narration is as good as it always is. I am, however, beginning to feel like all the books are merging together.

Missed opportunity
Should have promoted. it is mighty lame that we can't explore what might have been if James were to have more knowledge and a bigger part in the whole scheme. F- to this one. i hope this mistake is rectified in the next book, otherwise i may drop the series.

Keep them coming B. V. Larson
I can't imagine how a 13th book in the series can still be as good as the first one.
I can only compare this to Harry Potter series, you want to keep reading the next book and hope it never ends.
