About this listen

Mutiny

For Lt. Commander Colin Maclntyre, it began as a routine training flight over the moon. For Dahak, a self-aware Imperial battleship, it began millennia ago when that powerful artificial intelligence underwent a mutiny in the face of the enemy. The mutiny was never resolved - Dahak was forced to maroon not just the mutineers but the entire crew on prehistoric Earth.

Dahak has been helplessly waiting as the descendants of the loyal crew regressed while the mutineers maintained control of technology that kept them alive as the millennia passed. But now Dahak’s sensors indicate that the enemy that devastated the Imperium so long ago has returned - and Earth is in their path. For the sake of the planet, Dahak must mobilize its defenses. And that it cannot do until the mutineers are put down. So Dahak has picked Colin Maclntyre to be its new captain. Now Maclntyre must mobilize humanity to destroy the mutineers once and for all - or Earth will become a cinder in the path of galactic conquest.

I read this as a kid while there was a Russia. Lots of fun and I enjoyed the story. Lots of fun. Still not sure what it would like to have no moon in the sky.

Good but aged story. Still worth it

Great depth and complexity in this narrative. An interesting plot unravels in this excellent piece of Sci-fi writing. A well narrated audiobook. Definitely worth a listen.

Excellent

The reading has some abrupt cuts to re-recorded bits which sound so different it's jarring, some gaps are missing making it hard to know which character it's supposed to be currently speaking, plus the occasional odd pronunciations (is 'al-ees' acceptable for "allies"?).
The story itself is good, so it's a shame the reading/editing lets it down a bit, although the reader himself does a generally good job.

Interesting, but some odd pronunciations, lack of gap between sentences

I've read the paperback so many times that when I read it I skip over whole sections of the text. Listening to it was like hearing the story anew, for every detail was enunciated, even the author's spelling errors, which caused the odd chuckle. Even now, I stare up at the moon, in wonder and wish.

An old favourite, read delightfully well
